This is infact the second time we have stayed at this hotel , the
first time was on honeymoon and we had a satisfactory experience but
unfortunately this time will be the last due to the terrible levels
of customer service received on this trip and outrageous over charging.
On our second night in the hotel I turned on a tap in a normal manner
and the appliance broke off into my hand spraying water everywhere,
we informed staff and they very curtly informed us that we would have
to move rooms and pay for a new tap! We tried everyway to argue that
the hotel must take responsibilty for appliances but they insisted
that becuase the tap worked before we used it and was quite new, we
must have broken it, in the end we had to pay over ?40.00 or face
criminal charges!! It was even more frustrating as every quote they
gave us for the tap increased by the day?! We asked to hotel policy
and there was nothing relating to this kind of situation, staff admitting
that this was the first time this had happened and they were not sure
how to deal with it!! We asked to speak to a manager and told there
was not one available at any time. We had paid in full not expecting
there to be any problems , so we tried to check out early and told
we would also be charged a full nights accomodation as a fee! After
this we requested late check out and were quoted a price of ?15, however
upon check out were charged ?30 !! they explained this was a mistake
and again there was no reasoning with any of the staff and we were
obliged to pay as we had a plane to catch! This whole experience was
frustrating and stressfull and ruined our time in the city. We could
not recommend this hotel and in our opinion feel that if you want
a relaxing time and peace of mind you should stay elsewhere, either
that or dont touch the taps!!! |

A nice looking place with beautifull rooms. We had bad luck with roomservice.
Returning late in the evening from a long day we found the rooms not
done, o. k. may happen. Someone was send to fix it but not well done.
No compensation for that and that is poor management because the hotel
is not a cheap place to stay. I will choose a new place next time. |

It s a pleasant place, an oasis close to the Old Town from ChiangMai
(only 5 minutes to walk). Very quit. Rooms are clean, the pool need
to be renovated. No breakfast-buffet at this time (maybe it depends
on the quantity of guests). |

An excellent hotel-a quiet enclave from the bustle of the town though
only a short walk from the old gate and the old town and an easy ramble
down to the night market. |

We enjoyed our stay a Karinthip in Chang Mai (4 days). The hotel is
almost like a resort, with a very nice pool garden surrounded by the
nice appartments, even though the hotel is located in the center of
the town. You have only 5 to 7 minutes walk to night market. Rooms
are clean but small. Buffet breakfast is ok, and staff are friendly,
but the service is not world class. We ordered a taxi transfer to
the airport (10 minutes) and we were told that the price was 800 bath.
Instead we found a taxi-bus outside the hotel (150 bath). The staff
is not very helpful to help you arranging tours, and the service is
expensive (hotel taxi, busses, etc). But the location, rooms and pool
is very nice for a family with kids. |

Karinthip is hard to find in ChangMai. Other than that we had a great
stay. The room was nice, not to big by the way. The restaurant served
nice food. Staff was very friendly! Location of Karinthip is in the
center of Changmai. Easy starting point for your city hikes and trips
to e.g. The Night Bazaar and all the restaurants. We would stay here
next time we go to Chang Mai. |

Clean hotel and pool, very central location but hidden from the main
road. Breakfast is poor. The hotel looked after my bags while we went
off hiking for 3 days at no cost and were obviously used to doing
this for people. I found the staff s attitude rather unfriendly but
that may have been the language difference. It would not put me off
staying again. |

Stunning - an oasis of calm so close to the city walls and night market
but so quiet you d never know just how close you were. Room was the
cleanest we stayed in. Pool was lovely, great breakfast. Thank you. |

Nice location, away from street noise. Good sized pool. But rooms
are spotty and need new paint/refreshing. Also, front desk runs hot
and cold re: friendliness/helpfulness |
