Anantara Chiang Mai Resort & Spa
Chiang Mai, Thailand
5 stars
Anantara Chiang Mai Resort & Spa sits quietly on the Mae Ping River, bringing a refined sense of calm to one of Thailand’s most characterful northern cities. Set on the historic grounds of the former British Consulate, it pairs clean-lined design with Lanna details, garden courtyards, and wide river-facing spaces, so the whole place feels more like a riverside retreat than a city stay. Rooms and suites come with garden or river views, while the serviced suites across the road offer extra room for longer stays or family trips. There’s plenty to draw you in without pulling you away from the stillness, with a 34-metre riverside pool, Anantara Spa, Thai cooking classes, Muay Thai, yoga, and cruises from the resort’s private pier. Food and drink has a strong sense of place too, from regional Thai dishes at Bodhi Terrace to steak, cocktails, and afternoon tea at the 100-year-old 1921 House. For a city stay, it feels beautifully unrushed.

What a beautiful hotel Anantara is…the architecture & the surrounding are phenomenal. Folks here are so friendly - a big shout out to Jessie! She is fluent in English and Korean and is extremely reliable. She’s very knowledgeable in good local foods & touristy spots. highly recommend for HONEYMOON
“Stunning experience”
Jun 09, 2026Laurie C
Serenity and refinement without pretentiousness. The hotel and grounds are simply beautiful, the rooms are spacious (we had a complimentary suite upgrade) and the attention to detail is outstanding. But what stood out above all else with the sincere friendliness and helpfulness of the staff. This was a beautiful find!
“Three Days at Anantara”
Jun 08, 2026GlobeTrotting681087
I stayed at Anantara for three days and had a wonderful experience.
The room was cozy, and the building beautifully reflected the rich traditions and history of Chiang Mai.
A special thanks to Jessie at the reception desk, who took great care of me from check-in to check-out. Her kindness and attention to detail made my stay very comfortable and enjoyable.
If you are considering a spa treatment, I highly recommend the Anantara Spa. The therapy was conducted with great care and professionalism. My therapist, Nadear, was exceptionally skilled and provided an outstanding experience.
