I really enjoyed my stay the staff were excellent. The rooms were nice. The breakfast buffet was really good. A couple things I didn’t like was you had to pay to use the safe in your room. I also wish they had better dining options. They had a very limited menu in the restaurant. But other than that, my day was very good.

It's a nice property. Has that regal feel with oriental design elements everywhere. it's a larger hotel vs. a botique hotel so they have many amenities on site, and it's really well staffed. Property is kept up very well. I thought the pool area was a highlight as it has a nice view of the mountains in the background. I really liked their green pool towels. I never see that color anymore.

Happy Stay at the Empress

Friendly, respectful, helpful staff. Good location, easy access to church, to transport and food hubs. Close to Night Bazaar. Breakfast is good, lots of fruits, too. Reasonably priced. Happy to stay in this hotel. Will stay again if we're back in ChiangMai.
