Sira Boutique Hotel Review
Our first step was to research which boutique hotel could offer us the best value for money. We went through tripadvisor.com, as well as googling many other sites about boutique hotels in Chiang Mai, then we emailed the hotels that we had short-listed, and based on the replies we chose to stay at Sira Boutique Hotel for 6 out of the 10 days we were there.
One thing we’ve found is that if a boutique hotel or other business replies promptly and politely, it usually means that the person is friendly and good to do business with. We arrived at the airport at around 8am and a driver was waiting to pick us up and take us to the hotel. They gave us no problems for the early check-in and we also had an early breakfast on arrival.
Initially Grace was (very!) reluctant to stay as she found the bed quite hard compared to what she’s used to. I was ok with that as I’ve slept on far harder beds before. And while it did give her a bit of a backache the first nights, we made sure to treat that with a trip to the spa
The best thing about the hotel was the friendly staff! Everyone from the receptionist to the owners were very accommodating and helpful, and near the end of our stay I had a very interesting discussion with Robb (the owner), who bought over the hotel a few months ago and is in the process of making it a truly cozy boutique hotel. He explained to me about the current business situation in Thailand, the history of Chiang Mai, and a lot more!
After moving to our second hotel “The Field Village”, we missed the friendliness of the staff at Sira, and if we would have stayed longer, we would have gone back!!!




Hi Grace
Which spa did you go while in Chiang Mai ?
We went to several spas including the Urban Spa that we show in this video
since you have been to any spa in chiang mai , can you recommend a good spa ?
The best is to look around when there, they have everything from massages in the night market at 200 baht per hour to upscale spas at 6000 baht for a couple hours. Just grab one of the brochures about Chiang Mai and look at the different spas to see which you fancy
It’s good to hear they have friendly staff there at least
Yes, I dayed at the Sira Boutique Hotel for 3 nights and found the bed so hard that it ruined my trip to Chiang Mai, by back and shoulder got progressively worse.
Making matters worse, the staff cannot handle this problem, they basically say that each room has the same bed and there is nothing they can do about it!
In most hotels with hard matresses the management always finds a way to please the guest, here they argue with you about it.
Not recommended.
I would like to comment on the hard beds at Sira Boutique Hotel, I am the owner of Sira, Robb Hind, and would like to point out that our beds are medium-firm not hard. I would also like to point out that the “said guest” stood in reception telling guests not to check in, I would also like to point out that the “said guest” became aggresive and abusive towards our staff but stangely not to me !!, I would also like to mention that the ’said guest” placed a post on tripadvisor, very damning, but it was later removed, I have asked tripadvisor why it was removed and they will not tell me. The staff and I take all genuine complaints very seriously and act in a professional manner to resolve any problems ASAP.
Kind Regards.
Robb Hind.
