This was my first trip to Thailand and the Kiree Thara Boutique Resort was the perfect place to land. It is situated in peaceful surroundings, the gardens are calming and beautiful, the rooms are comfortable and well equipped, the staff were generous and hospitable. It’s a short ride from the city (easily accessible via the Grab app) and far away enough to experience the tranquility of the hills in Chiang Mai. Great food and service. I highly recommend staying here.

Staff was kind but facilities were poor
At first we wanted to cancel the room because it was too far from the city center but the staff said it was not refundable and offered to upgrade our room so we decided to stay. When we came back to the room at night, we discovered ants in and around our baggage. The front desk then moved us to a new room. There was a huge cockroach in the bathroom! Each time we tried to talk to the front desk and the manager was never available. They refused to give us a refund. We ended up leaving the next day. The only good part of this stay was the free breakfast and how the staff was so kind. I hope they get their bug issue under control.

The hotel is beautiful & serene but the rooms are old & a lot of stuffs in the rooms are not working properly. The shuttle service was great as they used very new & 7 seaters car. Service was great & the staffs there are all very helpful. One minus point is the place are not so wheelchair friendly.

This is an outstanding place to stay in Chiang Mai for anyone who prefers quiet natural surroundings and a beautiful facility over being in the busy downtown. The Executive room was tasteful and luxurious with a large bath and separate shower. Hotel staff were lovely, the restaurant food was good, and the service reflected the respectfulness and kindness common in Thai culture.

Fabulous respite
The setting at Kiree Thara is fabulous - from the restaurant to the pool! A 10-minute Uber or taxi gets you to shopping and restaurants. The staff are friendly, attentive and professional. The only reason I rated it a 4 out of 5 is because the walls are thin. Loud noises in other rooms or next door kept me awake at times, but other than that, my stay was amazing. If you want to be off the beaten path, away from the city, at the foot of the hill near the jungle, this is your place.

Awful
There was absolutely nothing to do in this are. The hotel is very secluded and you can't even walk to a restaurant. You are forced to take a minimum 300b taxi into the city. We asked for a taxi one morning and had to wait 1hr for it to arrive and then were told we had to pay 400b because the hotel staff had called an airport taxi (even though we were not going to the airport) overall this hotel was the worst I had ever stayed at. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone who wants to have an enjoyable vacation. I'm extremely disappointed.

We stayed here for one night, we were very pleased with the property and the rooms. However, we weren't notified of their policy regarding ordering food. I ordered coffee and fruits for breakfast, reception charged to my hotel bill. During check out, I was charged more for my meal. I wasn't told that I had to spend a certain amount of money in order to avoid the additional fee. Manager explained it was policy, I stated that I wasn't told that, and that should have been explained to me. However, manager wouldn't budge.

Loved this place.
Booked online at an amazing price. Stayed for four days and enjoyed this place immensely. Rooms were clean, beds were comfortable, staff was friendly, and the pool was nice. It's not on the river, but about 3.5 km from the old city and at the end of a road, really quiet location compared to others. Have to say the gentleman who greets you is incredible! Came back late one night and he was still there (never goes home?!) We had a flight in the early afternoon and we discussed departure times, he helped us decide when to leave. In the morning, I'm headed to get breakfast and he's already ordered the taxi! This guy was super helpful and incredible! Would recommend this to others.

Resort for local folk
Location is pretty far out from the airport and the old city. The resort and facilities are pretty. However, much of the facility is not inspected before folk check in. The air conditioner was broken in the Executive suite. The staff was helpful about trying to fix it and upgraded us to the penthouse. The wooden floors are dangerously slippery. We were traveling with my in-laws who are 83 years old. We could not risk staying here and moved to Holiday Inn. The fitness equipment is old and was mostly broken. The elliptical machine was not working and the treadmill kept speeding up dangerously fast.

Nice secluded hotel, needs some plumbing upgrades
This hotel is away from the crowds, but only 10 minutes to the action near the Maya mall, and about 20 minutes from the old city. The hotel is showing it's age, but still a nice getaway. The family suites were large, clean and spacious. The pool was refreshing and central. The food and drinks we ordered were quite disappointing, I'd recommend eating elsewhere. Our biggest complaint is our first room toilets and one of the AC did not work. We did get a nice free upgrade, which was a nice gesture, however the master bathroom smelled terrible, likely from the sewage system. This did not sit well with us and unfortunately tainted the entire hotel. We did see others complaints online about this, and we can confirm, it's true. They did have one lady at front desk with amazing English and she was very helpful and apologetic, with a great understanding of customer service

Magnificence
We stayed at this hotel for 3 nights of our honeymoon in Thailand. The hotel manager is doing an amazing job with service and care of their guests. From the moment we arrived they had a beverage for us and warm refreshing towels so we could freshen up. They were very attentive to us; checked in on our plans and helped us arrange transportation to and from. The manager was also great at suggesting local cooking schools, or more adventurous elephant camps. The places suggested where also very nice places and provided similar hospitality. I would definitely recommend this place.

Reception staff were friendly and very helpful, greeted with a welcome drink upon arrival. Rooms were good, bed and pillows were a bit stiff though. Tv had english channels and movies. In room safe. Grounds were well maintained and looked awesome but pool was freezing. Had a gym and free bikes available to take for a ride. Full time security outside the property.

Lovely quiet small hotel
The hotel is small and while we were there, there were very few other people staying there. The hotel is next to a military base (comprised of an open field primarily) and a rural area, making it tranquil. The staff were kind and the room was a good size. The restaruant in the hotel is decent but for some the food might be a bit too spicy.

awesome resort with a very friendly staff. It is starting to show its age a bit however the grounds were very well tended to. The rooms were comfortable with lots of room. The breakfast was excellent and the pool quite nice for a refreshing dip. As long as you have ground transport I would highly recommend this to anyone wishing for a peaceful stay.

Kiree Thara a Gem in Chiang Mai
We had a wonderful stay at the Kiree Thara Hotel. The manager and his staff went out of their way to make us comfortable and help us out in any way they could. We would definitely stay here again. The restaurant was also very accommodating with our request for vegan meals. We were delighted to discover they serve organic food too. This is a wonderful oasis in Chiang Mai!

Over rated for a four stars boutique hotel
Staff was helpful and friendly but unfortunately the room smells really bad . Its not just one room as I over heard another guest making the same compliant at the reception desk and demand a refund . The room is really dark and lights need to be turned on at all time. Also there's no window in the room for you to open .

Secluded yet convenient
First of all this is not for those first-time CM tourists who want to cram as many sightseeing acts as possible into 2-3 days, or those who do not have wheels. Located a few kilometers northwest of CM city square, this place is a gem in a sea of tourist resorts. Very zen and tastefully designed, with teak wood flooring and nice amenities, this place sits at a cul-de-sac of a main road adjacent to the convention centre. There is a deck overlooking a pond which is perfect spot for a drink and chat. There is nothing pretentious or garish about this place. Be careful of Google map though because it has the location way off.

Quiet location with up close mountain views
Stayed here for June for 3 nights with a huge family of eleven pax. As compared to many other mountain resorts which are at least 45 mins drive away, this hotel provides a good balance of mountainous views and distance to city. It is not nestled on the hills unlike other expensive resorts but being able to take in the mountain range view of Doi Suthep is really good enough, or I Should say wonderful enough for any city dweller. Within 10-15min driving distance from the city, it's convenient. We hired a driver called Mr.Sun who works together with the hotel for transport hire. He is a licensed guide and can drive u around for the whole day for a negotiated sum. The hotel staff were very polite and friendly, and operated like a small cosy family. As the hotel only has 24 rooms, they will know guests we'll. I was also pleasantly surprised that all items in the mini bar are free. The honeymoon suite that we booked was great. Nice ceiling-to-floor glass windows that allows you to wake up to nice mountain views. The open air roof top was a nice place to just sit around and chat at night. A great place to chill. The only thing is that the swimming pool is generally unused so I didn't find it as clean as I expected it to be.

not worth the trouble
the first room we were given -- the room was extremely hot since the air conditioner cannot run unless the room key is plugged into the wall. then the bathroom stank of urine. i called the lobby and they asked me -- ' what is wrong now?' like i was pestering them. when i told them, they immediately switched us to the room next door. i believe the urine room is room 401. the whole urine smell really set a bad tone for our stay. overall, i am sure -- at this price, or even paying a bit more, you can do a whole lot better. also, to offset the price, there is an added inconvenience of the taxi drivers charging extra to drive you there. they also have to look at a map to find it.

Brilliant hotel in a hard-to-find location
I can provide little to complain about the actual hotel, other than the location and the difficulty every tuk tuk, taxi and red truck driver had to find it. For some reason Google maps placed it on the other side of town (near the river), and the free maps we got weren’t much better at providing any idea of the location. This resulted in many frustrating late-night driver negotiating, and it was even more difficult given it was close to New Year (we stayed from 28 Dec- 1 Jan). It wasn’t until the very last night that we asked the reception staff to write in Thai and English the location of the hotel and directions from the city, which helped enormously on New Year’s Eve. Other than that, can’t fault the place, it was beautiful, staff friendly and helpful, food delicious. Would stay again but will be making sure to get a detailed map and Thai directions for drivers!!!

Superior may not be what you're thinking!
Please understand that the "Superior" room is a dark, dank, subterrianian hovel. There is a large window that if you should choose to open the blind makes the room feel like a reptile aquarium. In my lexicon that does not imply superior. It is far from town so expect the drivers to complain about taking you anywhere. The restaurant is neither a relaxing nor enjoyable place to take a meal. Chiang Mai is a very enjoyable stop on any trek through Thailand. Plan to stay near the old city so that you can enjoy the Saturday or Sunday night markets. We decided to check out after two nights because I could not bear the thought of celebrating Christmas in our "superior" accomodations. The hotel desk manager was sorry and understanding and very graciously called a cab to take us to another hotel. He also comped two drinks that we charged to the room but did not offer to refund our remaining two nights of accommodations. The breakfast is fine and the staff is okay but overall the Kiree Thara is not a welcoming nor enjoyable place to stay while in Chiang Mai.

Charming, out of the way, hotel
This is a charming little hotel. The gardens were lovely and the breakfast was good. The room was large and very comfortable. The downside is the location. We rented a motorbike -- but that is not for the faint of heart. Driving in Chiangmai is scary.
