B2 Chiang Rai Boutique & Budget Hotel

Start your Chiang Rai trip with ease by taking Sombat Tour's VIP Wiang Ping Bus from Mo Chit in the evening, arriving at Chiang Rai's second bus terminal at 7 a.m. From there, grab a Grab ride into the city for less than 80 baht. Check in to the B2 Hotel in advance, avoiding the 2 p.m. deadline. The room rate is just 315 baht per night. After packing up, head out for a hearty breakfast of khanom jeen nam ngiao and a large bowl of khao soi nuea. Both are just 110 baht. After we were full, we strolled around the city market and unexpectedly stumbled upon Wat Mung Muang, a beautiful temple hidden in the middle of a busy market. We then took a songthaew to the renowned landmark, Wat Rong Khun, which lived up to its reputation. We spent a delightful time exploring the area. Return to the city center to rest, and the next morning, we went to another highlight of Chiang Rai, Wat Rong Suea Ten, whose vibrant blue color contrasted strikingly against the sky. We ended our trip with a visit to the Kok River cafe, "Chiwit Thammada," which offers a peaceful atmosphere, a cool breeze, and a romantic view. We ordered a mango cheesecake, which made our eyes widen with the first bite. It was so delicious, I had to say it was over the top. This 2-day, 1-night trip was both worthwhile and relaxing, and I got to see Chiang Rai's charming side without rushing. Plus, I got a return ticket from Thai Vietjet, booked through a promotion on the Trip app, for just 340 baht (oh my god!). It was an incredible deal! Anyone who visits and gets a round-trip ticket at this price is guaranteed to have change left over for two tickets. #ChiangRai #TravelThailandHalfPrice #RecommendedHotel #ChiangRaiTravel #WatRongKhun #WatRongSueaTen #SimpleLife #CafeReview
