Khum Phaya Resort & Spa Boutique Collection
Set in the relatively peaceful Nong Pa Khrang neighbourhood of Mueang Chiang Mai, this boutique spa resort offers a calming retreat without straying far from the city's shopping centres, restaurants, and attractions. A buggy service runs guests from the main road to the property, and the landscaped grounds and pool area create a genuinely tranquil atmosphere that contrasts well with the busier old town.
Rooms are spacious and comfortable, with pool-access options available, and the staff receives consistent praise for being kind and attentive. The resort includes spa treatments, a swimming pool, and on-site dining, making it possible to spend a full day on the property without needing to venture out. Visitors should be aware, however, that food, drinks, and spa services are priced at a premium relative to what some guests feel is delivered, and a number of reviews suggest that certain rooms and facilities are beginning to show their age.

Reviews from Google
Great resort. Beautiful grounds and entrance. Lovely atmosphere; quiet and relaxing. Comfortable and great facilities. Rooms are big and comfortable (pool access) Staff were very nice and helpful. Swimming pool area is lovely and clean but a bit cold in November. Breakfast is good with good variety. Location is a bit isolated, so taxi / grab required to move around and visit town. They offer shuttle (free) service to town, but just once a day. 7-eleven and other shops in the area. It’s definitely a return.
Nice hotel. Nice pool. Rooms are great, bed comfy. We had poolside view which was nice. Food, drinks and spa is massively overpriced. We laid by the pool for an afternoon and would’ve liked to sat by the pool bar to have a snack and drink but they didn’t open it until 4pm which was disappointing. The service and rooms overall are more like a 4 star rather than 5 star hotel and the price was okay for western standards in Thailand but retrospectively I would say it’s also slightly overpriced. Especially cause the nearby area doesn’t have that much to offer.
This must have been a great resort in its heyday. Grounds are still very nice but the rooms seriously need updating and proper renovation. At this level, it is barely a 3-star hotel.

Tips for Visiting Wellness & Spas
Learn Wat Pho First
Wat Pho in Bangkok is the birthplace of traditional Thai massage education. Their on-site massage pavilion offers excellent treatments from students and graduates at reasonable prices — and you know the technique is authentic.
Communicate Pressure Preferences
Thai massage can be intense. Say 'bao bao' for lighter pressure or 'nак nак' for harder. A good therapist will check in, but don't hesitate to speak up — suffering in silence defeats the purpose.
Book Longer Sessions
A 60-minute massage is fine, but 90 or 120 minutes allows the therapist to work thoroughly. The price difference is often only 200–400 THB for an extra hour — worth it for a deeper, more relaxing experience.
