I stayed at Baan Kaew with 2 girlfriends and we had a great time! Our total length of stay was 5 days in this guesthouse so we got to know the staff and some of the other patrons, which made our stay that much more enjoyable! The rooms were clean, they are not anything fancy, however good value for the... More

First, this is not a terrible hotel. For 600 thb a night it is hard to be too critical. The rooms were 3 star clean and the staff were for the most part friendly. For the bad, the location of this hotel is very isolated. If you are used to staying in Thailand and having plenty of 7-11s, restaurants, food... More

A cute little hideaway in a perfect location. The gardens make you feel like you are outside of the city and not so close to everything, but that soon changes when you walk up the driveway. We used this place to dump our bags so that we could get out and explore - with the added bonus of friendly staff... More

I stayed here in March 2011, and headaches kept popping up: there was very low water pressure (translation: you need 30 minutes to take a shower), the TV repeatedly failed, the Wi-Fi repeatedly went down for more than an hour at a time, and my laundry came back unwashed. Finally, when I went to check out, they felt it was... More

Baan Kaew would have to be the pick of guesthouses on the east side of the old city; set well back from the road, entering feels like retreating to an oasis from the cacophony of the surrounding urban Thai streetscape. Beds, rooms and facilities are comfortable and clean, and staff are courteous and helpful. The style and setting of the... More

This is a lovely guest house in a nice quiet road of Chiang Mai. The garden is beautiful and there are benches outside your room so that you can sit outside and relax and star gaze etc. Only complaint is that the bathrooms have fitted nets instead of glass windows and on one evening two rooms away some couple got...

We were at Baan Kaew only for one night but it was New Years Eve. It was a nice comfortable place. We gave them some laundry and got it back the same day which was great.

Hidden away close to town centre, clean, comfortable. Staff are superb, they comforted my wife during a sick period. Arranged guides and gave lots of help and information. We will be back. Ask for Sams Tours, he is excellent.

We've stayed at the Baan Kaew several times over the past ten years and it never dissappoints. It's a perfect place to stay when in Chiang Mai. It's very clean, comfortable, safe and very reasonable. We enjoyed spending time on the balcony overlooking the courtyard - a perfect place to relax and unwind! It's located in a nice quiet area... More
