Location

SriTara is an elegant retreat offering all the pleasures of hotel living in the heart of a historical city. The hotel is idyllically located on the Mae Ping River bank, just 5 minutes drive from the famous “Night Bazaar” and 5 Kilometers from Chiang Mai International Airport.

Accommodation
Set along the tranquil Mae Ping River bank in central Chiang Mai, SriTara is a lavish boutique hotel offering 22 Deluxe rooms, 2 Elephant Suites and 4 majestic White Elephant Suites. Minimalist in design, each of the hotels rooms has its own unique color scheme which stems from the four elements of early Buddhism – Earth (brown), Wind (white), Fire (orange) and Water (blue). The walls are brought to life with the help of large abstract paintings and pieces of art from up and coming Thai artists. All the accommodation at SriTara provides a living space reflecting a unique colonial style; the perfect blend of Thai teak wood and Thai craftsmanship reviving a legacy of distinctiveness. However, there is nothing vintage or antique about the amenities and service SriTara provides. Each room contains cozy lounge seating to laze on while viewing a DVD through the state of the art flat screen TV or while surfing the net via the wireless broadband internet connection. A large writing desk, shimmering brass fittings, tiled floors, teak wood furnishings and marble bathroom tops are just a few of the lavish design extras you will discover in each of the rooms.
