Raya Heritage

Raya Heritage is a lovely, small boutique hotel that offers a calm and comfortable stay. The rooms are very clean, well maintained, and thoughtfully designed. What truly stands out is the staff — they are amazing, extremely helpful, and always warm and welcoming, which really enhances the overall experience. The only small downside was on Christmas Eve, when room service was closed. It would have been helpful to be informed of this in advance, as it meant we had to go out to get lunch unexpectedly. Overall, it’s a very good hotel with outstanding staff, and I would happily recommend it to others looking for a peaceful and high-quality stay.

We had an amazing few days at the Raya Heritage. The grounds are beautiful and impeccably clean! Rooms are very very spacious and the bed was incredibly comfortable. A small complaint was that the AC was a bit nosey. The mini bar/ snacks were also outside/ on the balcony which was a bit strange but again not a big issue. We got a top floor room but the view of the river was somewhat obstructed by the trees and roof but that didn’t bother us. We were given the pool option but we were unlikely to use it so opted for the top floor. The hotel is 20-25 mins cab ride out of old town but never had an issue getting a Grab. It is nestled amongst a local area so you do get some noise during the day across the river but nothing unpleasant. The stand out for us were the staff. They were all so lovely and warm. Every time we met any of them they all remembered us and referred to us by name. Such a personal service. Big shout out for the breakfast too - it was a la carte service and immaculate. All the items we tried were very high quality and delicious. So much better than the monster generic buffets you get at other hotels. If we return to Chiang Mai this is the only hotel we will be staying at!

Had an absolutely fantastic stay here!! From the moment I arrived the service was absolutely exceptional. I was particularly thankful to First who helped me sort my transportation logistics for my subsequent plans. The room was majestic — incredibly well designed and comfortable. Super comfortable bed, lots of ambient space, well designed and luxurious bathroom. The restaurant was excellent and I was surprised to have some of the best khao soi here that IMO was better than some of the Michelin recognized dedicated khao soi shops. The seasonal yi peng tasting menu was fun but not mind blowing, but the breakfast a la carte buffet was excellent. It is a bit remote but they offer transfers to town and other destinations, but TBH just staying on the premises was very relaxing and comfortable :)
