This boutique property sits in a leafy residential and historic part of Chiang Mai, just a few minutes’ walk away from the Wat Gate Khar Rnam Temple. With a colonial history dating back to the late 1800s, stepping into 137 Pillars feels like stepping back in time, albeit a polished and chicly restored version. The dining options continue this theme, with elegantly classical interiors and refined cuisine that balances traditional recipes with a contemporary spin. From Thai and Lanna cuisines to farm-to-table gourmet dishes, the food is rivalled only by the lush garden views. A picturesque swimming pool, fitness centre and spa offer respite after time spent exploring Chiang Mai.
The 30 Suites are elegantly appointed, honouring their heritage with roll top baths, four poster beds and outdoor space complete with planters chairs. Their individual design makes this feel a world away from a more anonymous large hotel, while modern amenities such as espresso machines, Sealy Posturepedic Premier Ultra Plus mattresses, and Egyptian cotton bed linens add a supreme level of comfort.
