Chiang Mai’s new riverside resort is truly stunning

After last month’s launch of X2 Vibe Pattaya SeaPhere, boutique hotel chain X2 has just unveiled something special in Chiang Mai.

Situated right on the bank of the Ping River, X2 Chiang Mai Riverside Resort takes inspiration from Wat U-Mong, Chiang Mai’s Lanna-style temple known for its maze-like tunnels. 

Red brick walls and carved pathways blend with modern design elements and facilities like a rooftop gym, pool and bar with views of Doi Suthep and the vibrant city of Chiang Mai.

The five-story building’s 30 rooms come in four types: Tamarind Suite ($288/night), View Riverfront ($350/night), Grand Suite River ($520/night) and Pool Suite River View ($885/night).

The hotel’s riverside location places it a seven-minute rot daeng (Chiang Mai transportation truck) ride from the old city.
