I had a lovely stay at Rainforest Chiangmai Hotel. the ambiance really creates a relaxing forest atmosphere. The staff members were incredibly helpful and friendly, making me feel welcomed right away. However, the Wi-Fi was painfully slow, and the breakfast could certainly use some more variety. especially for vegetarians.
