rimtara residence patan is a straightforward hotel, 5-star rated, with a 7.4 out of 10 score from 44 reviews, sitting at an indicative nightly rate of just 346 THB — about as affordable as it gets in this whole batch. Uncle Kham would call this an honest, no-frills base for travellers who want to spend their money on the city rather than the room, and won't lose sleep over a lobby that isn't trying to impress anyone.
Getting to rimtara residence patan
The hotel is 4.2 km from the Old City centre and 7.2 km from Chiang Mai International Airport — a short, easy ride into the temple district. Free Wi-Fi in all rooms is confirmed, a genuine plus at this price point, and daily housekeeping is included as standard. Uncle Kham would say that combination alone — connectivity and a made bed every day — covers most of what a short budget stay actually needs.
Rooms & What to Expect
Four room types are on file, all facing an outdoor view. The Superior Twin Room is 32 square meters, with two single beds — a solid pick for friends travelling together. The Deluxe Double Room with Balcony, the same 32 square meters, adds a private balcony to a queen bed. The Superior King Room, again 32 square meters, offers a king bed. And the Deluxe Double Room, without the specified size, keeps to a king bed as well. Between them, there's real choice for couples, friends, or solo travellers wanting a bit more room. At this price, having four distinct room categories to choose from at all is more than many budget hotels in this batch manage.
Amenities & Facilities
An elevator is confirmed, genuinely useful for anyone not wanting to manage luggage on the stairs, and a garden rounds out the property's outdoor space, a quiet spot to sit outside the room without heading all the way out to the street. Guests specifically flag free Wi-Fi and daily housekeeping among what they appreciate most about staying here. It's a modest list, but every item on it is the kind of practical detail that actually gets used every day of a stay, rather than a showpiece amenity nobody touches. Uncle Kham would rather see a short, honest list like this than a long one padded out with things that sound better on paper than they work in practice.
What's Nearby — Temples, Markets & Local Life
Tha Phae Gate is 4.16 km away, with Wat Phra Singh, the Gold Temple, close behind at 4.26 km, and Wat Chedi Luang at 4.31 km — all comfortably reachable for a day of temple-hopping. The Night Bazaar follows at 4.47 km and Wua Lai Walking Street at 4.96 km. Closer to the hotel, Baan Dol Sook, an elderly care home, sits 150 meters away, with Pa Ton Clinic at 160 meters. Ban Sabai Spa is 730 meters off — a nearby wellness option for guests wanting a treatment during their stay — and Monfai at 770 meters, with Elephant Parade Land rounding things out at 1.01 km. That last one, in particular, is worth building an afternoon around if elephant-related attractions are on the itinerary.
Dining
No on-site restaurant is confirmed at rimtara, so guests should plan on eating out, which is straightforward given the short ride into the Old City's dense dining scene, from street food stalls to sit-down restaurants covering every budget.
Other Hotels Nearby
Chic Villa 6 sits 0.2 km away, a 4-star property scoring 8.2 out of 10. Siamhome8 Bedroom Private Pool Villa follows at 0.4 km, also 4-star, at 7.6 out of 10 — a larger group option with its own pool nearby. And Nattida Place rounds out the trio at 1.0 km, a 4.5-star property scoring 8.4 out of 10. Travellers wanting more than a simple budget room might find the pool villa option worth a look, even at a higher price than rimtara itself.
Guest Reviews
A 7.4 out of 10 from 44 reviews sits below several other properties in this batch, and the category breakdown is honest about where: facilities score 7.1 against a city average of 8.8, and staff service comes in at 7.3 against 9. Location, at 7.6 against a city average of 8.1, holds up better — guests clearly rate the position even where other aspects lag. Cleanliness at 7.4 sits closest to the city average of 8.9, rounding out a picture of a hotel that's honest rather than exceptional, at a price that reflects exactly that.
Good to Know
Given the honest gap in some review categories, this suits budget-conscious travellers who prioritise price and location over polish. At 346 THB a night, it leaves an enormous amount of room in the budget for everything else on a Chiang Mai trip — a proper meal out most evenings, an extra day trip, or simply a longer stay than the budget would otherwise allow. Uncle Kham has always thought that kind of arithmetic matters more to a real trip than a slightly higher star rating on paper.
rimtara residence patan won't pretend to be more than a simple, well-located, very affordable hotel — and for travellers who know exactly that's what they want, Uncle Kham would call it a smart, honest pick, with a low price that still leaves room for the rest of the trip's real experiences.
