Hotels Near Flying eagle zipline in Mae Rim

This was our third time at Mae Sa valley. It is such a special place. We travel extensively and I consider this to be one of the most beautiful spots in the world. It had not changed a bit in 5 years, maybe perhaps the gardens got more beautiful. The setting: The gardens here are looked after so well. There are several gardeners at work the whole time. The view is breath-taking and stunning with a fast flowing river at the bottom. The manageress, Ai, is very good at her job, speaks amazing English (which is not a given in Thailand) and is very intuitive. Last time we stayed in one of the cheaper rooms up the top which had the advantage of an amazing view over the whole valley. The rooms are a bit basic but you get what you pay for. We upgraded to what they call a suite this time and it was amazing. I cannot describe the attention to detail (murals on the walls, door handles in animal shapes etc.) I discovered something new every time I looked. Next time we will go for the suite suite! These rooms are closer to the river which is nice but the river is loud. It is quite well insulated in the bedroom so you don't hear it. The area: There is surprisingly a lot in the way of tourist attractions here (botanic gardens with canopy walks, insect farm, elephant farm) but not much in the way of restaurants. Bring snacks. Of course, this is not for everyone. If you are mobility impaired this will not work for you as too many steps. As you are in nature there are a lot of insects and it is humid and you get a damp smell from the river. Also, breakfast is very basic (but the view makes up for it!) All said, this place is special and has to be seen.

We had a pleasant and peaceful stay up in the mountains. The images of the room were accurate and the family suite was spacious enough for 4 adults. The owners were helpful and responsive, food is available all day (till 8pm) and they cook the best porridge for breakfast. Do note that even though the Google location of the homestay is correct, the route to reach there is incorrect. We were horribly misled by Google; thankfully, a friendly local eventually guided us to the place. Guests should WhatsApp the owners for guidance on how to get there.

We traveled there with a fear that the hotel may not be as nice as the other Four Seasons hotels we have visited in the past. But we got there and got amazed of how the hotel is. The hotel is built around a lake. On a side of the lake there are sone rice plantation. The rooms are all around the lake and the plantation but hidden in a beautiful forest and gardens very well maintained. The hotel has, nearby the lake, an activities area including rice planting, pink buffalo bathing, pottery learning, etc. It makes you feel like you are living in a small thai village, in the middle of the nature (ok… luxury village in a luxury nature… ). The room is a “Four Seasons” room with a plus for the outside pavilion, high up from the ground and accesuble from the room through a bridge. All for the two of us to enjoy a drink and a cigar after the dinner right in the middle of the nature (luxury forest as previously mentioned…). So, you may see similar rooms in other hotels but domains as in the Four Seasons hotels you definately won find easily elsewhere. Even the pools were built by using green ceramic, so everywhere you look it is green. So relaxing for the eyes! Overall, it is hard to find the right words to describe the feelings this hotel gives you. If you are a traveler, you should not miss the Four Seasons Chiang Mai.

I was especially excited about staying at Jirung for a recent workshop I was participating in. The initial correspondences were very helpful and the staff seemed very capable of accommodating everything the group needed, including accomodations, dietary restrictions, and some of the delicate components of hosting a large group. While my room was actually very comfortable and a pleasure to stay in, the astronomical cost of the room per night was a huge turnoff, (more than all the 5 star hotels in Chiang Mai for the dates of my stay.) Chiang Mai is so affordable, and paying almost $120 per night at a ”discounted group rate” is just offensive for me given the complete non-existence of any form of concierge or star quality to the hospitality. I stayed in similar accomodations in Chiang mai for around 1/12th of the cost, don't get scammed by these prices. The restaurant on the property is a joke, absolutely ridiculous, as if all the employees were pulled off of the street and asked to work in an industry they don't understand and are downright terrible at, I have never experienced such disrepair in management and capacity from a restaurant before. They would consistently take 5 trips to bring the right bill with the right balances, constantly added things to the bill that weren't ordered, would include meat in vegetarian items, and when we pointed out that some individuals couldn't eat meat they would remove the chunks of meat from the dish and just bring it right back, pricing was different then what was listed on the menu and then they would refuse to honor the listed prices because these were ”old menus”, no concern for the health and wellness of their clients at a wellness center, absolutely laughable service, aweful awful awful! We stopped eating here after a few nights and elected to go to the 4 seasons next door to actually receive a meal from people who know what they are doing, and the pricing for the restaurant was higher than the #1 ranked restaurant on TripAdvisor, yet the only bad meals I had in thailand were while staying at Jirung. Numerous people, myself included, had numerous ant infestations in the ”villas”, and the workshop space smelled like cat urine because they have numerous cats on the grounds that wander freely. Supposedly the space was cleaned each day however a deep clean would be helpful to avoid the pungent aroma of cat urine, and this was workshop space on the first floor of the Thippamon Ashram, it just felt like the people working here had no respect for the customers or the job they were doing, and certainly weren't using the money we were spending to honor the space and care for the temple space. I would not recommend staying here, Everywhere else I have stayed in thailand was a better experience!

If you can't stand the congestion and air pollution in the city, go to the countryside in northern Thailand to rest. It is about a 30-minute drive from the old town of Chiang Mai. It is recommended for those who have transportation. If there is no transportation, it is recommended for those who want to participate in tiger and elephant tours. It’s really comfortable to stay in the swimming pool after having a daily schedule around. It’s perfect for families who just want to relax and have children. Check in directly and don’t go anywhere. The children have a great time in the swimming pool. The host can help prepare food. . There are village stalls within a five-minute walk. The park is designed with careful planting and the animals are well taken care of.

The room was very clean, the bed was soft, the blankets were soft, the front desk was clean and very beautiful. There are plenty of places to sit. Good service staff Very fast. I like it very much. If I reserve in time, I will come to stay again.

We reserved two rooms. Room for one night and two nights Room for two nights, clean, fragrant, very spacious. The bathroom is very spacious. Worth the price but the only disadvantage is when there are many people staying. The water flows so gently that I thought I wouldn't be able to wash my hair completely. And the room for one night had good water pressure. But when entering, there was a bit of a musty smell. The surrounding area is beautiful. But I would like to have more lights in the back of the room that would be great. You will be able to sit and admire the river view. The service is very good.

The hotel is located quite deep from the main road. If you don't have your own car, it will be very inconvenient. There is no convenience store in the neighborhood at all. The hotel tried to arrange it as a Japanese style, but it is not really Japanese. The similar part is the Japanese-style toilet in the room. Including in the common toilet (although the cleanliness needs to be improved a little), the onsen room is still not the real hot spring water, just warm. only,the breakfast is very small and the taste is very average.there are few staff.informing about the bedside lights failure.so no one came to fix it.

Stayed in the room, Kochi Studio According to the picture, clean, round table to sit and work There is popcorn, breakfast has toast :) Limited parking under the building at a height of 2 meters, but in front, you can park.
