This is the second time we have stayed at Lanna Mantra. It is a beautiful hotel in a very beautiful location. I would recommend it to anyone.
It is only a ten minute taxi ride into town and so nice and peaceful to be beside the Ping River. The staff are very friendly, the rooms are lovely and gardens beautiful.
I wouldn t stay anywhere else in Chiang Mai!
Reservation service:
Very good and very easy

Accommodation and facilities:
A gem of a hotel, nicely out of the hustle & bustle of the city but not too far that it costs a few pounds by taxi to get back if you use the hotel s free river boat to get into the city on a morning or the minibus on an evening.
Reservation service:
No problems booking through sawadee.com, would be happy to use them again.

Lanna Mantra is located 5 km from Chiang Mai Town.
The resort offer shuttle service, from airport and every day 10:30 morning (boat down Ping River)
Afternoon 18:00, (Van to Town) always on time, very useful for us.

The room was large, nice and clean, with a big balcony, a perfect peaceful place to relax.
Cleaning, garden, pool, restaurant and staff were excellent and helpful.
Restaurant: Very good food, for small money.
All in All: Full value for your money, we will highly recommend it to all, this is a little bit paradise and we are coming back ;o) Danmark

Accommodation and facilities:
Lanna Mantra is an beautiful lush country retreat, stunning garden setting and river side pool/bar make this a very peaceful and restful hotel. For anyone who wants to get away from it all, this is the perfect hotel. Service is good, maybe it a little too laid back, but still helpful when you want it. 10 mins ride into Chang Mai town can be a problem come back in the evening as some tuk tuk s don t want to make the ride. All in all this place is highly recommended, we loved it!

The resort has a lovely setting by the river with lush garden which could be one of the highlights of the stay. Located about 15 minutes away from the city centre, so this is a good choice for those who prefer more peaceful environment.
The room offers basic facilities which can make the stay comfortable. They should upgraded the blankets to duvets. The room was relatively dark due to limited lighting but could be quite romantic for those who prefer. The balcony makes it more special.
Menu offers limited choices, breakfast was basic with cooked eggs. The resort should consider to offer choices of coffees for breakfast instead of making additional charges.
The resort offers shuttle services which were very useful. I must say that they were very flexible with the shuttle service.
Staff were attentive and helpful.
All in all, it was a wonderful stay and good value for money.
Reservation service:
The booking service was smooth and quick. Professional and well handled.

Loved this hotel! So beautiful and quiet and clean. Large rooms, nice balconies and clean bathrooms. Gorgeous pool, setting and excellent restaurant. The staff are amazing and bend over backwards to help you. The in room massages are good and affordable! One of the things we liked and disliked the most was the location - it is outside of Chiang Mai city so you have to plan to go into town and get home at night (can be a bit expensive). If you are interested in a relaxing, peaceful, natural setting and experience then this is it! If you want to be in the action and fun or if you are scared of lizards then do not stay here! We would definately return in a second!
Reservation service:
Very good - would definately use it again and recommend it highly to others!

What a wonderful place! Peaceful athmosphere, nice and clean rooms, helpful staff, swimmingpool in the garden near the river ... paradise!
However it is located quite far from Chiang Mai inner city - at least 10 minutes by taxi or tuk tuk. Anyway: Our children and we loved this place!

Highly recommended! A very relaxing place with its own own character. My wife and I stayed in a standard room by the pond; and although we thought of upgrading to be by the river, we thoroughly enjoyed our spacious room with its beautiful setting. Pool setting by the river is truly magical. Lighting could be a bit stronger in the room - but a small matter. Staff were great, food very good... and the grounds exceptional. We rented a car which made the place very convenient, so highly recommend this combo for those interested in driving in the area... although access would still be convenient by tuk-tuk or cab. We would definitely return.
Reservation service:
Excellent. Easy to use and efficient in having all the information needed.

We loved our stay at the Lanna Mantra Hotel in Chiang Mai. The room was lovely, the grounds beautiful, and the staff extremely kind and welcoming.
When we arrived at the hotel we were given the standard room we requested. It was a bit musty, but adequate. The next day we moved to a triple (which was on the second floor). It was perfect for the duration of our stay. It is a bit inconvenient to be outside of the city, and the taxi fare can certainly add up. The hotel s restaurant is adequate after a long day of touring, but not somewhere you d want to eat regularly.
Overall, we loved our time at Lanna Mantra and missed the intimate hospitality when we flew south to the beaches. I actually got teary saying goodbye to the staff.
Reservation service:
Easy and friendly--just like travel in Thailand!
