I had a nice stay at Sala Lanna Chiang Mai with friendly staff and a beautiful riverside view. The rooftop bar provided a lovely sunset view, though it could use some more attentive service. The location is great, close to local shops and the Night Bazaar, but I found some areas around the hotel a bit hazardous to walk due to lack of sidewalks.
