My opinion :

If you are looking for accommodation near Wat Lok Molee, see this list of hotels near Wat Lok Molee.

Wat Lok Molee (or Moli) is notable for its large brick chedi built in 1527 by King Chettharat. In front of the chedi there is a beautifully decorated wooden viharn built in 1545. The ashes of several members of the Meng Rai Dynasty, the founder of Chiang Mai, were placed in this temple. Wat Lok Molee is aligned along a north-south axis when Buddhist temples are generally oriented more towards the East.

How to get to Wat Lok Molee ?

Depending on your location in Chiang Mai, you can easily walk to Wat Lok Molee, which is on the outskirt of Chiang Mai central square. Chiang Mai Smart Bus Line R3 stops in front of the temple. Otherwise, as always in Chiang Mai, there are the red cars that roam the city or the tuk-tuks (more expensive). Another enjoyable way to stroll in Chiang Mai is to rent a bicycle for the day.
