brall3 Posted June 8, 2016 Posted June 8, 2016 During my upcoming trip to Chiang Mai I would like to stay in the area close to the Adams A. club. I AM NOT INTERESTED in staying in another area. The Lotus Hotel is perfectly located across from the Adams A. club, but the hotel does not have good reviews on various gay/non-gay travel sites. Therefore I would prefer to stay at another hotel. Does anyone have any suggestions or recommendations on other hotels in the area near the Adams A. club? Again, I am interested in hotels ONLY in the area near the Adams A. club. I have absolutely no desire whatsoever to stay in a hotel located very far, 3 kilometers or more, from the club. Quote
musgrave Posted June 8, 2016 Posted June 8, 2016 I stayed at Now Chiang Mai Mini Hotel - it's a guesthouse - 8 rooms with a communal kitchen - I had the triple room which was very comfortable - it's a 10-15 minute to Adams Apple and less to New My Way Bar - I had no issues taking a guest back primarily because it was self entry with key after midnight - no lift - a few small eating places near by - one that specialises in duck was very nice - listed on Trip Advisor for reviews Quote
witty Posted June 8, 2016 Posted June 8, 2016 I had a pleasant stay at Mercure, no issues with visitors. But the swimming pool is unheated and the water quite chilly in the winter months. Quote
Nasherich Posted June 8, 2016 Posted June 8, 2016 I have to say I can't recommend the Mercure at all. Its proximity to your desired club is all it has going for it. I found this to be a hotel where none of the staff cared in the slightest about the guests, with management nowhere to be seen. Quote
Guest Promsak Posted June 8, 2016 Posted June 8, 2016 The Lotus Hotel is perfectly located across from the Adams A. club, but the hotel does not have good reviews on various gay/non-gay travel sites. Sorry no recommendations but to comment that I always had the impression that the Lotus is a guest house owned by Adam's Apple. I stayed a few years ago and was not impressed with the cheaper rooms but the topmost rooms looked very nice even though it was a trek up the stairs after a few beers. NOT to be confused with another large LOTUS hotel some distance away -- not recommended. Quote
captainmick Posted June 8, 2016 Posted June 8, 2016 I stayed at the excellent QI68 hotel which is gay owned and operated and was most satisfactory in every way. It is 2.3km from Adams A so well within your preset 3km radius. The walk to Adams was about 15 minutes but quicker by TukTuk. Quote
lukylok Posted June 8, 2016 Posted June 8, 2016 Why not try the Viangbua mansions, it looks nice and is 50 meters from Adam's KhorTose 1 Quote
brall3 Posted June 8, 2016 Author Posted June 8, 2016 Thanks guys! I was not aware of any of those places and will definitely check them out. Keep the suggestions coming. Quote
Guest McGarty Posted June 9, 2016 Posted June 9, 2016 The Mercure is good or for a bit of luxe, the secret 5 star hotel in CM on Wotif.com is the Chiang Mai Meridien, near the night market. enjoy this wonderful city. Quote
