Upon entering this beautiful hotel, you are greeted by all staff. They took care of the bags and met me at the room. They supplied me with two full bags of welcome snacks and drinks. That is not a typo, 2 FULL bags of snacks. It was amazing. Such a great surprise. This was the best hotel I've stayed at in Chiang Mai, and I've been to this city many times. The rooms are beautiful and very clean. You must check out the pool during your stay. The hotel is walking distance to the night bazaar, 7/11, and many other convenient things to check out. I loved this place and everyone made my vacation much more enjoyable. I'll be back. Awesome job Empress Premier!

The breakfast lacked American variety, the bacon was raw and unappealing. The massage was average. There are two Empress hotels directly next to each other. At least half of the taxis and tours we went on went to the wrong one. There were very few restaurants near the hotels. The mixed drinks at the main bar were not very good and the selection of alcohol was very limited. The martinis were in the smallest martini glass I've ever seen. They give you a huge bag of goodies when you arrive.

The hotel was undergoing maintenance while I stayed there so it did not look its best. The staff were ok, they seemed exhausted or maybe tired of foreigners. I could not tell. Room service was perfect, laundry service was good too. Bathroom shower could be cleaner, toilet paper holder had a brown spec, 💩.

The overall experience was very good, but a few things related to the age of the hotel were a bit annoying, like the power points that were not on the same standard (some would accept my power connectors and others wouldn't). The breakfast and the gym were absolutely amazing! The area around is very good with many options for shopping, and there are some markets around with good options for shopping and eating.

Location: 10 minute taxi ride from airport. No disturbance from flights at hotel. Hotel taxi from/to airport very efficient - 300 baht each way (per journey, not per person). No great views from hotel but think most hotels in Chiang Mai will be similar. Hotel well located. Getting around: Grab (Uber equivalent) excellent and dirt cheap. Hotel: Staff at very helpful, efficient and friendly. Food in Brasserie very good at breakfast - usual selection of food with Thai specialities too. Food and cocktails in Elephant Club very good and very reasonably priced. Pool area lovely. Very quiet. No problem getting loungers. Poolside food and drinks very good. No smoking allowed which was great! Bedroom very spacious, spotlessly clean. Beds very firm but that wasn't a problem - slept like a baby! Loved the idea of the wardrobe having doors on both sides so it could be accessed from the bathroom as well as the bedroom - genius!! Was given a massive bag of food and drink on arrival which was much appreciated and very handy when we needed an early breakfast on the day we had a full day excursion planned and had to leave hotel at the crack of dawn. Fridge in room well stocked. Room serviced daily. Spa was lovely - had a coconut salt scrub which lasted an hour and only cost 1800 baht. Very quiet hotel, no noise disturbance at night.
