We stayed at the Puripunn for 5...
We stayed at the Puripunn for 5 nights. This is the loveliest hotel we had stayed in the entire Thailand with our numerous visits there over the years. There are several reasons why we love this hotel so much. On the top of the list is their gracious service, gentle spirit, and kind hospitality expressed by the owner who came to greet us soon after we arrived and spent time sharing valuable info on what to do and where to go in Chiang Mai when we asked him for the info. The entire staff from front desk, dinning room staff, room cleaning staff are all super gracious and attentive without being intrusive in anyway. All of them made us feel so welcome. We really feel Puripunn has become our home away from home. The food at the hotel is great. We had breakfast, lunch, dinner there numerous time and each meal was deliciuos and well prepared. The environment of the hotel is very serene, tranquil, peaceful with a lovely garden with scented flowers, chipping birds, and a small lovely pool. The neigborhood is quiet, peaceful and very safe to walk out to the main street which soon leads to the Ping River, only a five minute walk to high quality shops, galleries, and nice restaurants along the river. On the other side of the river is more hassle bussle near the Night Bazaar. We are so glad we choose to stay at Puripunn, a lovely oasis with the most gracious Thai hospitality we have ever experienced and yet so convenient to go everywhere. The hotel provides free tuk tuk service to the night bazaar and the Sunday Night market. They do everything to make our stay as comfortable and charming as possible. We will for sure return to Puripunn in our future visits to Chiang Mai. We highly recommend this superb boutique hotel to anyone who values attentive hospitality and a gracious, serene environment. We would go back in a minute!!
