The Empress Hotel Chiang Mai

The Empress Hotel Chiang Mai

10/10 Excellent
"I really enjoyed my stay the staff were excellent. The rooms were nice. The breakfast buffet was really good. A couple things I didn’t like was you had to pay to use the safe in your room. I also wish they had better dining options. They had a very limited menu in the restaurant. But other than that, my day was very good."
