This is far and away the most beautiful hotel I stayed in over 3 weeks in south east asia; it was also the least expensive, and this tells you something about the way the hotel is run.

As our taxi pulled into the courtyard in the moated old city at Rachamankha in Chiang Mai, we were greeted by red and white banners flapping.

It's definitely not an inexpensive hotel choice, but we felt it was a decent value for the money. We did get a below published rate through a website, which slips my mind right now.... more

What a gem. My husband and I just returned from a trip around SE Asia and this was one of our favorte spots. The hotel is a great retreat in the middle of Chiang Mai. Fantastic location in the old town. What surprised us most is how incredibly peaceful and quiet it was right in the middle of the city.... more
