Luxury Hotels in Chiang Mai

For a different side of Thailand, head north to Chiang Mai. This historic city is defined by its ancient moat and the surviving gates of its old walled city, where you’ll find serene temples like Wat Phra Singh. The real magic happens just outside the center, in the lush foothills of Doi Suthep, home to the iconic mountain temple, and in the cooler, misty highlands where you can visit hill tribe villages and sip locally grown arabica coffee.

The city suits almost every traveler. Couples and solo explorers love the walkable charm of the Old City, with its guesthouses and cafes, while families often prefer the quieter, more spacious resorts along the Mae Ping River. Nimmanhaemin Road, or Nimman, is the trendy university district packed with boutiques and cocktail bars. Getting here is straightforward, with frequent flights from Bangkok and an international airport just a short drive from downtown.

With 757 hotels listed on HOTEVI, your options are wide open. Accommodation is dominated by excellent-value guesthouses and stylish boutique hotels, though you’ll also find a growing number of luxury resorts with stunning mountain views and a solid selection of social hostels for backpackers.
