Entrance hall - Felt fancy. Piano and a few fish made a nice atmosphere. Location - It was near the main centre of Chiang Mai. You do need a taxi to get to the south night markets but they are cheap. Gym and Swimming pool - Very large and there is a staff member to help you with the weights...I mean to give you a towel. Room - large with good insulation. Not hot or too cold.

Breakfast - No chef to make fresh food. Mostly fruit. Bread and cereal was an option. I seemed to have only cereal as the other food didn't appeal to me and I can eat a lot of different food! Breakfast room - Large but with all doors open meaning many Mosquitos. I want to eat my chocolate cereal without having to go full Jackie Chan to kill mosquitos. Bedroom - There is a door within your room to go to the next guests room (yes it's locked). This meant you could hear the other guests very easily. I am with my wife. With little sound protection...on our honeymoon. Pool - Damaged chairs meant you could not lay on them.

I gasped when I first pushed the door and beheld a vast lobby centered with numerous Victorian furniture. This is a hotel with a grand history, and albeit slightly aged, still maintained her dignity and charm. The room was enormous, and I have never seen such a humongous bed! I told my son he could have swum laps in it. I slept like a baby. Those black out curtains really work, and the floors were clean...the throws were folded into bows on the bed. Even toiletry holders were so handsome I took pictures of them. Felt really pampered for the price. The staff were so kind, especially one particular gentleman. He's always swift to help me out when I struggle with my luggage near the stairs. Unlike a particular home stay that I tried earlier, no cab had a problem locating me here. There is a Chinese restaurant that serves dim sum buffet at a really affordable price. And *no mosquitoes nor ants, which is a plus in Chiang Mai. Kudos to the management for such painstaking maintenance of the place.

The Breakfast was supposed to be intercontinental buffet for 280 THB. But it changed to a set meal for the same price the next day. I had it once and there were fruit flies (I think) that took off when I pick up the salads. A young roach visited me on the table as well. This restaurant seems to be independent from the hotel, I'm not sure, hence, I wouldn't lump my review of them with the hotel's.

Location was pretty good with many restaurants, cafes and other shops a short walk away. Maya Shopping Plaza was a 10 minutes 1km walk which was fairly easy. Baht buses and tuk tuks readily available and we were able to get most places around town for 30 baht each which is like $1.50 AUD each. Front desk staff were great although finding someone to understand English at times very challenging. Room size was great and bed was super comfy.

Our room was on level 2 and had zero view. It was dark and cave like, but hey we were only there to sleep and in the evening so not a major issue. A room on a higher floor would have been nice though. The room, although spacious appeared tired and in need of renovation. That said it was neat and tidy, and serviced daily.

See previous review. Good location, spacious room and very good value for money. Most amenities are walking distance or a short ride by tuk tuk or baht bus.

We wanted a single large bed but got 2 separate beds. We didn't complain and just put up with it given this stay was only 8 days. As stated in last review, rooms are looking old and tired and the whole hotel appears in need of a renovation to modernize it a little.

Location is awesome. Near to the old city but away from the hustle and bustle. It is a older hotel so don't expect W or Movenpick BUT for the price, it is awesome. Usable swimming pool and good dim sum buffet dinner. Hot water, clean sheets and aircon in a huge room (old style hotel)... nothing much to ask for more for under THB1,000 per night.

I did not like the grumpy old farang in the lobby pushing all the local staff around.

Perfect location, a few minutes walk from the Maya Shopping Center and close to lots of coffee shops. The hotel looks as if it has had better days as it's a bit shabby now, but it has lots of period character. The room was very big and comfortable, and the facilities adequate. I liked the gym, which had plenty of equipment and was well maintained. The manager was very friendly and helpful. The big shopping center next door has closed down, which makes the hotel less attractive, but for me it was all I needed.

The WiFi could have been a bit more stable, but it turned out OK for my needs.

A classic Thai hotel. Clean linens are room. Few amenities. Ample breakfast included. The shower heats quickly and very good water pressure.

There is a photo showing a large modern hotel with a large pool. Why? The hotel was impressive 20 years ago, but shows it its age.

it was a good location for what I had to do in the city. The equipment in the gym is well maintained and the water in the swimming pool is now clean. The price currently is very low

This hotel was once the finest in the city but presently it is coasting on the old infrastructure. My only serious complaint is that the mattress is old and sagging.

well placed, cozy room, kind staff

a bit old, checking issue. I was told 2pm but it was 3pm a constant noise, maybe due to the A/C (not the one in the room)

nice hotel in its day

getting run down
