Guest UserThis hotel is overall fantastic, especially for families with kids. It has both an indoor play area and an outdoor water park, plus the breakfast is extensive with options specifically for children. Both the Thai restaurant inside the hotel and the Western restaurant on the top floor are excellent. It's definitely worth staying here.

Anonymous UserMy friend and I ended a 4-day road trip from Bangkok to Chiang Rai at Le Méridien and honestly, we saved the best for last. After nights in Korat and Sukhothai, pulling into this property on the banks of the Kok River felt like a proper reward.
We had a private balcony overlooking the garden. I spent a good chunk of the morning just lying on the daybed out there, feet up, watching the trees sway.
Now the breakfast,which we almost didn’t have. We hadn’t booked breakfast but the front desk offered us a deal at check-in. We said yes without thinking too hard about it. Best spontaneous decision of the entire road trip. The restaurant, Latest Recipe, serves what I’d comfortably call the best hotel breakfast I’ve had in Southeast Asia. The centrepiece is their signature Khao Soi Gai, a rich, deeply fragrant broth made with freshly pressed coconut milk and Chiang Rai spices, topped with crispy noodles and served with pickled mustard greens, shallots and lime. I’ve had Khao Soi all the way up the north in Chiang Mai, on the road and this held its own against all of them. Alongside that came a stunning northern Thai sharing platter served on a banana leaf-lined bamboo tray, sticky rice wrapped in banana leaf, bitter melon, blanched vegetables, boiled eggs, crispy pork crackling and two house-made dips including a seriously good green chilli relish. All of this with mountain and river views through floor-to-ceiling windows and a proper cup of coffee in hand. The rest of the buffet — egg station, fresh fruit, smoothies, Western and Asian options was extensive and well executed.
Staff throughout were warm and attentive without being intrusive. The property is immaculate. Free parking was easy right in the main courtyard, a genuine bonus when you’re on a road trip.
If you’re driving through northern Thailand and ending in Chiang Rai, this is where you want to finish. And when they offer you the breakfast deal at check-in, say yes immediately. Le Méridien Chiang Rai meets my expectation.

Guest UserThis is a good hostel with a great location right by the bus station. You don't even need a taxi if you have luggage, as it's just around the corner.
We had a private room without windows, but it had air conditioning and ventilation. The shared showers were clean, though it felt like we were the only guests in the hostel despite its considerable size. In the morning, they offer a modest breakfast of toast, an egg, and jam, and you can also make coffee from the machine. The receptionists were friendly, although they made us wait an hour to check in, even though the hostel was completely empty.

Pros: Close to a community area, with restaurants, convenience stores, a market, and a beer garden all within walking distance. Easy to find, located on the main road.
Cons: The bed is extremely hard, even when I lay down on it, my knees hurt. Sleeping is painful. There are very few power outlets, only two of them are two-holes (not three-holes). There are cobwebs and spiders near the sink. The headboard has blackout curtains, no blackout curtains. It's bright at 6 a.m. The air conditioner compressor is loud and vibrates, requiring earplugs to sleep. Breakfast starts at 7 a.m. I saw a bag of sticky rice and grilled pork. I asked to take it, but the staff refused, saying I had to eat at the hotel. In short, I didn't get breakfast at the hotel because I had to leave in a hurry.

Guest UserThis hotel is excellent and offers great value for a star-rated hotel. I was very satisfied with the environment, cleanliness, facilities, service, and location. It's very close to the bus station and the night market, and the breakfast is abundant. When visiting Chiang Rai, you really can't go wrong with this place. Nearby, there's a small restaurant with a pool table and two small tables pushed together; at first, I wasn't sure if it was even a restaurant. But when the food arrived, I was pleasantly surprised – it was fresh, beautifully presented, and delicious. Although I had to wait a bit, it was definitely worth it, and it was cheap too – three meals and two drinks for around 60 baht. You can also rent a car to visit the White Temple, Black Temple, Blue Temple, and the Long Neck Tribe all in one day.

🇬🇧I absolutely adored my stay at this charming family-run hotel! The receptionist was incredibly helpful and friendly, going out of their way to assist me . The hotel itself is beautifully decorated with wood & minimal style. It has a cozy, inviting atmosphere. I highly recommend this gem to budget-conscious travelers and anyone seeking a truly authentic local experience.

Guest UserThe hotel grounds are quite large, the rooms are spacious, and the breakfasts are delicious. The only downside was that the mattresses were very firm, which made sleeping difficult. Also, the air conditioners were installed directly above the beds, which was inconvenient.

Guest UserI have been there for a couple of days.
Central location, clean, a huge fridge downstairs, a small kitchen for basic things (no gas for the cooker) and some fruits and coffee were available.
The only problem was noise, as a few guest were impolite, but other than that, I have been happy with my stay.

Guest UserI arrived from Chiang Mai tired and stressed. So it was nice to find the Ben Guesthouse offered a nice respite with good amenities. I appreciated the hot water pressure and cleanliness of my room. There are also some great restaurants and cafes close by.

The swimming pool is relaxing. The gym is awesome with many equipments. I stayed in the standard room, which is old and not so enjoyable for me. The breakfast is very simple, offering dishes of local flavor. Worth noting that there’s no lid to cover the dishes; as a result, I saw a fly stop on the rice. This made me uncomfortable. Hotel free WiFi is super weak and not easy to get connected.
