to get started.

Being on the river, great pool, nice lounges, great place to enjoy the cool afternoon breezes. Beds and pillows super comfortable. Great location near both Khosan Road, river transport and old Bangkok attractions. We had a good Thai meal right on the river at their restaurant.

Fred, Australia

Nice pool right on the river with a good bar. Right near river taxis.

Barbara, United States of America

The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The morning breakfast buffet was perfect to start a big tourist day. And the location by the river with direct ferry access to get to other locations in Bangkok was definitely a bonus as well.

Supercalifragolisticxpal, United States of America

The bed and pillows were extremely comfortable, the pool is amazing. The staff go above and beyond. We only booked one night but had a very late flight the next night, so they not only let us leave our luggage, but also told us that we could come back later to swim and take a shower before our flight. It was perfect.

Eva, United States of America

Everything exceeded our expectations from the friendly staff to the outstanding rooms and riverside pool.

American, United States of America

Friendly helpful staff, great river view and cold drinking water in the foyer, within walking distance from The Grand Palace and Khoasan Road

Hester, South Africa

Great location!!! Really relaxing atmosphere Wonderful attentive staff

Willard, United States of America

Cold rooms, service was very friendly and prompt, well kept property, easy to access different parts of the city with quick taxis from the front door. Make sure to get the small map with a Thai instructions for taxi drivers when you are returning back to the hotel.

Juan, United States of America

Staff is super sweet and helpful. They were able to rent a limousine for us for a very early flight to DMK. Place was nice and very close to an area that’s filled with street food, restaurants, etc. very nice. Has a safe too!

The slippers were not great, that's the only thing I can think of!
Everything, staff were amazing and could not do enough. Anything you needed they were happy to help with, very polite. The masseus gave both me and my girlfriend the best massage I have ever had and clicked my back right back into shape. I cannot recommend highly enough.

Some of the staff are a little rude when they are under pressure because of large groups! If you don’t sign your bill they make a big deal out of it and make you feel like a criminal! I am staying in the hotel, you know what room I am in! CHILL OUT! Only negative!
The food is amazing and a wide variety! Our room was lovely and clean! Location is great! We stay here every year for Songkran! It’s great!

Nothing. Next time I'll try the river-side rooms.
Fourth time at the Riva Surya, and fourth time as pleasant. It's a modern though very thai and cosy hotel, of human size. Just before boarding from Jakarta to Bangkok, I managed to ask the hotel, through the booking smartphone app, to pick me at the BKK airport, and they replied immediately, everything was smooth. Now the hotel even provides a free cellphone to carry with you in the city. Will come back next time.

A bit expensive for us, but it was very good value for money.
The location on the river was lovely. And so were the staff. We have stayed in the area before as backpackers, but are a bit older now, and wanted some comfort. We weren't expecting quite how stylish it was. The staff were lovely and fun, and relaxed and professional, which is hard balance to pull off. And they did it superbly! I wish I could afford to stay there more!
