Retreating In Thailand

In the mountains of northern Thailand, Chiang Mai’s Tamarind Village can be a welcome retreat to travelers.

The hotel’s 42 rooms and three suites are centred around a series of garden courtyards.

The interior decor reflects the ethnic diversity of northern Thailand with fabrics and patterns from the region’s hill tribes.

Called an “oasis of tranquility”, the hotel is named after a 200-year-old Tamarind tree that shades the property in the courtyard.

The hotel’s restaurant, Ruen Tamarind, features a classic Thai menu and northern Thai favorites in a poolside setting.

Tamarind Village’s Village Spa offers a range of relaxing and therapeutic treatments.

Currently, the hotel is featuring The Early Bird Offer, valid until December 20, 2010, based on a minimum two-night stay.
