The place has great potential. Nice, big rooms, but pool closed for renovations, half the gym equipment not working, and construction noise outside the window during the day didn't help.

Quiet location by river but too far from town centre not walkable at all. Unfortunately swimming pool being refurbished and some construction work going on. Also wanted to charge 200 baht just for another room key. No shops or restaurants nearby.

Deception

Nous avons séjourné 3 nuits dans l'hôtel et qu'elle déception... En arrivant nous étions ébloui devant la beauté extérieur de l'hôtel ce sera l'unique point positif à notre séjour. Dès notre arrivé dans la chambre nous avons pu voir à quel point elle n était pas propre. Entre les murs et les portes tachés ainsi que les toiles d'araignée un peu partout... Ensuite pendant 3 nuits nous avons eu le plaisir d'entendre tous les soirs l'entièreté des conversations de la chambre à côté. Difficile donc de dormir surtout sur des matelas aussi dur. Sur nos trois semaines en Thaïlande c'est notre pire hôtel je vous encourage à trouver un autre hôtel à Chiang rai car je pense qu'il est possible de trouver largement mieux pour le même prix.

This facility is a first rate conference center away from the city with a nice view of the river. The room was like new, as was the entire campus. However, it is not a tourist hotel, it is a conference center.
