The Rachmankha is much more than just a hotel. It is an experience. For the owner, who are two of Thailand�s most famous designers and architects, it is a creation of love and a treasury of Lanna art and Chinese antiquities, which can be found in every guest room and throughout the hotel. The combination of Lanna art and interior design, and the temple style architecture has created a haven of peace � the kind that penetrates you and touches you heart. This is an ideal hotel for people in need of rest and relaxation.

Now that we have stayed at Rachamankha, we could never stay anyplace else in Chiang Mai. The buildings and grounds are elegant in a very understated way. Everything is white, which allows the wood art and the Chinese antiquities to be showcased beautifully. The reception and service are delightful and sweet, and the food is delicious and varied. It is an absolute treasure, true value for the money.

This hotel is full of character; filled with antiques, beautiful open air courtyards, and wonderful flower arrangements. The staff are extremely welcoming and friendly. Even the owner was around and gave us a box of chocolates before we left. The hotel is in an excellent location which is right next to a wonderful buddhist temple and quietly tucked away for an afternoon next to the pool. The rooms are not overly luxurious but full of character and have what you need. This hotel is reccommended for travellers that appreciate character, and peace & quiet.

This place is so nice and tranquil hidden away in the old town centre and recently built but it looks 100 years old. The pictures on the web site do no do it justice. The food is amazing as well. Simply the best place i stayed in Thailand.

The Rachamankha is a superb boutique hotel in every respect. It is stunningly designed with tastefully sophisticated decor, gorgeous grounds, and impeccable service. It is right in the heart of old-town Chiang Mai but, once inside its tranquil walled garden, you are transported into a zen-like oasis of elegance. Quite simply, one of the nicest hotel properties I have experienced...

The pictures do not do this place justice! The architecture alone is worth the price of the stay. The people made us feel welcome all the time and service was impeccable. Would highly recommend the hotel.
