We stayed in a lot of different Homestay in Chiang Mai, but this was definitely the best place! Super friendly and helpful staf. Felt right at home. The location is perfect, very close to Old Town in a cute local neighborhood, with breakfast places around. The room was pretty big for a good price, with a lot of windows and fresh air. The whole place is very clean. Would definitely come back!

The owner is incredibly accommodating and friendly, and although she doesn't speak english, she makes a great effort to communicate using translator apps. The room was very comfortable and we had our laundry done at a very reasonable price. There is a nice balcony upstairs where you can have a drink or eat. The location is perfect and quiet while also being near the attractions of Chiang Mai.

Arku's House is definitely a Home away from Home. There are many food options around the area and its very safe and accessible.Apart from the great location, clean facilities, and reliable wifi connection (perfect for Digital Nomads) - what makes this place stand out is... Arku's House one and only... MOM! 🤍Yes, I call her Mom. heheI cant recall how many times Ive stayed at Arku's House whenever Im in Chiang Mai but each visit feels like the first time.Mom is always ready to welcome you with her radiant smile that lights up the whole house.She makes sure that you are okay and giving you fruits, snacks, any food that she have available! Soooo sweet. She always exerts effort to talk to you, start a chat, and ask how you've been or what are your plans and what not.Such a sweet, kind hearted soul.I just checked out from Arku's House cause imheading back to my home country, and the moment I stepped out of Arku's -- I already miss Mom. 🥺I will be back again and again and again.And im sure Mom will always welcomeme with open arms and ready to give that million dollar smile and loving hugs.Dont hesitate to stay here! 😊🤍

Rooms near the arcade, near Tha Phae, in the heart of the city, good prices, excellent service. Anyone who has business in the city, this is one of the best budget options in the Chang Moi area.

I don’t usually leave reviews but I liked this place so much I had to. It feels more like staying in a home than anything else. My second stay here I was personally treated with fresh fruit. Rooms are clean and cozy and the bathrooms are the cleanest I’ve seen in Thailand. I cannot recommend this place enough.
