    Our opinion

    Hotel description

    Set amongst sixty acres of beautiful grounds that incorporates rice paddies and plantations, Mandarin Oriental Dhara Dhevi is a magnificent resort from which to experience fascinating North Thailand. Drawing inspiration from traditional Southeast Asian Lanna structures, the resort’s magnificent architecture reflects the region’s rich heritage. Exotic teak furnishings create luxurious interiors that complement the lotus ponds and fragrant jasmine that are scattered through the tropical gardens. The resort’s excellent facilities contribute to the impression of a serene retreat, from the cosy ambience of the library to the naturally landscaped swimming pool. The spa was modelled on a Burmese royal palace and blends European, Arabic and Asian techniques to offer an extensive range of treatments, such as the Lanna Massage which is rarely practiced today in Northern Thailand. The resort is also home to the Oriental Culinary Academy Chiang Mai, where guests can learn the art of Thai cuisine. Further facilities include four restaurants serving international and local cuisine, a traditional market that hosts a range of speciality shops and designer boutiques, and guided cultural walking tours. The guestrooms are spacious and luxurious, decorated in keeping with the traditional architecture, using wood finishes and antiques. Set amongst the gardens with open terraces, they are luxurious and serene. Perfect for relaxation in magnificent surroundings.
