Noticed some previous negative posts and inquired about them at check-in. The General Manager, Mr. Samarn Tipibang answered my questions in a friendly and professional manner. He also assured me that he was not the owner but the proprietor for the real owners, The Royal Thai Army. I felt 100% secure at that point and throughout my visit. Breakfast was excellent every morning and the hostess, Mae, is beautiful and refreshingly cheerful at my early morning meals. Room service was inexpensive and delicious. The rooms feature a full sliding glass door to a nice sized terrace. The bath is wrapped by a shelf which can be very handy. The hotel itself faces the mountains of Chiang Mai and the Green Lake. The location is remote but easily accessible via a 10 minute, 100-300baht cab or tuk-tuk to the center of town. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. P.S. My credit card statement for this hotel appears as "Royal Thai Army's Lanna". Mr. Tipibang was telling the truth.
