They have an amazing staff, the breakfast was delicious, the view from our room was breathtaking infront of Wat Arun, the room was spacious and elegant. Walking distance to the temples, many options for food and shopping nearby. We really enjoy our time in Arun Riverside, made our trip to Bangkok more memorable.

Great location with amazing river view and in walking distance to the temples. Most importantly you feel at home - the staff (shoutout to Anuwat!) is very nice and accommodating. Great roofdeck with river view (closes at 10pm to avoid noise for hotel guests). Very nice, relaxing place in this bustling city!

Staff was very friendly and helpful. Food in hotel was excellent. Can’t beat the view of Wat Arun from our room. Very convenient to the palace and temples. Visit in morning and back to hotel to escape the heat and then out again in late afternoon. Would definitely stay again.

What a dump!
Absolutely overpriced. At £120 a night id expect more. Firstly I booked and seconds later received an email from the hotel saying they’re would be construction noise all day, and sorry for the late notice but they “just found out”. Absolute rubbish. I tried to cancel and they said it’s not their fault, and they made it known to hotels & it’s their fault it wasn’t listed in the advert. Hotels said they couldn’t cancel because of a ‘fault’ and suggested I call at 4 am when I landed in Bangkok to resolve- ridiculous! The hotel are money grabbers obviously. It’s down a horrible dirty street, when I arrived in the early hours the receptionist was snoring on a chair. The ‘lobby’ was a tip- stuff everywhere, drinks on the desk, just a mess.no lift, only a dumb waiter for the bags. One male member of staff was friendly, the other woman didn’t bother to look up from her phone when I said hello to check out. The reception desk was so messy it looked like a teenager bedroom. The room was just ok- tired in parts. View of a temple across the way but like a building site surrounding. When I left a woman was sat on the floor wirh RAW bags of chicken, sorting though food?they seem to use the Lobby for whatever they want, it absolutely smelled horrible too. Only good thing was 5 min walk from buddah. Can get much nicer hotels in the area for the same £.

Room is clean but dated. Thai style hotel with friendly service but in need of some minor repairs. You’re definitely paying a premium for the view of the temple across the river.

Definitely worth a night!
My stay was amazing! I loved the food, especially at lunch and the view was superb. Just a couple tips: 1. The hotel did not supply a toothbrush/toothpaste or lotion. Bring them yourself! 2. If you plan to be staying at the hotel a lot during the day, make sure you ask not to be on the 4th floor. The restaurant/bar was right above me and I could often hear the noise of setting up. I was gone for most of the day so this didn’t bother me at all. 3. No elevator! Like most boutique hotels, there is only a lift for luggage. Be prepared to walk. Overall, I had a wonderful time. Service was amazing and the food was delicious. Highly recommended.
Delicious cooked-to-order breakfast.
Marinated grilled pork with veggies, sticky rice, and house dip. I would eat this everyday.
Complimentary traditional Thai desserts - delicious!

I brought my mom and dad an executive studio for their vacation. They love the "million dollar view" right across from Wat Arun. Customer service is superb for breakfast as well as house cleaning. Within walking distance to multiple famous temples in Bangkok is a plus! Book here you won't be disappointed. The only downside is limited parking. If you bring a car, please call hotel staff in advance for parking accommodation.

Wow, if you're after a hotel with a view, this is the place. The view from our room on the second floor was as you can see in the images published. We were shocked at the amazing view when we were shown to our room, and I can imagine the views from the higher up rooms are even more stunning. This hotel is a 1 minute walk from the The Grand Palace and the shortest possible ferry ride in Bangkok to Wat Arun. For sightseeing the location is second to none. The staff were incredibly friendly and went above and beyond to ensure we were well looked after. Arranging taxis for us and even carrying our bags to the end of the street to the taxi when we were departing. The hotel bar has incredible views of Wat Arun, and also of the Grand Palace. Drinks and food were both very good, and at a reasonable rate, considering the location. Rooms were comfy, modern and clean. Beds slightly hard, but I wouldn't let that put you off. I would highly recommend and definitely stay again.
