Newly opened hotels or highly rated hotels on booking websites have always been Wendy's and Anya's booking goals. This time, the motivation to stay at Sala Lanna Chiang Mai on the banks of the Mae Ping River was derived from the last time I visited Chiang Mai in this hotel. After spending the whole afternoon with American lunch and English afternoon tea, I was really amazed by the restaurant's special meals and the hotel's riverside scenery. This was the only time I made up my mind to stay in and see this hotel in person when I came to Chiang Mai during the Loy Krathong Festival. (→ Check special rates)
Sara Lanna Hotel location and surrounding environment
Sara Lanna Hotel opened in 2013. The location is located on the left bank of the Mae Bin River. On the opposite bank are the previously introduced Warorot Market and Longan Market. The road close to the hotel is slightly smaller and the traffic is quite heavy.After entering the hotel, it is another isolated space, but you can look at the busy market on the other side. It has a quiet atmosphere. When you walk out of the hotel, there are many distinctive and delicious restaurants along the road. It is recommended to go Come out for a walk and dig into gourmet restaurants.

The Sala Lanna Hotel in Chiang Mai is a 3-story building with a total of 16 rooms, divided into 4 room types.
– Standard King Bed Standard Room: 25㎡
– River View Superior Balcony: 41㎡
– River View Deluxe Balcony: 48㎡
– Deluxe Suite: 58㎡
This time I stayed at the River View Superior Balcony. The first principle when I chose it was to have a room facing the river bank. After all, this is the biggest attraction of staying in a riverside hotel. Then I consider two rooms with river views. The difference is only in the balcony. The size, so we choose the lower price of the superior room with river view, which is also the most cost-effective room type that we think is the most cost-effective room type, and the luxury suite with a sofa area in the living room has a large space but lacks a river view. You have to consider it when choosing.
Sara Lanna Hotel is small in scale and the layout is strip type. There are only 16 rooms. The first floor is a deluxe suite, the second floor is a river view superior and standard room, and the third floor is a river view deluxe room, because the rooms are available for reservation. The number is limited, and you want to choose the room type you want. If you are really interested, it is recommended that you book a room early. (→Check special rates)
▲ Very interesting sliding door design, with the shower area on the left and the toilet area on the right. No matter how you pull it, it can only cover half of it. ^^
▲ The small balcony area, if it is a deluxe room with a river view, is a large space for a set of sofas.
▲ The riverside pool recreation area on the first floor was rebuilt from the original two-bedroom pool villa Villa.
Public facilities and environment of Sara Lanna Hotel
The restaurant can be said to be the most excellent public space of the Sara Lanna Hotel. The standard of meals and dining environment are quite good. The swimming pool on the top floor is quite small. Although the design on the top floor has its own characteristics, it also makes it difficult for the staff to maintain. Maybe this is it. It’s a disappointing place for many people, but it’s not someone who really wants to swim. If you just want to take beautiful photos and drink wine by the pool, the pool environment on the roof overlooking the river at night is actually really not bad.
▲ The hotel provides two free drink coupons.
▲ The breakfast adopts the mode of ordering and offers a variety of set menu options.
▲ The top floor has a swimming pool, bar and sofa area, but the top floor has to withstand the test of windy and rainy weather, and maintenance is quite difficult.
▲ If you just want to take pictures, enjoy the night view and river view, watch the sky lanterns, or chat with undercover agents, the top floor is quite a good place.
▲ The lively Warorot Market and Longan Market are on the opposite side
Conclusion
Later, I took a closer look at Sara Lanna’s guest reviews, and carefully explored its failure to be listed40 Best-rated Hotels in Chiang MaiThe main reasons for the negative reviews are the remote location and the difficulty in finding the driver, the poor service attitude of the staff, the too small swimming pool on the top floor, the strange bathroom and bathtub design, the room by the road is a bit noisy, etc. The first few points may be communication, Inadequate training of new recruits or simply a matter of luck, the next few items just don’t understand the relationship of the hotel’s characteristics first.
For Wendy, the unique location of Sara Lanna Hotel on the river is the biggest feature. Just go to experience and enjoy these features. Moreover, the hotel’s dining standard is excellent, and the room equipment is quite elegant, and the beds are large and comfortable. , Probably can make up for the shortcomings of too small swimming pool, as the taxi driver can not find the location of the hotel, it is recommended to prepare the Thai hotel name and address in advance. ^^
