The Velvet Orchid

The rooms are clean and comfortable with great AC, and there's a working elevator. The staff are really friendly and helpful; they answered all my questions and were always pleasant to talk with. There's no breakfast or coffee or anything, but you are very close to some good restaurants (more expensive ones and local hole-in-the-wall type places, like the must-try Huen Phen) and some amazing coffee (try Akha Amma!) I also loved the neighborhood -- a tiny bit less touristy than the rest of the Old Town; you could see lots of Thai families hanging out at the shops and restaurants.

The room feels a bit small but the amenities and furniture were high quality and gave a pleasant atmosphere. The Wifi was really good, connectivity everywhere in the room and high speed. The sockets were multi-standard so they also supported US connectors. There were 2 windows in 2 directions, there was a nice street view from the balcony. The hotel was quite in the middle of the Old City and close to most of the interesting attractions. The staff was very supportive, kind and available.

Very central location, close to restaurants, shops and massage places. Walking distance to the Sunday market, 10 minutes. For being in the old town, it was good value. Also needed the elevator for older folks. Rooms were clean.

I had a lovely, comfortable stay here. The room was tidy and clean. It was very quite inside and out the hotel. So, good sleep was guarantueed. Overall, the value for money is just great. I really liked the location. Not too busy, but you still have a lot of eateries, massages around you in walking distance. I would definitely come back.

This is our favorite hotel in CM; always return to it. Location is excellent; in the heart of the old town, so all corners are always within walking distance reach. Rooms are always beautifully decorated with nice woodwork and beautiful furniture. Amazing price-quality ratio!
