We arrived and were upgraded to a suite for the first night.
Our normal room was great with views over the old city. I loved the hotel and Chiang Mai. Would recommend it to anyone. Only 10 minutes walk to the night market.

Amora is good value for the money, clean, and in a great location.

My stay at the Amora hotel was fantastic! The room was lovely and the facilities were great. All of the staff members were very friendly and helpful. It was my first trip to Chiang Mai and I was pleasantly surprised to discover how centrally located the hotel was in relation to the attractions that I wanted to visit. For those who are not so keen on staying in a guest house, I would recommend the Amora hotel as a worthwhile alternative.

The Mountview Room is a good value (good size and good view) .Hotel Location is not the best as most of the intersting sites like temples/museums..etc are either at the other side of the old city (the west end) or to the NorthWest of the city so you definitely need a ride to go there. The hotel is just off the eastern moat 15 minutes walking to the night bazar and the riverside.
Room Minibar is way over priced, a small bottle of water is 100 bhat! and so on. so better to avoid. Using the in-room safe box will coast you an extra 100 bhat PER DAY !!! So you get the idea they try to extract as much money from you as they possibly can and by any mean.
Breakfast buffet is VERY POOR, very limited and of bad quality. Eventhough it is included in the room rate you may choose to skip it and eat outside.

Amora Tapae Hotel Chiang Mai initially was...
Amora Tapae Hotel Chiang Mai initially was not bad, the location is central and the rooms are ok (not great), the bed is hard as a rock and really hard to sleep on. The room has a unusable key entry which requires you to keep the key in the wall to enjoy Air Conditioning - this creates a sauna like effect when you return to your room and need to cool down. The Breakfast is mediocre and not worth the extra money you pay for it (better walk 2 minutes down the road to Starbucks or other breakfast place).
The staff are rude and inexperienced and will argue with you about pretty much anything.
A promise or a gesture should not be misunderstood, anything they tell you should be double checked in advanced as they tell you that it never happened.
In specific, I had a terrible experience sending laundry. I called to the front desk several times and then to house keeping and requested Express Service as I was down to my last cloths. I had agreed with House Keeping and the front desk that I will pay 50% extra for laundry if my clothing is returned by 10:00am to my room (at the latest I would accept was noon).
At 12:30pm the next day, I walked down to the front desk and inquired about my laundry (obviously no express service) and by 01:30pm got my laundry to the room.
The hotel send some rude front desk person telling me that I will be charged the extra 50% even when I got my laundry late.
Here is the worst:
At Checkout, I was held hostage with my bill and the front desk manager held my Credit Card and would not return it to me unless I signed the bill. I had asked that they remove the 50% extra charge for Laundry and after 10 calls to house keeping they insisted on all kinds of nonsense excuses why my laundry was not delivered. They would not credit my account the 50% price difference (I was willing to pay the full amount for Laundry, just not the extra 50%).
Getting a Taxi outside the hotel is close to impossible, you are constantly approached by Tok Tok vendors and if you want a Taxi you are required to call in advance or use the inflated hotel fares.
Internet is only available at the business center for inflated amounts. Grab your laptop or walk behind the hotel (takes 20 seconds) and you have internet cafe's at normal prices (15 Baht per 15 minutes, etc).
The experience at the checkout was so horrible that I will NEVER return to this hotel. I was treated rudely and unbecoming to a guest. It was hard to believe that I was in Thailand where the Thai are legendary for their hospitality.
Nice hotel for the price. The staff...
Nice hotel for the price. The staff are friendly and very helpful, breakfast was good enough and the hotel is close to the Tapae Gate, a nice location.
The only complaint I have is that they charge for the use of the room safe, 5 nights meant we were charged for 6 days, nearly 600 baht, I have never encountered this before.
We stayed there for 3 night and...
We stayed there for 3 night and it was what we expected! Good location, it s just opposit sunday market and 10 mins walk to night Barza, 60 bath for tuk tuk to the river side. breakfast is not that great.
A good value for the money, cheap...
A good value for the money, cheap but enaugh, and with a fantastic situation close to Tapae Door, surround by all possible needes: shops, mini markets, pharmacies, restaurants.
