Opened in 2023 in the forested hills east of Chiang Mai, Inthada At Mae Kampong is a 14-room property that splits the difference between a boutique hotel and a nature retreat. Every room faces the river, every balcony hangs over running water, and the sound of the stream is the only thing between you and silence. Starting from ฿3,312 per night with breakfast included, it occupies a valley 35.6 kilometres from the Old City — far enough to feel remote, close enough to reach in under an hour.
Location and the Mae Kampong Connection
The property sits near Ban Pok Nai, approximately 3.65 kilometres from Mae Kampong village — one of Chiang Mai's most visited hill communities, known for its coffee cultivation, community-based tourism, and the Flight of the Gibbon zipline adventure nearby. The woo ma ca moo homestay, another well-regarded property in the area, is in the same valley. Other nearby points: Sai Tan Resort (1.23 km), Mon Tin Tok Camping Resort (1.72 km), Mae Kampong Waterfall (4.46 km), and San Kamphaeng Hot Springs (4.69 km).
Accommodation
Fourteen rooms across four categories, all with river views:
- Deluxe Room (55 sqm): queen bed, river view, large bathtub - Villa (67 sqm): king bed, river view, the most spacious standard option - Villa River View (50 sqm): king bed, direct river panorama - Family Suite River View (240 sqm): two king beds, designed for families needing genuine space
All rooms include air conditioning, bathrobes, free toiletries, balcony, mini-bar, electric kettle, and a work desk. The property has a hot tub for guest use.
Dining
Unlike many homestays in the Mae Kampong area, Inthada has its own restaurant serving international cuisine — a practical advantage when the nearest town is a winding mountain drive away. Breakfast is included in the rate. Guest feedback notes that portions at breakfast are on the smaller side and seating can be limited during peak times, so arriving early is advisable.
What Guests Say
Review score: 7.8/10 from 42 reviews. Location scores highest at 8.4 against a city average of 8.1 — guests appreciate the natural setting. Staff are described as friendly and responsive. The aesthetic design of the rooms and the large bathtubs receive consistent praise. Some guests note that hot-tub water can appear slightly discoloured due to the natural mineral content of mountain water sources — a common characteristic in rural Thai highland properties, not a maintenance issue. Cleanliness (7.4) and facilities (7.4) score below the city average, suggesting a property still finding its operational rhythm in its early years.

Who This Is For
Nature seekers who want hotel-grade rooms without hotel-grade surroundings. Couples celebrating something — the river-view villas with private balconies have a romantic quality that the price point doesn't fully telegraph. Families booking the 240 sqm suite who want their children to hear a river instead of traffic. Anyone visiting Mae Kampong who wants to stay in the valley rather than day-tripping from the city.

Mae Kampong Village
A beautifully preserved Karen and Mien hill tribe village at 1,300 metres in the mountains east of Chiang Mai, famous for its miang (fermented tea leaf) production. The village is threaded by a cool stream with a small waterfall, and the entire community runs a highly regarded homestay programme. One of the most authentic and scenic village experiences accessible from Chiang Mai.
San Kamphaeng Hot Springs
A geological marvel 34 km east of Chiang Mai where natural hot springs reach near-boiling temperatures of up to 98°C. The main geyser erupts to 1 metre height. Visitors relax in therapeutic warm mineral pools (cooled to 37–40°C), cook eggs in the boiling springs, receive traditional Thai massages, and enjoy the outdoor spa with mineral mud baths.
Wat Doi Saket
A graceful temple complex atop a small hill east of Chiang Mai, dominated by a gleaming white chedi with an unusual octagonal base. The 200-step naga stairway ascent is rewarded with expansive views over the Ping River valley. The main viharn contains exceptional Lanna-era murals depicting Jataka stories and scenes of ancient Chiang Mai — some of the finest in the region.
San Kamphaeng Handicraft Village
The main road through San Kamphaeng town is flanked by over 100 specialist craft workshops producing Chiang Mai's signature artisan goods: celadon glazed pottery, hand-woven silk and cotton, lacquerware, teak furniture, and hand-painted fans. Most workshops welcome visitors to watch the full production process and purchase directly from the artisans at significantly lower prices than city shops.
Bo Sang Umbrella Village
The 'Umbrella Village' 9 km east of Chiang Mai has crafted hand-painted paper umbrellas for over 150 years. Entire families work in open-fronted workshops — splitting bamboo, stretching sa (mulberry bark) paper, and painting intricate floral and geometric patterns by hand using natural pigments. Every January, the Bo Sang Umbrella Festival attracts visitors from across Asia.
Promenada Resort Mall
The most architecturally distinctive mall in Chiang Mai, designed as a Mediterranean resort village with open piazzas, fountains, and a rooftop terrace overlooking the Ping River floodplain. Houses international brands, an IMAX cinema, a rooftop ice skating rink (open Nov–Jan), and Rimping Supermarket — the best premium grocery store in northern Thailand for imported and organic products.
KM8 Silverware & Lacquerware Workshops
Located on the San Kamphaeng craft highway at kilometre 8, this cluster of traditional workshops produces hand-hammered silverware and intricate lacquered bamboo containers using techniques unchanged for centuries. Open workshops allow visitors to watch silversmiths at work with mallets and stamps, and to purchase jewellery, decorative bowls, and betel nut boxes at workshop prices.
Chiang Mai Science Museum
An interactive science centre designed for curious minds of all ages, covering seismology (Northern Thailand sits on active fault lines), geology, biology, physics, and traditional Thai medicine. Hands-on exhibits encourage experimentation, and the planetarium dome runs regular astronomy shows in Thai and English. Popular for school trips and family days out.
Ruamchok Market
A sprawling fresh market on the northeastern outskirts beloved by locals and street food enthusiasts. Open from 5 AM until late morning, it serves the best authentic Northern Thai breakfast in the city: Khao Tom rice soup, fried dough sticks (Pa Thong Ko), purple sticky rice with coconut, Miang Kham leaf wraps, and grilled Sai Oua sausage at prices locals actually pay.
