BW Premier Golden Pine Resort & Spa, Muang
Overall it was a good experience. The hotel is far from Ching Rai and is isolated so you have to stay at the hotel or take expensive taxis/tours.
Pros
Rooms were nice, comportable, clean. Aircon, nice bathrooms, comfortble beds, in room safe, free drinking water, two patios, quiet. Nice Thai style.
The grounds were very nice, lots of flowers and green, property well maintained and very beautiful.Lots of fountains, bridges, fruit trees.
Staff was good, minimal english but enogh to get by. They were friendly, helpful, good service.
Lots of things to do at the hotel - restaraunt with good live music at night, a nice fill service spa (but expensive), nice big pool, cooking classes and sightseeing tours (also expensive).
Cons
Both the breakfast and evening buffets were limited, western food only and monotonous. It would be good to add some Thai food to the offering or some variety.
The staff was helpful but not very knowledgeable about local sightseeing.
Food service at the fool was difficult. I had to go into the restaraunt to ask. The nice pool bar was never staffed.
The jacuzzi was broken.
Overall, a nice Thai experince in a comfortable, relaxed, beautiful setting with good service and a lot of amenities.

Very fast and efficient. I booked it and had confirmation within a day. It was accurate and no surprises.

Golden Pine Resort, Muang
wonderful lush place, unexpected within 17 km into nowhere from Chiang Rai. Perfect and very comfortable, spacious bungalows, all very new. never seen more beautiful bathrooms!! Service is a bit difficult, as personnel do not speak much english. Too many netherlands bus groups checking in this hotel, transforms the beautiful remote atmosphere to a drive through hotel with evening buffet (although food is lovely!)

again, very professional
