Top The Oriental Hotel Reviews

Shangri-La Chiang Mai

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel greets you with warmth and hospitality from the moment you walk through the door. Staff extremely courteous and responsive. Horizon Lounge was a quiet oasis to relax and enjoy drinks and food. Free parking was an added bonus when it’s common to pay $50 a day or more at many premium hotels."

"I would definitely stay here again. The staff were super nice, friendly, and helpful especially Game. She went out of her way to help us plan activities, such as local markets, temples, visiting the elephant sanctuary, transportation, and much more! Our room was on the second floor and we had a view of One Nimman. The kids really enjoyed the pool and had tons of fun. The green tea waffles and red velvet pancakes for breakfast was delicious! I would definitely stay here again, the experience was superb. "
