A lovely hotel , we had a deluxe room , the bed was comfortable , breakfast incl. which was great. It’s a short walk out to the main road, and about 10 mins from old town, the staff is excellent , it’s quiet and clean. Pretty spot to stay.

Melia Chiang Mai
Great hotel centrally located - great amenities and staff. Good selection for breakfast. If there was only one slight drawback - I felt the pool is slightly small for a hotel of this size.

Centara Riverside Hotel Chiang Mai
The pool was not as pictured, looked to be part of the deck under construction. Advertising Spa but no massage. Seems to be lack of employees. Okay for a quick night stay

The Experience Walking Street Chiang Mai
No idea how this hotel got a 9.2 rating other than how centrally located it is in the old city. First room was musty and had no windows, paid 500 baht a night on site for upgrade, the next room was better but bed was like sleeping on sheet of plywood. I prepaid 2 night but only stayed for 1. There ...
