This hotel is one of the best hotels i have stayed in Chiang Mai. It is a real 5 star hotel.

The facilities were very good however they had just been taken over by Sofitel and were doing a lot of constuction. The hotel will be better when everything is completed.

Styed at the RatiLanna for 3 nights. First of, this boutique hotel has been taken over by Sofitel and whether this will have a positive effect remains to be seen. The hotel decor overall is modern thai minimalist and very tastefully done up.
The room is of sufficient size with a balcony. The room is equipped with a king sized bed, lcd panel television and a cd/dvd player over and above the usual. They do not supply cds nor dvds so bring your own if you intend to spend a lot of time in your hotel room. The balcony is equiped with a day bed and a small coffee table. All electrical amenities are controlled from a panel next to the bed. The room was very clean.
The bathroom is big and equpped with a bath tub (it was filled up and sprinkled with orchid petals when I arrived) and rain shower. Next to the bath tub and separated by a wood framed glass sliding window is a water feature which you may slide open while you take a soak. There is also an LCD telivision to keep you entertained while you soak. There is the usual supply of bath, hand and foot towels and toileteries (shower gel, shampoo, conditioner, body lotion, shaving kit, oral kit, sewing kit etc). A very nice touch was the essential oil burmer which the hotel staff will light up when they turn your bed in the evening. The batroom was also very clean.
As the weather was cool when I was there, I didnt use the pool. It is an infinity pool facing the river with the usual sun deck and pool bar.
The staff was extremely friendly and helpful throughout my stay there. The impression they left me was that nothing was too much trouble. I had breakfast brought to my room every morning during my stay there and thoroughly enjoyed it! Although they have hotel limousines, they never did once tried to insist on its usage and were willing to assist by booking cabs, tuk tuks etc for my trips into town although I did use the limo once when the taxi did not arrive. They were very apologetic and gave me use of the limpo at half price!
I was uncertain if I made the right choice when I booked into RatiLanna (there was no review when I booked) but left very satisfied.

This Hotels , even if it is a little bit far from the city center (you have to take a taxi for 10 minutes to get there) will probably become a very nice and very luxuous place to stay for the superb rooms, the pool and the restaurant terrace ideally located near the river...But only when the renewal work will be actually finalized...until then : lots of noise..no facilities available (no fitness, no spa, ..), very difficult smells... Most surprinsingly all this situation was not publicized on the hotel web site. So, despite the rebate that is offered that can make it attractive for some, our recommendation will be to choose another five star place until maybe february or march 2006 to be sure to have up and running facilities and perfectly finalazed rooms...
