Rasa Thailand

River view is spectacular! The swimming pool is comfortable. The staff are excellent

Jeff United States of America

The staff is very friendly and welcome us with a good manner. The location of the hotel is quite comfortable and nicely surrounded by a number of nice restaurants as well as historic places. You can simply walk around and enjoy the city. We’ll come back

Nuttaphan Thailand

This is a nice little hotel that has an excellent and helpful staff. The bed is comfy and the pool is saltwater, which although a bit chilly this time of year, makes for an excellent swim. I didn't try the breakfast as it was at an extra charge, but the cappacinos that I had at the hotel restaurant were quite nice. The hotel is also located in a great spot, and while I wouldn't overpay for it, I would stay again if the price were right.

Graeme Canada

Luke United States of America

Appreciated that they used a glass bottles for the complementary water. I left behind an item and they are going to mail it to me very great customer service.

Debra United States of America

The staff were wonderfully helpful and the patio was a nice place to come back and relax. Since it is on the river you can walk down a little bit and get in the hop on hop off boat to tour the city. Right down the street from the hotel is Khaosan Road. This was our favorite road to stroll through, shop, stop and have a drink or good food....cool vibes in Bangkok on this street.

Cheryl United States of America

The property was amazing. The location is located in a great spot, right next to a ferry stop, walking distance to Khao San road and an easy Tuk Tuk ride to get anywhere else. The room was very comfortable, and staff was beyond nice and welcoming.
