For service and ambience this is an absolutely fabulous hotel. It's not the biggest in Chiang Mai but it's one of, if not, the best. We have stayed in the city on many occasions as my wife comes from there originally, but this hotel exceeded all expectations over our stays there during our holiday. Trendy decor and staff, but also staff attentive to our needs and who delighted in providing good service from the bell and housekeeping staff to the bar staff and waiters. The orange theme is also distinctive - even if initially it reminds one of EasyJet.

Rooms are not the largest ever but they are adequate and more than comfortable. Excellent breakfasts made a good start to the day and occasional good evening buffets when the hot April weather discouraged exploration.

The pool is a little on the small side but again the service is first class. Even the spa was good value for money.

The final finish to the trip was using the hotel's London cab to ride to the airport for our flight home!!!

I'm going to try and keep this short. We investigated this for weeks before we travelled and D2 Chiang Mai was the BEST hotel I have EVER stayed in. And I've stayed in a lot for both business and pleasure. I think it was the absolutely excellent service and abundance of people willing and waiting to help you. And all at a very reasonable price. Also, the exchange rate was so low, you could tip loads of staff and it cost very little. I think we worked out that they earn about €100 a month, or €5 a day. So a tip of 2.50 for a bar maid or waiter meant half a days wages. Where else can you do this?

Anyway, it wasn't the view which was far from spectacular, it wasn't the room which still was perfectly nice, so that leaves the staff, service, breakfasts (best I've ever had in a hotel), and free evening reception on floor 7. The customer service person who give tourist advice here was excellent. The staff at meal times, due to the soft soled converse runners could appear from no where and as you turn your head one way, they'd remove you plate and when you looked back around your table would be empty and there'd be another waiter or waitress heading your way to see if you wanted anything else. And then again, they we're too intrusive. It was just a perfect experience. I can't go on about it. Chiang Mai is a great place too. Tuktuk is great fun here as there's much less traffic but try and avoid the 5 oclock rush hour (half an hour either side).

Anyway, go to D2, it's great!

We also stayed in Dream in Bangkok. Lovely little hotel. See out review on it. Also went on to http://www.norabeachresort.com/ Nora Beach Hotel in Koh Samui island. Fantastic place if you choose a Nora Ocean Pool Villa. Not sure if I'd stay in one of the bungalows as I seem to attract mozzies and they're situated in a mini manufactured jungle.

Me and my Husband stayed at the D2 hotel for 3 nights at the end of March.

The hotel itself is very funky and modern and wouldn't be out of place in a city like London. As for location it is in the centre of the Night Bazzar so ideal for evening entertainment. There are a number of bars just by the street itself (although it did appear to be a popular gay area so may not be everyones cup of tea).

The rooms in the hotel were on the smaller side but were comfy and had everything you needed. You also got a little box in the room which each day was filled with a little treat. And the staff brought us a gorgeous chocolate cake as a treat as it was hour honeymoon

We only ate in the hotel one lunchtime but the food was tasty, reasonably priced and the service good

The only few down sides of the hotel is the pool area is very small with very few sunbeds. Also while the staff were generally helpful when we enquired how to get to Doi Suthep the only option they offered was hiring their own taxi. We went outside and got a red van who drove us privately up there, waited 3hrs before bringing us back for less than 1/5th of the hotel taxi.

Overall a modern hotel in a great location

We have just returned from a 4-Day vacation in Chiang Mai, Thailand and we stayed in Hotel Dusit D2. The hotel is magnificent and we have never experienced such incredible service before. It was so lovely that it was hard to drag ourselves away from the hotel to go to the local markets.

I liked the Devrana Spa the most. The experience is simply out of this world. Expensive but fabulous.
The food is simply great. and so is the service. The staff celebrated my birthday as well. As we checked in on my birthday, they kept a birthday cake in the room.

Overall I would say this is probably the best hotel we have ever stayed in on holiday and a perfect abode for anybody visiting Chiang Mai.
