The 10 Best Hotels in Chiang Mai, Ranked
This lot leans heavily upscale, with a cluster sitting on or near the Ping River and a few more inside the old city walls. Shangri-La takes the top spot mainly on sheer weight of reviews, though the Four Seasons out among the rice paddies at Mae Rim is the one I'd point at for a proper splurge. Mad Monkey is the odd one out, a party hostel holding its own on rating alone.
