Dusit Princess Chiang Mai

Dusit Princess Chiang Mai

8/10 Good
"Upon checking in one of our rooms had a leak and the staff were helpful and offered us a new room. The hotel is well maintained and clean. Very convenient if you want to go to the Night Bazaar.The scent when you enter the hotel lobby is quite strong. Other than that our stay was excellent and I would recommend this hotel."

Tamarind Village

Tamarind Village

10/10 Excellent
"My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Tamarind Village for so many reasons: a beautiful lush setting, wonderful friendly staff, and delicious authentic meals. Our room was clean, quiet, and close to the hotel’s amenities, their restaurant, pool, spa, and shop. It was also located perfectly inside the OLD City making walking easily accessible to much the city has to offer. Having stayed in Bangkok for the first part of our vacation, we didn’t feel we really experienced the richness of Thailand’s culture. However, Tamarind Village provided us with many niceties, such as providing tea upon arrival, robe and slippers, a city walk, and cultural pool side offerings. We will definitely recommend this hotel to others and appreciate those who traveled there before us for their glowing recommendations."
