The Empress Hotel Chiang Mai
Property grounds

The Empress Hotel Chiang Mai

4.0 star property
9.2 out of 10, Wonderful, (1000)
"It's a nice property. Has that regal feel with oriental design elements everywhere. it's a larger hotel vs. a botique hotel so they have many amenities on site, and it's really well staffed. Property is kept up very well. I thought the pool area was a highlight as it has a nice view of the mountains in the background. I really liked their green pool towels. I never see that color anymore."
