Guest Ratings & Reviews
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The rooms are beautifully decorated and very comfortable, perfect for a family of three. However, some softer lighting would enhance the cozy atmosphere even more. I particularly enjoyed the large bathtub in the room.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were beautifully decorated and very comfortable, from the comfortable beds to the beautiful colonial style decor and soothing blue tile theme in the room. The room was large and in a nice Thai style with a lovely terrace overlooking the pool. The service was top-notch, with lovely and incredibly warm staff who were welcoming and kind, taking care of all my needs and even remembering the number of children in each room at the time of check-in. The location couldn't have been better, perfect in a quiet area between the historical center and the main streets of the nightlife and the night market. As for the dining, it was a delight, although it could have had a bit more variation, especially for breakfast. Overall, this hotel exceeded my expectations in many aspects.
I loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were bright and comfortable with direct access to the pool, although a cozier lighting would enhance the atmosphere. The service was exceptional with super friendly and helpful staff, offering a range of convenient amenities. The location was perfect, nestled between the historical center and lively streets. The dining experience was fantastic, but a bit more variety would make it even better.
The hotel is situated in a quiet neighborhood but still close to Chiang Mai City Centre, offering a perfect balance between peaceful surroundings and easy access to attractions. The rooms are spacious and well-kept, with a stocked minibar fridge and direct access to the pool, providing a comfortable stay. The service is top-notch, with friendly and helpful staff who respond promptly to any requests. The dining experience offers a wide variety of options, especially for veggie lovers, making it a delightful culinary journey. However, the price could be a bit higher for the value provided.
The hotel offers beautiful and extremely clean rooms in a nice Thai style with a lovely terrace overlooking the pool, but the dining experience may not meet high expectations. The service is super friendly and helpful. The location is perfect, nestled between the historical center and the main nightlife spots of Chiang Mai, but not having breakfast available is a pity.
