For a completely different Chiang Mai experience, Onsen @ Moncham takes you from the city’s historic charm to the peaceful mountains. Tucked away in the scenic Moncham area, this hotel brings a little slice of Japan to Thailand. If you’re after fresh and misty mountain air, tranquil views and a steaming onsen to soak in, this place has it all.
Inspired by traditional Japanese ryokan stays, the resort blends Thai hospitality with Japanese wellness. Rooms and villas are designed for relaxation with minimalist wooden interiors, shoji-style sliding doors and deep soaking tubs. Some come with private onsens, so you can unwind without leaving your room. The main natural onsen is the star of the show, filled with mineral-rich water to melt away stress and soothe tired muscles.
When it comes to food, the on-site restaurant serves up Japanese-inspired dishes with fresh local ingredients. And if you're up for exploring, Moncham is surrounded by rolling hills, strawberry farms and hiking trails that offer some of the best views in the region.
