A peculiar place that once was a school. very reasonably priced and a lovely setting in Tropical gardens.
Hotel Feature Tip:
Don't bother eating here apart from the inclusive breakfast. The restaurant needs improvement. Get there early for breakfast if you want your eggs freshly cooked. Otherwise they are left to sit out for a couple of hours. Lots of limitless high-octane coffe to crank up your day. (the place right across the road has better coffee though).

Like to swim - this is the place for you.
Great 25 metre pool. Quiet location. :Lovely gardens. Value for Money.
8.3
Stayed here twice, mostly because of the swimming pool - great for swimming lengths. The rooms are old converted classrooms and the walls are a bit on the thin side. The neighbour sneezed, I said bless you and she answered thank you. If you are feeling amorous realize that you will be sharing all your pillow talk with your neigbours. Otherwise a fantastic place to stay and lovely staff. The old man who books the tours is very helpful and his prices are as reasonable as anywhere else. Very clean place and water in GLASS bottles - very nice touch in a world full of plastic. If you like tropica; plants and flowers you'll love this place. Good Wifi too.
Restaurant Tip:
Nip across the road to Cakes n' Crumbs for decent coffee (espresso etc...) and very tasty cakes.

Great pool and garden, mediocre staff, clean rooms
Large pool, beautiful garden, clean rooms, clean bathrooms, nice setting for breakfast
8
We had rooms with outside bathroom, which were really outside, so musquitoes had a ball. The pool was clean and big, enough lying chairs around it, and offcourse a beautifull garden with little signs on the trees with its name. Breakfast was in an old barn, or rebuild one. The only really bothering thing in the breakfastroom was a big tv that was on foxnews or soccer in the morning. Strange for an otherwise strictly run and environmentally friendly resort.
Shopping Tip:
Your laundry can be done by a really nice family across the street, a little to the left.

Friendly service in lovely surroundings
Clean room, good breakfast, quiet surroundings
7.7
Hotel is situated just outside (about 2 km) the centre of Chiang Mai, for 60 baht the TukTuk waiting outside the hotel will take you into the centre.
Quiet surroundings, lovely garden. Breakfast has everything you want, service is friendly. Room gets cleaned every day. Would recommend it to anyone!
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip:
If you have 4/5 days extra, rent a motorbike and travel from Chaing Mai to Pai, Mae Hong Son, Khun Yuam, Mae Sariang, Chom Thong (Doi Inthanon National Park) and back to Chiang Mai again. A true bikers route with stunning surroundings! Check out the Mae Hong Son Loop on Google. If less time, Pai is the ultimate chilling place the check out. Not touristic, cheap prices and the people are SOO friendly! Lots of waterfalls to visit around Pai. A MUST DO!

good if you like swimming pools
5.7
Great if you like swimming pools. Too far away from town, nothing to do bar the swimming pool, rooms basic, meals expensive. pool full of folks coming from all around town just to use the pool.
Internet connection was abysmal.
Hotel Feature Tip:
make sure you bring a book.
