Portico 21 Hotel

Kimberly stayed at Portico 21 Hotel on 2008-06-18 and said, "Warm Staff always there to greet us whether in the morning or early morning when returning. Breakfast was minimal but enough to start the day off. Very good location for every type of activity. Walking distance to Night Bazzar for shopping, late night bars, restaurants and fun red light activites if that is your taste. Room was clean and quiet. No extra frills but for the price perfect! We would stay there again on our next visit."

Miranda stayed at Portico 21 Hotel on 2008-06-10 and said, "We LOVED this hotel! It as fantastic, really great value and the people who ran it were so lovely. Right near the action and what an oasis. Chic decor and everything beautiful, in great working order and such a sanctuary from the hot dusty town that is Chiang Mai. Don t get me wrong we loved the town, but we loved coming back to this place even more! We had a bit of trouble with a few cab drivers so make sure you have the address with you when you get to the airport but it is so central and so good am sure they will all know where it is pretty soon! The room was fantastic, very roomy, modern and comfortable (on the top floor so you got a good workout too), with a lovely view of the town and mountains. Honestly we wouldn t stay anywhere else and this place was one of the finest accommodation experiences we had in Thailand AND one of the least expensive!!! Go there, take your friends and family and say hi from us!!!MIranda and Graham"

Fiona stayed at Portico 21 Hotel on 2008-02-18 and said, "New boutique hotel just outside the east gate of the old city, so within a few minutes of the walking street market on sundays and about 10 minutes from the night market. Very helpful and friendly staff, decor is minimally stylish and bedrooms a good size. A new hotel is being built next door which may cause noise problems during the day, but did not affect us as we were out before 8am and in after 4pm each day. As this place is new it is advisable for you to get hotel staff to explain to any tour guides exactly where the hotel is so they know where to collect you from - the hotel staff suggested this when we arrived and were more than happy to help."

Nghia stayed at Portico 21 Hotel on 2008-01-27 and said, "I booked my family and friends between the last week of January and checked out the first week of Febuary. In total there were about 15 of us staying at the Portico..What a suprise, the hotel looks exactly as show on the website! It is a beautiful hotel and located in a great area. It s walking distance to the night markets/bazzars and a quick tuk tuk ride to the shopping main centres.The rooms all have A/C and the beds are very comfortable. There are lots of hot water and good water pressure from the shower head.The owner and people working there are very helpful and friendly.We will definitely stay here again!"

Andrew stayed at Portico 21 Hotel on 2008-01-25 and said, "This was my first trip to Thailand and I was very impressed with the Portico Hotel. The hotel was very clean. The service was great and the hotel was very nicely decorated. What made the stay for me was all the little things. The fact that the shower had warm water and good pressure. There is airconditioning. There were never any bugs in my room. We received fresh towels and new soap every day. We were able to walk to almost everything because Portico 21 is close to everything. Bars and restaurants are steps away and the night market is less than 10 minutes away.I would definitely recommend this hotel."

M. stayed at Portico 21 Hotel on 2008-01-18 and said, "The staff were very friendly and spoke English. The room is air conditioned, spacious, simply furnished (i.e., not cluttered) and very clean. I especially liked the hardwood flooring and the wood in the rooms and the lobby. The bathroom is modern and has a shower (no bath). A note for those with difficulty climbing stairs: the hotel has 4 floors but no elevator. The continental breakfast served was ample: coffee or tea, fresh squeezed orange juice and chilled water, a yoghurt, a banana, two slices of toast with real fruit jam, a muffin or slice of banana bread, and a medium sized croissant.Excellent location near the Thapae Gate (and the local Sunday market), and only a 15-20 minute walk to the Night Market.I really enjoyed my stay and plan to visit the Portico 21 Hotel on my next visit!"

Wendy stayed at Portico 21 Hotel on 2008-01-17 and said, "Had a wonderful time at Portico 21. They have the BEST staff...and I can t complain at all...but only praises for them. The hotel is a walk-up, but don t let that stop you cos I had my elderly folks with me...and I pre-arranged for them to occupy the 2nd level, rm 201! Just speak to Deang or Uan of the hotel."

Ed stayed at Portico 21 Hotel on 2007-12-20 and said, "The hotel is very nice. When I first walked in I thought I was going into someone s condo. It was nicely decorated and the rooms are very up-to-date. The shower is separated by a curtain so you don t get the whole bathroom wet when you take a shower. There is no elevator, but only four floors. Location is great. 100 meters from Loh Kroh road and the Tha Pae Gate, 10 minute walk to the night market. The hotel staff does not have a problem if you bring a guest in. The hotel staff was very friendly and helpful. I checked out and returned three days later and they were happy to keep my luggage for me. The rooms were cleaned daily. I will certainly return to this hotel in the future. Highly recommended."

ONG stayed at Portico 21 Hotel on 2007-11-26 and said, "A nice little cosy hotel. However, the location is slightly off and maybe difficult to find. Staff was friendly but room amenities could be improved. For THB2000 a night (a bit pricey relative to the facilities available), I was expecting at least some coffee and tea-making facility but none was available. Breakfast was normal continental with two slices of bread. a cup of orange juice and coffee. A good 15 mins walk to the night-market. One last thing, it is a 4 storey building with no elevator. So if you have a big luggage, it will take some heavy effort to carry up to the 4th floor.CK, Malaysia"

Sohhooi, stayed at Portico 21 Hotel on 2007-11-17 and said, "2 minute walk to the Thapae Gate and tucked away in a quiet lane. Basic but great little hotel with very friendly staff. I d suggest the management pay a little more attention to bathroom maintenance. Otherwise, we had a very pleasant stay. Thank you."

Francisco stayed at Portico 21 Hotel on 2007-11-09 and said, "This was a great hotel, very clean, the rooms were modern and very new. The staff was great and the hotel is in a good location. The only thing I would improve is the breakfast, which was not bad, but it would be to have more variety than just American style breakfast."

Alan stayed at Portico 21 Hotel on 2007-10-30 and said, "Great, modern, but small hotel! Excellent location nearby the old walled city, yet on a side street so very quiet.The staff was awesome!"

Katarena stayed at Portico 21 Hotel on 2007-09-14 and said, "We loved our stay here, great value for money. The rooms were modern, I was really impressed with the standard of cleanliness. The staff were fantastic even preparing our breakfast to go when we were picked up early for tours. The location is a winner, close to night market, weekend walking market & great cafes. This was the only place we stayed whilst travelling through Thailand to offer free internet usage from our laptop. I would love to stay here again, loved Chiang Mai!!"

Lai stayed at Portico 21 Hotel on 2007-08-26 and said, "Very comfortable hotel and excellent interior design. Great place to rest your mind. Definitely worth the stay especially proximity to Sunday market. Only negative is that the breakfast is too light. Toast, jam, coffee, juice."

Jan stayed at Portico 21 Hotel on 2007-07-25 and said, "I was so delighted with the Portico 21 that I stayed an extra 3 nights. It s only been open a few months, is spotlessly clean (new sheets, towels, even toilet rolls (!) every day), modern and stylishly decorated. The Portico s position very close to the Thapae Gate is ideal for exploring the old city and it s about a 10 minute walk to the Night Market. It s set just a street back from the Moat and quiet at night. Staff have been incredibly helpful and friendly and the security guard saluted me every time he held open the door for me! Breakfast is continental, but there was plenty of it. I found absolutely no fault with this hotel and would recommend it!I will return!"
