Arrived late on a Tuesday evening and the service was as sharp and attentive as a Monday morning. Rooms were clean with comfortable beds and great showers and amenities. Had requested rooms with river view and regretted it because construction work on a bridge was the source of a lot of noise; however, there is a lot of activity on the river that is fun to watch and beautifully lit up at night. The pool is a true urban oasis and the breakfast buffet, in a beautiful space, had enough delicious options to provide a different experience for weeks. The Pub and Mocha and Muffins restaurants also provided great variety and fun atmospheres. Getting around Bangkok on the ferry is a nice option to stay on the water when it's hot and humid, and Grab was easy and inexpensive when that wasn't feasible. Also enjoyed the change of vibe and spectacular view checking out SEEN just across the (not busy/private) street. Anantara, if you read this, you must tell us where you get your hotel mattresses - we need one! Read less

Lovely resort. Service was top quality, the hotel is lovely and has everything you could possibly need and a really nice quality but relaxed feel to it. So the compromise with this resort vs those more in the central is that you get a more relaxed resort type feel, lovely pool etc but it takes a while on the complimentary shuttle boat to get in and out when you do want to go into the city. It worked really well for us though, we used the shuttle boat a lot, and then just used Grab to get taxis when it wasn’t convenient to go back to the ferry. Taxis were relatively cheap to get to or from anywhere we needed to go in the city. At the hotel, the Elephant Bar was a hit with the teenagers with pool table and dart board, and the staff there were lovely. The cafe serving coffees and cakes was lovely too and used frequently. I upgraded our rooms to the ones fronting the river and was glad I did. Restaurants and pool bar also good options for when you don’t want to go into town. Read less

Green, beautiful resort with a fabulous kids club with activities arranged, the free shuttle boat ride on the hour till night really make this resort a class above the rest of the hotels on the Choa Phraya. We were at first hesitant to book into this hotel as it’s been around for many years and there’s just been many new and more avant garde hotels in Bangkok. Our research however tells us that this hotel has consistently ranked high with families travelling kids and our trip just confirms those who have come before us. Wonderful choices of international food too at the small but sufficient mall with food ranging from Korean fried chicken to Japanese bento style food for the picky eaters. If you are more adventurous there are also some small eateries with local choices just around the corner from the small mall. It’s a little far out from the BTS but the affordable taxis/grabs do make up for this. If your intention is to stay in at a resort style hotel and still just a skip from a big mall coupled with an excellent kids club , then the ANANTARA RIVERSIDE RESORT is a good choice for a family vacation.

We had a fantastic stay at Anantara Riverside Bangkok. The staff were incredibly kind, helpful, and welcoming. We were upgraded to a partial riverside view deluxe room, which was a lovely surprise. Breakfast was amazing, so many options it was hard to choose! The room was spotlessly cleaned twice a day with turn-down service, and the cleaning team even folded some of my clothes, which was such a kind touch. The only small suggestion would be to update the bathrooms in the deluxe rooms as they feel a little dated. Overall, a beautiful hotel with excellent service, would happily stay again! Read less

From the time we exited the van that picked us up from the airport, the greeted us with warm words, even opened the door for us while exiting the van. I must say that the hospitality here is top tier! The ambiance is also something that was very alluring and beautiful. The culture that is built into this hotel makes it a must stay for me. Not to mention, they have a sister hotel right across the way that you also have access too which is really nice because there’s a mall and everyone’s favorite, 7-11!! We stayed in a Riverside room. The rooms are beautiful, beds are very comfortable. A/C on full blast the entire time which worked extremely well. Bathroom was INCREDIBLE! Breakfast was free for us, and buffet styled. Highly recommend getting the breakfast here at this hotel! They had such a great variety of food and drinks that you always wanted to go back for 2nd and 3rds. They also have daily wellness shots which I appreciate a lot because traveling can be a lot sometimes. Gym was awesome if you’re looking for a good workout plus cold plunges in the morning if that’s your thing! Free boat ride to different places in Bangkok. We went to ICONSIAM twice! Thank you to all of the wonderful people that work at this hotel. They made it such an experience! Read less
