Central Chiang Mai Location
Located in Chang Khlan district on the Mae Ping River banks, the hotel is 2 km from Saturday Night Market and 3 km from Wat Phra Singh. A free shuttle service operates daily to Night Bazaar and on weekends to Walking Street. CNX International Airport transfers cost 300 THB for two guests.

The 24-hour front desk provides concierge services. The aromatic gift shop sells Karmakamet scented candles, oils, and herbal products.
“What stands out here is the peaceful riverside setting, even if the pool itself is surprisingly sunless. Rooms, while spacious, could use refreshing, but the lush gardens offer a real escape, and the restaurant pleasantly surprised with its well-timed dishes. I think that the hotel's strength lies in its potential for riverside relaxation, though some aspects need updating to truly shine.”
