raya heritage | If you have to choose one hotel in Chiang Mai
raya heritage is part of the Rachamankha Hotel Group, located on the banks of the Ping River in the northern part of Chiang Mai, with a small scale, hidden in the unassuming woods by the roadside.
The overall design is based on Lanna culture, but it basically only features three colors: blue, white, and natural wood, creating a clean and transparent atmosphere. In every corner, you can capture the soft beauty of craftsmanship, rustic furniture, the interplay of light and shadows, and the gaps between green plants.
Just a random snap is very beautiful.
Tropical plant enthusiasts will enjoy a walk on the hotel's paths, as it is truly a pleasure. The hotel has labeled each plant with its 'Thai/English' name, which greatly satisfied my curiosity.
Staying at raya is not very convenient for hailing a taxi, but you can book a free shuttle to the 'Rachamankha Country Hotel' in the old city, as the two are sister properties.

Raya heritage hotel, a cultural heritage hotel
Located upstream of Chiang Mai's main waterway, the Ping River, it is built to welcome the 'river' without disturbing and coexisting with the ecology, creating 33 rooms with 3 different types of rooms, each with its own unique design. With terracotta bricks underfoot, hardwood columns in hand, and various woven handicraft furniture such as chair cushions and window screens, the interplay of white and off-white tones makes the traveler feel like entering a history museum. The design extends to craftsmanship, using local traditional craft architecture, and decorated with local traditional crafts, meticulously and cleverly integrating local characteristic elements into its modern design, making people feel peaceful and relaxed with the modern ecological aesthetics of the three-story high building
Welcome Drink, the fragrant lotus root tea, will take us on a hotel tour, and through a brief tour, guests can better understand the meaning the hotel wants to convey. Raya Heritage has three different dining venues, KHU KHAO RESTAURANT, LAAN CHA TEA TERRACE, and BAAN TA LOUNGE & LAWN, where you can taste delicious food in the restaurant, enjoy tea time on the TEA TERRACE, or have a little drink by the river at the LOUNGE in the evening. No matter which option, the atmosphere here always allows one to relax both body and mind
Room type: First floor pool suite
Cost: About 10,000 baht per night
It is not very convenient to travel, the hotel has a shuttle bus to the old city
Basic travel relies on grab

Chiang Mai Hotel
💐This hidden gem of a hotel is really niche, but it's so chic that I can't help but recommend it to everyone! If you want to truly immerse yourself in a vacation when traveling to Chiang Mai, choosing this one is absolutely right! Raya Heritage is simply an art resort hotel where nature and art are combined to perfection~
😜Every corner of the hotel is very design-conscious, with a low-key luxury temperament, and natural elements are perfectly embodied here. Handmade wooden and rattan products made of natural materials can be seen everywhere, and every corner can be a good place for posing! The most beautiful thing is to sit on the hotel balcony, overlooking the beautiful mountain and forest scenery, it feels like vacationing in Bali!
💃The hotel is 6 kilometers away from both Chang Puak Market and Kad Suan Kaew Shopping Centre, and 9 kilometers away from the nearest airport, Chiang Mai International Airport, so it is more convenient to stay by car~

Raya Heritage, a top-notch retro hotel hidden in the forest in Chiang Mai.
Hotel name: Raya Heritage
🌟Highlight features:
Southeast Asia's only cultural heritage hotel designed in traditional Lanna style.
Occupying 6850 square meters, there are only 33 guest rooms.
Low-key to almost "zero promotion", but need to book the ultimate service experience one month in advance.
You can taste all of Chiang Mai without leaving your home.

I'm really good at booking hotels!!! I love this secluded hotel in Chiang Mai so much.
I'm really good at booking hotels, aren't I?!
I love this secluded hotel in Chiang Mai so much, I just want to stay here forever after arriving. It feels perfect for spiritual cultivation and content creation.
Already entered my top 3 favorite hotels in the world (the other two are Nakaluxury in Phuket and Finest in Cancun). The entire hotel is very elegant, every flower, plant, and tree, every design is very thoughtful, there are small designs everywhere, it's so beautiful, even the minibar has nine types of tea.
Breakfast is really good, ordered a la carte, I think it's better than the one at Bangkok's Kempinski Hotel, and the acai bowl beats any brunch place in Shanghai.
btw, another small discovery today: even without a coffee machine, there are hand-brewing equipment and coffee powder! It's the first time I've seen such a primitive hotel. Although there is no hand-brewing pot and electronic scale, you can still enjoy the aroma of coffee throughout the room, haha.
The hotel is very, very quiet, with only 33 rooms in total

Thai divine hotel/Raya Heritage (Chiang Mai)
Today, let me introduce to you a secluded hotel in Chiang Mai that I absolutely love - the Raya Heritage Hotel. Designed by Bangkok architect Boon, it inherits the ancient Lanna culture of the local area and can be said to be an elegant cultural and artistic heritage that Chiang Mai has dedicated to the world.
Here is really a place where you want to stay forever after coming here every time, and the existence like a fairyland is very suitable for cultivating immortality and inspiration creation.
Hotel environment:
The main body of the hotel is a white exterior, but the entire hotel is surrounded by green plants, and everywhere is a beautiful fairyland, which is also suitable for internet celebrities to take photos. Everywhere you take a photo is a beautiful picture 😄. It's not bragging, those who have been here know that the environment here is unique👍, giving a sense of fashion and closeness to nature. This hotel is also very, very quiet, with only 33 rooms in total. Living here gives a sense of seclusion away from the hustle and bustle and worldly affairs, with greenery outside the window and only the sound of insects and birds, especially quiet, you can just sit and relax haha.
Specialty cuisine:
Having breakfast surrounded by beautiful scenery is very special, and there is a natural feeling that makes people feel comfortable. At that moment, I exclaimed: This is a breakfast bathed in sunlight!
Here, all three meals can be solved in the hotel restaurant, and the meals for each meal are different. The dinner is open until 23:00, which satisfies some people who need to work late.
I have to talk about the breakfast here: it's also very rich. Personally, I think the breakfast here is better than the one at the Bangkok Kempinski. There's something special here, even though there's no coffee machine, even though it's hand-brewed equipment and coffee powder, even though there's no hand-brewed pot and electronic scale, you can still enjoy the aroma of coffee throughout the house. This is the first time I've seen such a primitive hotel, so special~
In addition, there are also afternoon tea, bars, gyms, and spa centers... Here, I want to give a special shout-out to the LaYa Heritage Hotel. Although it's not big, it has everything you need! 👍

Chiang Mai | A hotel so beautiful that I hesitate to share it
Hotel location: Raya Heritage Hotel
Three years later, the first destination for going abroad is Chiang Mai.
Stayed at all the hotels on the previous list.
From boutique hotels to Four Seasons in Chiang Mai.
And my favorite, and the one I'm most reluctant to share, is Raya.
I wanted to stay at Raya when it first opened, but for various reasons, I didn't get the chance.
Didn't expect there to be no difference between maintaining and newly opened hotels after three years.
Very clean, very new, very beautiful.
·
The hotel is located about six or seven kilometers around the old city of Chiang Mai.
Taking a taxi is basically around 20 RMB.
The hotel has only 33 rooms.
Each room has a large area, especially the super large terrace.
The layout of the room is also quite comfortable, and various details deeply impress me.
The abundant use of cotton, linen and rattan makes the entire space exceptionally gentle.
·
The public areas and restaurants of the hotel are designed very beautifully.
Even in full occupancy, there are not too many guests to be seen.
The most central position in the lobby is given to a big tree.
Sit here and enjoy the beauty of this big tree in peace.
·
It's worth mentioning the hotel's breakfast.
All single dishes, the presentation and flavors are simply stunning!
No wonder my friend who stayed there before strongly recommended me to wake up early and have breakfast.
Each dish blends flavors just right.
The meals at the restaurant are also delicious during other times, and the prices are very reasonable.
So we have gradually tasted all the dishes.
·
In terms of service, it is touching and heartfelt.
Not only smile service
Brought back the items we left at the previous hotel.
Housekeeping is done meticulously for the extended stay.
·
Don't want to write anymore, because I don't want this hotel to become too popular.
Although Raya is already very popular
But I still can't bear to let it become a hotel where rooms are hard to come by.
In the price range of over 2000, Raya is really impressive.
Thank you for the wonderful two nights spent here.

Chiang Mai's new hotel, full of luxury | Raya Heritage
✨Three years after going abroad, the first hotel I chose was Raya Heritage in Chiang Mai, which is a dreamland in itself, with light dancing in the air. Although the word "healing" has been overused, when a white-clad server greets you with a pure Thai smile, a fragrant bouquet of gardenias, the evening light painting the white buildings of the hotel and spilling onto the surface of the Ping River, the sunlight shining through the ancient trees in the atrium, a cup of ginger tea and a lemongrass-scented towel, Southeast Asia in my memory is instantly awakened... At that moment, all the troubles really disappeared.
✨ The charming white architecture of the hotel is laid out along the Ping River. The architect Boonlert and designer Dao are both active practitioners of Asian minimalism, using a large number of Northern Thai Lanna architectural elements such as gable roofs, retro hardwood columns, and beams. The 9-meter-high open-air hotel lobby presents a full-width screen from trees to rivers, with sunlight passing through the hall and light and shadow changing with the time, integrating the agility of nature into the architectural space, creating a minimalist and restrained Thai contemporary architectural aesthetic.
✨The hotel works closely with local craftsmen such as woodcarvers, weavers, and potters to design unique handmade furniture and decorations for the hotel. Coupled with ancient objects collected from indigenous tribes, every corner of the hotel is a natural and retro beauty.
✨ 38 sets of guest rooms are located in 11 three-story buildings (the first floor suite comes with a swimming pool), with two main color schemes of white and indigo blue. Looking out from the terrace of my guest room, there are blooming Chinese redbud flowers, sitting here daydreaming is extremely comfortable.
✨ The hotel is not too far or too close to Chiang Mai's old city, maintaining a low-key and peaceful atmosphere. Although the hotel occasionally has shuttle buses to and from the old city, I am more fascinated by staying in the hotel. The outdoor pool by the Ping River occasionally has yellow petals floating in the water; the organic restaurant surrounded by tall banana trees has first-class Thai flavors in both taste and presentation, and you can even taste Laotian and Yunnan flavors; the "bamboo"-themed bar uses a dark style to fight against the Southeast Asian sunshine, but is full of coolness and tranquility; the tea room on the second floor not only has a river view, but also allows you to enjoy a Thai-style afternoon tea here.
✨ As a member of The Leading Hotels of the World, Raya Heritage lives up to expectations. The Leading Hotels of the World was founded in 1928 by influential European hotel owners, and its hotels are mostly independent and unique, ranging from grand palaces, urban resorts, ancient castles, luxury tented camps in wildlife reserves, tropical paradises to mysterious island getaways, with over 400 member hotels worldwide. The door to the world has already opened, let's restart our journey and embark on a quest together. May all the good things come as promised!
