Stayed in a Deluxe Studio room for three nights in March. The room was surprisingly large with entry area/bathroom, separate toilet, huge shower room and a bedroom big enough for a writing desk and couch as well as large bed. Outside of our bedroom was a small courtyard with table and swing chair. We were just behind the beautiful pool... More

The location of the hotel on the River is good, and the infinity pool overlooking the river is ideal for relaxing. While we were there few people used the pool, adding to the tranquility. The staff generally were friendly and helpful, and it was good to see the Manager at breakfast with the guests and around the hotel from time... More

We stayed 2 nights in the Legend on our way to Laos and loved the location. The room was very comfortable with a King size bed. Breakfast with riverview was quite good with very friendly staff. Only complaints we have is that you have to pay for the internet and the shuttlebus to and from the night market. And no... More

We were quoted THB4300/night when my wife enquired at reception - I was standing right behind her and it was obvious we were together. After long walk to go see the room (nice enough, with a jacuzzi, and overlooking the Ping River) our guide made a telephone call and then announced the price was actually THB7500/night because, it transpired, I...

Dear Guest, We thank for commenting on our Resort facility and service. We are very sorry for the unfortunate situation you have witnessed and understand your disappointment. However reading it and having worked in this trade in the Kingdom for over two decades it sounds to me like a typical “Thai Thai  Farang (Western)” misunderstanding. In order to clarify... More

We arrived yesterday 25th March 2012 at The Legend Chiang Rai with great expectations. The riverside location is stunning and beautiful. We have a pool villa which is very nice with a big room, nice plunge pool/spa, garden and river view. However, the welcome at the hotel was not so good. Staff lack motivation and do not seem pleased to... More

In addition you where unhappy for paying for the Internet connection... More

Stayed for 2 nights in March and could not have been more pleased with beautiful setting of hotel. Grounds are gorgeous and we enjoyed the pool each day. Massage by the river was also nice. Here are my complaints though: no free wifi and staff was just not up to par with class of hotel. We found it hard to... More

Very pretty hotel with spacious rooms and a beautiful garden on the river for cocktails and relaxing. We did not stay long enough to take advantage of the pool, but it looked lovely as well! More

We arrived by boat at their landing stage and felt very special. We were warmly greeted at reception and efficiently checked in and given an upgrade to a semi-detached deluxe room/villa. The gardens are beautiful and the river view is delightful. The room was very spacous and the bathroom (separate WC) interestingly fitted out - the jacuzzi bath was very... More

This hotel is a little away from the town as it is over looking the river. It has a lovely Thai decor, nice pool and grounds. Because it is near the river, mosquitoes are a bit of an issue, but the staff spray the rooms. Rooms were a little odd with no place to sit comfortably. There was a chaise,... More
