With dimensions of 10.8 x 10.6 metres, it comfortably accommodates up to 70 guests in theatre-style seating, 56 for banquets, or 21 in a classic boardroom layout. Natural daylight filters through floor-to-ceiling windows, enhancing focus and ambiance. The room is fully equipped with built-in AV technology, including LCD projector, motorised screen, video conferencing facilities, microphones, and flip charts. Direct access to an adjoining deck allows for seamless breakout sessions or coffee breaks by the Mae Ping River, adding a refreshing touch to corporate agendas. The space is climate-controlled and features subtle Thai-modern design elements that foster both productivity and comfort.
Set against the atmospheric backdrop of the resort’s 100-year-old British consulate house, the Riverside Lawn provides an elegant, open-air event setting along the banks of the Mae Ping River. This lush, manicured lawn can host up to 120 guests for banquet-style dinners or standing receptions. It’s a favored location for gala dinners, welcome drinks, and cultural evenings, especially when illuminated at night under decorative lanterns. Full AV support can be arranged for presentations or entertainment, and tenting is available for all-weather functionality. The space allows for custom branding and event theming, making it ideal for product launches or networking receptions in a distinctive heritage environment.
Located within the former British consulate mansion, Service 1921 offers a unique venue that blends colonial opulence with contemporary sophistication. Inside, the restaurant’s private dining rooms and main seating area can be configured to host up to 100 guests for banquets or private dining experiences. Wood-panelled interiors, vintage décor, and historic artifacts create an immersive backdrop that’s perfect for senior executive dinners, client entertainment, or incentive events. Tailored menus, including Thai, Vietnamese, and Chinese cuisine, are curated by in-house chefs, and the venue offers semi-private and fully private zones, including the Spy Room—a secretive, themed space ideal for small VIP meetings or intimate gatherings.
Bubbles is Anantara Chiang Mai’s rooftop bar, offering panoramic views over the Mae Ping River and the iconic Iron Bridge. Designed for stylish, informal gatherings, it accommodates up to 80 guests for cocktail receptions or sunset networking events. The ambiance is chic yet relaxed, with modern lounge furnishings, ambient lighting, and a curated cocktail menu featuring Thai-inspired mixes. This open-air venue is equipped for background music and light AV requirements and is particularly suited to post-conference wind-downs, executive meet-and-greets, and incentive reward functions. The space can be partially covered for shade or light rain, and branding opportunities are available for exclusive hire.
An extension of the resort’s indoor meeting area, the Riverside Deck provides a calm, shaded terrace overlooking the water. It serves as a peaceful setting for coffee breaks, light lunches, or informal breakout discussions. Ideal for smaller groups of 10 to 30 people, this space can also be booked for private riverside dinners or welcome drinks. With proximity to the Function Room, it offers a smooth indoor-outdoor flow, allowing event organisers to enhance the attendee experience with fresh air and river breezes, all without straying far from core meeting activities.
