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!
Absolutely incredible stay at Alt Chiang Mai – I honestly didn’t want to leave.
Gee, Cake and Khwan were outstanding from start to finish: warm, welcoming and always going out of their way to help with anything I needed, from small day‑to‑day questions to local recommendations and logistics. Their energy created such a friendly, homely atmosphere that made it easy to focus on work, relax, and connect with other guests.
The coliving and coworking spaces are comfortable, well designed and perfectly set up for remote work, with fast Wi‑Fi, plenty of spots to sit and work, and a really calm vibe. The location is also super convenient, with great food, cafes and everything you need within easy walking distance.
I’d highly recommend Alt Chiang Mai to any digital nomad or traveler looking for a welcoming community and excellent place to live and work – huge thanks again to Gee, Cake and Khwan for making the experience so memorable
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!
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.
Hipster-looking place with large working areas and beautifully designed rooms — everything is well maintained with great attention to detail. The location is excellent.
But what truly makes ALT special is the team: Khwan, Gee, Cake, Lee and the community managers. They are genuinely good listeners and always do their best to help with anything you need.
I stayed for about a month and a half, and the culture is what stood out the most. From the moment you arrive, you feel at home — part of a friendly, respectful and easy-going group. ALT attracts a really lovely mix of nomads.
If you need absolute silence, just know the common areas can get lively at times, but nothing unreasonable — just the natural energy of a social co-living space.
The owner, John, has built something rare: a place where community grows organically. No wonder so many people return.
Location, rooms and facilities were spotless. But what really stood out was the incredible community. Anyone can open a coliving/coworking space. But blessing it with a soul and such a dynamic community is not to be taken for granted. Already looking forward to my next stay. Thanks to all staff and community managers for making my stay something extra.
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! 💛
I had an amazing stay at this coliving space in Chiang Mai! The atmosphere is super friendly, clean, and perfect for remote work. The community vibe makes it easy to meet people, but it’s also quiet enough to focus when you need to.
Special shoutout to Gee and Khwan — they were incredibly kind and helpful throughout my stay. From quick responses to any questions to making sure everyone felt welcome, their warm hospitality really made a difference.
Highly recommend this place for digital nomads
