Sadly I got acute bronchitis during a recent visit but the staff could not have been more helpful or understanding to my wife and I. The setting is magical, the attention to detail superb with very friendly staff to whom nothing is too much trouble. Good food, splendid service together with wonderful smiles made our stay as good as possible in the circumstances.

We will certainly return.

What a spectacular property. Where do it even begin? The hotel grounds are huge - almost like the imperial palace in bangkok. I would call it campus - complete with rice fields, colonial style buildings as well as thai style buildings. Stunning architecture. Spotlessly clean and impeccable Mandarin service. We first stayed at a villa a(which was huge) and then got upgraded 2 grades to a grand deluxe colonialsuite which was even nicer. Anyway, let me just post the pics and let that d the talking.

Held our wedding celebrations at the Mandarin Oriental Dhara Dhevi Chiang Mai on Valentines Day having stayed here on a number of occasions in the past.

It does not get any better than this anywhere in the world!

The property is magical, the architecture stunning, the service refined and the overall experience of staying here is truly memorable on each occasion.

I cannot say enough positive things about the Resort and its staff.

To Khun Tew and the staff who made our wedding such a magical experience (all our guests were 'blown away' by how wonderful it was) thank you very much and we hope to see you again soon.

I have stayed at many hotel all over the world. The Mandarin Oriental was definitely one I will remember. We stayed three nights which really was not enough time to take advantage of seeing everything locally and participating in the many wonderful things to do at the hotel e.g. cooking lessons, rice field planting etc. The spa is absolutely gorgeous and rated one of the best in the world...incredible. Try to spend time there and not rushing the experience. The hotel architecture is stunning and I would say the best hotel to stay in Chiang Mai. I decided not to stay at the Four Seasons as I was impressed with the architecture and grounds. The service was outstanding and after many years away from Thailand I forgot how good the service can be. The buffet breakfast was amazing with plenty of staff waiting to help you. I loved all the interesting freshly squeezed juices. My husband hurt his ankle and after mentioning it to the front desk we arrived back in our room and found a bucket of ice, tiger balm and a lady offering to help him....amazing. The hotel is expensive but well worth it for a lifetime of memories.
