The Riverie by Katathani

Amphoe Mueang Chiang Rai Chiang Rai|1.27km from city center
This hotel is good value for money , kids pool and water park good for children . Restaurant food cheap and good quality . I have a picky toddler who only drinks freshly squeezed orange juice . Only problem is that it’s impossible to order a freshly squeezed orange juice . They only have orange juice from a bottle and they tell you it’s fresh , but it’s not , I ordered again then they give me orange fruit not juice . So if you have orange why you cannnot squeeze the juice .

Riva Vista Riverfront Resort Chiangrai
4.6/560 Reviews

Riva Vista Riverfront Resort Chiangrai

Amphoe Mueang Chiang Rai Chiang Rai|2.05km from city center
The hotel is very new and has a nice view on the river bank. It may be a bit noisy during the day when there are cruise ships, but it is very quiet at night. It’s a 5-minute walk from the Blue Temple and provides free bicycles, which is very convenient! The hotel waiters don't seem to be very enthusiastic about Chinese tourists and hope to improve. There is a riverside Western restaurant not far away. The environment and products are very good. It only takes about five minutes to walk. It is recommended as a five-star restaurant.
Chainarai Riverside Recreation Centre
4.3/5106 Reviews

Chainarai Riverside Recreation Centre

Amphoe Mueang Chiang Rai Chiang Rai|2.08km from city center
Chainarai Riverside Recreation Centre is an underrated 5 Star hotel which will blow your mind! The hotel is huge with vast grounds, multiple parking lots, and lush tropical greenery. Located beside the Kok River, it is a grand architectural marvel of well appointed rooms, suitable for solo travelers, couples and families. The two bedroom suite has a King bed with bathtub, twin beds with rain shower, a living room, 3 TVs, 3 bathrooms, 3 ACs, ceiling high wardrobes, 3 huge balconies with full riverside views and amazingly firm comfortable beds. The building materials and fittings of the newly renovated hotel are of a quality that surpasses even 5 star hotels. The buffet breakfast is included in the room rates and has a generous menu to get your day started. The salad bar had the freshest vegetables I have ever eaten in any hotel....or restaurant. This hotel screams CLEAN, CLEAN, CLEAN...you can practically walk barefooted everywhere! For USD89/3,000 THB a night for the suite with breakfast (USD33/1,130 THB for Deluxe King), I'm wondering if they priced the room rates wrong, as other 5 star hotels would cost 2-3 times more...and their room size would not even be as big (112 sq m for the Suite, 39 sq m for King). For a peaceful and relaxing stay in Chiang Rai, Chainarai Riverside is the ultimate luxury getaway.

Laluna Hotel and Resort, Chiang Rai

Amphoe Mueang Chiang Rai Chiang Rai|1.37km from city center
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!

Mpower Chiangrai

Amphoe Mueang Chiang Rai Chiang Rai|2.36km from city center
At the time, this hotel was chosen because it was closer to our own address in Thailand! On the morning of check-in, we went to the hotel first. Would you like to check in early? However, the reply from the hotel is that they did not receive any information about our hotel reservation! Let's check it ourselves! We have mail! They said it was her home, but they didn't receive the relevant information! Can't give stay! In the end, they found the hotel order themselves! In the afternoon, when we went to check in again, the front desk clerk gave us a room that had not been cleaned yet! Finally, we went downstairs to change the house number. The answer from the front desk was that she got it wrong!

Sann Hotel

Amphoe Mueang Chiang Rai Chiang Rai|0.31km from city center
I wasn't expecting much based upon the price I paid and having never heard of it. Whoa. From being greeted at the lobby, receiving a lovely welcome drink along with fast and efficient check in, I was wondering if I was in the right place. I was thoroughly impressed. Upon entry into my room I was again surprised. The room was much larger than the pictures let on. The doorman was great and we ended up running into each other one night at a pub and had a few laughs. Next came breakfast which was perfect. Had something for everyone. The Sann will now be my hotel of choice in the CR area for future trips. Thank you to the wonderful staff for making the trip memorable.

Diamond Park Inn Chiangrai & Resort

Amphoe Mueang Chiang Rai Chiang Rai|0.81km from city center
A quiet and tranquil environment, very peaceful likewise in a garden with nature. Services tip top from receptionists down to room cleaniness. Good breakfast for east and west, with fresh salads and fruits. Need to walk for 5 minutes to main street near the night market via a back door alleyway. From main entrance about 10 minutes. During the day via backdoor alleyway but after dusk is a challenge for some. To resolve can use bolt private hire for 65 Thai bahts one way in the night. I try it and the alleyway was well lighted and was less threatening. There is a mini mart along the way. Stayed three days and extended two more days, a total of five days given ideal conditions.

Maryo Resort

Amphoe Mueang Chiang Rai Chiang Rai|1.49km from city center
Almost everything here is great. Lovely grounds, clear pool and everything is exceptionally clean. Breakfast is very good and staff are pleasant. The only downside is location and even that is not a huge issue. Walking to the centre would take about 15-20 minutes but there are also a number of shuttle times. These are mostly morning and evening with a gap in the middle. As I say, this may not be an issue for everyone but overall this is very good value.

The Legend Chiang Rai Boutique River Resort & Spa

Amphoe Mueang Chiang Rai Chiang Rai|1.61km from city center
La Casa Italian Restaurant at The Legend Hotel in Chiang Rai ... This isn't my first revue of this establishment, as my previous visit with my wife about 2 years ago was so disappointing, and I vowed to never go back. ( My background is in the Hospitality Industry, in various roles but mainly as an Executive Chef.) Well, NEVER say never! Most recently I was extremely surprised when I received an email from the General Manager. Apparently he has been working at the resort for about 9 months and was going through some old reviews and came across my scathing review. I must say, I was intrigued, so upon reading his email he had mentioned that he was very interested in having my wife and I come and give the establishment another try. This sort of thing just doesn't happen here in Thailand. So needless to say we went back last Friday night and boy were we impressed! The service was impecable as well as the food. We ordered the Beef Carpaccio, it was heavenly. Our mains were a Roasted Lamb Shank with creamy polenta and a medley of garden fresh vegetables. The second dish was a Veal Marsala served with creamy mash potato, and garden vegetables. For dessert we enjoyed Banana Fritters with ice cream and a wonderful Panna Cotta. All through the evening the service was second to none and was such a momentus evening that we have since vowed to return again soon. What really impressed me wastheoriginal contact made by the General Manager (Eric) and his genuine demeanor. He actually really cares about his client and wants to make sure that their experience is better than their expectation. Thank you Eric for your loveof our industry and for giving stellar service.

I have stayed in 7-8 hotels I. Chiang Rai, and I think this is one of my favorite. Easily best bang-for-your-buck. The pool was a little dark, but once you get I. You can tell it’s the color of the tiles. The water was clean! The breakfast was pretty and had a nice spread. I really liked their Lychee Juice and Strawberry Juice!
The Imperial River House Resort, Chiang Rai
4.5/543 Reviews

The Imperial River House Resort, Chiang Rai

Amphoe Mueang Chiang Rai Chiang Rai|1.76km from city center
I can no longer remember how many times I have stayed at the hotel. It is still our favourite, even if it is small and a bit old-fashioned. Even so, the river, the pool and the location are still my favourite places. It is true that there are other hotels, more luxurious, modern, with more facilities, on the river that can offer the same, but they are much bigger and always noisier. The rooms at IMperial are super spacious and we have everything. The only thing I would like is that at least, after having stayed there almost 10 times, we feel like they should be a little bit more attentive with us trying to provide the room we like and make our stay even better. Even so, we will continue to go there and Chiang Rai will remain one of our favourite destinations and places.

This small boutique hotel in Chiang Rai is perfectly placed in the city and makes getting anywhere so accessible. From our arrival to our departure the staff were professional, courteous, friendly and accommodating. They were first rate and added to an amazing stay here. The pool area was fabulous and after a day of sightseeing was a welcome respite from the heat. The restaurant was also fabulous from the morning offerings for breakfast to lunch and the dinner menu it was a fabulous place to have a meal either out in the courtyard overlooking the pool or inside. Again with top notch staff. The room was simply fabulous as well. We had a junior suite room and it was spacious, comfortable and the decor was Thai traditional but the bathroom was gorgeously created with stunning tiles that just added another dimension. As mentioned the staff were so helpful at every turn and even offered on a number of occasions to drop as the night markets which was so kind and not part of the advertised service , even though they do offer a shuttle to the airport on the day of departure. This was a fantastic stay and I cannot rate it highly enough, if you are going to Chiang Rai please stay here I am sure you will not be disappointed.

Hi Chiangrai Hotel

Amphoe Mueang Chiang Rai Chiang Rai|0.59km from city center
This was in a good location, close to the market and bus station. The place was very clean. Each person was provided a bottle of water in the fridge. There was a freezer as well which was great. Breakfast was good with a nice selection. They even had free bikes you could rent. They also had a self serve washer which was 40THB and dryer which was 60THB. There was a small pool in the lobby that was only open from 8a-8p. The only negative was that it required a 500THB deposit in cash which could be a problem if it's your last day in Thailand. For those familiar with hotels in the US, it's comparable to one of the nicer Comfort Inns.

This hotel has had a major makeover! It's a large hotel where sections have been refurbished. We stayed in a Grand Deluxe pool Access room that was big, clean, comfortable beds and direct access to the pool. It was great for the kids and easy for us. The best part of our experience was a staff member named ”Fah”. Far was awesome and went out of her way to make sure all our needs were met and went out of her way to make sure we enjoyed our stay at this hotel. I would recommend this hotel to all types of traveler and will definitely be back soon.

B2 Chiang Rai Night Bazaar Boutique & Budget Hotel

Amphoe Mueang Chiang Rai Chiang Rai|0.87km from city center
The B2 Night Bazar Chiang Rai is very easy to reach from AH1. Since the hotel has no seat, we decided to have a room on the 1st floor with Twin bed, since the double beds were already forgiven on arrival day (sunday). The room and bathroom are small. It has a mirror, small TV with bad signal, water cooker, soluble coffee, 2 bottles of water, refrigerator, small pump with hocker, bath tools, air conditioning and clothing. The storage areas for 2 people with baggage are insufficient for Us. The WiFi signal is good. The room is held in grey (visual concrete), the transferred electronic wires are painted without pleasure with grey color. The staff was friendly at the check-in, the meeting with the cleaner was friendly. The bed lakes were changed, unfortunately, you should consider to be new, since there were visible places. The cleanliness in the room solara. The night of Sunday is 640. - Monday 610. - THB plus deposit 500. - THB for the keycard. Unfortunately nothing for us.

Pros: 1. Very well designed and decorated. Nice room, restaurant and corridor 2. Super Location: Right in front of the clock tower. 7 Minutes walk to the night bazaar. 3  Bed are super comfy. 4. The tollitories provided are from the Thailand  brand “ Thann”  5. Breakfast is not buffet, but provide a great variety of choices Cons: 1. No separation of shower for the King Bed room. 2. The smart TV is a big joke. Never works. Can't even cast on the TV and the YouTube app is super slow. 3. The staff are friendly, but not proactive and helpful enough.

Probably the cleanest hostel I've been in so far. Shoes were forbidden throughout the hostel and all toilets and showers were cleaned regularly. There was an area where cookies, water, tea and coffee were provided free of charge. The location was really great, there were lots of restaurants and bars right next to the hostel, the night market and the bus station were less than a 5-minute walk away. I was super satisfied and can recommend it to anyone visiting Chiang Rai. 10 out of 10 👌👍

3.8/542 Reviews

Wangcome Hotel

Amphoe Mueang Chiang Rai Chiang Rai|0.2km from Clock Tower Chiang Rai
Excellent location, quiet and yet a short walk from everything: bars, restaurants and massage shops surround the hotel and the night market, Saturday market, clock tower and bus station are all very near. The breakfast buffet was decent for a hotel in this price range. The hotel itself is like stepping back in time. It would have been very classy 35 years ago, but now the elegance has aged. The control panel next to the bed no longer turns on music and you have to work out what the other controls do. (e.g. the switch marked ”TV” operates the bedside light.) Rooms are large with a decent bathroom with a proper bath. I stayed there twice, in a Superior room (the lowest level) and then a Deluxe. While the Deluxe had a few tiny improvements in fittings, the main advantage was having a decent number of power points. The Superior had no spare power points whatsoever in the bedroom, just one in the bathroom. Fortunately, the maid was able to give me a power board. (She didn't know much English, so I showed her a picture of one on my phone and she raced off and got one.) Then I was able to plug in everything via the socket the TV uses. The pool is strange, cold and stark, surrounded by concrete walls and situated on the ground floor. It's not even obvious how to get to it! There's one entrance through the restaurant and another from the second floor down a big flight of stairs. The only real negative is the wifi. It's atrocious and extremely weird. I had multiple devices connect to the same access point, yet get directed by DHCP to different routers! My phone always connected to one that worked (slowly), but my other devices would mostly get connected to one that didn't do anything. Of course, the front desk staff had no clue what was going on. Broadband on your phone in Thailand is cheap (150 baht/month for AIS 4G) so it's not the big deal it once would have been.

We arrived around 9 pm, taxi from airport 160B (the company left out of airport doors). Very friendly front staff who checked us in fast and then told us about the town and gave us a map. They told us about the walking markets, the Saturday one was still on and recommended for us to go, we did. We had a king room, 2nd floor, with a view alongside the pool. Rooms along the pool are in shade all day which is nice if you want to sit on the balcony in the afternoon. Room was very clean, nice king bed, TV, fridge (with bag of chips, peanuts, ice tea and Pepsi inside, included with room price, refilled as needed), 4x500 ml glass refillable bottles of water to start, kettle, tea/coffee, safe, good lighting, work desk with little desk lamp (real nice touch), power outlet at desk for charging and overall lots of room for our luggage. Curtains did a good job of keeping the room dark. Good wifi also. Elevator and stair access to all floors. Breakfast was wonderful, we absolutely enjoyed everyone. Some days (weekend) they have an egg station with ham and bacon. When not, they have a menu that offers complete egg dishes as well as Asian and local items. Also every day there is a nice selection of fresh fruit, salad items, breads, juices, milk, water, teas and coffee machine which make several types of coffee including cappuccino. You can eat inside or outside (if available and warm enough). Loved the breakfasts for the Asian items, khao soi, shrimp siu mai and fresh made rotis were our favourites. They have a nice pool with loungers but we never used as busy all day then enjoyed sitting on the balcony with a cold drink overlooking the pool. The location is great also, the Saturday night walking market it very close, less than 5 mins walk. The Night Bazaar is maybe a 10-15 min walk depending on the route taken. There is a 7-11 about 5 mins walk also. Fruit market around the corner. Restos nearby too. The front desk staff was friendly and very helpful, especially the one young man we chatted with often when he was on shift. When leaving, he arranged a complimentary transfer for us to the bus station, very nice, great employee. Doing a little for the environment, we often have our room made up every second day. We do ask for whatever would normally come with a make up, water, coffee/creamer, TP if needed and the hotel is usually happy to do that. We don't have fresh towels every day at home, why would it be needed on vacation. One of the best all round hotels, we've ever stayed. It was a great place, would gladly stay again if in the area.

The style is unique and brilliant. The room area is also very large. I booked it one month in advance. The store gave a room 202. Both walls of the room are windows. It's so awesome! It is better to book in advance, and foreign hotels will reserve the best location! The breakfast is also very good, with two Thai desserts!

The taxi from the airport to the hotel cost 200 baht (for your reference), the hotel looks very beautiful, there is a well-kept small courtyard, the windows of the room are high, maybe to protect the privacy of the tourists! The bedding is very comfortable , The front desk brother is good at English, breakfast is bread, boiled eggs, salad, and coffee. If you want a richer breakfast, you can order another one. It is about 800 meters away from the bus station and about 10 minutes on foot. The night market is right there at the bus station. Overall it's good and the price/performance ratio is high.

Great family run business with all the staff always ready to help rooms were clean and tidy and had heaps of room. This place is within close proximity to a lot of main areas but far enough away to be peaceful and quiet when you need to relax and be away from the fast paced city areas. There are lots of restaurants and coffee shops close by and one of the main large shopping centres only 400 meters away. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking to stay in Chiang Rai

Breakfast is actually some self-service snacks, there will be some small meat skewers and rice, as well as bread, biscuits, coffee and so on. It depends on whether you want to eat or not. The location is not too good. We drive by ourselves 🚗 It feels okay. There will be a parking lot, just a small yard. There are more mosquitoes. I often see geckos. There are few rooms that can really open windows. It is more suitable for self-driving. The rooms are small and fresh. There is no elevator. There are only two floors, but it’s not so easy to take with a lot of luggage

It is a good location accommodation near the city, convenient to walk, wide parking. But the condition is a bit old, but the price is reasonable. The room has a musty smell, the wooden cabinet is a bit, the TV is clear, there is bread, coffee in the morning, impressive.

This is a very local Thai hotel where nearly all their guests are Thai. Don't expect to see many foreigners here. Also, the staff barely speak English or even Chinese. That being said, the staff were exceedingly friendly and the place was really clean. The bed was one of the most comfortable I had slept in. It is hidden away and yet near enough to one of the main roads. Prices were reasonable. Highly recommended.

I booked the waterview room and was so pleased with the size and peacefulness of the room. Upon arriving I was greeted by the very friendly receptionist who guided me and my car to the room. This resort is different than a hotel in that you have separate houses throughout the property. Each house has two rooms, upper and lower. My room was an upper one with an expansive deck on a multi tiered water feature. Upon arrival you could hear the sound of frogs, crickets, and water flowing with the smell of flowers fragrant. From the outside the houses were whimsical in design, a lot of thought went into the design inside and out. The woodwork was beautiful mahogany in intricate designs. Upon entering through the double glass sliding doors the entire corner of the room was windows that provided the most beautiful sunrises over the hills and jungles. The bathroom had a two person sunken tub by the window, and an oversized shower. There was a desk, a large counter, and closet. All lights could be controlled from your bedside at night. Each morning I was there I worked and the staff brought me coffee and breakfast at no charge to my room. Upon arrival I also ordered room service for dinner and ate at the restaurant one evening. Every meal was amazing, and very affordable, not like getting room service in the states. A few areas for improvement would be that the internet was shut off each night and not turned on until 6:30am, making it hard to work as well as using a lot of data on my phone when the internet would turn off. A second area of concern was the lack of ease in connecting with the front desk unless you contacted them through Whats App or Instagram. Multiple times I went to the front desk and would not be able to find help, as well as the restaurant. I do understand that due to covid they are very short staffed and the hotel is not full to have everything fully operational. The grounds are wonderful but showing lots of age. I can imagine how beautiful if was when new and how with some work it can be brought back to it’s original glory. The staff were all very accommodating and friendly. I appreciated so much the attention to bringing food, and even coming back to wine chilled in the evening. Upon going back to Chiang Rai I would for sure recommend this place as a sanctuary to relax. If you are wanting a place to be able to walk around the city this place is not for you as it is out of town about 15 minutes. It is an easy car drive most places.

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 room is clean, spacious, comfortable, and the clothes are okay. The shelf is a lot of places to put things, the bathroom is strong, and there is a sink. The air conditioner is cool, but the sound of walking and closing the next room is a bit loud. The water flows into the water pipe, which is a bit loud. There are few parking spaces under the hotel, which is a bit difficult to park. Overall, okay, the price is very good, recommend to go to sleep alone or with friends and girlfriends, the cage is okay.

We stayed for 6 nights as a couple in the Hello Kitty room. The room was well decorated with a big comfy bed and clean towels and sheets daily. Breakfast is delivered to your room and the reception team helped us where possible with queries. It's only about a 10 minute moped drive to town, we hired ours from ”Nice Rental” in town and had a brand new bike and no problems at all.

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.

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.
