First of all, this is indeed a building with a beautiful appearance and well-preserved colonial style, but it really needs to be disenchanted!
The location is very remote, 1 hour's drive from the city. There are no facilities nearby, but the hotel's catering is very poor. Among the 5 hotels I have stayed in in Chiang Mai, this one is the worst. The breakfast is hard to describe, the pastry is all limp, the juice has a rancid smell that has been stored for a long time, and the chicken porridge that is praised online is really salty. The only Western restaurant in the hotel is still beautifully decorated, but the food is really terrible! The meal costs 350+ RMB, the quality is worse than airplane food, and the pasta is worse than fast food. Fortunately, I ordered a takeaway kebab from a place near my house. It was cheap and delicious, so I could barely make it through dinner.
I booked a basic room type. The interior is a bit basic but acceptable. But the hygienic condition is average, and I don’t want to dwell on the yellow stuff on the back of the pillow. The shower worked fine, but water leaked to the door. The sound insulation is also very poor. You can hear every movement in the old house very clearly. No wonder you have to sign an agreement when you move in. It says that if you don't pay attention to the loud noise three times, you will be evicted. Haha.
The service could only be described as superficially polite, but it was also full of embarrassment. When we checked out, the staff asked us stiffly where we were going next and which hotel we were staying in. I asked him what for and he couldn't come back. After the process was completed, he said he was worried that we would lose something...
In short, this hotel is only suitable for checking in and taking photos, and the limit is one night. If you don’t have time in your schedule, don’t come! It’s very likely that I can’t eat well, sleep well, and have nowhere to play…
The hotel is a small house. Separated, the parking lot is far away. Have to walk quite far The atmosphere is quiet, the room is very spacious, clean, there are 3 zones, living room, bedroom and bathroom, unfortunately there is no refrigerator. The bathroom has no door, only a clear glass curtain, one side can look outside ... Outside can see us as well. The bathtub is not They lifted up. Take a shower where the water splashes all wet. **************** When someone walks through the room The floor will shake quite strong. Breakfast is served to the room. Overall, it's good. I like it.

I have to say that the room is big enough and really super clean. There is no dust in every place of the hotel. The glass is very clean. There are not many people staying. The room is sunny every morning. The hotel is not big. There is no swimming pool. There is no space for activities. Can be used for sleeping, there are no shops nearby, Buying things must ride a motorcycle for at least 5 minutes to 711, but, if you are afraid of noisy, and the quality of sleep is not recommended, the room is 5:30 in the morning outside the window of the rooster 🐓 on time 🐓, and the sound is huge, even one morning starts to call at 3:30, but, The child is very convenient to pick up and drop off at Monterey's winter camp. Anyway, it doesn't matter if you send the child to get up early. It is suitable for friends who go to bed early and get up early. It is expected to take a taxi to the city for 30 minutes. It is also convenient. There are lotus flowers nearby and big c, but you need to take a taxi. The place to rent a motorcycle is relatively close. There should be a small shop opposite the Lotus Supermarket, and the price is reasonable.
The hotel features are there, but not much care, we live in a two-storey wooden house, the red frame is a bit short, I 1.76 meters, hit a lot of heads, the location is far from the ancient city center, taxi fare more than 400 , A bit biased, there is nothing to match. There are also many mosquito bugs, so it is not recommended. If you have a good repair, you can recommend it.

One of my best experiences in Chiang Mai. I have been traveling here for years, it was the first time I stayed in Hangdong district. Foresta villa had everything I need: amazing delicious breakfast (simply wow! both me and my toddler loved it. there were different choices, I always had the same and did not get tired of it after a week, a small surprise every day with local snacks), quiet and comfortable sleep (some might consider bed a bit hard), very clean, the room is spacious.
The people at the hotel are very helpful, friendly and kind. Made me feel like at home. There is a washing and drying machines (!) for use. Guests can use their kitchen. There are also only few rooms, so it's always quiet. We loved their pets.
I had a car to drive around, it's more convenient in any part of Hangdong as everything is a bit far here in comparison with the city regardless in which part of the district you are. Still can get a cab using Grab if you don't like driving.
It is definitely a place to come back.
Food taste and quality are also good!
The room is not bad!
 But cleanliness  needs to be improved 🙂
The driver who picked up the plane was very polite. Friendly. Careful!
Still know Mandarin!

SS.KachaAccommodation suitable for relaxation, quiet, good location, on the main road, various rooms, fairly new condition, delicious food. The resort is natural, there may be ants and insects, so close the doors and windows well.
WWenliliDidn't expect it to be so good. It's like staying at home, clean, no annoying sewer smell. There are cute pets to see, including rabbits, goats, ducks, geese, and chickens. The place is beautiful, really suitable for relaxation. Breakfast is good, not too much or too little. The dining room is warm, I like it very much. It's not stuffy, there's no food smell on you. The only downside is that the road to the accommodation is about 6 kilometers. There are no street lights at night. When it rains at night, you have to drive carefully.
MMarcWe absolutely loved our stay at Veranda High Resort Chiang Mai. The hotel is about a 30-min drive from Chiang Mai, nestled into a beautiful countryside with rolling hills. We booked the valley deluxe scenery room on the ground floor, which has a calming view of trees and mountains. Rooms are spacious and comfortable with everything you need; the bed is huge. The infinity pool overlooks a mountain with a white temple (worth a visit!). Food (Western and Thai) is delicious and reasonably priced. But what stood out above everything was how friendly the staff is here. We felt really welcome and well looked after. We'll definitely be back!
PPi Ka ChuWe have booked for 2 nights package- double room with Balcony. Hotel offered one way air port pickup service and driver arrived one time and picked us up from international airport, we were very happy with the service. Hotel also offered fruits and minibar on the first day we checked in, with fresh fruits and snacks, my kid love it. In addition, we also had tea set - 2 dishes of hot snacks and two smoothies, which was great for us who just come here to resort and have some quiet family time. We also booked for massage for two people, 1 time massage was included in the package and we paid for 2nd person. we choose ‘Thai massage’ to get a little strength massage, if you are beginner or 1st time trying massage in Thailand I recommend you to choose ‘Oil Massage’ for more gentle touch. Rooms was quite big/comfortable and swimming pool was good enough for kid to play their afternoon. Breakfast was good as well, especially their stir fried Cabbage, complimentary coffee at breakfast is really just okay, but you can get a handmade coffee from the bar at extra cost. Overall, except for a little older building/facility (typical Lana style), it was a good stay.
TTeeny JiThe original teak structure building in northern Thailand, next to Suthep Mountain in Chiang Mai. The environment is very good, the hotel restaurant is delicious. The kids love it. Very suitable for family trips. The spokesperson of the hotel's image - Lincoln, is a very gentleman.
GGuest UserInteresting resort. The gate is too simple and frugal that we were a bit disappointed when we saw it in the taxi. But when you go through the glass restaurant, you’ll find a new jungle garden world. Good gardening and swimming pool. However the room facilities are a little old, especially the bathroom which should be renovated. Btw there are many funny exploration restaurants, farms and places near the resort.
林林瑞森Rooms with balconies have better views than rooms without balconies. There is a short climb from the parking area to the check-in area, and another short walk from the check-in area to the room. This time, the hotel staff were responsible for carrying the luggage. Without help, it would have been a very difficult journey.
The room is very special, but the equipment is old. It can be experienced for one night
GGuest UserAdvantages: The hotel is attached to a golf course, with a good view and a comfortable environment. The rooms and bathrooms are large. Bell, the waiter in the restaurant, is attentive and has a great attitude. The hotel provides free Shuttle buses to the city, Wood Carving Street and Hangzhou during several periods. East Temple.
Disadvantages: When I first checked into the room, the noise from maintenance work next door was so loud that I couldn't rest. After reacting, I moved 3.4 rooms away and the sound was a little quieter. The smell of formaldehyde in the room was a bit strong. I left the air conditioner on for a long time and didn't pay much attention. I don't know. Are you paralyzed? The sink in the bathroom looks modern but is extremely difficult to use. The water will splash all over the countertop and get wet. I want to go swimming the next night and I have to put on my bathrobe only to find a big hole in it. It’s ridiculous. Unable to use; the lady in the lobby answered the travel questions very perfunctorily and did not feel sincere; I originally planned to stay in Hangdong for 2 nights, focusing on Ban Taiwan Wood Carving Street and cycling around this town. Unfortunately, it backfired. There is no motorcycle rental anywhere, and the hotel's shuttle bus has limited time slots, so you can't fully enjoy your time due to limited time.
KKrivI really enjoyed my stay here
The hotel was beautiful and peaceful
There are many aesthetic spots to take pictures
The hotel staff were friendly and helpful
Breakfast was enjoyable and there were many different options to choose from, in addition the restaurant had pizzas and other items in an al a carte menu available from 11am till 9pm (can also be ordered as room service)
There was a beautiful pool open until 10pm
The hotel room was comfortable, the air conditioner worked well
Overall the hotel is definitely worth it, it’s very convenient as it has a lot of amenities
The only downside about it is that it’s a little far centre (about 30 minutes) however is easy to get around using the bolt or grab app
GGuest UserThe hotel probably knew better days before COVID, and it is in need of some polishing. At the same time, I had a very pleasant stay: they provide free bicycles, the room is clean, rustic, and atmospheric. There is a road curving around the hotel but at least from where my house was located, I could not really hear any traffic.
The village is very local, with great little eateries that serve delicious cheap meals.
The Viewpoint in the 6fh floor of the main building indeed has a great view!
Lady at the reception can speak a little English, and she helped me to arrange a taxi to the airport.
