Por Que As Pessoas Adoram
- Serene 'modern Lanna' architecture that feels like a private villa
- Surprisingly high-quality gym for a hotel of this size
- Free bicycles make exploring the city center effortless
Resumo Rápido: A stylish, quiet concrete oasis that punches way above its weight class, provided you don't mind a 15-minute walk to the Clock Tower.
Revisado por @unpredicatabletravels: I stayed at Nai Ya Hotel in Chiang Rai and it was such a peaceful escape. My room was spacious with a cozy living area, and the garden balcony was perfect for my morning coffee. The pool has a swim-up bar that I absolutely loved. Highly recommend for a quiet, aesthetic trip.
