馬拉亞度假酒店(Maraya Hotel & Resort)

Hotel was quite far away from the centre area of Mai, so we often had to use Grab for a taxi. They did have bicycles to use though. We asked the hotel if we could hire scooters or motorbikes. They tried to ring round for us but we didn’t get them in the end. Breakfast was a set meal. There was a lot of food but we weren’t given a choice. Also, we had to tell them in advance the day before, what time we wanted breakfast which was a little bit annoying. The hotel itself is beautiful and right on the river. The gardens and pool area were very well kept and peaceful. It says it’s a resort but I wouldn’t class it as that. It’s small, no restaurant/bar area and no gym/spa. The girls on reception had limited English but tried very hard and were as helpful as possible.

Pleasant stay. Next to the river with nice view of temple. Lovely room with bathtub. 15 mins drive to old city.

This 6-year old hotel is situated on the left bank of the Ping River that snakes through Chiang Mai, and is about 12-15 minutes by car south-east of the Old Town. It is a smallish boutique hotel with only 18 rooms and suites. The rooms are fairly well-appointed and have most amenities required to make one's stay comfortable. The swimming pool area and the riverside garden are both charming and pleasant. The service standard is fantastic, with staff always ready to assist. Khun Praewa who seemed to be always about the hotel is an excellent help, with suggestions of restaurants and places to visit. She made our 6D/5N stay very memorable. There is free parking for 6 cars at the entrance of the hotel....first-come, first-served. About 90 metres away from the hotel on the same side of the road is a lovely restaurant called Paak Dang. We had all our dinners there! All said, a lovely property with an attentive service team. Please note though that there are no elevators for the two blocks of 3-storeyed buildings and thus, not convenient for persons with mobility challenges. There is a ramp from the parking area and is useful for prams and wheelchairs - there are several ground floor rooms. We look forward to staying here again.

Bring tons of mosquito repellent! Apply it especially during breakfast when you eat at the restaurant. Hotel should install a mosquito killer lamp or electric mosquito repellent to lessen those mosquitoes. Breakfast has 2 options - American and Thai. The staff will ask you for your choice of breakfast the night prior. Hotel location is about 10 mins from the airport but it is quite remote. There’s no convenience store nearby so you have to buy everything you need before you go back to the hotel. Staff are very helpful and accommodating. Overall, hotel is ok only for short stay if you need to stay in Chiang Mai town proper for few days.

Do not book here. I pre-paid for a 7 night rental and could not leave. Although the rooms are beautiful and modern, with great views of the Ping river, it all is negated by the relentless construction noise, coming from the restaurant remodel. It ruined my stay here. All day long, 7 days a week; hammers, buzz saws, loud noise from workers. Of course, no one told me of this when I booked or when I checked in. I soon found out. Also guests are reminded to wear masks, as I did, but 30% of the staff working did not. Curious. I do not recommend. You have been warned.

Beautiful and well-designed, the room is. spacious and cozy bed. The pool area offers a stunning view of the river and the white pagoda. Excellent location close to the night bazaar shopping and the Chiangmai airport. Highly suggested!
