About

Madera House Chiang Mai

Madera House Chiang Mai is a modest guest house on Sri Poom Road Lane 1, in the middle of the old city. It's a 9-minute walk from the Chiang Mai City Arts and Cultural Centre and a short walk from Tha Phae Gate, making it a convenient base for exploring the historic quarter. The building keeps to a simple, unfussy style, with a terrace that looks out over the street.

Rooms here are practical rather than lavish: each comes with air conditioning, a flat-screen TV, and a private bathroom with free toiletries. King beds are standard across the two room types. The guest house operates without much ceremony, which suits travellers passing through for a night or two. The Sunday market is essentially on the doorstep, and the central location means most of Old Town's sights are within an easy walk.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

4 reasons to book
  • Prime Old Town location — Madera House sits on Sri Poom Road Lane 1, a 9-minute walk from the Chiang Mai City Arts and Cultural Centre and a short walk from Tha Phae Gate. Guests repeatedly call the location the best part of the stay.
  • Sunday market on the doorstep — The famous Sunday market runs right outside, making it effortless to dip in and out. Several reviews highlight this as a standout feature.
  • Comfortable, well-equipped rooms — Rooms come with air conditioning, flat-screen TV, free toiletries, and private bathrooms. Some also have a balcony or patio, which guests appreciated for street views and fresh air.
  • Easy check-in and working aircon — Multiple reviews mention the straightforward check-in process and that the air conditioning worked perfectly, which is a practical plus in a warm climate.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Value score trails other categories — The value rating sits at 6.7, below the general average of 8.1. Some guests felt the price, particularly one who paid GBP 366, didn't fully match what was on offer.
  • Rooms score is modest — The rooms category scored 7.1, the lowest alongside value. Reviews are mixed on room comfort – some loving the decor, others finding faults.
  • Street noise possible — The balcony overlooks a busy street, and while guests enjoy the view, the central location means traffic and market sounds may carry into rooms.
  • No parking or pets — There is no parking listed, and pets are not allowed. For travellers with a car or a furry companion, this property won't work.
