iWualai Hotel

I stayed at iWualai for two nights and really like its simplicity. After an intense period of travel, I was looking for a comfortable place to rest, and this hotel provided just that. As a solo traveler, I found the room spacious and cozy. The staff were exceptionally friendly and even remembered my name when I went for breakfast the next morning, a small detail, but one that made my stay feel more personal and welcoming. While the hotel is on the smaller side and doesn’t have a full-service restaurant beyond breakfast, they offer complimentary snacks, coffee, tea, and mineral water, which I found to be a nice touch. The breakfast selection was excellent. I had noodles with green curry, which was incredibly delicious. They also provide other options, including bread, salad, and fresh fruit. I highly recommend staying at iWualai!

The staff were very nice—definitely one of the highlights of this hotel. Breakfast was good 👍. As others have mentioned, the free unlimited water and coffee were a great touch. The location is excellent, especially if you're planning to visit Walking Street. The beds and pillows were super comfortable—we had a great night's sleep. We stayed in Room 105. I saw a previous comment saying it was too loud, but it was quiet during our stay. It probably depends on the other guests at the time. Ample parking is available, which is a big plus in the downtown area where parking can be hard to find.

Great location, especially for the Wua Lai Walking Street Saturday Night Market. Also close to the town square and many tours will pick you up from the hotel. Tucked back just a little, so it’s quiet. The breakfast was great and different everyday. Coffee was available all day. An abundance of cold water to drink and keep in the hotel fridge, plus a water filling station for water bottles. Bedding was soft, lots of pillows and a nice comforter. The staff was so kind and friendly. Laundry service was available and affordable. I loved staying here and hope to be back one day!

I ended up spending 7 nights in this lovely hotel. The care they put into the hotel is in many details. For example, they always come up with something new at breakfast. The portion of food and choices are never excessive. It’s a nice balance. The lobby, where the breakfast is served, is facing the outdoor pool. 24-hour free coffee/tea/snacks/banana are on the big table. It in a way feels like your home kitchen, especially when you come downstairs early in the morning to make yourself a coffee. I would definitely recommend it to my friends and family who visit Chiang Mai.

I had such a nice stay at this hotel. The rooms were big, clean the bed was so comfy, good AC and nice hot powerful shower. WiFi worked well and the breakfast was wonderful, so many choices that changed everyday. They also leave out fruit and snacks during the day and you can help yourself to water and coffee / tea. The pool is a nice addition and although it’s a bit cold I still went in as it was such a hot day, it was nice to cool off after being in the hot city. It’s a short walk to the old town, maybe 5mins to the south gate and it’s easy to get a grab everywhere is so close by. I actually stayed twice as I went on a meditation retreat and came back after, the staff were so kind and let me store a bag for those days. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
