I loved my stay at the empress hotel Chiang Mai! The staff was friendly and helpful. My room was amazing with a great welcome package of water and chocolates and other goodies. So many restaurants, markets, and the night bazaar within walking distance. Would absolutely stay here again!

Overall liked the hotel, but absolutely hate the old school key system. Makes it impossible to have 1 person in the room and 1 person out and about. Why not use key cards as they have existed for 35 years now. I like that parking was free though. Will not stay here again unless they modernize the door locks and key system.

Pretty nice hotel, occasionally there’s a sewer smell. Shower temperature fluctuates sometimes to extremely hot or cold. The staff was pretty nice and helpful.

We were welcomed by receptionist called Lang. He was the most helpful and welcoming person in our 6 weeks in Thailand! We immediately felt we had a person we could ask for any concern. He would be amazing in a management position as he understands customer service!! Pool area - the umbrellas could be replaced as did not work properly and only shade in the area! Drinks at pool were reasonably priced. Pool water was a little too much on the cool side - could be a few degrees warmer. The lobby had an odd smell (musty) but the room itself was fine and very quiet with great bed. Breakfast area was crazy Tues-Sat as it serves those attending the conference center next door. Little things could really improve the breakfast (juice was warm as not served in machine or on ice, no coffee machine so coffee in pots get burned taste quite soon, most food was luke-warm not hot). Put Lang in charge and he would likely fix so many of those things ;) Definitely would consider staying again but would have breakfast elsewhere unless changes made.

We booked 5 nights but when we arrived, we realized the hotel was not located in a good area for walking around and shopping. We left after the first night. This was back in May and I STILL have not received my refund for the 4 nights despite bringing this to the hotels attention multiple times and getting no response.

Booked Empress for my stay in chiang Mai, property was closed, was accommodated at Empress Premier, and my room type upgraded Check in was efficient, then handed a welcome package consisting of evian (1.5 ltr) fruit juice, nuts, cookies and chocolate. The team were friendly, the manager at the front desk remembers guest names and greets you by name. Breakfast buffet was good, with good coffee!!! Only down side is a bit of a walk to the main town area but plenty of tuks available, on the positive makes it a good quiet location for peaceful nights. Night Market 10 mins way by foot .
