Laluna Hotel and Resort, Chiang Rai
4.4/5297 Reviews
Amphoe Mueang Chiang Rai
The price of this hotel is too high! It is not far from Lan, Black Temple, and the city center. During the stay, except for our 3 Chinese, all foreigners. The bed in the room was super big and very comfortable. The room is spacious, comfortable and clean. The whole hotel is like living in a garden, very close to the swimming pool, and the water quality is very clean. The restaurant only has breakfast, no dinner. It's only 360rmb per night, it's really delicious!

The staff are so friendly and the rooms are clean and smells amazing 🤩 the location is okay if you have a motorbike. The breakfast needs more variety but the quality of the served breakfast was perfect and everything was fresh. Just one point thing i believe it will help more is that the location pin has to be updated because it was not very accurate and it is around 300 meters aprox.

Amphoe Mueang Chiang Rai
I arrived late at night at the bus station and took only a short ride (if I remember correctly less than 7 minutes) to the hotel. Got up to the room and enjoyed the chilling breeze of Chiang Rai (you can conveniently let the air in without letting the bugs in from their windows). The staffs were at the reception, ready to assist, when I came down to buy a toothpaste. Got a good night sleep, woke up, and ready to run with my business in town. I would recommend the hotel to those who want to save money and simply want a good, convenient sleep.

Spent a night here, the room has a mini kitchen and everything else is clean. No one at the apartment to check in, so you would have to contact the person for instructions!
