My first stay at Royal Orchid Sheraton and it was a pleasant experience. I’m a Bonvoy Gold Elite member so I received an upgrade to a deluxe room with panoramic river views! Out front about service; I only experienced super friendly staff throughout my stay!!! Fantastic!!! Special “thank you” to Khun ICE from room service who provided fantastic service with a big smile and little conversation; perfect English as well!! The room is large with floor to ceiling windows. The bed is bed and crisp linen with nice pillows. Good TV programs and large safety box. Room amenities are ok but could be a bit more selective for coffee/Tea and toiletries. There is a mini fridge but it was empty which made surprised; deluxe rooms should have a stirred minibar as I needed to go to the nearby 7/11 to buy some convince drinks (juice/cola…). Bathroom was good but no separate shower! The restaurants are great! Lobby lounge is very cozy with great happy hours (buy 1 Free 1) in the afternoon! They make very delicious Apero Sprits and the staff are great! Siam Yacht Club the river front restaurant is a very beautiful place to chill at the bar and I had a pre-dinner cocktail “delicious Apero Spritz” followed by a Tomahawk steak dinner with some food Australian wine “Monkey Madness”… all was fantastic including service by Khun Jiratom, Khun Tanutat and Khun Pasin! As I’m a Club Marriott member I also received big discount on the food & beverage bill!!! Breakfast buffet was plentiful with huge variety of international foods. Good coffee!!! Seating was available for indoor or outdoor. Overall very good experience and good value for money! I will be back!!! Read less

Very Good Hotel with an ideal location by the river with convenient transport to major sightseeing places. Reception Staff Rita ( Manager) and Lana were very helpful and Courteous. Concierge staff, entire team is outstanding; knowledgeable and very helpful for guidance. Grace, X on the first day and especially Nuttapam throughout our 10 days stay assisted us with smiling face and great attitude. Many engaging educational conversations with Nuttapam. And every morning that signature smile with which Korn welcomed us for Breakfast, remembering our room numbers was refreshing. Natcha in cafe is very pleasant personality, energetic and great in conversation. customer orientation at its best. Few others who were nice and helpful were Saranya, Pronpawee and Pranote. Great Service consistent with Bonvoy/Sheraton Brand. Food has large selection and good quality ingredients. And as Bonus, we got to see Miss World who was staying there and witnessed her kindness and humbleness. Makes her even more Beautiful. Our Daughter’s family and us thoroughly enjoyed and We will return with Son’s family next year. Read less

Great for business stay and maybe art lovers. It is a very old hotel thus everything looks dated but in working condition. The room may smell a bit (not sure if it’s musky due to old furnitures or the room spray). Spacious room and stay facing the river to see the spectacular view of it.

Great for business stay and maybe art lovers. It is a very old hotel thus everything looks dated but in working condition. The room may smell a bit (not sure if it’s musky due to old furnitures or the room spray). Spacious room and stay facing the river to see the spectacular view of it. It is next to Rivercity Bangkok and they hold different galleries which could be very fun and interesting to appreciate. Hotel offers a boat shuttle that takes you across to IconSiam and the BTS. I heard from some guests that they walked to Chinatown which took them about 20-30mins. The lounge is very very equipped. Full bar service and lots of food options. I enjoyed it a lot. Breakfast buffet at ground floor served nice spread and my colleagues gave the thumbs up. It lives up to the Sheraton brand but I hope they can have some makeover soon. Read less
