The Riverie delivers spectacular views from its enviable spot on the Kok River. It was recently renovated and is centred around a dazzling gold-on-white theme – a cool contrast against the river’s earthy tones. And because this spot on the riverbank is uncrowded, there’s plenty of space to breathe in the outstretched views. By the bright blue pool, you’re just a sun lounger’s space from the river’s edge and the rooftop Peak Wine & Grill has stunning vistas that brings you almost eye-level with watercolour mountains in the distance. The hotel’s just-off-centre riverside location means you can be tasting your way around Chiang Rai’s night markets and seeing intricate temples in next to no time. At the hotel, there’s an on-site minimart for everyday essentials if you prefer to stay put and brightly coloured distractions if you’re travelling with little ones including a small aqua play area and a soft play room. The hotel’s restaurants have wide glass panels so you’ll get river views whether you’re trying a spicy Thai curry at the main Blossom Restaurant or nibbling dim sum dumplings at China Garden. Marshmallow-soft bedding and brilliant white décor in the rooms and suites are treated to subtle Northern Thai influences like a lotus emblem over each bed. Family Suites come with a children’s bunk bed just on the other side of a sliding door from the main bedroom area. We love the Deluxe River rooms for the views that bring you closer to the serene, green backdrop, which are even closer from the balcony of the Riverie Suites.
The Legend Chiang Rai is nestled on the Mae Kok riverbank, away from the hum of civilisation in Chiang Rai just a mile away. Upon entering The Legend Chiang Rai, the first thing visitors notice is how rustic it feels. Decorated with local Lanna styling and teak wood that is found throughout northern Thailand, the simple beauty of the resort complements the breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding mountains. This is the ideal spot for a breath of fresh air and respite in between exploring Thailand’s lively northern cities. Slip into the resort’s infinity pool, which has stunning views of the Mae Kok River, for some downtime away from the clamour of cities. At Sala Rimnam, one of the hotel's two restaurants, you can listen to the distant ribbits of frogs as you dine on the riverside terrace, or take a seat by the open kitchen and watch as the chefs prepare your meal. If you want to explore what Chiang Rai has to offer, a ten-minute tuk-tuk ride takes you right into the city where splendid temples await. You’ll find it hard to believe that these grand structures are so close by on your return to the tranquillity of The Legend Chiang Rai. The rooms are simple, in keeping with the traditional aesthetic, with white bedding and views of the gardens or the river. For your own uninterrupted river view, opt for a Pool Villa.
