In the heart of historic Chiang Mai (the 13th-century capital of the Lanna kingdom), this is a magical little boutique property built in the traditional Lanna-style. It's brilliantly located within walking distance of ancient temples and other landmarks and quaint shopping streets, while Chiang Maiโ€™s famous Sunday Walking Street takes place right in front of the hotelโ€™s entrance.

Oozing authentic local charm and heritage, the property is beautifully laid out around a series of flower-filled garden courtyards. Rooms and suites contrast contemporary elements including polished concrete floors and white linen with boldly patterned hill tribe fabrics. Thereโ€™s a cosy cafรฉ-style restaurant with dishes passed down through the generations and a spa using herbal preparations drawn from the Lanna heritage of natural healing.

Half- and full-day excursions include market trips, visits to artisan studios and local villages, and forays into national parks, while activities on offer include jungle walks, rock climbing and rafting. The hotel also hosts its own program of daily cultural activities showcasing northern Thai crafts traditions.

Itโ€™s a location totally in keeping with the hotelโ€™s emphasis on living in balance with nature and the local community. Suites โ€“ all with terraces and river views, and some with their own pool โ€“ come with beautifully curated one-off artefacts, accessories and furnishings sourced from local artisans, including handwoven textiles and wood carvings.

But thereโ€™s more to Raya Heritage than hiding yourself away, tempting though that is. Half- and full-day excursions to temples, markets, villages and national parks are on offer, as are the likes of ethical elephant experiences, jungle walks, rock climbing and rafting. You also benefit from a complimentary shuttle throughout the day to Chiang Maiโ€™s old town with its ancient temples and fabulous crafts boutiques.

Kick back, relax, and soak up the sun on the magnificent Emerald Bay, which is said to be one of the finest beaches in the world, or visit the award-winning four-acre Spa Village. If adventure is more your thing then take a cruise on a private yacht or a jungle trek through the ancient rainforest.
