Cmor by Recall Hotels Chiang Mai

The environment is great, the room is spacious and very comfortable, and the service is excellent.

The hotel service was excellent, and the buffet was delicious. Our room had a cute tent for kids, a mini-fridge, and a coffee machine, making for a very comfortable stay. Plus, there are plenty of restaurants and bars right outside, making it super convenient to get around.

Everything else was fine, but the room was too noisy and didn't feel very secure. I only found out upon arrival that the hotel is located directly on a flight path, with numerous planes taking off and landing daily. It wasn't noticeable during the day, but it got quite loud during the quieter hours of early morning and evening. However, I did get to capture some beautiful sunset flights, so I didn't mind it too much. The real issue with noise, though, was an adjoining door in my room that connected to the next room. While it couldn't be opened from either side, there was a significant gap under the door. This meant I could clearly hear conversations and phone sounds from the next room, let alone if they were doing anything… less appropriate. If you really wanted to, you could even see what they were doing in the next room reflected on the floor. The gap was big enough to slide a phone through and film. This made me feel very insecure and definitely lowered my rating for the overall environment.

The location is super convenient, right near One Nimman and Maya Mall, just a 10-minute walk away. It's also not far from the airport, about a 20-minute drive. We happened to visit during Songkran (the traditional Thai New Year and water festival), which was incredibly lively. At night, you could hear planes and the electronic music from the Maya Music Festival in the room. If you're a light sleeper, you might want to bring headphones. Facilities: Pretty standard, but the bedding was decent. Although the showerhead looked a bit old, the water pressure was good. The air conditioning was very powerful. Cleanliness: Generally quite clean. Hotel staff also came to clean daily, and you don't need to tip extra. Service: The staff were very friendly. The front desk could communicate in English and helped guests arrange motorbike taxis and tuk-tuks. The hotel also has a 16-seater minivan for airport transfers, costing only 300 Thai Baht. It's more cost-effective to use the hotel's transfer service if you're traveling with a group.
