Surpassed my expectations, great location, breakfast, rooms, v comfortable beds and bedding

Pros: Beautiful boutique hotel perfectly located for exploring the main temples along the river in Bangkok. The hotel is only a few minutes walk to the hop on hop off tourist boats. The river is the best way to explore as traffic in Bangkok is so congested. The pool and dining terrace was beautiful and such a welcome escape from the heat and bustling city. All of the staff were amazing, so polite, helpful and welcoming- in particular Bee who was very friendly and helpful.

Cons: My only slight criticism is that the lunch and dinner menu offered very little for vegetarians. It’s ok for pescatarians as there are shellfish options. Overall the menu was great but definitely aimed at meat lovers.

Lovely place to relax and be looked after.

Pros: Very comfortable large clean rooms. Very pleasant staff who worked hard to ensure we had everything we wanted. Lovely pool to cool off after a day of sightseeing. Lots of choice for food and drinks.

Cons: It wasn’t particularly central although it is very close to a pier for the hop on - hop off very. It’s not easy to get anywhere quickly in a taxi as it is so busy.

Fabulous

Pros: Fabulous location . Walking distance to palace and Khaosan Rd. Also on the river for the hop on hop off boat ( I recommend taking an early one as they get very busy . Fun watching the party boats in the evening. We had a lovely room , upgraded to one with larger balcony over the river so I was very happy . Huge bed . All beds on our trip have been huge 😊. Lovely pool that gets the sun part of the day if not all the time. Very courteous staff especially on reception.

Cons: I think there were a few occasions where restaurant staff weren’t as responsive as you’d expect . Laundry trolleys left outside the lift most days didn’t reflect well on what I think the hotel was aiming for in its level service .

Pros: Beautiful hotel in a spectacular riverside position. Staff were efficient.

Cons: We were on the first floor and it wasn’t nice to come out of the lift every day to piles of laundry. Also - tea / coffee wasn’t filled consistently. Not enough sunbeds for guests.
