I have been staying at this Bangkok Hotel regularly (three times p.a) for over ten years. The accommodation is located in three separate blocks which are no more than six floors high . My person favourite is the North Wing, with stunning views over the river. I stay on each occasion for around ten nights and during that time make good use of the hotel’s restaurants . The Brio under the leadership of Khun Tik deserves a special mention. Regular evening visits to the Fitness Centre which is superbly looked after Khun Daar are another highlight. All the hotel team are particularly friendly and helpful, with Senior Conceige, Khun Chett, setting the perfect example. Certain aspects of the hotel are beginning to look rather tired, but there are plans to carry out some renovation later this year. Read less
