The Opium Chiang Mai

Very good for it’s price. Excellent staff, ready to help with anything. We left a powerbank and they immediately shipped it to our next location with no issues! The hotel was clean, breakfast was good. The gym is not the best, it’s tiny and awkwardly located in the middle of the hallway so I didn’t feel comfortable using it. Also the location is not right in the center of the town, you have to take a cab.

-Very spacious and clean room.
-They provide all the basic amenities to cover one's need for this price range, even Microwave oven in each room and extra towels at the pool.
-There are also lots of trees which make the atmosphere very calm and relaxing.
-Many restaurants, pharmacy and a 7-11 nearby (also a famous Shabu restaurant called "Super Soup" which is crowded most of the time).
-The hotel is a few minutes ride from the old town but you can take a Grab taxi or Grab bike anytime.
-Staff are super helpful.
-In short, I really enjoy my stay there!

Excellent hotel staffed by wonderful service minded people. I was booked at Centara hotel but arrived in Chiang Mai at 7am and unable to check in early due to a lack of rooms. I called Opium and they had a room available and let me check in right away. I was planning on only staying until my room at Centara was available, but the room was so comfortable that I cancelled my other hotel reservation to stay here.
The hotel has a relaxing ambiance with the other guests being pleasant and respectful to one another.

They also have a tasty breakfast for only 100 baht and the staff were very helpful in assisting with my 90 day report at Chiang Mai immigration. I would highly recommend this hotel and plan on coming back the next time I am in Chiang Mai.

Best value for the price
Wonderful service, they helped me a lot and did their best about finding different things or services i needed, with a lot of patience and good will. Really professional.
Big, clean rooms
Nice pool, gym, and place
Interesting location, 2km or so from the historical and touristic center, but much more like immersive about seeing Thailand and Thaï life.

Old hotel which will need some renovation. Mattress was good, room big enough but could have been cleaner.
Prices are correct for backpackers who don't know the town.

Downright disappointing! The room was in a terrible state: the freezer in the fridge was impossible to close because of ice being everywhere; the water in the shower wouldn’t drain properly, hence flood the bathroom, which was dirty and rusty, the furniture was old, not maintained, and dirty as well; a bulb in the central lamp was burned out. Last and in this case most importantly: The bedding stank like a wet cloth. As a matter of fact, we are not too picky and really try to view things positively, but in “The Opium” simply everything was wrong. We stayed one out of planned 14 nights, simply because we were too tired to leave, and even this was too much!

There is no Opium here! Thank God!???? Spacious rooms, nice pool area with a small gym....restaurant is open in the AM. A little musky but nice soft bed. Good reception staff and maid.
