Le Méridien Chiang Rai Resort, Thailand

Lovely friendly hotel. Excellent service and very gracious and helpful staff. Fine breakfast buffet. Fantastic pool and riverside restaurant and beautiful landscaped grounds alongside the river..... especially love the ancient rain trees in the central lawn and by the pool. The owners love nature. BUT.. parts of the hotel looking a bit tired. Architecturally feels dated. Rooms were spacious and comfortable. We had a large balcony overlooking the pool. But rooms / showers have not been modernized for years and need better lighting and upgraded furniture. Overall a very pleasant stay 15 minutes by taxi from central Chiang Rai and very easy to arrange tours through the concierge.

Le Méridien Chiang Rai Resort, Thailand Our stay at Le Méridien Chiang Rai was truly exceptional. The hotel is absolutely stunning. The open spaces, wide green lawns, and beautifully maintained gardens create a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere throughout the property. It feels like a high-quality resort where you can truly slow down and breathe. The rooms are very spacious, comfortable, and elegantly designed, offering a wonderful sense of calm and comfort. The service is outstanding — professional, attentive, and genuinely warm. Breakfast was excellent, with a rich and high-quality selection. We dined at both on-site restaurants — the Thai restaurant and the Italian restaurant — and both were fantastic. The food was delicious, and the overall dining experience was superb. I also had a massage at the spa, which was absolutely wonderful and added greatly to the overall experience. I would happily return to Chiang Rai just to stay at this hotel again. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a perfect combination of nature, tranquility, and top-level comfort.

Our stay at Le Méridien Chiang Rai was exceptional. The hotel is beautifully integrated into the landscape, with expansive green areas, a calm river setting and a sense of space that immediately slows you down. The rooms are very comfortable, well maintained and quiet, with excellent beds and thoughtful details. Common areas are spacious and inviting, especially the pool area and riverside paths, which are perfect for long, unhurried walks. Breakfast is a highlight: varied, well executed and enjoyed in a serene setting, with both Western and Thai options prepared with care. Dining overall was consistently good, with balanced flavors and quality ingredients. Service deserves special mention — professional, warm and attentive without being intrusive. Everything runs smoothly, from check-in to daily interactions. This is a hotel that works equally well for relaxation and longer stays, offering comfort, landscape and calm in a refined but unpretentious way. An excellent base for experiencing Chiang Rai at a slower, more thoughtful pace.

This is a great resort. The location is a little out of town, you can walk it l, but grab is easy to get. The site is very well maintained and the pool area and views of the river are lovely. The rooms are large and comfortable. All the staff we met were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good and had a good range of food.

We stayed in November for 3 nights. The location by the river is beautiful and the outdoor area with the pool and large lawn is really lovely and relaxing and all is well maintained. However, the rooms felt extremely dated and in need of refurbishment, this is by no means a 5-Star hotel. The baby cot that we had requested was extremely old, too. No kids facilities, the kids club closed during Covid and was never reopened. We also found the restaurant very overpriced for what it offered. Breakfast was good but overall, I wouldn't stay here again.

The room was very spacious and we absolutely loved the large balcony. The atmosphere is perfect, especially in the morning — peaceful and relaxing. The staff were nice and very helpful throughout our stay. Would definitely come back!

Absolutely loved my stay at Le Méridien Chiang Rai Resort. The property is stunning — spacious grounds, beautiful river views and a peaceful atmosphere that makes it perfect for a relaxing getaway. The rooms were modern, clean and very comfortable, with thoughtful touches throughout. Service was outstanding from start to finish. The staff were warm, attentive and always ready to help, making us feel truly welcomed. Breakfast had an excellent spread with great quality food, and the facilities — from the pool to the riverside areas — were well maintained and enjoyable. A wonderful blend of nature, comfort and top-notch hospitality. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Chiang Rai!
