The flower decor in the lobby reinforces the beauty captured by the hotel's name, the Royal Orchid Sheraton. We were warmly greeted by Aon at the front desk, and received excellent attention from Shigehiro Yoshida, the front desk manager, who upgraded us to a superb suite, with floor to ceiling windows, which provided a 180-degree view of the river and Bangkok. Senabodee escorted us to the Club Lounge, where Q (Kyu) described the great variety of offerings afforded to guests. We soon met Oat, Noey Nimit, Susan, Kanjana, Pook, Fah and Yusron--the wonderful team who attentively tended to our needs and desires. This is one excellent Club! Every morning, we enjoyed breakfast at FEAST, a delightful restaurant that overlooks the river. We were warmly greeted by Warunee, Vicharn or Kornkanok, who escorted us to our table. Pronpawee, Nittaya and a host of colleagues served us with smiles. Marco Camarata, the Executive Chef, oversees a great staff, wonderfully trained and delightfully welcoming. Kitiya or Pornchai prepared our made-to-order omelet. Surat or Jaivendra Singh (Indian Chef) prepared very crisp bacon. The Sheraton sports a quality work-out room, two magnificent swimming pools and wonderful restaurants. But its people are its greatest asset. Compliments to Mathieu Bellec (Executive Assistant Manager) for a job well done that makes this a destination no visitor to Bangkok should miss. Read less

Great location and facilities. Many restaurants on site with 2 pools and swim up bar. Breakfast buffet is huge and amongst some of the best I have seen. The rooms are a little dated and service at the pool bar is pretty slow this would be my only criticism.
