The hotel is really unique and a real gem hidden just off the road. It’s beautifully decorated and the landscaping makes it feel like a real oasis. All the staff were excellent. We just came for one night and I’ve never felt so instantly refreshed- the perfect quick get away. The pool is lovely and very quiet and the room was super comfy but with all the character still from being in a traditional Thai house. On arrival they had even ran a lovely bath with rose petals and arranged a special desert and candle without me even asking for my boyfriend’s birthday. Nothing I can fault. The location is a little out of old town but still an easy drive and cheap using grab.

The property is exquisite. We particularly liked the way they blended the antique and the modern; mixing cultures: some of the sculptures were Italian in feel yet stood peacefully in a Thai-scaped garden. The pool was as much a tonic just looking at it as it was diving into it. Villa Mahabhirom is a special place. A stone's throw from Wat Umong where we went each morning for quiet walks.

At first we were rather alarmed being so close to the airport but because the property is overwhelming tranquil -- so much attention has been given to making it beautiful -- we hardly noticed the noise once we adjusted to it.

One of the most special places I have ever stayed. The photos and everything online genuinely don't do it justice. Pure idyll, and the people working here are also just amazing - so nice, friendly, helpful, welcoming and try their best to make it a special stay.

Nothing. Truly exceptional all round.

Villa Mahabhirom is definitely one of my best memories in Chiang Mai. The entire hotel reflects an outstanding sense of hospitality, and the staff truly embody the spirit of Thailand. For example, the choice of Chiang Mai-sourced chocolates and locally made shampoo highlights their thoughtful attention to detail. Every aspect of the hotel makes you feel welcomed and cared for.

We absolutely loved our stay at this beautiful hotel. From the moment we walked in the staff provided us with exceptional service. The design is unlike any other hotel in which we’ve stayed. It was peaceful and inspirational. The villas are gorgeous both inside and out. The pool is stunning surrounded by the most beautiful and lush landscaping. The restaurant was wonderful. I had a two hour Thai massage at the spa which was the icing on the cake. This was undoubtedly the best hotel in which we stayed on our two week family vacation. We highly recommend it to anyone looking for high design, friendly, warm, and attentive staff, delicious food, great location, immaculate and comfortable rooms, and a unique boutique environment.

It was perfect!

The installations are absolutely gorgeous! It feels like stepping back in time! My best way to describe it would be that I felt I was staying in a museum- with modern commodities beautifully integrated for absolute comfort! Personnel was super nice, drinks were great, everything was amazing

The property is stunning, the villas feel exceptionally private, the quality of everything is fabulous! Our private pool villa was perfect.

It’s a bit out of the way from central chiang mai (not an issue for us) and the old villas can get quite warm even with the air conditioning on.

If you're thinking about staying at Villa Mahabhirom then stop thinking and book it!! We spent four nights there as part of our honeymoon traveling around Thailand and it was pure luxury. From the moment we stepped into the hotel we felt hugely welcomed by all the lovely staff who couldn't do enough to help us and always greeted us with warm smiles. We were accommodated with an early check in at 11:30am which was fantastic as we had expected we would need to drop our bags and go and find somewhere to have lunch while we waited for the room to be ready. The lunch and dinner is excellent quality and very reasonably priced considering it is a 5* hotel!! About 300 baht for a main course. Cocktails are also not too expensive, however wine is pretty pricey (similar to London UK prices) but that will be due to the import taxes I expect. We stayed in the 1 bedroom villa with private pool and it was even more spectacular than the pictures. Gorgeous architecture and objets d'art dotted around which make you feel like you are royalty living in thailand 100 years ago. Such a beautiful, relaxing and interesting hotel. The beds are also super comfy and HUGE!! The spa is also excellent- I had a 90 minute Thai massage which really helped with my shoulder pain and left me feeling relaxed and rejuvenated. Again the spa prices are much higher than what you would pay in Chiang Mai old Town at one of the little massage shops but the quality and ambience in the hotel spa is far superior so you definitely get what you pay for - definitely worth it in my opinion!!! Do bear in mind the hotel is about a 15/20 min taxi from the old town so if you want to be right in the hustle and bustle then do consider this, but also dont forget that they have Grab in chiang mai (the Uber of Asia) and taxis are SO cheap - it will only cost you £2-£3 to get to the centre so this was absolutely fine for us and personally we prefer to be further from the centre in a nicer more relaxed hotel.

Nothing!!!!! My only feedback would be that it would be great if the bar stayed open past 9pm (maybe to 10pm or 10:30pm just for drinks would be great) but its not a huge deal as you can get around this by ordering your last couple of drinks at 9pm and then you can always take them back to your room after dinner if you want to drink later into the evening.

1.The whole environment is extremely classic which is full of art crafts. 2.Staff were warm and friendly and they helped us before we asked for. 3.Vietnamese cuisine dinner was tasty. 4.Not so many visitors and it is quiet.

1.Hot water is not sustainable which was needed to wait around 20mins to boil. 2.Each area such as living room, bath space, bedroom is separated and need to walk around. 3.Close to streets and may be a little be noisy.

Most beautiful hotel in Chiang Mai. I live in Thailand and have traveled around the country quite a bit. This is one of the most beautiful hotels. Each room is a traditional Thai teak house, with stunning gardens and common spaces, and a beautiful pool. The staff is the most attentive. The breakfast is a la carte, very good quality ingredients. The location is perfect if you drive. Quiet and secluded.
