About

Thapae Loft

Thapae Loft sits on Ratchapakinai Road, in the old city of Chiang Mai. The hotel's industrial design — exposed concrete, vintage touches, a VW bar — sets it apart from the area's more traditional guesthouses. It's a 5-minute walk from the Chiang Mai Women Correctional Institution Vocational Training Center, and close to cafes, restaurants, and the Sunday Walking Street.

Rooms are modern and spotless, with air conditioning, tea and coffee facilities, and flat-screen TVs. The Deluxe Family Room sleeps up to four, making it a practical base for families. The hotel also offers a saltwater pool, a garden area, and complimentary bikes for guests. Staff are consistently praised for their helpfulness, and the 24-hour reception and security add peace of mind.
