Nice and close to everything
The location in nice and quiet, very close to the Thapai gate on a 5 minute walk, also the old city is very close too. Plenty on Hood food places, bars, temples & night markets nearby too. This hotel possibly has the coldest pool in Thailand due to it being permanently under a roof so always in the shade. Only downside I think is the breakfast is quite basic quality, the juice is maybe from concentrate or watered down. I would still definitely stay here again though.

Greaf location & value for money
The hotel is on a quiet street. Within 10 min walk to the Tha Phea old city and nearby night markets. We had a grand deluxe room which was big and clean. Breakfast was decent. Great value for money for a 4-star hotel in a good location.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The staff was pleasant and the restaurant food was good. The location worked out great easy walking distance to everything. Or super easy to catch a grab. We left from here to a 5 star hotel in Phuket and prefer this one instead. They are doing a great job and would recommend staying here.

Chiang Mai trip
Good check in, bedroom condition was brilliant, cleanliness was excellent throughout the hotel. Service was just ok, and they didn’t do anything outstanding. Breakfast was underwhelming and fairly limited choice but what they did have was good.
