Our favorite hotel in all of Chiang Mai
This is a fantastic hotel, excellent in every way. We have stayed there at least three times and are never disappointed. The staff are all first-class, from Alex the manager to housekeeping. The fees are very reasonable for the value. We visit Chiang Mai every year, and the Centara is our favorite hotel in all of Chiang Mai.

Good big hotel
We stayed one night on 9th floor. Spacious newly renovated room with a beautiful view over the river and pool area. Good hot water pressure and aircon.
Very friendly staff.
Easy to find parking space on the big lot.
Walking distance to plenty of restaurants, massage places, hospital and convenience store just opposite the entrance.
A little bit far to old town but walkable to night bazar market.

We loved our stay at the hotel. The room was very comfortable and clean. The breakfast and evening buffets were really outstanding in terms of quality and selection. The staff were all so helpful and kind and had obviously been trained extremely well. I would not hesitate to recommend this hotel to anyone and we found it very good value for money.

This is a large / mega hotel. Opposite to some of the smaller boutiques. Looks like it was built in the 80s with heavy wood furniture, carpeted rooms very large bath. It is generous for space but bed runs on the small side. Mattresses had a slope from wear. Very unfriendly electrical system with rigid switches (very late 1970s design). Outlets for modern phones tablets and computers were difficult to find and access. Flat screen TV was an after thought. Water pressure was great, breakfast more than sufficient although the station attendants - especially noodle stand was hit and miss. Solid 7.5 to 8.1 overall. The Starbucks inspired cafe was nice, but a real business center area with printer would be a nice addition.
