ABOUT US

About Pastell

 

The hotel’s name ‘Pastell’ is literally set to ‘tell’ the ‘past’ of northern Lanna lifestyle and culture through its fine architecture and decoration, while its soothing ‘pastel’ themed color would bring you a relaxing atmosphere. 

 

The moment you entering to the lobby, you can easily touch with the charms of Lanna heritages, featuring woven fabric and brass ornaments that perfectly blended with its modern boutique style of decoration. 

 

The renowned finely crafted brass ornaments locally called ‘Kua Tong’ which is one of Lanna signature handicrafts created by ‘Puak Taem’ craftsmen – the local residents of Chiang Mai old town – are considerably rare items this day.  

 

A chunky wooden chopping board locally called ‘Khiang’ which is used for ‘Kua Tong’ brass embossment is also presented as table top in the hotel’s lobby. 


The hotel’s logo, inspired by the main stupa of Wat Puak Hong – an old temple in neighborhood, denotes the passion in the Lanna heritages and its value that visitors to this ancient kingdom of northern Thailand should not miss.  This 4-storey modern boutique hotel, located in the center of Chiang Mai old town, offers 37 comfortable rooms with unwind atmosphere along with caring services at affordable price.  Pastell Hotel offers you a walking distance to many places of interest located in and around old town, such as Wua Lai Market (Saturday night market), Tha Pae Walking Street (Sunday night market), ancient temples like Wat Phra Singh and Wat Chedi Luang, as well as art galleries, shops, restaurants and street vendors gathered in this area.
