The Property — Nan Thara Place
Nan Thara Place is a reliable 3-star on the ring road, a 15-minute walk from the old quarter. The lobby feels clean, cool and unpretentious with tiled floors and a courteous front desk. Rooms are compact but practical, with decent air-con and laminate flooring. It suits budget-conscious travellers who need a clean, functional base for exploring Nan, without expecting charm or character.
Cronache di Nan
Nan was founded in the 13th century as one of the small muang (city-states) that later became part of the Lanna Kingdom. Its location in a high valley near the Lao border made it an important trading post for centuries, and the city retains a quiet, low-rise feel. The old town’s Wat Phumin temple, with its famous 'Whispering Buddha' mural, dates from the late 16th century, though most surviving structures are from the 19th-century Burmese and Lanna revival. Today, Nan is known for its relaxed pace, traditional wood carving, and a growing reputation among cyclists and temple enthusiasts. The city feels authentically northern Thai, far removed from the mass tourism of Chiang Mai.
Best Time to Visit
Guida completa di Nan →Best months
November to February — cool, dry weather with daytime highs of 28-32°C. Clear skies and comfortable evenings make it ideal for temple walks and cycling.
Peak / festival surge
October to November during the Nan Boat Festival (Loy Krathong period) and Chinese New Year (January/February). Hotel prices can rise 20-40% and rooms book out weeks ahead. Local festival events include long-boat races and lantern releases.
Budget shoulder season
March and early April — still dry but hotter (35-38°C). Fewer visitors and lower room rates. May is the rainy-season start, so you get discounts but risk afternoon downpours.
Weather & packing
Nan’s valley location traps heat and humidity in summer, so expect 30-35°C even in cooler months. Pack a light jacket for evenings and a sturdy umbrella or raincoat for sudden showers—especially outside the dry season.

Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Nan Thara Place, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the third floor at the rear of the building (away from the street). The upper floors reduce street-level noise from Nan's main road traffic, and the rear side is quieter as it faces the inner courtyard rather than 72/1's frontage.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the first floor, especially those facing the street. Ground-level rooms pick up noise from passing motorbikes, delivery vehicles, and street activity common along this arterial road in Nan town.
Best views
Rooms on the upper floors (3-4) facing the street offer a view of Nan's tree-lined main road and distant mountains, though with some traffic noise. Rear-facing rooms have a quieter outlook over the hotel's inner courtyard or neighbouring low-rise buildings.
Quietest floors
Floors 3 and above are quietest, provided they are not directly above the lobby or any common areas. Mid-level floors (2-3) are a good compromise if lift noise is a concern.
🔊 Noise notes
The hotel is on a main road in Nan town, so continuous motorbike and car traffic is the primary noise source, especially during daytime and early evening. Early morning (6-7am) there may be delivery truck activity. Minor lift hum may be audible near the shaft on any floor.
Insider tips
1. Park at the rear of the building if driving – it's more secure and quieter than the street-side area. 2. Request a room with a window that opens (not all may) to get fresh air, as the third floor rear rooms are less stuffy and you can air out the room without street noise.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available
