Everything. The view is spectacular (million dollar worth). The outdoor jacuzzi tube with the view of Wat Arun is breathtaking. One of the best hotels I have ever stayed.

Fantastic little hotel right across river from Wat Arun, near the Royal Palace and Wat Pho. Service was as wonderful as the views from rooftop bar and restaurant. Hotel has plenty of eating options all around and it is easy to get to other parts of city either on the river, or with metro station nesrby.

The view of wat Arun was so so so nice and room deco with jacuzzi is fantastic!

The location is top notch right on the river with stunning views on all sides of the rooftop restaurant! Walking distance to Wat Pho and many other sites in a charming neighborhood. Also right at the boat taxi peer! We had the fabulous Deluxe room with jacuzzi on balcony. It was heaven! Will be back for sure!

Amazing location/view - highly recommend if looking to stay by the main tourist sites (palace and temples). Friendly staff and great restaurant as well. Would definitely stay again.

I rarely write reviews more so because I'm probably lazy. But this place deserves 20 stars. I've traveling solo and got in late at night. The staff was fully prepared for my arrival kind as could be. They were super knowledge and accommodating. I felt safe. The room was incredible... and holy goodness, the view was breathtaking. I will be back to Bangkok and will 100% be staying here again!

Staffs accommodation to our needs was great. They helped us out with changing room to a bigger one. It’s walking distance to the palace and laying Buddha. And Arun across the river.

Arleni

Very accommodating, friendly, respectful, helpful, and polite staff. The room was small but very well designed, beautiful, and comfortable. The view was magnificent at all time of the day. I felt so privileged to sleep with that kind of view.

The glass between balconies was meant to be mirror glass but is easy to see through in some spots. The restaurant was nice but very expensive.
The spa suite was well worth the upgrade. Stunning views of the river and wat arun. The restaurant food was very nice. The outdoor rooftop restaurant also has views over the palace.

Everything was perfect
We have stayed in this hotel four times and will use it again. It’s my favourite place in Bangkok to stay, the location is amazing and to sit with a glass of wine on the rooftop Resturant has one of the best views in Bangkok. The views of the Grand palace and Wat Arun are beautiful and to watch the sunset behind Wat Arun is amazing. The rooms are perfect and have everything you need and the beds is so comfortable. The staff are so friendly and will do anything to help make your stay better. The location is next to the river and very close to all tourist spots.

Great staff and service. We were so well looked after. Even providing us with a detailed map card to give to taxi drivers showing where the hotel is located, so we didn't have to resort to sign language and broken English to try to explain to the taxi driver where we were staying. For the location, we found the room rates to be on the expensive side though.

My room was so small and a view of terrible dirty alley - I chose to upgrade but the room was same size and I only had partial view of river for more than $35 a night extra The bathroom area was also a bit of a disaster No room to hang or move around anything at all including nowhere to hang towels
The location and view on top floor were fabulous

“Good location, uncomfortable cramped room at high price not worth the price, would explore alternate”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Stayed 2 nights
1- Air conditioning unit malfunctioned: noisy and not able to modify temperature. Manager attempted to "fix" the unit. without success. The noise of the unit so loud it interfered with sleep. The roon temp was quite uncomfortable. 2- The toilet facilities were actually part of the room. The sink vanity occupied 1/3 of the room, there was no mirror over the sink for shaving. The Toilet and Shower did not have a separate area, only a sliding door to isolate from the room. No privacy possible. 3- The inside lighting was difficult to manage. No dimmers and no lights alongside the bed for reading. 4- The outside deck was quite large. More surface in the actual room would have been better. 5- Room rate was too inflated, compared to other similar hotels in Thailand. Breakfast was not included.
specatacular view. Friendly staff. The outside deck was comfortable and spacious.
