Villa Mahabhirom - SHA Plus

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.

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.

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

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.

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.
