Inthada At Mae Kampong

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.
