PANVIMAN CHIANG MAI SPA RESORT

My husband and I booked Panviman for 2 nights as a treat during our 1 week visit to Chiang Mai. The hotel is located 1 hr from Chiang Mai city and a taxi to the hotel is approx 1000 baht. The rooms are very well priced for such an amazing resort. We booked a deluxe valley room and checked in without fuss. Unfortunately my husband was sick with fever for our entire stay so we didn't venture out of the hotel at all. The hotel is undergoing renovations and construction of additional rooms so there was a quite a bit of noise during the day near the deluxe valley rooms. Normally we wouldn't have minded this as we would have been out of the room during the day but since my husband was unwell he was trying to rest. We asked the front desk if there was a quieter room they could shift us to so that he could sleep. The manager (Mr Juntasing) called back a few minutes later to advise us we could move to a jacuzzi villa instead! They arrived promptly and moved us and all our bags to the new room. The jacuzzi villa was AMAZING- large, spacious with a beautiful jacuzzi overlooking the forest. It was so serene- my husband got lots of sleep whilst I got to enjoy the jacuzzi. The food was also amazing. We are vegetarians and at breakfast they made vegetarian noodles especially for us. Apart from that they had all the usual- eggs, pancakes, waffles, cereals and thai dishes too. The staff at the restaurant were very attentive. Lots of vegetarian options for dinner too. The staff at the resort were lovely, always smiling and very friendly. It's a wonderful resort- definitely a luxury feel for a fantastic price. Once the renovations are complete, it will be even more amazing. We definitely hope to return one day!

Me and my partner booked this hotel for 4 nights and we did the most stupid mistake - we booked it to a previous month and we only realized it upon arriving - the kind owner of the hotel gave us a night for free and made us feel better about starting our vacation. Besides this matter - the location is beautiful , every small deatile of the hotel is well thought of ,breakfast pretty basic for the healthy eater like me - would love some more fruits with my granola but everyone can find something to eat especially if you fancy eggs in the morning and the views are incredible - you can rent a motorbike from the hotel didn't have any problem with it and just go explore, there's a waterfall really near and tons of other attractions like elephant camps etc ,rafting , Tigers etc.. We took a private driver we met for one day to do all the things we wanted but you can easily do it on your own aswell , plus they have a free shuttle to chaing mai night bazar so it's very convenient to be away from the hustle but still have the option to visit chaing mai city. Totally worth it !

It was pouring down on the day we arrived at Panviman, but the staff were lovely and collected us from the car with a golf buggy and umbrellas. Although it was raining the surroundings were beautiful and peaceful up in the mountains. The restaurant was excellent and not overpriced, which was a surprise at such a great resort. You get to dine either on the verandah or in an air-conditioned dining room - on the night we were there the verandah was quite full, so we went into the dining room and had it all to ourselves for the rest of the night. Service was also excellent. The next morning we were able to enjoy a dip in the pool when the weather cleared up. The pool is certainly one to try out, with three tiers and waterfalls and perched on the top of the mountains. The view from the pool to the resort was also pretty spectacular. Overall this was a great resort, great experience, and I will definitely come back next time.

This place is a complete escape from the city. They have plenty of things to do at the resort as well as excursions just down the hill. We took our time and walked up and down the mountain to see all of the views. They do have shuttles into the city twice a day that are free so you don't have to spend money on a taxi. Extremely convenient and I would recommend to anyone!

This place has plenty of rewards, rightfully so. Tucked away some miles outside of Chiang Mai, this place is the definition of a weekend get away. Lofty and open architecture with gorgeous views over the property and the valley. Lovely houses with two stories, two bed and bath rooms as well as a hot tub. Huge pool and Spa area.
