Reviews and Ratings
I had a lovely stay at the hotel. The rooms were comfortable and spacious, with a small balcony offering a tropical feel. However, the lack of heating made it quite cold during the chilly evenings. The service was friendly and accommodating, helping me with tours and holding my luggage after checkout. The location was excellent, within walking distance to the night markets and local shops. The dining options were varied, catering more towards Chinese and Asian tastes. Overall, a pleasant experience with a few minor drawbacks.
The hotel is set in a convenient location, close to everything I needed, although it was a bit of a walk to some attractions. The rooms were beautifully decorated in Thai style, but lacked balconies and required the curtains to be kept closed for privacy due to glass doors. The dining options were good, but the coffee could have been improved. The overall peaceful oasis atmosphere and clean pool added to the pleasant stay.
This hotel is a gem in the heart of Chiang Mai with above-expectation rooms, but the views might not be as great for some. The service was top-notch with helpful staff, although some receptionists could be more attentive. The location is perfect for exploring the city, but sunlight may be lacking in the afternoons. Dining in the lovely indoor/outdoor area was a pleasant experience, although the menu could be bigger.
