The Empress Chiang Mai
About this venue
The Empress Chiang Mai sits at the heart of Thailand's cultural capital, placing corporate groups within easy reach of the Night Market, the city's Old Town temples, and both the international airport and train station. The high-rise tower offers 375 guest rooms, making it one of the most self-contained options in northern Thailand for groups that want to sleep, meet, and dine all under one roof.
For event planners, the scale matters. With a maximum capacity of 750 delegates, The Empress can accommodate everything from intimate leadership retreats to large-scale conferences and gala dinners. Multiple meeting and banqueting spaces can be configured to suit plenary sessions, breakout workshops, or cocktail receptions, giving planners the flexibility to design a full-day or multi-day agenda without moving delegates off-site.
Service standards consistently punch above the hotel's 4-star classification, and the team has experience handling the precise logistics that corporate groups demand, from AV coordination to group dining. Chiang Mai itself adds real value as a destination: the city's blend of rich culture, acclaimed cuisine, and cooler highland climate makes it a genuinely motivating backdrop for any offsite or incentive programme.
