Aruntara Riverside Boutique Hotel

Very good boutique hotel Staff amazing We receive a treatment like kings in our honeymoon Very friendly staff and always was smiling and triyng to help in everything Great spa

Nice, relaxing and very homely

Easy to get it. Close with city. Clean and close with ping river.

Great hotel, beautiful room, great pool, excellent staff. The breakfast menu could use more variety.

Breakfast was a great mix of Western and Thai food. The bed was very comfortable, and the air conditioning worked great. The pool was beautiful. Everything about our stay here for 3 nights was excellent; would definitely recommend.

We had a very good stay at the Aruntara. Its a lovely hotel with a spa. I would highly recommend it.

This hotel was offering a special for a few nites stay. The hotel was as advertised, clean friendly place to stay with a charming look out of the river for breakfast. This is my first time to a botique hotel and it was a great experience. I would book this hotel again when visiting Ching Mai.

Stayed in the Deluxe room. It's a very nice small hotel nestled in a quiet part of the river. The view is peaceful and the hotel is clean. The staff were always friendly and helpful. Breakfast was great, they had all the essentials and Thai cuisine. Didn't have a chance to try lunch or dinner but the menu looked good. Van service to the market street was at 7 PM but was only one way so you have to grab a taxi or tuk tuk to come back. Bikes were free to rent if you wanted to visit somewhere nearby. Shower was hot, bathtub was a little small. Nothing really interesting on TV but I don't think anyone goes to Chiang Mai to just watch TV. The restaurant is located at the back of the hotel and the only way to access it is to walk through the middle which has no covering so grab an umbrella at the lobby doorway in case it rains. The pool is tucked in the corner and is somewhat private. Awesome friendly service, great price, definitely would stay here again.

Everything is beautiful here from a distance. But after staying there, I see how up close there can be a lot of issues. Our room's hot water wasn't working and it took 3 days for them to believe we were just idiots who couldn't wait 5 mins for it to get hot. It wasn't that the water didn't work that bothered us so much, but that they wouldn't listen to us every day when we complained. I felt like I had to get really angry in order for anyone to take us seriously and that really sucked. Eventually we changed rooms in time for one last actually hot shower but it soured the experience for us. Once we did switch rooms, I was told in person they would switch us to a suite with a river view for the inconvenience but when I came back with my husband we had been switched into another regular room instead and then the person I had spoken to was gone and they didn't offer an explanation of what had happened. At this point we were too tired to continue to try to argue for something we didn't care much about after several days of asking for hot water so we gave up. We were in our honeymoon and it was very frustrating to be here. I wouldn't recommend this hotel to anyone, especially a couple. The spa prices are way too expensive and even with a discount they are not worth it. The food for breakfast is fine but nothing special. And be wary of rain here because there is no way to get from the rooms to the restaurant without getting wet.

Beds were very hard and uncomfortable. Breakfast food was sub par. Location was not great. If you like overlooking a mud river it offered that.
