Banilah is a lovely boutique hotel. The girls are super helpful with their maps and knowledge of the area. Although located out of the city it is most certainly walkable. There are lots of local eating places nearby. We really enjoyed our stay here. The little touches made it even more pleasant

Good value for money
Fave thing about the guesthouse - The staff, particularly Nancy (not sure if the spelling is right), was very helpful. She was friendly to us, and was very warm to our toddler. She even helped carry him up and down the stairs a couple of time! She gave maps and tips to navigate the area, places of interest, etc. Least fave thing about the guesthouse - The bathroom was outside of the room, you have to go out to the balcony to access the bathroom. But we were fine with it.

Favorite place to stay in Chiang Mai
Banilah is my favorite place to stay in Chiang Mai. The staff are friendly and helpful, and the rooms are excellent. The location is another big plus, it's in a neighbourhood that's nice and quiet and that has great cafes and restaurants.

Hands down, best service and assistance on town!
You can people next door at times, but really people were very respectful. The location is good with it just minutes from the northwest mote. Lots of coffee and Thai restaurants in the area. Free use if their bikes to take to Maya mall. They have a cat cafe attached to the hotel. But you can sit outdoors if allergic.

Banilah July 2017
Can't be more positive about the staff, absolutely fantastic. Sat us down when we arrived and marked our key destinations on a map for the city. Really helped as the close sureounding area is all Thai locals and no english signs etc. The staff also helped introduce us to taxi apps rather than using the local tuc-tucs, which proved so much cheaper (despite finding out afterwards that this isn't approved bt the Thai government lol, it still worked). Really nice rooms for the price too with good A/C. Can't really fault it

Great staff & good location
Situated 10 miniute walk from the old city where there are plenty of temples to visit and markets that run in different parts of the city on a Saturday and Sunday. The staff where amazingly helpful and speak English very well. The rooms are basic but are kept topped up with free bottled water daily. The staff give you a quick briefing as how to find everything and provide several maps that will get you to all the tourist attractions. Overall an excellent stay and would definitely re visit if we returned to chaing mai

Purrr-fect
The staff at Banilah were so friendly and helpful, they provided maps and gave a very indepth insight into the local area about best ways to get around, what to see and the best value places to eat. They will order a Scooter for you and even sort laundry if the local places aren't able to take your washing. We were surprised that the reception doubles as a cat cafe, the cats keep themselves to themselves though if this isn't your thing! The coffee is good! The rooms are basic but private, great value and cleaned every day. There is a pond in the courtyard so you can hear water constantly.

Best hotel in Chiang Mai!
The location was close enough to the city but far enough away that we got a feel for the local culture. The hotel staff was the best part of our stay, the girls sat us down with a map at our check in and showed us the ins and outs of Chiang Mai. They hired scooters for us and set us up to hang with the elephants for the day, I don't think we would have had such a successful trip if it weren't for them. The room was cozy and cleaned every day and the common area was a nice place to meet other travelers over tea/coffee. There is also a security guard every night but we found the area to be pretty safe!

上当了！
水泥家具，没有空调，只有蚊帐和风扇，房间小，用门栓的没有锁的。就像住农民家里一样。厕所在需要走出房间阳台上条件差。有蚂蚁，空调房需要加钱后就比附近的其它正规酒店贵了而条件有差许许多多。

More than what I expected, ideal for solo traveler
Have a pleasant stay for my 6D5N city escape. The guesthouse is located about 15mins away from Chiang Mai Airport and you can easily grab a shared shuttle bus services at the airport Exit. Fees is about 80THB per pax. The guesthouse has a great accessibility to all the famous local foods. Restaurant, cafes, 7-eleven, LOTUS TESCO market are all within walking distance. Famous old city, night bazaar and Nimman road are just about 2-3km away . The guesthouse offer bicycles services (about 8-10units) at FREE charges! Bike service are available too but is chargeable. The room is quite big and air-condition. It was clean and has a individual bathroom, ideal for budget traveller who prefer some privacy. Basic room amenities i.e drinking water, glasses,hot water, hanger, shampoo, soap (handmade aromatic soup) are provided and replenish daily. Definitely value for money! The guesthouse atmosphere are cozy and surrounded with green plants, fountain and fishes. For pet lovers, you will love their cat themed lobby and there are 11 cats sleeping around the lobby. Lastly, the staffs and services are 5 stars (credit to Nancy)! They are friendly and very helpful. Going to miss you all.

Excellent guesthouse with super helpful staff
We originally booked to stay at Banilah for 2 days but ended up staying for 6 days in total. :) Location: The location ws great for us as it isn't right in the centre of town, it is located in a manly thai area just a 10 walk from the old city wall. Around the hotel are quite a lot of authentic thai places to eat where you can get a nice meal for 30-50 baht. There's also a market just down the road which has a variety of benders selling thai food and tasty snacks for gear prices. Room: We booked into a room with aircon on the second floor which also comes with a fan, this was more than enough to keep us cool on them hot humid chiang mai days. The rooms have everything that you could need including all the basics (bottles of water, TV etc) and are cleaned every day by the friendly house keepers. The room door is locked from the inside by a large wooden bolt which adds a certain rustic feeling to the place which we really liked. The only thing that may put peplum off its guesthouse is the fact that the toilet is in it's own separate litting building on the balcony but don't let this put you off as it just means that you have to go onto your balcony to enter the bathroom or return to your room. Not a big deal! Customer service: The customer service provided by this guesthouse has to be some of the best we have received on our travels. When you first check in you are given a map of the city and told of everything the city has to offer including great local places to eat.

First night's reservation- left out in the rain.
Not a good first impression of Banilah. I called the owner the morning of my reservation. I told her I was arriving late and we would arrive around 10pm. I also asked to extend our stay if possible. She said she would leave my key with the security guard. All I would have to do is give my name and he would give us the key and I can complete the check in process and discuss extending our stay tomorrow. Unfortunately the guard did not have my name or my key when I arrived close to 11pm. He tried to call the owner on his phone, stopped and said he didn't have enough phone credit to make the call. I said I had credit and I could call her. I asked for her cell number. He said, "No, she is sleeping. Come back tomorrow?" So my partner and I were appalled, walked away with all our bags in the rain at 11pm to look for a new place to stay. Not nice. The next day we came back to Banilah and explained what had happened. The staff was apologetic, but blamed the security guard. It wasn't his fault that he didn't have my key. She did sit us down to discuss amenities close to the hotel, she was very nice. However, when it came to discussing extending the stay, she said we could stay an extra night for "free," and then we'd have to pay full price for any additional nights. So all in all, the "free" night was just what we originally paid for and nothing extra. Very frustrating to go through such a terrible experience and not be compensated anything for our trouble.
