Travel Guide: Chiang Mai Old Town Luxury Pool Apartment – Kumamoto Home

Nestled in the cultural heart of Northern Thailand, Kumamoto Home blends the quiet comfort of a private apartment with the convenience of a central location, perfect for first-time visitors, family travelers, and digital nomads exploring Chiang Mai. Tucked within the leafy Dveing Santitham Condominium on Hussadhisawee Road, this apartment puts you steps from Old Chiang Mai’s historic temples while offering a peaceful retreat from the city’s bustling tourist corridors.

Hotel Overview

As a fully independent private apartment, Kumamoto Home is designed for longer stays and relaxed getaways, with thoughtful amenities that feel like home. The property boasts two inviting pools: a scenic outdoor pool open year-round and a dedicated shallow children’s pool, ideal for cooling off after a day of temple-hopping. For guests who like to stay active, there’s an on-site fitness center, plus easy access to hiking trails and a golf course just three kilometers away (for an additional fee). The full kitchen comes equipped with everything you need to cook local ingredients picked up at nearby markets: a stove, oven, microwave, refrigerator, toaster, and electric kettle. In-unit laundry saves on travel costs, and free property-wide Wi-Fi, Netflix, and a flat-screen TV keep you entertained on slow afternoons. Added perks include free private secured parking with an electric vehicle charging station, 24-hour security, elevator access, multilingual staff that speak English, Chinese, and Thai, and soundproofed rooms for a quiet night’s sleep. Both ground-floor and upper-floor accessible options are available for travelers of all mobility levels.

Nearby Local Attractions

Three unmissable Chiang Mai landmarks are all within a 15-minute drive of the apartment:

• Wat Phra Singh Woramahawihan: Located in the heart of Chiang Mai Old Town, just 2 kilometers from the apartment, this 14th-century temple is home to the revered Phra Singh Buddha image and showcases classic Lanna architectural details, from intricately carved gilded eaves to traditional mural paintings.
• Chiang Mai Gate Night Market: A 10-minute drive away, this open-air market is the best place to sample Northern Thai street food, from khao soi curry noodles to crispy pork rinds, and browse handcrafted textiles, silver jewelry, and souvenirs from local artisans.
• Doi Suthep-Pui National Park: A 20-minute drive from the apartment, this mountainous national park is home to the iconic Wat Phra That Doi Suthep, a hilltop temple with sweeping panoramic views of Chiang Mai, plus dozens of hiking trails through cool evergreen forest.

Travel Tips

Arrange a rental car directly through the property for easy access to outer attractions like Doi Suthep, and note that free parking is guaranteed with no advance reservation required. If you’re traveling with family, request the connecting room option for extra space and privacy. Stock up on fresh fruit and local curry paste at the nearby Chang Phueak Fresh Market, a 5-minute walk from the condominium, to use in your in-apartment kitchen. Always carry a bottle of water when exploring temples during the day, and dress modestly (cover shoulders and knees) for temple visits.
