137 Pillars House

I’ve dreamed of staying here for years and it lived up to the hype. The room was fantastic and grounds beautiful. What I really loved was sitting on the terrace when it rained or to escape the heat and enjoying the ambiance. The entire staff is excellent and our butler Toto was so helpful with everything we needed. It’s within walking distance in the old city but at the end of the day get a grab car for a cheap quick ride back. Highly recommend 137 pillars as a way to unwind from a busy day exploring Chiang Mai. Also, Anne the GM is a gem!

This is a must-visit hotel. While Chiang Mai was underwhelming (given its grand reputation), I'd return just to visit this absolute gem. The "137 Pillars" house is immaculately refurbished - a showcase of its darkwood elegance and an antique collection, while draped in the latest lush fabrics. Flowers and art are at every turn of the tropical garden around the house. The long, cool pool is super satisfying after a hot day in town, though its deck is a bit cramped. The spacious rooms are all relatively new but do not disappoint - chic Asian style at its best - especially the grand bathrooms and large outdoor showers. Oh, also loved the museum under the house. And the manager was fabulously friendly and helpful.

Stayed at this hotel for 5 nights. Spent a wonderful and tranquil week there. Everything was perfect - the architecture, environment, amenities, team - and made this stay incredible and luxurious. I felt rested and pampered throughout. The balcony where I spent a lot of time in was generous and overlooked the hotel grounds, and the bathroom was large and bright thanks to the indoor/outdoor feature. While the architecture was classic and timeless the amenities were modern. Best of all is the staff, the team at this hotel is professional, hospitable and take so much pride in their work. From Up at breakfast service who remembered the little things like our preferences for coffee, to Tuck who’s suggestions for activities were spot on, and Bow who was on point, always accommodating for dinner service. The team was what made the stay even more memorable and personal. Will definitely visit and stay again. Highly recommended.

It was an absolute spectacular and wonderful stay! We were upgraded to one of the best room on the day before our arrival. Breakfast was nicely served every morning, they built this cold room for fruits and salad, bread, cold cuts and drinks which is a very clever idea. The mosquito control was excellent, butler service was perfect. It feels like a home away from home, we will definitely come back to stay longer and more often ❤️

Couldn’t fault the suites though it’s definitely not Four Seasons(we were told they consider Four Seasons their competition as we stayed there last time). But what we really appreciated were the staff…especially those at the restaurants and the pool. Each and every one of them went out of their way to remember what we liked, how we liked it and went the extra mile. They anticipated our needs which was beautiful. We were disappointed with our butler, who had sent a fancy email before we arrived but neither showed us to our room nor said good bye….he replied to our few messages on WhatsApp but nothing beyond it. The GM came over to meet us on two days…was a good conversationalist and we liked her enthusiasm and passion. Overall we had a great stay and we are glad we chilled at the hotel. It was a much needed break for us.
