Lanna Oriental Hotel

The staff was very kind and helpful. We got all sorts of accessories to make the stay comfortable (ear cotton, tooth brush, sleepers, robes, daily, etc). They also agreed to keep our big laugage when we went on few days trip after checkout, which is beyond!

Supernice. We got a great room on the 4th floor. Bed and linnen were supersoft and comfortable. A bit funny layout of the room with the bed on the floor (think Japanese style). To get in to the bathroom, you had to take a step over the corner of the bed. :-) Many windows with almost no obstructed view if the mountain and part of the old town. (our room facing south/west). Great quite AC. Good pressure and warm water in the shower (though they seemed to turn it off to a minimum during late hours/night). A nice pool (did not try it though) A small gym, which I would barely call a gym, but, there is one nonetheless. Massage on site (did not try) Friendly staff always smiling and greeting you upon arrival. Clean rooms and other areas Amazing and fresh breakfast with a wide range of goodies. Location great within the old town walls (looks like a square on a map, and hotel located north west corner). Within this square it feels a bit calmer and relaxing compared to outside the walls. Walking distance to restaurants, shops, temples and attractions and not least to a 7-Eleven (which is key to survival in Thailand).

Pros: Excellent Location: Just a 20-minute leisurely walk to the old town square, with several temples nearby. Beautiful Room: As depicted in the photos, the room was stunning and the bed was comfortable, though slightly low to the ground. Guests with knee or back issues should check the bed style in advance. Delicious Breakfast Buffet: A wide selection available from 7 AM to 10 AM. If you're starting your day early, the staff will provide a takeaway breakfast box. Helpful Staff: The hotel and the nearby café offered great local recommendations and were very accommodating. Great Room Facilities: Included a kettle, TV, room service, fridge, and minibar for added convenience. Pool Perks: Enjoy a complimentary drink by the pool upon arrival. Recommended Activities: Zabb-E-Lee's cooking class (pick-up provided) and Chai Lai Orchid for ethical elephant experiences and bamboo rafting! Night Market: Vibrant weekend markets with affordable prices in Old Town square, especially compared to the southern regions. To Eat: Try Coconut Shell and Kat's Kitchen for cheap and delicious meals. Overall, this hotel provides an excellent experience with minimal drawbacks. Highly recommended!

The staff and owner were lovely. They set out activities for folks to do related to the lantern festival and were very welcoming. Wonderful location, I could easily walk all over old town and only a 20 minute walk to the mall area. Several Wonderful places to eat or grab a treat with a 5-10 minute walk.

As the location is on the most busy street of Chiang Mai, you do not notice this at all inside the hotel (in room, and other area's). That was not expected so a big plus. Good facilities (although basic breakfast- cereal, fruit, packs of yoghurt). Gym is basic but the material is OK. Pool is great although some green residue (cleaning?) in the pool; algae? Beds were so big I haven't seen my partner during the night. Very comfortable.
