Hotels with smoking area in Chiang Rai

"this is my 3rd time staying at the legend chiang rai hotel in 12 months. each stay has been an excellent experience for me. the staff is very helpful and friendly. the grounds are beautiful and well kept up. the rooms are always very clean and comfortable. we have eaten in the restaurant on many occasions and have found each time to be warm, fresh, and very good. i will be returning to chiang rai in the near future and i will definitely be staying at the legend. i highly recommend this hotel for anyone traveling to chiang rai."

"Family room suite has spacious space, worth the price. A 7-foot King size bed is perfect for family who has to sleep with kids. No floor stepping which would be dangerous for toddlers. Check in/out service is fast. Breakfast is good for everyone. A lot of selections, changing everyday. Gyms is also good but close at 8 pm is too early for nowadays's trend. Kids' club has a big ball house which is heaven for every kids (Small toddlers to the early adolescent!) It's free, though! This hotel is probably the only hotel in Chiang Rai which has a good kids' club with ball house. Anyway, hotel should provide attending staff, at least to control kids'play which always has various age groups at the same time. Another toys are mostly broken. Should be replaced and get maintenance. Swimming pool is also awesome for kids. A pool bar is also available. (It may be even a lot better if there is a curly water slide.) In-room amenity is well equipped."

"This hotel has been one of the highlights of my travels around Asia. Set on a quiet road about 15 minutes walk from the centre of Chiang Rai, the fairly ordinary entrance road does not prepare you for what waits at reception and beyond. Once checked in the friendly staff guide you through a tropical paradise of plants and trees to one of the spacious and well equipped bungalows. Make sure to bring mosquito repellent as this is one of the prices you pay for staying in the centre of so much greenery. Reception staff are friendly and helpful although two of my few criticisms of the resort are that a) Their airport transfer is overpriced by about 200 baht (I booked through the tour place across road) and b) some of their tours are also more expensive than walking across road - plus there do not seem a lot of options for the solo traveller. But these are both small, easily remedied criticisms. The attached restaurant bar provides breakfast in the morning and drinks and meals at night; remember to get your daily 10% discount coupon and remember the 3 for 2 happy hours too. The restaurant have both friendly staff and some amazing food. Try the Kao Soi Gai - a new dish for me and now one of my all time Thai favourites! The breakfast buffet was perhaps the best I have experienced with a wide range of Thai and Western choices. Also easy to get a tuk tuk up to the night market (should be about 50 baht each way) All in all, the LaLuna is a gem in Chiang Rai and is most definitely on the 'must return' list!"

"There are few hotels in Chiang Rai that meet a Westerners expectations. Grand Vista does. Security is excellent, room is clean. Breakfast was Thai style with a special Chiang Rai speciality soup, vegetables/salad and egg station. Front desk staff was extremely kind and English was well spoken. For the rate I'd recommend this hotel as the #1 in CR. I recommend booking a back room as the front faces the highway and back-side is quiet. "

"We are very grateful to choose The Heritage Hotel during our holiday in Chiang Rai, a five star hotel. The rooms are big, new, very clean and very modern. Especially the bed, very soft and comfortable. The breakfast was plentiful and very delicious. And the hotel staff is very friendly and speaks good English so communication is not a problem for those who don't speak Thai. If there is a chance to come to Chiang Rai again, we will definitely come back to The Heritage Hotel."

"Greatest thing was Suvanna, the manager. She was extremely warm, friendly and helpful. I also really appreciated her English speaking skills. 2nd best was the pool that is long enough for laps. Poolside furniture was not very good. My room was very clean but the cleaner they use is toxic. I only let them clean my room once because the smell lingered for days. Breakfast buffet same everyday, mostly asia. Pancakes, French toast, peanut butter occasionally would have been nice. All in all, little pricey but nice place to stay."

"It's very beautiful hotel in Chiang Rai. Room is very clean and all of the staffs are very polite. The breakfast have many kind of food that you can choice. And they have shuttle bus to airport and bus terminal for free. They also provide many local tour service for customer. Highly recommend Nak Nakara hotel when you travel in Chiang Rai."

"It is Le Meridien, so of course I am picky. First of all it is quite surprising to find such a huge mega resort in a place like Chiang Rai. First day was extremely quiet, almost no clients in the hotel, it gives the experience an uttermost feeling of luxury. The following day at least 60 Spanish people in coach bus and 30 Chinese people raided the hotel... it was different =_= It is only for people who love this kind of huge luxury building, and already know Le Meridien's style. They made proper efforts to use as mush teak as possible and have the Thai feeling in the architecture. Service is really good, and "Net" was really helpful, thanks to her! If you are in Bangkok, it is only 1:20 flight to chiang rai and then a 10 minutes ride to the hotel, worth it to go away from the craziness and pollution of the capital. +++ Positive +++ + Amazing setting, the view on the river or the massive trees lighten with lanterns in between the buildings... the camp fire in the evening... we even saw a meteorite crashing few kilometers from us, it is hard to top that. + Spacious and clean rooms + Super comfy beds (zzzZZZ) + Big balcony + Excellent service (special mention to the woman called "Net" at the front desk!) + Food in general in the three restaurants is really good + For 400THB the breakfast buffet is good, but I would say 300THB would be a fairer price + 24/7 gym + Great WiFi + Hotel shuttle to airport (200THB) - the guy is from Fast & Furious though + Almost everyone in the team speaks a really correct to excellent English --- Negative --- - For this price and expectations, rooms should have a double door sas system. We really hear too much the people walking by or the room service ringing and talking to the guests next to us. So long privacy... - Shower is good, and water temperature is stable but having a plastic bathtub in this kind of hotel makes everything look super cheap all of a sudden. - TV is way too small, or the room too big I don't know, either way it i"

"What a great hotel! In a very quite area but only a few minutes walk restaurants and the town center. This hotel was nearly perfect in every aspect. The environment and the pool were so nice, and the staff were friendly and accommodating. The only thing that could be improved was some of the environmental impacts of the hotel. A sign in the bathroom directs guests to hang up the towel if it does not need to be replaced for environmental protection. Yet, just like every hotel this is ignored and the towels are replaced regardless. In addition, many single use plastic items are provided unnecessarily such as plastic straws, plastic toothbrushes, combs, ect. It's 2019, there is no excuse for the continued use of single use plastic when biodegradable or reusable alternatives are readily available in Thailand for all of these items. Aside from this, can't wait to return to this hotel. "

"We've stayed for 6 nights in Chiang Rai with 3 hotels in total and Mora is the best. They have the best breakfast options, laundry machine (and drying!), nice pool and lovely staff. Plus the airport drop off, free mini bar! Just book and stay here :)"
