C O N C E P T   &   I N S P I R AT I O N

Tamarind Village is a unique and charming Lanna-style boutique property that nestles in the heart of historic Chiang Mai. Surrounded by ancient temples and quaint shopping streets, it takes its name from a magnificent 200 year old tamarind tree that shelters the hotel in a shady embrace. Its 42 guest rooms and 3 suites are decorated in a contemporary style that reflects the rich ethnic diversity of northern Thailand by using fabrics and patterns drawn from the various tribes of the region. 
 
Architect Ong-Ard Satrabhandhu, (National Artist, 2010) conceived Tamarind Village around a series of garden courtyards incorporating typical northern Thai architectural elements into the hotel’s overall design.  The result is a property that exudes a sense of place that is firmly rooted in Chiang Mai's unique heritage. Set back from the main road, a cooling bamboo archway lines the pathway to the entrance. Intimate, serene and relaxing, Tamarind Village is an oasis of calm and tranquility, the perfect base for exploring Chiang Mai and beyond.
