Wtf 6000 per day?? This is cm mate!! It cheap
I'm sure you will find something excellent for half that amount.
and with the other half you could do six ST a day

My only real curiosity is who are you planning to impress??

Pictures please

Here's a good post from 2007, Chiang Mai Hotel Links, Koykaeng posts them and another good one: Hotel in Chiang Mai?

thanks guys but I need a great nice 4 or 5 star hotel--not a ladyboy related trip. how is the Mandarin Oriental? any other suggestions?

[rxpharm]

You won't find many BMs who use 5 star hotels in Chiang Mai. Try Agoda, and have it arrange the hotels according to star rating.

For upscale, The Chedi. It's gorgeous. Out of my price range.
I stayed at D2 and liked it. Small rooms but nice hotel.
Will stay someplace simpler and less expensive next time.

Have a look at the Shangri-La Hotel;

It's virtually brand new and you can't beat the location, assuming you want to be right near the night market & restaurants, etc.

I usually stay at one of the cheaper places within metres of this hotel.
