    Paul and his family are great hosts. We arrived late and they gave us a big fruit platter. Then, we were interested in watching a soccer match at very late night, and Paul didn't rest until he found a place where we could see it. They helped us to arrange our bus tickets and when we did the check out they gave us food for the long trip. We appreciated a lot those details. The breakfast is delicious and you have many options. The rooms are clean and comfortables. I highly recommed this guesthouse.

    Never got a chance to say thank you to Paul (hope I got that right) for the great lunch and conversation a week ago. Sorry I never got to make it to the kickboxing, got really tied up with some stuff. But you guys were beyond hospitable and I just wanted to let you know through here. If any travelers are looking to stay here I'd say do it. The end

    If I could give Banh Mi 6 stars we would! The family run guesthouse is in a great location inside the old City. The wonderful family were very hospitable and consistently asked how our trip was going and made great recommendations on places to visit and how to get around. They spoke English very well and definitely made us feel like family! Our trip wouldn't have been as memorable without them! We will be trying to visit and stay again here!

    My family and I stopped by during an odd hour in the day. Regardless, Aay freshly cooked everything by herself and it all tasted amazing. We had a chance to talk with her about how she ended up in Chiang Mai and met some of her family. It was a great, relaxing, and tasty experience. I would love to stay at Banh Mi when I return to Chiang Mai.

    Banh mi Review We had a really nice time at the Banh Mi guesthouse. We came in really early, about 8:30-9:00 in the morning. Allthough checkin was at 14:00, our room was ready for us when we came in, which was really nice. Nick and Ms. Jaep were so friendly to us. Nick even spend an hour with us talking about the things we could do and recommendations he had for us. He even offered us to walk us to the temple for the best massage in Chiang Mai. He also managed to book us an awesome trip with the elephants just the day after we arrived. During our stay at Banh Mi guesthouse, it was my girlfriends birthday. Nick even helped me do something nice for her, so he ordered an awesome ice cake and they all sang for her. Every morning Ms. Jaep made us a really nice breakfast and she was so friendly during out stay there. They really make you feel at home and they are willing to help you with everything. Accomodation is also very clean and has everything you need. When going to Chiang Mai I really recommend to go to Banh Mi guesthouse. When we come back to Chiang Mai, we will go back to Banh Mi for sure! Thanks Nick and Ms. Jaep for the nice stay in your guesthouse.

    I went to this place following the good reviews. When I went there it was empty. I should've left. Food was horrible and pricey. The hostess was the cook as well, and she was in the kitchen making food with her hair down. No hats. My smoothie was made of spoiled frozen fruits. I don't recommend this place if you're new to Chiang Mai. Beware, the food is horrible and they will rip you off.

    I stayed there twice in September ...each time for about 5 days. The room was large and clean with a very comfortable bed. I had breakfast sometimes and really enjoyed my " eggs Poached" ! The hosts are fabulous and very helpful. Excellent value all round.. and I expect to return before too long.

    It is very well located, close to bars, restaurants, 7 elevens, pharmacies, temples, night market and more. The place is very clean and comfortable, plus you have very good options for breakfast. But far away the best is Paul and his family. They welcomed us in the best way and they helped us from the first until the last minute. I would stay here again without hesitation. Highly recommend.

    Familial guesthouse in the historic city center of Chiang Mai. The rooms are specious, tidy and equipped with an AC. The host Paul gave us lots of hints and helped us to organise trips with our scooter. I highly recommend this place, if you want to feel like at home.

    If you want a really nice place to stay in Chian Mai, stay at Paul's place. Clean rooms, good breakfast and Paul is just the best host ever. He has great ideas how you can spend your time in the city! 👍🏻

    We went there twice for a meal and a breakfast. The meals were great, and the staff really nice. The owner of the place also nicely gave us very good advice on activities and treks to do around the city (I guess that it should be a nice place to stay as a guest house too!)

    Although it was short, it was some of the best stays of my journey in Asia. A couple runs the guesthouse and they are absolutely wonderful people. On the first day, they provide you with a tray of exotic fruits and are always around to answer your questions or just have an interesting conversation. Do ask to see their spear gun. Oh and breakfast is complimentary - I made the mistake of trying to pay for the meal only to learn it was provided.

    The place is a little hidden, but it's worth the visit. The green curry is great, and so is the dragonfruit smoothie. They serve a great mint and lemon tea for customers, that's very refreshing.

    Absolutely fantastic place to stay Best nights sleep I've had in years Laid back and relaxing atmosphere with a restaurant with food to die for and invisibly attentive service Can't recommend this place highly enough.... Awesome

    Came in with my wife for a late breakfast. I have been having trouble finding real Thai meals in the old City, but this place had 5-6 of them, plus some more Western fare. I got kwaiteaw gai (a thai chicken noodle soup with veggies) and my wife got chicken fried rice. It was quite good and will be coming back for dinner/breakfasts in the future.

    (Translated by Google) The boss and the staff were kind, but the amount was too little compared to the price, and the taste was not good. Also, the ingredients were not ready well, so I ate pineapple fried rice and I did not have pineapple so I just ate fried ... well, . I came here to eat near the reviews, but it is not a place to visit. Cleanliness is low. (Original) 사장님과 직원분들 모두 친절하셨지만 가격에 비해 양도 너무 적고 맛도... 또 재료 준비도 잘 되어있지않아서 파인애플 볶음밥 먹는데 파인애플이 없어서 그냥 볶음밥 먹었네요... 흠, 게다가 중국인인줄 알고 중국말로 인사까지 하심. 리뷰보고 근처로 밥먹으러 온게 여기였는데 찾아갈만한 곳은 아닙니다. 청결도도 낮고요.

    (Translated by Google) I saw the kitchen by chance, but I saw that I used fresh cooking oil every time I cooked, not the cooking oil I used. Naturally, the taste of fried rice, deep-fried rice and so on were all right. (Original) 우연히 주방이 보였는데, 사용하던 식용유가 아니라 조리 할 때마다 새로운 식용유를 부어 사용하는 것을 봤습니다. 당연히 볶음밥, 튀김 등 맛이 괜찮았습니다.

  • 5/5 K K. 7 years ago on Google
    Stumbled upon this great little gem hidden in a side street in old town. We immediately felt at home and decided to stay for the night. While the room was a bit above our budget the place felt so nice and welcoming with the friendliest hosts that we didn't wanna leave anymore. We are so glad we stayed since the room was really nice with aircon, en-suite bathroom and a new mattress. But more than that we've got to experience some of the most amazing Thai food we've ever had and we felt as though we were part of the owners' family. If you're looking for a warm and cozy place to stay and experience some amazing food and Thai culture this is the place to be!

    (Translated by Google) Very good treatment and very good food!

We are not used to the spicy and it shows ... they put a plate with white rice to calm and help but still we could not finish it. The other dish we ordered was Pad Thai and it was very good. The site is highly recommended for lunch / dinner (Original) Muy buen trato y muy buena comida! Pedimos curry verde después de ver las buenas críticas que tenía, y realmente estaba muy bueno, pero no pudimos con el... demasiado picante para nosotros! No estamos acostumbrados al picante y se nota... nos pusieron un plato con arroz blanco para ir calmando y ayudaba pero aún así no pudimos acabarlo.

    Really nice and quite place. We were looking for quality and something off the Beaton path to get away from the craziness. Think we found it with very pleasant people and food was on point. The curry was great but I made the mistake of getting low spice. Recommend getting traditional spice.
