"I had such an amazing stay at Secret Corner. The room and common areas are spotless, and the rooftop was such a great spot! I found myself spending my mornings on the rooftop doing work, and spending evenings on the rooftop socializing. The staff was also incredibly friendly and helped me plan some of my day to day itineraries. I would come back to Secret Corner next time I'm in Chiang Rai in a heartbeat."

"The front desk staff were very warm welcoming. Clean room & a comfortable bed, but the side table width was a little bit too small. The staff daily clean the common area & share toilet. Most important, it very close to the bus terminal 1."

"Stayed here for 2 nights ! The owners are amazing such beautiful people who go out of their way to do whatever you need breakfast is included and is a huge amount of food cooked on the property! If you’re looking for brand new, this is not your place if you’re looking for eclectic with a cool vibe, immersed into local culture this is your place super cheap for what you get ! Rented a scooter White and golden temple is about 25 min drive and a must see blue temple is about 20 min also very cool...
