I stayed at one of the hidden gems last year and honestly it was way more memorable than the big luxury spots. The service felt so personal lol

Anyone else think the iconic hotels are overpriced? I’d rather blow my budget on street food haha

No way, I walked past the Mandarin Oriental and felt too poor to even look inside lol. Great list though!

Bro, that riverside view from the boutique place is insane. Adding it to my bucket list right now

I tried a similar hidden gem in Chiang Mai and it was a total disaster—moldy towels haha. But these look legit. Anyone actually been to the second one?
