"There are hotels where the name really does just about say it all. Away Chiang Mai Thapae Resort - A Vegan Retreat leaves you in little doubt as to what to expect. The setting, obviously, is the northern Thai city of Chiang Mai, specifically a quiet lane within the walls of the old town, near the Tha Pae Gate. And Away is one of a growing number of hotels and resorts that are catering to travelers who want more than just a handful of vegetarian menu options — in fact, in strict Thai Buddhist style, neither meat nor alcohol are served here." - Tablet Hotels
