Beautiful Apartment in the Old City at Walking Street

The Beautiful Apartment in the Old City at Walking Street does exactly what its name promises: it puts guests inside the historic core, close enough to the walls and temples that a stay here feels less like a hotel booking and more like borrowing a well-placed home. Rated 5 stars with a perfect 10 out of 10 review score from its first guest, this apartment sits just 0.7 kilometres from the Old City centre and 3.1 kilometres from Chiang Mai International Airport (CNX) — about as central as accommodation in this city gets.

Getting to Beautiful Apartment in the Old City

This is a listing built entirely around proximity. At 0.7 kilometres from the Old City centre, guests are within easy walking distance of the moat, the gates, and the grid of lanes inside the old walled city — no need to plan taxi rides around temple visits or night market trips. The 3.1-kilometre run from the airport is short enough that a late landing doesn't feel like an ordeal. Free Wi-Fi is available throughout, and the property is explicitly located within Chiang Mai's tourist area, meaning restaurants, shops, and transport options are all within easy reach on foot. Check-in opens at 14:00, with check-out by 12:00 the following day.

Rooms & What to Expect

The apartment's single listed room type is the Deluxe Apartment, a generous 96 square metres with one king bed and two further king beds — three king beds in total, spread across a layout large enough to sleep multiple couples or a larger family group comfortably rather than cramming them into one shared room. The room carries a scenic outlook toward the hills beyond the city, a genuine bonus for a stay this deep inside the walls, where most rooms look out onto the tiled roofs and narrow lanes just below. For a group splitting the cost of a roomy apartment instead of booking multiple hotel rooms, this is the kind of layout that makes the maths — and the mornings — easier.

Amenities & Facilities

The property includes a fitness room, useful for guests who want to keep up a routine without hunting down a gym elsewhere in the Old City. Guests have specifically praised the airport transfer option, the free Wi-Fi in every room, the balcony or terrace attached to the apartment, and — unsurprisingly, given the address — the location itself, right inside Chiang Mai's tourist quarter. It's a short list, but a well-chosen one: the things that matter most for a stay built around walking out the door into the old city rather than lounging on hotel grounds.

What's Nearby — Temples, Markets & Local Life

Few Chiang Mai stays can match this one for sheer proximity to the Old City's landmarks. Wat Phra Singh (the Gold Temple) is just 260 metres away — close enough to catch the morning light on its tiered roof before breakfast. Wat Chedi Luang (วัดเจดีย์หลวง), with its towering, partially ruined chedi that has anchored the city's skyline for centuries, sits 740 metres off. For evening energy, Wua Lai Walking Street is 1.3 kilometres away, the Saturday-night market built around the city's traditional silverware trade, while Tha Phae Gate, the eastern entrance to the old walled city and one of the most photographed spots in Chiang Mai, is 1.39 kilometres. Chiang Mai Night Bazaar, the long-running evening market strip, is 2.15 kilometres out. Closer still, at just 70 metres, is Wat Prasat, a smaller neighbourhood temple easy to miss on a map but worth a quiet look on the way past. The Hill Tribe Research Museum sits 110 metres away, and Wat Pha Bong is 180 metres off — two more stops within a few minutes' walk that reward guests willing to wander rather than head straight for the famous names.

Dining

No specific on-site restaurant is confirmed for this apartment, so dining means stepping outside — which, given the address, is no hardship. The surrounding Old City area is dense with casual local dining options, from street-side kitchens to small cafés, all within the same short walk that reaches the temples and markets above. Nothing specific can be named here, but the location itself does most of the work.

Other Hotels Nearby

Right in the same pocket of the Old City is BaanBooLoo Village, 0.0 kilometres away and rated 5 stars with a 9.1 out of 10 review score — essentially a neighbour. Le Charcoa Hotel is 0.1 kilometres off, rated 4 stars with an 8.8 out of 10 score, and Chankam Boutique Hotel sits at the same 0.1-kilometre distance, 4 stars with an 8.7 out of 10 rating. All three sit close enough that comparing them is really a matter of room style and price rather than location — this stretch of the Old City is that tightly packed with places to stay.

Guest Reviews

With one review on record, the Beautiful Apartment in the Old City holds a perfect 10 out of 10 score, and the category breakdown shows why: every single metric — Cleanliness, Facilities, Location, Room comfort and quality, Service, and Value for money — scored a full 10 out of 10, each one clearing the Chiang Mai city average by a wide margin (city averages ranged from 7.9 for Location to 8.7 for Service). It's an early result, drawn from a single guest rather than a long history, but a genuinely clean sweep across every category the site tracks.

Good to Know

This is a stay built for people who want to be inside the Old City walls rather than a short drive from them — 0.7 kilometres from the centre, with Wat Phra Singh close enough to walk to in a few minutes. The 96-square-metre Deluxe Apartment, with its three king beds and hillside outlook, suits a group or family wanting real space rather than a standard hotel room. Check-in from 14:00, check-out by 12:00. No specific on-site dining venue is confirmed, so plan on exploring the many casual options within a short walk.

For a traveller who wants to step out the front door directly into the heart of old Chiang Mai — temples, walking streets, and the night bazaar all within a couple of kilometres — this apartment's location does most of the selling on its own.
