Ulasan Kireethara Boutique Resort

Kiree Thara is a beautiful, and small well-built resort that is away from the city centre yet near enough if you have transport. It is about 8 km from the city. Our group of 7 stayed for 10 days and another joined us for 5. The highlight of staying there is the Saturday farmers market at Nana's Jungle, which is a small residential enclave just 5 minutes walking distance. People from all over Chiangmai go there for the freshly baked bread and free coffee. It is absolutely charming for city folks to spend a morning there as local handicrafts, nice food, soft live music and fresh produce abound. Back to the resort. You wake up to a view of Doi Suthep (executive suites, rooms 303 and 403 side) and cockerels crowing. Its gardens are very well-maintained as is the pool. The staff are generally helpful though not many speak English. We have stayed there many times and this trip was after a hiatus of 4 years due to the pandemic. It would have been nice if the resort keeps a record of their guests' preference, especially repeat long staying guests. Perhaps it was too much to ask, for instance, to ensure there are more hangers instead of just 2-3 in the wardrobe. No extras were given until I spoke to the boss personally. Extra tissue boxes for the toilet/counter area would have been nice but these were not forthcoming. probably because they did not have enough of the wooden boxes to put the loose tissue in. A small microwave oven to heat up food in the bar/kitchenette area would be perfect since there is no room service. You get 2 bottles of water daily. Breakfast selection is rather limited although I believe the food in their cafe is good. The resort is aging but it is okay if you like a countryside feel where things are rough around the edges. Wifi is slow and needs improvement but if you are on holiday, who cares?! I think the price per night is not cheap by Chiangmai standards, so they should level up with more attention to detail, for instance checking that everything works before they check in guests. My shower rose was jammed but it was resolved rather quickly, thanks to the boss who bore the brunt of my complaints. And yes, a small vase of fresh flowers in the room to calm my nerves is a nice touch. Thank you, Bob! Wish you all the best for your resort.
