About

Sumittaya Chiangmai Hotel

Sumittaya Chiangmai Hotel sits on Ratchapakhinai Road, inside Chiang Mai's Old Town district. The property is a straightforward 3-star operation that leans on location and service rather than frills. Guests are about a 20-minute walk from Mueang Mai Market, and many of the city's central attractions are reachable on foot.

The hotel keeps things simple: air-conditioned rooms with flat-screen TVs, mini-bars, and electric kettles, plus free Wi-Fi throughout. A 24-hour reception and security, luggage storage, and a lift cover the practical side. There's parking on site, though the narrow Soi roads of the Old City can make driving less appealing than walking.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

3 reasons to book
  • Staff consistently praised — Guests repeatedly mention friendly, helpful, and accommodating staff, with several noting strong English skills.
  • Central Old City location — Walking distance to temples, restaurants, bars, and attractions like Tha Phae Gate. Still quiet enough for a good night's sleep.
  • Breakfast exceeds expectations — A spread that includes both Western and Thai dishes, often described as a pleasant surprise for a 3-star hotel.

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Room rating is the weakest category — Rooms score 8.0, below the overall hotel rating. While guests call them clean and comfortable, they're not standout luxury.
  • No pets allowed — If you're travelling with an animal, this isn't the place — the policy is a firm no.
  • Limited on-site facilities — There's no gym, pool, or spa — just a restaurant and basic services like laundry (available via staff) and car hire. For some, this is fine; for others, it's a miss.

“Excellent location and helpful staff. Breakfast was a nice surprise with more options than expected. The room was quiet and had a firm bed, which might suit some guests. The hotel is close to the central area but just outside, so you get a good night's sleep and easy access to attractions on foot. Staff were very accommodating and friendly, with good English.”

04 — Location

Getting around Chiang Mai

The property sits in Chiang Mai.

Old City: You're inside the moat, so most of Chiang Mai's historic temples and lanes are on foot. Tha Phae Gate is a short walk, and Warorot Market is also reachable on foot, per guest reviews.

Nightlife: The hotel sits next to the well-known 'Zoe in the Yellow' bar, so if you want late-night music and crowds, it's outside your door. Guests note that the rooms stay quiet despite this.

Markets: Mueang Mai Market is about a 20-minute walk away, and guests mention easy walking access to Warorot Market for local goods.
