After being in Chiang Mai for years, many in our organization agree that our time at the Suan Bua was impressive! We've all been to dozens of meetings, buffets, and overnight lodging situations, and probably have never had such an overall good value/experience than at the Suan Bua. Khun (Mr.) Pracha has been an excellent liaison. He and his staff... More

This place has it all! Beautiful gardens, happy staff, excellent food, at a fantastic price! We were so amazed at the generosity of the manager who lowered our costs even after we had been there for a week. He also went out of his way to be accommodating to our every need. At the end he and his staff setup... More

This has been the third time I have been to Suan Bua Hotel & Resort, attending conferences there. Each time the conference venue is there, I sigh: not again! When entering the resort, the first impression actually is positive. The large gardens are well planned and well maintained. Not so the rooms. Every room I have slept in had something... More

Great place for a conference where you can spend lots of time with your group. The place if fairly old. The reception desk is THE most unorganized desk I've ever seen. Not professional. We were put in the 3rd floor of an old building where the stairs were uneven. The room was decent and the bed good but after one... More

Suan Bua Hotel and Resort has found it's niche as a conference destination for large NGO's and other regional organizations. I've attended a number of conferences here and recently stayed at Suan Bua with a large women's gathering. The price was right- 2000 baht per person for the entire weekend including three meeting rooms, breakfast both days, plus lunch and... More

We have been to this hotel twice and the last time early 2012 a lot of people, including myself, got food poisoning. Out of 200 people I believe 25% to 30% got food poisoning or a stomach bug.

Suan Bua is very relaxing. It's about a 45 minute drive from Chiang Mai city, so don't come here if you want to spend a lot of time around the town. If you're looking for a chance to get away from it all though, the Suan Bua is a great place to consider.

This hotel is about 30mins drive up a winding mountain road from Chiang Mai. It's in a lovely quiet area, with just a little local shop across the road, and a lovely nice restaurant across the road and up the hill. The hotel grounds are absolutely beautiful - gardens, ponds, bridges, gazebos etc. I didn't get to use the pool... More

The Suan Bua is up in the mountains about 30-45 minutes from Chiang Mai city. So, don't come here if you want to spend your evenings in the Night Market area. But, if you're looking for a peaceful getaway, this is a great place to go! The grounds are quite beautiful. The hotel rooms are quite good, though my wife... More
