Closer to Home

Today was a walk about our neighborhood day.

Our Neighborhood

There is not much to our neighborhood on Plubphueng Soi Alley.

At the top of the alley is the Dome hotel that offers daily and longer term rates.

Right next to us is another newly constructed condo similar to the Pansook Urban Condo called the Luxury Huay Kaew.

Across the street from the Luxury Huay Kaew, is PJ's place.  This is a guest house that appears to be the most serene of all the accommodations in the neighborhood.  Peter, the owner, speaks excellent English.

A bit down the street is the Sakulchai Place. This appears to be a very nice, long term stay accommodation, but we think they have only studio or one-bedroom apartments.

Continuing down the alley and around the bend there is the Pingnakorn Hotel.  This is an upscale hotel that offers only daily rates.

There is another upscale hotel, right next to the Pingnakorn, under construction (as of Feb 2017).

There is also a small store called Morning Laundry that offers laundry services.

Overall, if you are making your first visit to Chiang Mai, these accommodations are well situated in the city proper.

All accommodations are a short walk from the upscale Maya shopping center or the more local Thai shopping center of Kad Suan Kaew. There are plenty of food courts at both of these shopping centers as well as more upscale restaurants.

Most importantly, since all the accommodations are on an alley, one is spared the traffic noise from the busy main road of Huay Kaew.

Travel Tips
