Service | ๐ค๐ค๐ค๐ค | So, I don’t think this should be taken personally, but when we arrived, it was full of departing guests, so the doormen were all occupied, so we weren’t not as properly greeted. But this was quickly after rectified. |
Accommodation | ๐ค๐ค๐ค๐ค๐ค | We stayed at the Huen Bon Suite which was on the second floor. Sleek and simple design, showcasing a low key elegance. The pantry was out on the balcony, which would have been a lovely idea, except for the period when we were there, it was one of the hottest periods in the region so it wasn’t pleasant to spend time on the balcony. |
Cleanliness | ๐ค๐ค๐ค๐ค๐ค | Impeccable housekeeping. |
Dining | ๐ค๐ค๐ค๐ค | We only really had breakfast at the hotel. It was made-to-order; which I really liked, as you know that the food would always be freshly made. Good variety of options of Thai / Western. |
Amenities | ๐ค๐ค๐ค๐ค | We used the gym once, it was small but good enough for a quick burn in the morning. |
Location | ๐ค๐ค๐ค | Being more northwards means a bit far from the old town where all the happenings are. But traffic in Chiang Mai is not nearly as bad as Bangkok, so Grabbing in and out was breezy. Don’t let the location put you off! |
Value for Money | ๐ค๐ค๐ค๐ค | It was on stay 3 for 2 promotion when we were there, so it was good value for money. However, this is definitely more of a boutique hotel vibes, so everything is cosier. If you enjoy a hotel with a broad range of service (e.g. kids club; big pools, etc), you may have to look elsewhere. |
Overall Experience | ๐ค๐ค๐ค๐ค | We definitely enjoyed our stay here, and love that it is a bit further out so we could enjoy some peaceful nights. We like the decor but agree that it lacks a luxury touch – it carries a more contemporary sleek, minimalist impression, which Reynolds and I appreciate (although not our favourite). All in all, I’d revisit if I come to Chiang Mai again, however, I would also give a chance to Raya Heritage’s sister property in the Old Town – Tamarind Village, just to get a sense of how it is being in the heart of Chiang Mai. |
