We stayed at the Hollandra Monti for two nights in early June before we were off to the Elephant Nature Park. The staff was so friendly and accommodating, when we walked up he knew exactly who we were and showed us our rooms, after cleaning up after our 27 hour travel time we went down for dinner in a wonderful outdoor area that you could eat, lounge, read, watch the river, day dream, chat with other travelers etc. The rooms were basic, clean with air conditioning. The location of the Hollandra Monti is ideal, just outside of old town so it is quieter and seems like it is farther away than it really is. We walked to old city in about 10-15 mins which was a nice way to really get a feel of the city. I would definitely stay at the Hollandra again and again and I highly recommend it. We basically ate at their quaint little restaurant the whole time we were in Chian Mai it was that good!
