The Balcony Chiang Mai Village โรงแรมบาลโคนี่เชียงใหม่วิลเลจ

Experience at the Balcony was good overall. The stay is comfortable - the bed, room size, balcony access, showers, etc. everything is a little dated but still decently clean. * for some reason, my room had a lot of mosquito despite keeping room door closed! Strange! The pool access is lovely and serene. The location by the road is a bit noisy —and the surrounding location is quite desolate, but overall would still recommend to friends who don’t mind being a little way from city center (mostly still accessible by grab). The staff are laid back and let you “make yourself at home on the premises.” Do note that the office closes by 6pm so no help after that! The front desk help “mon don” was helpful and kind. Since I needed help w my luggage due to medical concerns, he was very kind and willing to help me from the 3rd storey + transporting the luggage to the taxi. Appreciate the act of kindness.

Room was good, well equipped and clean. Didn’t realize the location when booked, outside of Chiang Mai (Even if not far) and quite noisy area, luckily when closing all windows in the room, it’s ok. Breakfast is available but limited on choice and you have to clean what you use afterward. Swimming pool is ok, lack of sun on it when we were there (February 2026). Employees are very kind. We tried the bbq restaurant in front of the hotel, their waygu beef is fantastic.

I only intended on staying the weekend at The Balcony but it was so perfect that I cancelled my onward rental accommodation and based myself there for seven months! This charming, villa-esque hotel is immaculately styled with a calming, oasis like pool at its centre as well as a convenient deck for meditation or yoga. I frittered away many a morning and afternoon here doing laps in the saltwater pool or lazing on the sun loungers. A good book is mandatory here! Furthermore, the people who work at The Balcony were kind, considerate and always accommodating and the on site kitchen is generously equipped with a plethora of breakfast items and good coffee offered each morning. My room itself had an abundance of natural light with vast ceilings and beautiful, wooden flooring. My gigantic bed, extremely comfortable mattress, the Moroccan styled tiling in the bathroom and the ample and luxurious bathtub were particular highlights of mine! I loved the location too; the Old Town was ten minutes away by bike and two excellent supermarkets were within a 10 minute walk away. Dangerously, there is also a stupendously good bakery (Nana bakery) across the road as well as a picturesque, weekend market nestled amongst coconut trees and lagoon like canals. All in all, I couldn’t recommend this place highly enough. I travel a lot and have stayed in many a hotel in my time, and The Balcony would be very close to the top of the list. Whether your stay be short or long, for business or for pleasure, I can guarantee you won’t be disappointed and I’m already looking forward to my next visit.

The Balcony Chiang Mai Village is a wonderful, calming oasis to return to after adventures in and around the charming city of Chiang Mai. Your awesome hosts P’Lah and Grace as well the warm and caring team they have assembled will make you feel like you’re at a home away from home. A steady rotation of world travelers ( many I spoke with are return visitors to the Balcony) have also provided me many hours of quality conversations around the pool or in the community dining room. Highly recommended, I will be planning a return visit soon. A big thank you to everyone at The Balcony.!

We booked a month while we looked for a condo, ended up staying there for 6 months! Beautiful rooms, cool people, pool, communal kitchen/dining area, fast WiFi. It’s further from town centre but Grab comes there very quickly as it’s in a main route. They also do scooter hire now. The balcony has many long term visitors which says a lot. We chose it over a condo as it’s easy to meet people. Highly recommended for a long stay, or a short.

Spacious rooms and comfortable beds with natural light. The pool is cleaned almost every day, and the public spaces are also thoroughly cleaned daily. Grace speaks English and Thai! There's safe parking for motorcycles under the hotel so they stay dry too. Everyone is very helpful and kind. And the aircon here is great!

Had a lovely stay at The Balcony! The location was perfect for me, everything was a 10-15min grab ride away. I loved being just outside of the centre but having affordable and easy transport to get places. The staff here is amazing, so accommodating and respectful. The room was bigger than I thought and the bathroom was my favourite! I thoroughly enjoyed the Lanna style architecture. It was also really nice to have the big shared balcony and a smaller shared one in front of your room (even if you don’t book a room with a balcony). The little trinkets in the room, were a pleasant surprise: the robes which were so cute and functional, the beautiful slippers, the little silver bowls and wooden/rattan boxes in the bathroom The pool is a plus but I only used it once as I wasn’t too sure about the quality of the water (personal preference) There’s a small podium with a little roof on the shared terrace that provides some shade: perfect for doing some yoga or stretching during the day! (there’s a yoga mat present) They also provide small breakfast items for free in the shared ‘canteen’: yoghurt, fruit juice, toast, condiments, tea etc. I extended my stay multiple times without any problems and would definitely recommend this place to anyone 🌸 Can’t wait to come back! ps: you have to check out the Coconut Market opposite the hotel!

The Balcony is a perfect “home away from home!” We have decided to make it a long term stay for a number of reasons: large poolside rooms, free breakfast, kitchen facilities, friendly and helpful staff, great location to visit the Old City, shopping centres and head out into National Parks. We’ve made wonderful friends through fellow guests and travellers and we have a great community spirit amongst both long term and short term guests. Highly recommended for excellent rates and an all round welcoming atmosphere.
