Breakfast at Furama Chiang Mai receives mixed reviews with both commendations and criticisms. Many guests highlight the delicious and diverse nature of the offerings, praising the tasty and varied selection, especially the Asian dishes. Some even consider it one of the best they’ve had, appreciating the value at 150 baht per person and the perfect service provided.
However, the variety seems to cater predominantly to Asian palates, leaving some Western guests desiring more options. The quality and selection are occasionally described as low and limited and the coffee and tea have been noted as poor. Additionally, breakfast is packed away strictly at 10 O'clock, which can feel rushed for those still eating. Despite these points, a number of guests find the breakfast adequate and worth the price.
Rooms at Furama Chiang Mai are consistently praised for their impressive size and spaciousness with many guests highlighting that the large and open layout exceeded their expectations. Many found the rooms to be clean, comfortable and worth more than the price they paid, offering great value for money. The rooms come equipped with full amenities, including soft beds and bathtubs with some even featuring jacuzzis, which guests appreciated.
The hotel’s atmosphere is generally quiet and peaceful, complementing the spacious rooms to provide a relaxing stay. The authentic Thai-style design of the rooms adds a unique cultural charm and the majority of guests found the accommodations to be comfortable and inviting.
However, some guests noted that the decor and furniture in the rooms appear outdated and in need of maintenance. There were mentions of peeling wallpaper and broken fixtures that had not been repaired before renting the rooms out. A few guests also experienced mustiness, suggesting that some rooms might not have been used in a while. Despite these drawbacks, the overall feedback points to a generally positive experience, particularly due to the large room sizes and the tranquil environment of the hotel.

Positive feedback also highlights that the bed and room size are unbeatable. Additionally, some guests found the pillows, bed and blankets to be comfortable. However, several reviews mention issues with hard beds and uncomfortable mattresses with some noting that the beds felt old and had springs digging into their spines, contributing to a less than ideal sleeping experience. Overall, while comfort is noted by some, the quality and condition of the beds appear inconsistent.
Furama Chiang Mai presents a varied picture when it comes to cleanliness. Many guests have praised the hotel for its overall cleanliness, noting that the rooms are clean, spacious and well-maintained. The cleaning staff are frequently commended for their thorough work and good upkeep throughout the hotel. Some of the specific highlights include spotlessly clean rooms and excellent cleanliness overall. However, a few reviews draw attention to areas needing improvement. Certain parts of the hotel, particularly older sections, don't meet standard cleanliness levels and issues such as mold in the bathroom have been mentioned. The pool area also requires better maintenance as it was found to be non-operational during some stays. Despite these occasional lapses, the hotel's calm atmosphere and good service are often appreciated by guests.

The pool on the 18th floor also garners positive remarks for its quality. However, some guests have noted that only one of the two pools is often operational, as the pool on the 5th floor is frequently closed during the day.
Despite the scenic beauty and overall pleasant experience of the pools, there are a few areas that could benefit from attention. The pool area shows signs of wear with several damaged or missing tiles and an older floor surrounding the pool. Additionally, some parts of the pool area lack loungers and cleanliness has been an issue on occasion with mentions of the water being dirty.
Overall, the rooftop pool at Furama Chiang Mai provides an enjoyable escape with impressive views, though there is room for improvement in maintenance and amenities to enhance the experience further.
