Excellent resort, very uniquelly designed. However, the best asset
are the staff. You feel like part of the family when staying at the
resort. Staff are very friendly and helpful in every way. Breakfast
is excellent. |

The hotel is lovely but distant from downtown area. Situated on the
bank of a quiet river, we could enjoy fresh air. It is suitable for
people who prefer the nature. We booked a standard room but the room
we got was in a better category. Breakfast and staffs were great and
impressive. We were the only couple during the stay!!! So, all staffs
were very attentive to us. |

This is a beautiful place; very quiet, very serene and the ambience
embodies everything of Lanna Thai culture. The service staff are very
accomodating, helpful and very warm despite speaking little English.
The rooms are actually gorgeous individual challets with lots of lovely
green foliage lining the paths, try to go during non-raining season!
The downside is the distance from the main city of Chiang Mai. It
takes about 30 to 45 minutes to get to the city, costing 400 baht
per trip. So a return trip will set you back about 800 baht excluding
perhaps 100 baht tip. Many city cab drivers does not know of this
place so have a map handy to give directions. Try to pre-arrange return
transport back to the hotel as many tuk-tuks (especially the 3-wheelers)
might find the long journey a challenge. Or consider renting a car
if you have a minimum of 4 in your company. The hotel is in the Saraphi
district, way down south away from the main city area. If Ban Tawai
(handicraft / furniture) is the main purpoe of your trip, then this
hotel is a good idea, it a only about 15 minutes away. Overall we
love this place but the travelling cost moe than we budgetted for. |
