Hotels near Wat Si Ming Kaeo (Hua Fai), Chiang Rai

We had a comfortable 2 nights stay at The Riverie. Its location and the property provides for a peaceful surrounding & proximity to the tourist spots in the Chiang Rai municipality. It’s perfect for families with kids as it provides for a kids club, an aqua park and the swimming pool for the kids to play around. The property is on an island on the Mae Kok river. We thoroughly enjoined their breakfast buffet and their food menu at the Blossoms All Day Dining has many options even for vegetarians. And also availed the option to order lunch using the Grab mobile application from restaurants near the hotel or buy fruits just outside of the hotel. Their Christmas & new year decorations was enchanting. The staff were very professional and helpful. We had the view of the river, lawn & front of the hotel from our room on the 8th floor. The room was spacious with the basic amenities but surprisingly didn’t had a latch on the sliding washroom door and didn’t have an iron/iron board (not sure if it was available on demand). Overall, we were very much satisfied with our stay at The Riverie and would definitely stay here in future.

This Le Méridien was excellent. The room we booked was large and comfortable and had an attractive view over the pool and river. The grounds and facilities were excellent, and we enjoyed swimming in the infinity pool by the river. The staff were friendly and attentive. The buffet breakfast was also excellent, with a great deal of selection and friendly staff. It was well worth the addition to our original booking. It was a relaxing location for some down time. Our only comments would be that the food prices on site were expensive and the room might benefit from some updating, but we tend to like modern decor and current tech.

The Riva Vista hotel was beautiful designed property, we loved it all, the service was friendly, the breakfast buffet and the dinner menu were great, very delicious food, attentive service, on a wonderful setting it is just few steps from the Blue Temple, that makes it convenient, but far from downtown.

It was my second time to stay here as last 2 years (in 2023 and again 2025). Overall the poshtel is very good and perfect location. Hopefully I will come back to this property while I am hearing that there is being change in July 2025. A month of June, 2025 I would like to invite you to stay, be happy and good experience with this poshtel. Highly recommended.

We recently had a really enjoyable 3 nights at the Selene. We stayed in the family suite which was more than enough room for us as a family of 4 (including 2 young children) and we also loved the rooftop pool as a great place to unwind after a day of exploring Chiang Rai. Highly recommended, thank you.

Room nice and clean. Staff friendly. Good location.

We needed a 3 night stay in Chiang Rai, so we picked this hotel and found it was in a very convenient location in the center of the city. The lovely people at reception welcomed us with a drink and had our room ready for us. The room was large and clean. There was a variety of dishes for breakfast with good service. It was an excellent stay and I would recommend this hotel to anyone staying a short stay.

What a great find in Chiang Rai. We normally stay at the golden pine resort and that offers great value but I wanted to try something else. Other similar properties were and still are a bit over priced and i seek out the best overall value accommodation. Not the cheapest though. We usually stay one to foUr weeks so it needs to be right. The hotel is at the third bridge up the kok river with easy access by road. The river front location is very quiet and peaceful and surrounded by lush greenery. I spent some time by myself just relaxing and the food service provided by the restaurant is good value as well. We had a two bedroom suite with every living area, two bathrooms and another serviette toilet as well. The included breakfast is more Thai style but adequate with a fair amount of choice. Overall I would give it a good solid 4-4.5/5.

The owner is nice and helpful. We stayed on 4th floor but there is no lift, so he helped to carry my suitcase, big thanks for that. The shared bathroom is on 3rd floor.

The place is great but the location is really hide, I want use the pool in the morning before to check out but they were cleaning it until 11am so I just enjoyed for 30 minutes… check out is at 12pm. They offer coffee and cookies free and I had the breakfast alone… not sure if more tourists stayed in the place… I shared bathroom but I only used it, I like the glass water. No aircon but the fan is close to the bed, which makes it comfortable.
