Alt_ChiangMai - coliving & coworking space

“I just finished a month-long stay at both Alt_Chiang Mai and Alt_Ping River and honestly, I loved it. As a first-time solo female traveler, I was a little nervous, but the team here—Khawn, Gee, P’cake, JJ, Cake, and the housekeeping crew—made me feel so welcome and looked after. They are genuinely the kindest people and always went the extra mile to help me out. You can really tell they love their jobs! A few things that made my stay: The Vibe: It’s a super intentional environment. There’s always something going on—morning, noon, or night—so it’s easy to meet people, but you can also just retreat to your room if you want some downtime. The Coworking Space: Great if you need to get stuff done. There are people working around the clock so it’s easy to stay focused alongside others, even when it gets a bit crowded during peak times. The Locations: Alt_CM is closer to my favorite cafes and nature spots on the west side, and since it’s smaller, it’s a bit easier to chat with people. Alt_Ping is much more spacious and quiet, so you just have to be a bit more intentional if you want to socialize. The Room: I stayed in an Ensuite Room. It was comfortable overall, though there was some noise here and there. For max comfort, I’d suggest going for the Ensuite Plus if your budget allows. Overall a wonderful experience and I’ll definitely be back. Highly recommend!”

“I stayed at Alt Chiang Mai for a month and honestly, I was so sad to leave. As a solo traveler, I was definitely nervous about how I’d meet people or if I’d feel isolated, but those feelings completely dissolved the second I walked in. The team here is incredible and they show you so much genuine hospitality that you feel welcomed immediately. I love each of them (Khwan, Gee, PCake) for how at home they made me feel. The space itself is excellent. The rooms are great, but the coworking setup is what really impressed me. The upstairs quiet area is actually quiet, which is hard to find, and having soundproof call rooms was a total lifesaver for my meetings. Everything is designed in a way that actually supports a productive workflow. What really makes this place special, though, is the community. The team goes above and beyond to make sure everyone is connected. There’s a private WhatsApp group for residents that keeps you in the loop, and they host a family meeting every week to discuss plans and organize things to do together. Between the weekly tea times, the community lunches, and the events they organize with their Ping River location, you have so many natural opportunities to get to know people without it ever feeling forced or awkward. My experience in Chiang Mai was so wonderful, and a huge part of that was because of this place and the staff. If you're heading to Chiang Mai and want a spot that is grounded, productive, and genuinely welcoming, I highly recommend Alt. I’m already counting down until I can return!”

“ALT_ChiangMai has such a warm and inspiring community! From the moment I arrived, I was surrounded by friendly, open-minded people who made me feel right at home. The community manager is amazing — always encouraging meaningful activities and events that help everyone connect naturally. The staff are kind, attentive, and create a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere every day. The coworking spaces are great — comfortable, bright, and perfect for getting things done. There are private call booths for meetings, quiet spots to focus, and cozy areas for chatting and sharing ideas. But what truly made my stay unforgettable were the people. I made some of my most meaningful connections here — with residents who quickly became close friends. I’d love to be back someday! 💛”

“As a professional community builder, I learnt so much from living at Alt_. These guys are the world class benchmark for community living and I experienced why first hand. Their processes all the way from pre arrival to checkout make you feel like you belong before you even arrive. The place attracts true remote professionals with a great sense of community, events, adventure and fun! The staff helped me run two events - one at Alt_ CM and another at Alt_Ping, seamlessly. Shoutout to Kwann, Gee, JayJay, Pai, Amber, Stephen and the silent humble captain that is John Ho Which one to stay at: -Both are great with their own advantages. Community at both rock. -Alt CM closer to old city/night market/Nimman vibes. Feels like a nice professional co-working/coliving vibe -Alt Ping a little further out, BUT with a very vibey 'Nomad Friendly District' rising up around it. More spacious, small university campus feel. Has sauna and ice bath Cannot recommend this place and experience more if you're a digital nomad looking for your tribe.”

“I had a great experience staying at Alt_ChiangMai for a few months. The rooms are nice and clean, and spacious enough to stay longer. The working space is great and has a variety of desks. The community is what makes this place so awesome. You meet a bunch of different people from all over the world, and have a great friend group to hang out with while staying in Chiang Mai. The staff, especially Khwan, Gee, and Cake, were great and the events and activities they put on are excellent. I’m looking forward to my next visit!”
