A fabulous resort, so relaxed, and the position in the middle of the river is just so COOOOOOOL.
Very quiet hotel, not for the young one's really, for the more mature and at the better end of the market.
Great breakfast, and the steakhouse on the 10th floor is well worth the price, although as for all of Thailand, expect to pay at the upper end for your wine.
Five minutes to town on the rickshaw, or a twenty minute walk.
The boat trip (B800)up the river to the hilltribe villages is a MUST.
Chaing Rai in itself is a cute, laid back and VERY friendly place, good selection of restaurants & cuisines. Don't expect a hot spot like Pattaya or Patpong, this place is about relaxation, nature & culture.
The people are just lovely, they make you feel like you're on another planet.
Highly recommended, not only will we go back, but we're now thinking "What a place to retire to!
