Tout, tout, tout!!!! Le personnel est extraordinaire: merci à eux et à mme La Directrice. Le lieu: tout n'est que beauté!

de devoir quitter ce lieu ;(

Tutto al Toop

I like how it’s blended with nature. Also the villa design and decoration is beautiful. The staff were very kind and respectful.

As much as we like how the resort is blended with the nature, we were also bothered by the sounds from the night species.

We loved the residence that we stayed in, so spacious, flowers everywhere. Cleaning and service was fabulous. All the staff were friendly and so helpful. Our boys really liked Note as he offered us an amazing upgrade at a very reasonable price as it was our first visit and it was worth it. We enjoyed the trip to the elephants

Our stay at Four Seasons Chiang Mai was very special. The unparralleled views of the rice paddies with the mountains in the distance needs to be experienced first hand. We stayed in one of the larger residences and it had a silly amount of space. Think Archtitectual Digest surrounded by lush forest. The living areas could easily accommodate three generations of families on vacation. Sonny was our butler and she made sure our villa was impeccable and helped with our requests. The morning buffet and the two main restaurants Khao and North always served delicious meals and cocktails. Alissa, GG and the restuarant staff were attentive and friendly. The kids club and family cultural experiences were brilliant and the staff, Heder, Fern and Apple were wonderful. Our spa experiences were so relaxing and all of the staff are experts in their field, including Kate. Thanks to Anthony, the General Manager for the fun chats and checking in to see how our stay was. It was perfect.

We loved everything. This hotel combines nature with luxury in a truly unique way. It’s not for everyone, but for those who appreciate this kind of experience, it’s probably one of the five most beautiful and inspiring hotels in the world. Anthony, the manager, does an amazing job together with the entire team. The service here is of the highest standard. The food is good, but there is room for improvement. It should be taken to the next level to match the exceptional quality of the rest of the experience.

The attention the staff paid to all our requirements was amazing

First time at a Four Seasons. Beautiful resort. Beautiful rooms. Amazing relaxed vibe. Food is well above what I would expect from a hotel, it’s high end restaurant quality. But the service… The service is impeccable. Everyone at the resort greets me by name, extremely helpful, kind and friendly. Not cheap by a stretch, but worth the experience. Want to specifically call out Jimmy at concierge, amazing support and service.

Tutto meraviglioso, servizio impeccabile

I stay at this hotel every year and I would like to give a special mention to the hotel team: Yu GG Nan Ohm Turk Air at North Jean Lek Mix Sak Bell at the pool 😁, beautiful young people always helpful and smiling 👌 Ashley, the exceptionally empathetic and highly skilled best manager 🥳. It's thanks to these people that I want to come back...

We really enjoyed our stay at Four Seasons Resort Chiang Mai. The resort itself is gorgeous. The gardens, the big trees, the rice fields, and the mountain views are just stunning. The pool area is beautiful too. The food was excellent — especially the breakfast. The buffet selection was really impressive and everything tasted fantastic. We thought the food was top class. The service was very good and all the staff were super friendly. We also loved the WhatsApp service — they replied really fast and made everything easy. The only thing is that the prices feel quite high compared to other luxury hotels in Asia, and some small things like sparkling water at breakfast are charged extra. If you are sensitive to noise, we would recommend taking a Pool Villa instead of a Pavilion, as you can hear the guests walking above you. The Pavilions need a refurbishment imo. Overall we had a very nice stay and would definitely recommend the resort.

Everything was perfect for this stay. Everything from the first greeting on arrival to our departure I had absolutely nothing to complain about. The breakfast was incredible -- with the warm items changing every morning. All the staff are incredible... everyone from pool and gym staff up to management were extremely helpful. They helped us arrange transportation; signed us up for fun activities on-site; and did everything to ensure a perfect stay. It took a little flexibility to arrange dinner off the menu our last night due to a special event happening in the Khao restaurant -- but the food was fantastic. Some of the best we've had on the entire trip. We would definitely love to visit this property again in the future!

There was really nothing I could think of to improve things!

Beautiful and amazingly well kept grounds.

We spent four nights here before moving into the old city of Chiangmai and I was honestly sad to leave. From the moment the car left us in the lobby the staff made us feel so loved and welcome. Check in was very smooth and some nice tea was given to us as well as a flower necklace. The sweet lady at check in and a driver took us to our room in a golf cart. The room was spacious and well equipped. Extra large bathtub and great shower. Amenities include a fridge, nice sized tv, ample furniture and a great outside area complete with a swinging sofa. Coffee machine and tea are provided along with lots of bottled water. Also there’s a safe and ironing board and a nice bowl of welcome fruit. Housekeeping was superb as well as turn down service. We ate breakfast twice and the selection was varied and tasty. Breakfast was very satisfying and the service excellent. We walked around the resort several times. The layout is beautiful was landscaping that includes rice patties and lots of trees and flowers and includes ducks and a water buffalo. We also used the pool and jacuzzi and again top notch service from the staff. Everything was kept extremely clean. The location is close to attractions like Tiger kingdom and elephant camps. There is a restaurant close to the back gate and a 7/11 about a 15 minute walk away. Overall this Four Seasons resort was the best choice for this vacation. Thank you Four Seasons Chiangmai staff for a memorable experience.

De ontvangst, de service, het constant helpen bij het maken van een juist programma, de omgeving, het zwembad en het sporten: rennen rond het terrein, tennis of Muay Thai waren allemaal fantastisch.

Pool with fantastic view, amazing staff, especially Oh, who was our tennis hitting partner, and, at the end, our friend! The management should be proud of having him! We enjoyed the rice barn dinner experience, the pool at the villa, room service, spa (we went 3 times and each time was incredible), the gym!

Everything about this hotel and experience is fantastic. The staff are outstanding (especially Alisa). The property is quite beautiful and meticulously maintained. The rooms are spacious, in excellent condition, well maintained, with great attendants. The restaurants are very well staffed and the food is excellent. Overall, it’s a wonderful experience. HIGHLY recommended.

We have just checked out and cannot say enough good things about our stay. Everything was simply outstanding — the service, the room, and most of all, the incredible team. Every staff member was warm, attentive, and genuinely caring, making us feel truly welcomed and spoiled throughout our stay. The room was stunning, beautifully maintained, and we were honestly impressed from the very first moment. This was an exceptional experience and one we will remember fondly. Thank you to the entire team for such high-level hospitality and for making our stay so special. We would absolutely love to return and highly recommend your hotel.

Our first visit to Thailand and the Four Seasons Chiang Mai. Everything from start to finish was amazing. A brief summary of the highlights. We stayed in a Pool Villa. Spectacular. The jacuzzi and pool combo is fantastic and the ability to tailor water temperature was chefs kiss. Room layout is great and the outdoor space was beautiful. Nothing I would do improve the Villa Food amazing. Breakfast buffet was world class and the two main restaurants offered great views and service. Service. As you would expect world class. From front desk to pool to dining to spa to housekeeping. All done exceptionally well Spa. While in a converted Villa the message services were well done and met our expectations. Main Pool. Service and views were excellent. The only quibble I would have is to heat the pool to some level. Being unheated makes the water a bit cold. Grounds. Exceptional. Excursions. Pretty much anything you want they can arrange. Would highly recommend the Bike Tour. That was very fun and educational of the surrounding area. In sum. World class. Highly recommended

Everything!!!! Property is incredible!

Świetne śniadania, zamawialiśmy do pokoju, chyba najlepsze jakie jedliśmy, a podróżujemy dużo. Jajka i warzywa z własnej hodowli i ogrodu, jogur robiony na miejscu. Bardzo ładnie podane, świetna Matcha. Przepiękny obiekt, ogrody, podgrzewany basen przy willi do 35 stopni, co jest rzadkością w Tajlandii.

Byliśmy z córkami (4 i 5 lat), już pierwszego dnia jeden z gości z sąsiedniej Willi zgłosił, że dzieci są zbyt głośno na basenie należącym do willi, którą wynajmowaliśmy, ok godziny 17-18. Nigdy wcześniej nie zdarzyła Nam się w żadnym obiekcie podobna sytuacja, dzieci są spokojne i nurkowały w basenie. Z pełną świadomością wybraliśmy Willę z basenem, odgrodzoną wysokim murem żeby mieć prywatność i nie musieć chodzić do basenu głównego. Nie jest to hotel przystosowany dla dzieci, 95% gości to osoby dorosłe, które chcą wypocząć, przy basenie głównym panuje cisza i spokój. Nie mamy pretensji do hotelu, obsługa była świetna.

Everything

Nothing

We loved this magical property. Staff was so accommodating. We were able to schedule so many fun experiences. Breakfast was wonderful. Overall a great stay.

We were choosing between this and a highly recommended city hotel. We wanted a true retreat to come back to, and this was the right call. It’s in Mae Rim, so most things involve a drive, but Chiang Mai is still easy by car. The trade only shows up if you try to do multiple round trips in a day (Wat Phra That Doi Suthep at sunrise, back to relax, then into the Old City for dinner). A few notes: Common areas We stayed during festive season, and occupancy was high, but it rarely felt crowded. I’d credit the landscape design for that. Common areas stayed calm and there was ample space at the adults-only pool. Breakfast was the one area that felt crowded, especially late morning. We followed up on a few orders, and there was no greeting at the entrance. Earlier in the morning was no issue. Room selection We stayed in an Upper Garden Pavilion, and I’d recommend an upper-level pavilion. The extra height lends itself to more privacy, and the veranda is genuinely usable. We found it perfect for reading or a quiet meditation between activities. One nitpicky point for a resort at this level: a few small finish issues that went beyond normal wear and tear should’ve been caught before arrival. Nothing was broken per se or limited functionality of the room. The team offered to move us and did what they could to remediate, but we were already settled and didn’t want the disruption. Service and communication Service was professional and consistent, but it didn’t feel especially personalized. The app helped bridge that gap—we could handle small requests or get a quick suggestion without stopping at the front desk. Housekeeping was the one area that felt a bit awkward and could’ve been tightened up. Morning make-up timing was sometimes inconvenient. Turndown was more standard than personalized. None of this was a major issue, but at this price point it should feel seamless. Dining On-property dining is good, but local restaurants in Mae Rim and the Old City are worth the effort. Thai Kitchen Live is the exception. I won’t spoil the surprises, but I’d book it for your first evening. Breakfast was an F&B highlight. Action stations, fruit stations, Thai options, and the standard western options were all excellent. Even with the late-morning crowding, it was one of the better hotel breakfasts in the Four Seasons portfolio. North by Four Seasons was a miss for us. Service ran slow because of a kitchen issue, and the menu felt surprisingly generic relative to the setting. Grounds and on-property activities The grounds are a big reason this place works. You can spend the day moving between the adults-only pool and the rice fields and feel like you actually stayed at the resort, not only used it as a base. Rice planting and buffalo washing are both worth doing. There are other more active experiences and and what I heard to be an amazing spa, but did not take advantage of those. I’d plan for at least one full day on-property. Final take This property is currently rated as a Three MICHELIN Key resort, so expectations were naturally high. Even with a few misses, it wouldn’t change the recommendation. This was one of the strongest Four Seasons stays we’ve enjoyed. At this price point, everything should feel fully polished, and a few things weren’t, which surprised us.

Simply beautiful

Main pool was very cold

The atmosphere and cleanliness

It was all wonderful

foi uma experiência muito interessante

banheiro da primeiro quarto entupido

Great location , beautiful , untouched but looked after nature . Excellent staff who are very trained up but not bulging over ;

Amazing. Just amazing. My husband and I stayed here for four nights as part of a recent big birthday trip. Our room was very spacious and comfortable. The setting of the hotel is amazing, beautiful and so very tranquil. The staff are amazing, so friendly, helpful and polite. The food was good, especially the Thai restaurant. It was a real wrench leaving and I’m still pining! We have travelled extensively and stayed at lots of hotels but the Four Seasons Chang Mai is a very special place.

We loved our stay at Four Seasons Chiang Mai. The setting is beautiful and peaceful, with rice fields, lush gardens and views of the hills. The grounds are well kept and the whole property feels calm. Staff were consistently courteous, warm and attentive. Our room was comfortable, well equipped and a place we were happy to spend time and relax. The veranda was a highlight. Each room includes a veranda with a swinging seat or lounge. We spent our evenings out there looking over the gardens and taking in the views. We expected resort pricing and this is a premium stay. Even so, food and drinks felt high compared with prices in Chiang Mai, and there are limited alternatives close to the hotel. It helps to know this before you arrive, so you plan around it. We also did not enjoy the daily farmers parade. Each afternoon staff walk through the resort with instruments and singing for about ten minutes. It felt staged rather than authentic and did not add to the experience for us, although other guests might enjoy it. Overall, Four Seasons Chiang Mai is a beautiful property with excellent service and a peaceful setting, ideal for a special occasion or a getaway.

Very kind Hotel staff,pool villa,breakfast,foods,nature…

Fresh fruit could be served in the room every day.

Everything was amazing. The staff are just lovely and so helpful. Beautiful setting. I could go on and on …!

It’s quite pricey when you’re there but that’s to be expected really.

Absolutely amazing property. One of the Four Seasons finest properties. We have stayed in the Four Seasons all around the world. This has to be in the top five. Along with Bangkok, Florence, The service was unbelievable. The food was amazing. The views were spectacular. The rooms were spacious. Definitely recommend this hotel. If we come back to this part of the world, we will definitely stay here.

Tout était parfait

The facilities are excellent, and staying here feels like living in a magical jungle. Every detail is meticulously cared for, just as you would expect from a Four Seasons resort. We ended up not wanting to leave and spent most of our days enjoying the resort itself. Food, room, facilities, service are all exceptional

The hotel is a 30–60 minute drive from Chiang Mai, depending on traffic. Exploring the city can be inconvenient, as each trip requires a taxi and takes time. While city hotels don’t offer the same resort setting, there are luxury options at more reasonable prices.

Fantastische kamer in een prachtig resort

We first tried to stay here for New Year’s Eve but couldn’t get a room — and after finally coming back nine months later, we understood why it’s always fully booked. Every single expectation we had was not only met, but exceeded. The resort is absolutely stunning. We’ve never seen so much green in one place — lush gardens, ponds, rice fields, and flowers everywhere you look. The villas are beautifully integrated into nature, giving the impression that the hotel is almost empty, even when it’s not. You rarely see anyone nearby, which makes it incredibly peaceful and private. The star of our stay was definitely the breakfast — outstanding local food, a wide variety of options, and impeccable service. Every member of the staff seems genuinely happy to make your day better. We also joined a few of the resort activities, like washing the buffalo — such a unique and surprisingly fun experience! Our room was spacious, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed, with a large bathroom and a lovely outdoor area overlooking the pond and rice fields. It may not be brand-new, but it’s extremely cozy and full of charm. This is a true five-star property where luxury meets serenity. The service is flawless, the setting is unforgettable, and we can’t wait to come back again.

I had doubts coming here since the property is more than 30 years old and has changed hands before becoming an FS! But all of these disappeared the moment we arrived! It has been seamlessly renovated and everything was just spectacular! Don’t expect modern amenities like USB ports or electric drapery, but the place is so beautiful you don’t miss it! This is definitely one of the best hotels we’ve been to! My daughter says it’s the best FS!

쉬기 좋은 공간입니다

Everything..main highlight is food from various restaurants inside.

A great hotel with great service.

There is an effortlessness to the Four Seasons Chiang Mai that is surprising and impressive. We stayed for 5 nights in a pool villa, which we strongly recommend. The interior was resplendent. The air conditioning was bone chilling. The bed was exceptional and classic Four Seasons. I thought repeatedly, when I woke up each morning, of being in a warm cocoon and how each minute was sheer pleasure. I love the Four Seasons bedding and pillows. The blackout curtains were true blackout. The bathroom area was spacious and we used the indoor and outdoor shower areas. The products were Natura Bisse and in bulk form. The WiFi was excellent. We had a transfer from another hotel which was easy and efficient. The pool villa is a standalone structure essentially with walls all around it and then there is almost a moat of water then on the inside of the walls. The entire area is really ensconced in white noise from two small man-made waterfalls/water features outside on each side of the room. You look into essentially jungle with a small diverted river to the front of the room. This offered complete privacy visually and audibly. We have the sense that these pool villas were added after the original opening of the resort and they were added in somewhat densely configured format. I would in no way be concerned about this. The architect/designer who put this together is brilliant because no sacrifices of privacy were made. We felt like we were on our own planet when we were in our room. We spent most of our time in our pool reading. The pool was quite large and was very comfortable to be in. There was really no sense of any pool chemicals. It’s practically like we were in fresh water. We came in the low season. We love the rainy season for Asian travel because the rain cools things off. We were never interrupted. Take our advice and come in September. At the center of the facility are rice paddies and a medium sized lake that most of the buildings face. They also keep a handful of water buffalos who you can meet. They seem very happy and well tended to. You can wash a water buffalo (while it placidly chomps on leaves), which was fun. While we were washing one, there was another water buffalo about 75 feet away, playing in mud and then jumping in the water. I’ve never seen a happier animal. Across the pond is the adults-only pool, which offers a quite exceptional view of the nature and abundant lush trees. My husband also took a curry cooking class with Chef Tor, and he felt it was such a wonderful experience. The resort is a rather far distance from Chiang Mai itself, it takes about 40 minutes to drive into town. We stayed at another property in the city for three days before coming to the Four Seasons. We would recommend this even if none of the places in the city proper are at this caliber. You just spend less time in transit. Once you are at the Four Seasons, it’s just best to stay here. The food is delicious. There are two main restaurants. One is Thai and the other is Western. My husband has more adventurous tastes and I have more bland conventional tastes and both of us were very satisfied. The breakfast is a buffet and menu order set-up. We found the food to be fresh and delicious. We also had room service several times for breakfast and found it to be really quite exceptional. The staff is professional and focused. They want you to have a very good time. They are not overbearing, which can be a problem at other brands. They quickly learned our preferences — we love sparkling water, for instance, and every night at dinner they would have several bottles on ice for us. These people are hospitality professionals. Alisa at Khao deserves a special shoutout for her fabulous hospitality. What a pro. The spa is top notch, we had some of the best massages of our lives there. The concierges are all pros. We asked ourselves if we were going to miss “the beach” in our Asian “beach” vacation and we didn’t. We didn’t miss the ocean at all. We are a gay couple. The staff could not have cared less, which is how we like it. We are fairly regular consumers of resorts of this caliber in Asia. Benchmarking this against other Thai resorts, I would rather stay here than stay at Amanpuri in Phuket. I would put this in a very high caliber and believe it represents among the best in Asia. I did not expect this and was pleasantly surprised. It made me want to stay at more Four Seasons. We booked through a Four Seasons Preferred Partners advisor and recommend doing so. We get the sense that is meaningful to the staff. I’m not sure why but you definitely get the vibe that it seems to be important to them. Completely unrelated to this truly luxurious resort and really only a cautionary note if you are considering staying at a high end resort in Asia, read my review of (barf) Mandapa: A Ritz-Carlton reserve. That place is comically awful and really a corporate dumpster for the most basic of people.

Friendly n considerate staff

Nothing

There really aren't enough words to describe how magical this place is. We stayed in the residence and had a full-time house assistant. Aoi is her name and she is just beautiful. She took such great care of us and was happy to do so and I cried when it was time to leave, mainly because I adored her! The staff, the beauty, and the spa are a chef's kiss! This is my second time here and we always leave wanting more. I highly recommend!

That we had to leave!

.

A very beautiful hotel, uniquely integrated into nature. The manager, Antony, is very attentive and passionate about his work. The staff is very, very friendly, helpful, and highly trained. We highly recommend this hotel.

Outstanding hotel about 30–45 minutes from Chiang Mai. Guest rooms and restaurants are nestled amid rice fields. The Thai cuisine is excellent, and the private dining experience is truly unforgettable. The team is incredibly friendly and exceptionally helpful. The hotel manager is attentive and thoughtful. We celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary here, and the team went above and beyond to make it a perfect occasion. Thank you – we’ll gladly return and won’t wait another 25 years!

Came back here after our last stay 12 years ago. The place is as magical as it was back then. You can find yourself staring endlessly at the rice paddies while sipping a cocktail. The resort is a prime example of the aesthetics that the Four Seaons does so well on its properties. We upgraded from a room overlooking the rice paddies to one of the newer villas with private pool. There is a bit of a trade-off to make here. The villas are wonderful and private. Sitting on the deck when the rain pounces down on the pool is magical. The trees that border the pool regularly drop lily flowers into the pool making it even more surreal. But in the villas you do not have the view over the rice field. Overall, I did love the villa choice. We alternated between hanging by our people and one of the two resort pools. The food is great, but I thought not as good as in the Tented Camp Golden Triangle Four Seasons where we also stayed. But like many Four Seasons in the world, this property has expanded over the years, and I missed the personalized service that is so unique to the Four Seasons.

Beautiful hotel and spectacular hotel grounds and amenities.

Everything about this place is exceptional. The staff from the minute you arrive to when you leave are always trying to assist in making your stay the best possible. Food and options a plenty with a team that just want to help. All in a setting of rice fields and nature. Cannot help but relax. The cooking class was a real eye opener on how quick and easy great Thai food is to make when you use a few tricks. Definitely worth doing to prolong the lovely Thai flavours. We were offered an upgrade on arrival to a pool villa which we took as all reviews have said they are worth it. We agree wholeheartedly. We don’t return to many places as we like to try new things, this is on the return list for us.

Beautiful resort, friendly staff. Lots of complimentary activities I had fun with buffalo bathing Great buffet breakfast

I had an incredible stay at the Four Seasons Chiang Mai. Every detail was flawless-from the tranquil setting to the beautifully designed rooms. What truly stood out was the service-warm, attentive, and beyond five-star. The staff anticipated every need with genuine care. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this resort to anyone visiting Chiang Mai!

I went to The Khao restaurant for lunch and to spend some relaxing time. It was Such a great experience! The view was amazing and the atmosphere was so peaceful. The food was excellent. Thank you to Kwan & Ann who made the experience unforgettable! They are so kind and really attentive. I’ll definitely be back!

Facility and gardens are stunning! Flawless service and delicious food. This resort has the best fungshui of any place I have stayed, and even if you are not a believer in fungshui, this place is so relaxing, yet visually and culturally stimulating, you will want to stay forever! Water buffalos and rice fields are a unique experience beyond fun!!

Not enough can be said about the helpfulness of the staff at this Four Seasons. They had a considerable number of activities that were both educational and fun to break up the day between dips in the pool for families with younger children. Would definitely stay here again if/when I were to return to the Chiang Mai area. We were so happy with the resort that I felt bad leaving for the various excursions we planned. I could not recommend more highly.

Amazing property, rooms and activities. Set in the middle of the lush forest and rice fields.

The hotel is an amazing oasis. The food and service was beyond. A quick relaxing drive from the airport and downtown Chaing Mai. The staff was so quick to respond to any request and so accommodating! It was a perfect escape from the city. The ONLY place to stay when visiting Chaing Mai. Will definitely be back.

Beautifully done, a paradise in the jungle

Wonderful peaceful place

The hotel was so beatififul

O resort é maravilhoso! Serviço espetacular!

This is a stunningly beautiful hotel with elegant spacious rooms and private terraces. The food was excellent. And of course the superb standard of Asian service was present throughout. It is worth noting that the hotel is about a 30-40 minute drive from Chiang Mai.

This is the best resort we have ever stayed at.The nature is absolutely divine, the kindness and atentiveness of the staff was next level. The food in all the restaurants was perfect. The peace and sounds of birds and nature was heavenly. I wish we could have stayed longer, we will definitely be back.

Literally nothing, it was perfect

Amazing stay, had high expectations but it exceeded. Really peaceful and beautiful everywhere. Highly recommend to do the activities offered. Breakfast is excellent. Gym equipped with new Technogym.

Would have been nice if we were informed about sauna. Was sad to find out only when we were leaving.

We stayed here as a family of 3 over Christmas break. We stayed here 3 nights, 4 days. Upon arrival we were greeted and brough to the check-in area across from the main desk. We went to lunch at their on site restaurant and before we were finished our room was ready (we arrived early). I believe the daily breakfast was included in our reservation which was wonderful and tasty. We opted to take part in the "buffalo" washing activity which was actually washing a water buffalo. There are 2, these must be the cleanest animals in all of Thailand considering they are literally washed by the guests every day! We didn't opt for the bike tour, I think we ran out of time but heard good things, so I recommend it. The pool was nice and relaxing. It overlooked the rice paddies on the property with a smaller adult only pool directly below it. Our room was an upgraded large single room, they call it the Upper Rice Terrace Pavilion. I do recommend the upper upgrade vs. the ground level since it provides you a wonderful view. We traveled with our son, so he had a rollaway bed basically touching our bed, I would say if you have the means, go for one of the larger residences. Our room also had its own separate outdoor porch area which was about 25' away from the main room via a raised walkway and provided you excellent views. Overall extremely impressed with the service and quality of the food at this resort.

My family and I stayed at the Four Seasons Chiang Mai in December 2024. We selected a two-bedroom villa, which was a great choice as the room was spacious and comfortable. While I liked the room as a whole, I did find the layout to be a bit weird -- for example, there was a random staircase of at least fifty stairs reaching a smaller room with a nice view but it didn't really seem to fit in with the rest of the room and we never utilized it. One element we didn't realize until we arrived on site was the in-room butler included, who sometimes even stays the night. While the element of an overnight butler in your room is a bit strange, it was a nice personalized feel. The property is well-designed, with the facilities planted around rice paddies. As such, there are rice farming tours offered in which an on-site farmer teaches groups how to plant and husk rice. There are pools overlooking the rice fields as well, and while we never utilized them, they seemed to be nice. The food on site was high quality as well. The breakfast offered a spread of Thai and Western food, and I particularly enjoyed the DIY Thai Teas. I found the service as a whole to be up to the usual care of Four Seasons quality and would recommend the property to anyone visiting Chiang Mai. The only warning I will provide is that the Four Seasons is a thirty-minute drive from Chiang Mai without traffic, and longer with traffic. While taxis in Thailand are quite cheap, the drive can get daunting.
