Beautiful property in great location!”
This property is absolutely beautiful! The area immediately surrounding it is run down but we always felt safe. It’s close to the Sunday market, the night bazaar and old town. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. We got a family suite and it was beautiful. It was spacious & clean and I loved the double vanities in the bathroom. Only downside to the hotel was the pool area is very small and right, thankfully we weren’t there to swim. It is a vegan-vegetarian hotel; we are not either of those but there are plenty of good nearby restaurants.

Excellent resort ”
The Away resort is ideally located just on the outskirts of the old city. It's an easy stroll to the Thapae gate. The resort itself is well managed and maintained. All the staff that we had contact with were professional, courteous, friendly and eager to help. We had a pool access room which was large enough not to feel cramped in and was well appointed. We enjoyed the breakfasts, plenty of variety. We also dined at the restaurant where we enjoyed the meal so much we booked a cooking class with chef Oi. We read one review where the writer stated the restaurant lacked atmosphere. This may have been the case for that reviewer, but in our opinion the food outshines any perceived lack of atmosphere completley. We would urge people not to be put off by a lack of diners, this in no way reflects on the quality and variety of the dishes. The Away being a vegetarian based resort is certainly well worth a stay and for us will be a repeat stay in the future. Peter & Kay

Excellent Location, Experience, Value”
I got the package without breakfast, which was fine because food is so readily available and cheap there. My airport transfer was swift and not outrageously priced (though more than Grab taxi). The staff couldn’t have been nicer. I received a free upgrade to my room upon arrival because it was low season. The cleaning service was good, and the room was lovely. Highly recommend if you’re in Chiang Mai! It’s a 5 min walk to the Old City, which is just far enough removed to be quiet and just close enough to be super convenient. 10/10 would stay again.

Retreat in City”
Enjoyable stay! Friendly & polite staffs at reception, we arrived a bit early but the rooms are already ready. welcome drink is special. Nice design & deco, we love the room with pool access! room is spacious, clean and bed is comfortable. breakfast is vegan, there's wide selection on drinks/ juice/ detox water/ almond milk.... everything is good. pool is nice and we took many photos here. hotel location is quiet but still walk-able to main gate & old town.

Very nice hotel!!! ”
The hotel is very clean and beautiful! Staffs are super friendly and welcome! When the staffs saw us arrived by taxi, they immediately ran out for welcoming us. The hotels also asked us to download an app which allows us to chat with the front desk at anytime by message which is super convenient! The hotel is very near to the old Town, within 5 minutes walking distant only. Highly recommend this hotel 😊

Perfect”
There's a reason why Away Thapae has a high rating. The staff was friendly, helpful, and let us check in early and check out late, which as you know, makes life easier when you are at the whim of flight times. The restaurant is also excellent. We had breakfast three times there, trying different menu items. Again, rare for a hotel, especially for vegans. Our room was clean and comfortable. We will stay there again. Thanks.

Exceptional”
Beautiful hotel in a fantastic location, close to the old city and markets. Staff were very friendly. Everywhere was very clean. The bed was huge and super comfy. Breakfast wasn’t great, but there were so many places nearby with good food that it wasn’t a problem. The pool was a welcome haven and escape from the heat

Gorgeous and quiet property to rest and recharge”
We regret to have stayed only one night at this wonderfully peaceful hotel where vegetarian concept also means no bar or alcoholic drinks served which certainly makes it stand out in the crowd as it will never become a hotel of choice for rowdy backpackers and thrill seeking adventure hunters. We loved the beautifully styled washrooms with mosaic floors, hot rain shower and bathtub that easily fits two, and a balcony where we enjoyed watching the sunrise in the morning overlooking the outdoor pool and garden from the 4th floor. The rooms are just big enough to give a feel of luxury of space. There is a free minibar selection though nothing we would enjoy from an array of sodas, and a welcome treat from the restaurant which certainly serves delicious food though we haven't had a chance to try it as we stick to fruit only. Speaking of, we could only wish there was more local produce on the morning breakfast buffet selection which we found rather limited and had to ask staff to bring out something extra from the kitchen to make us feel a bit less disappointed. When will Asian hotels recognise the value of their local produce and stop serving absolutely tastless commercial fruit from overseas such as table grapes from Australia or South Africa? Being in Thailand a few slices of papaya, mango and watermelon is a must - really more important than 3 types of bread rolls or cereals!!! And no, crunchy guava and unripe pineapple does not count, sorry. Other than that, the service team was super friendly and accomodating. They helped us with arranging transportation on several occasion and we were escorted to the room by a friendly front desk staff upon check in which is always a nice touch. Those who seek a prime location while still enjoying the back alley serenity of a village-like neighborhood will surely find this place a perfect spot while visiting Chiang Mai. We would return if opportunity comes!

Nice hotel, great location”
I went to this hotel with my family. The staff are friendly and the rooms are very nice and clean. Close to the old city and can walk to the night bazzar. Close to other local house but very quiet overall. Please pay attention to the streets they are narrow and dark at night. Make sure take taxi or small cars to go back to hotel at night

Great Service with good location”
Fantastic service by the staff - right from check-in to having our luggage in the room. it's seamless. Room is sizable and best with USB charging available (I forgot to bring my travel adapter). We have to leave the resort by 6.30am for Elephant sanctuary and requested them to pack our breakfast - just sandwich. Yet they exceed our expectation, they had pancakes and orange juices prepared for us. Kudos to them. Highly recommended to stay here.

Fantastic Location - near to Thapae Gate”
Easy to reach from airport via taxi at THB 150. Seamless check in with warm welcome from staff and luggage being sent to room. Sizable room with balcony access overlooking the swimming pool. Vegan breakfast included and they taste good. Compliments to the staff who packed our breakfast as we need to leave by 6.30am for elephant sanctuary tour (breakfast is between 7 - 8am). Kudos to their service. Highly recommended to stay in Away Thapae

Fantastic ”
No cons to this place. Everything was brilliant from start to finish. Staff were so friendly and attentive from the moment you pulled up to the hotel nothing was too much for them. Special thanks to Lek and the young lady on reception who’s name I didn’t manage to catch. Hotel grounds were spotless and well kept. Within short walking distance from anything you could need and a small drive to anything else. Fabulous stay!

Clean, nice staff, food is good”
Even i’m not vegan, but the food is good. Suggest to use Tha Pae soi 5 entrance instead of Kotchasarn Lane 1 Alley (near McDonald’s) side because it will be a bit scary from main road to hotel in the night, but overall is safe and looks very good. The room has just about right wind chill and good sunlight.

Great view and close to city centre!”
We booked the room with direct access to the pool. We love the view so much. Very clean and quiet tho it is just a 5-minute walk to the Tha Phae Gate. And it is super convenient since there are many 24-hours restaurants and massage centres around the resort. Overall, it is super nice staying here and I will definitely recommend it.

One of our best hotel experiences ever”
We've done quite a bit of traveling, and as 2 vegetarians, we were so happy with this hotel. The staff were all extremely nice, had wonderful recommendations for us on local experiences, always had a smile on their face, and we're quick to help. The restaurant had the best food we had on our trip around Thailand. We also did a cooking class with the chef, who made it customizable according to our liking, and explained everything extremely well. Overall our 4 nights there were the most enjoyable hotel experience we've had in quite some time and we cannot recommend this hotel well enough.
