Frommer's Review

The earliest address of note for foreigners in Chiang Mai, the Montri is still a convenient, inexpensive location just inside the Old City -- and across from Thapae Gate -- however, it doesn't offer much in the way of charm. Dark parquet floors are standard throughout, and bathrooms are shower-in-room style. Newly renovated rooms with built-in cabinets try to be attractive, but merely pass as comfortable. Their main advantage is that they are a good value. Note: Ask for a room at the rear; you'll get more peace and quiet, and from the higher floors you can see the outline of Doi Suthep.

Facilities:
Restaurant; tour desk; small business center; laundry service; nonsmoking rooms

Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
