At the moment I am in Chiang Mai on a 3 day media trip with the TAT. They have brought us here to experience the Yi Peng Loy Krathong Festival.
We are staying at the Shewe Suite Resort on Charoen Muang Road in Chiang Mai. It is the kind of place that I wouldn’t be able to afford myself as it is very luxurious and exclusive. One night in this suite is 12,000 baht. I feel a bit lost here as it massive.
The four poster bed was really comfortable and I had a good nights sleep. This is my living room. While I’m typing this I am waiting for my breakfast to be delivered. As well as a bathroom there is also a changing room.
This is a shot of the living room looking towards the flatscreen TV which also has a DVD player which is a nice touch. Unlike some other resorts, this place has good working WiFi which is also free. Surprising how many hotels charge for this.
This is my private verandah. I have the double doors open at the moment and I’m enjoying Chiang Mai’s morning cool breeze. The furnishings are all from teak wood and the designs of the rooms are all very exquisite.
Although I normally cannot afford hotels such as this, I am grateful to the TAT for giving me an opportunity to at least experience how the other half live. It’s useful “research” for me as I have both hotel and guidebook websites for Thailand.
