Gade, the owner has to be the friendliest, funniest, most knowledgable host I have ever met. she went out of her way to make me feel at home and relaxed in Elliebum. her local knowledge is second to none and the food is to die for. Gade serves up a good combination of traditional Thai food aswell as good old... more

For travellers looking to move beyond the drunken mayhem of the usual backpacker grind, Elliebum offers unique style and class in the heart of the old city. Rooms are a beautiful mix of classic and modern Thai elegance. Air con, free wifi, cable TV, friendly staff - all walking distance from markets and temples. Highly recommend! more

Elliebum is conveniently located in the centre of Chiang Mai. Footsteps away from the Sunday Walking Street market, Wat Phra Sing and one of the best restaurants we ate at in Chiang Mai. Speaking of food, if you're not in a mood for looking for a restaurant, dine at Elliebum and you will certainly not be disappointed! The best of... more

Excellent guesthouse in Chiang Mai; Gade, the owner, makes you feel at home. On a quiet street, but a close walk to main city gate. more

Well, I guess I said it all in that long title of mine. This place is perfect. The only problem is they only have 2 rooms so best to book early and get a spot. Pancakes are awesome and big, the french toast is great too. Make sure to pick Gade the owner's brain about eating out, going out, etc.... more

I really can't fault Elliebum - it's a lovely place to stay. Gade, the owner, is what really makes Elliebum special. As other people has said, she really does go over and above what you'd expect someone to do when you're staying in their guesthouse. It's like staying with a friend. Gade has all the info you'll need for your... more
