My friend and I really enjoyed our stay at The 51 Hometel. It is newly refurbished, very clean and comfortable - with an "industrial design" - in black, grey and white. Rooms have kettles, tea and coffee (very unusual in Thai hotels), the breakfasts were delicious and the staff speak English and couldn't be more helpful. The 51 Hometel is located in a Thai part of Chiang Mai close to the SuperHighway and about 20 minutes' walk from the city centre. I would certainly stay there again!
