Hard bed, great hotel

Very nice hotel. Highly recommend the lift suite. Direct pool access from your power level. Like a private pool. Breakfast was amazing as was the service. We had 2 pizzas on different nights and both were great. Only complaint, bed was like wood. Very difficult to get a good night's sleep.

Ems, Singapore

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Both rooms we took on the 1st floor were clean, pleasant, beds comfortable, towels clean and fresh. We requested twin beds but they didn't have them. There was ample parking space. Loved the full size bottles of coconutty shampoo n bath gel provided that made the bathroom that bit more lux. Staff at reception was warm and welcoming, and spoke English which made communicating convenient in comparison to some other hotels. A minor point that would make the stay even better would be 2 pillows instead of 1 per person. We requested extras and got them the following night. Our Rm 6 has a window in the toilet that opens out onto another room's balcony. It made us feel a little uncomfortable to think that someone there could peer into our toilet if he wanted to. All in all, we had a very lovely stay and miss the sight of that flowing brown river.

Four days in town

If you are looking for a very modernlow profile boutique hotel on the river in town this is it. It does not have a gym, the pool is small, but if you are looking to relax and take in the beauty of the river, this is it. With the exception of the busy street outside, once you pass in to the other side, you will feel as if you have been transported 50 miles outside Chiang Mai. Parking is not great, but catching an Uber is easy to get and cheap. Breakfast is very good with many options. Staff are very friendly.

Quiet and serene right on the bank of the river.

Excellent food. Particularly fond of orange mustard tossed salad dressing. Khun Eem and Khun Jenny at the front desk / restaurant should be on the poster for The Land of a Thousand Smiles. they both made our experience at the Zensala a memorable one.

Nice relaxing spot

I would highly recommend this hotel if you are in a need to relax after a few days in Bangkok. Take a Thai written card of the hotel as most taxi drivers don't know the area. Expect to spend 200 baht to get downtown Chiangmai
