This guest house is inexpensive and the location is perfect. The en-suite room we had was basic, with beds and a fan. For 200 baht per person it was perfect. The family who run this guest house are extremely helpful and really friendly. It's the best place we've stayed in Thailand so far. All the other guests were friendly. We would definitely recommend it, especially for young travellers on a budget.
Libra guesthouse is perfectly located in Chiang Mai and has a range of rooms for every budget. But what really made our trip to chiang mai was the staff. We had limited time but by talking with the amazing staff who run the guesthouse we were able to arrange everything easily. They even booked our bus while we were away on our trek so that we were sure of a seat. Amazing local knowledge and truly lovely people.
We had a nice week long stay at the Libra Guesthouse, was recommended by a lady we met on the train journey there! The owners are very friendly, the rooms spacious and very cheap for what you get. Good location too. Thanks for a nice stay.
I've stayed at several places in Chiang Mai, Libra has been my favorite. Perfect location in the calmer northeast corner of the old city. The owners are great, super helpful and very funny. Be aware that it's high season plus the flower festival, so most places are booked or only have one night available at a time, it's difficult to find multiple nights by walking around, you'll see lots of people trying... Libra's less expensive 400-800 baht high season rate rooms were full, but they had a large 1000 baht room available for several nights, good value, it's just as nice as one that I had paid quite a bit more for in the noisy center of town. Mostly young backpackers but also some families. Nice garden areas and good food. Room 108, so quiet, the only sounds were the birds outside and the refrigerator. I'll be back in a couple weeks to go on their 3-day trek, looks like fun and good reviews.
This is a nice family run guest house in a chilled area of Chiang Mai. The family were nice, washing service was fast and cheap. I only ate breakfast there once but it was pretty good. There's a garden out the back. WARNING don't book Room 4, or insist upon not having it. The room is simple but nice but the water from the tap smelt so strongly of rotten eggs it made me feel sick every time i turned it on. Also the owners have put a smoking area/bench outside the door/window of the room which means other people's smoke wafts in.
I'd stay here again but in a different room.
