Read it your way

Anantara Siam Bangkok Hotel offers a classic luxury stay with attentive staff, lush courtyard settings, and destination dining like Spice Market and the Parichart Court breakfast buffet. Marble bathrooms feature generous bathtubs and GROHE push-button showers, while beds deliver restful sleep. However, standard rooms can feel dated or dim, and evening bar noise or construction can disrupt quiet hours. 52672

  • For the money, nothing beats The Peninsula. You're on the "wrong" side of the river, but they have a regular boat shuttle at all hours. It's true 5* at upper 4* prices. 20
  • Edit/ if it's in your price range consider the Oriental. Perfect location, great bars and restaurants, and it's got an awesome history. 20

Service43 mentions
  • The staff are well trained and treat guests like the kings or queens they are. 4
  • I won't return because of the snobby service attitude here, reminiscent of the Ritz Carlton brand reputation. 25
  • The service was very good considering that I was just a first timer at this hotel, and the elite benefits are on par with other hotel chains (suite upgrade, lounge, breakfast) which is sometimes a weakness of GHA, but not at this property. 26
  • The service here is really good - friendly and fast. We felt very comfortable and started the day relaxed, in a good mood and with really delicious food! 24
  • We found everyone at the Anantara to be exceptionally helpful, particularly when arranging a day tour of the temples. They recommended an outstanding driver who guided us to some of the most remarkable temples in Bangkok. 2
  • Thanks! The views look nice at Park! 25
  • To deserve a top 5-star hotel, of course, the service quality of Anantara Siam must meets that quality. You will be guaranteed you do not have to bring your luggage by yourself, or there will no staff lead you to the room. The staff will guide you to learn about the room, providing necessary information about the hotel. 28
  • The pool staff were highly attentive, promptly preparing our sunbeds with fresh towels as soon as they saw us. I appreciated that they provided an armband menu when they noticed we had a child with us. 2
  • In the heart of Bangkok, Anantara Siam Bangkok embodies a luxury oasis opposite the Royal Bangkok Sports Club. This colonial-style property combines impeccable service, spacious rooms, and refined cuisine, all wrapped in authentic Thai elegance. 17
  • Ironically the Ritz in Bangkok completely lacks the snob, at least among service staff. 25
  • The staff were all extremely helpful and excellent with the children, further enhancing the overall experience. 2
  • 876_b_876 • 3 taon ang nakalipas I stayed at Anantara Siam and Chiang Mai and LOVED both properties - just last week actually. They're an amazing brand - great food and above all the staff is incredible. 20
  • The breakfast however was very good and the staff were kind. 22
  • The check-out at reception was friendly, professional and quick. Everything went quickly and the bill was correct. 24
  • While there were some good aspects to the stay especially service which was excellent, the hardware is inadequate and nowhere near the level of a luxury hotel especially not for Bangkok standards. 26
  • We received a very friendly welcome on arrival and after we had chosen our loungers, the towels were laid out for us on the loungers and not even a minute after we had laid down, two glasses of cold water were ready for us to refresh ourselves - flanked by cold, fragrant towels. 24
  • As the Anantara is situated along the river, it offers a complimentary shuttle boat service to two destinations: Sathorn Pier and Iconsiam. From these points, guests can easily travel further by boat to renowned sites such as the Grand Palace. The shuttles run frequently, departing on the hour throughout the day until 11 PM, ensuring a convenient return to the hotel. 2
  • The breakfast however was very good and the staff were kind. We used Hilton points, but felt the $300-400 price tag was in no way warranted. 22
  • The rooms are nice, but the hotel is stingy with their benefits which is why I haven't returned. 25
  • The check-in was friendly and quick, but extra benefits had to be requested. We would have liked this to be different. But apart from that, we received a very friendly welcome everywhere and were also served very competently and quickly. So a big thumbs up for the team! 24
  • Half a point each is deducted for the check-in experience, which could be improved, and the room, which was in need of renovation. 24
  • When cleaning the room at night, the staff will send more fresh fruits, thank you cards and delicious fruit-shaped cakes. I still remember the taste of these beautiful little cakes. 28
  • The staff will deliver extra fresh fruits, thank you notes, and delectable fruit-shaped pastries while cleaning the room at night. I recall the flavor of these lovely tiny cakes. 15
  • When I arrived at the hotel, the staff at the lobby welcomed and instructed to enter the reception area for check-in procedures. There will be another staff who will lead guests to the room and guide some basic information, with a gift of a necklace made by beautiful white flowers. 28
  • Every staff member we interacted with was polite, professional, and attentive, always ensuring that our needs were met. 7
  • A pianist played softly in the background as we settled in for vegan afternoon tea, and the service was warm and attentive from the start. 5
  • Combine these creative culinary adventures, with the central location, elegant spaces, relaxing spa and genuinely warm service, then Anantara Siam feels like a vegan friendly luxury hotel that understands the needs of the modern luxury traveller. 5
  • I stayed at Anantara Siam and Chiang Mai and LOVED both properties - just last week actually. They're an amazing brand - great food and above all the staff is incredible. 20
  • Attentive Thai staff (some of whom have worked here for decades) and a quiet but constant buzz of people relaxing and moving through the area give the impression that this is a well-loved luxury hotel that transcends its branding. 19
  • Brio sits along the pool and had a very classy atmosphere with top of the line service. 4
  • Conrad Hilton is a great hotel for a first timer in Bangkok. Five star, not expensive, great breakfast buffet, incredibly friendly staff, and very helpful to answer any questions. 22
  • I appreciated that they provided an armband menu when they noticed we had a child with us. Our rooms were meticulously cleaned each day and were impeccably spotless. It was always lovely coming back to a freshly made bed and turn-down service was greatly appreciated in the evening. 2
  • Every suite offers Butler service and access to the Kasara Executive Lounge, ensuring a stay defined by refined sophistication and personalized service. 8
  • After a bit of back and forth, we were accompanied to our room and once there the basic appliances were explained to us very friendly. 24
  • Check-in was smooth and efficient. The staff greeted us warmly and invited us to the lounge for a private check-in experience. 7
  • We stayed in one of the newly updated Siam Rooms on the sixth floor and it felt both polished and welcoming. Recessed wood panelling and striking artwork gave the space character, while modern touches kept everything practical and comfortable. 5
  • As soon as we opened the car door on the driveway, we were greeted in an extremely friendly manner with Welcome, Sir. How are you? 24
  • It is the impeccable service, the thoughtful curation of experiences, and the harmonious blend of tradition and innovation that elevate the Anantara Siam Bangkok Hotel to a class of its own in the competitive landscape of luxury spas in Bangkok. 14
  • Siam Kempinski, Renaiisance (cold pool though), Okura Prestige, Intercontinental (not sure if renovations finished though) are all very nice and convenient for shopping. 22
  • The concierge was incredibly helpful, offering local recommendations and assisting with restaurant and activity reservations. 7
  • From the Spice Spoons cooking classes to the traditional décor and warm, personalized service, this hotel makes you feel connected to Thailand in a way that few luxury properties achieve. 6
  • The restaurant staff were consistently warm and welcoming, always attentive to our needs, and especially considerate of our children. The service was consistently five-star. 2
  • The check-in process and processing the deposit went smoothly, but as we asked whether the benefits from the Preferred Partner Rate had also been lodged, the check-in staff member paused, frowned and had to double check a little awkwardly. 24
Food54 mentions
  • I was particularly pleased to discover a live cooking station dedicated to omelettes, which were expertly prepared to perfection each morning. The combination of diverse culinary offerings and the picturesque riverside setting made our breakfast experience truly exceptional. 2
  • The breakfast occurs in the Market Restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating along the Chao Praya River. This was one of the most extensive breakfast buffets that I've enjoyed in a while! They had cuisines from all corners of the globe, all tasting fantastic. 4
  • Having stayed in a few hotels in Bangkok recently I can say that most have offered a decent alternative via an extensive a la carte menu. However at Anantara the replacement was very weak in my opinion: only a handful of western traditional choices such as eggs and bacon, and congee was the only Asian choice. 26
  • Breakfast at Parichart Court quickly became something we looked forward to. The buffet is extensive, with live stations and a wide range of cuisines, and crucially, plenty of options that are actually vegan rather than almost vegan. 5
  • Dining at Anantara Siam is a highlight, with multiple award-winning restaurants including Madison, serving contemporary European cuisine, and Shintaro, offering authentic Japanese fare. 6
  • In general, the buffet breakfast is quite ok, with a variety of dishes to make you feel comfortable to ensure an energetic day. 28
  • St. Regis: very good breakfast. Probably the best Khao soy you can find at a hotel breakfast. 25
  • Breakfast is probably top 3 in Bangkok. 25
  • The food was outstanding, with each dish more delicious than the last. 2
  • The Waldorf is a step above the Conrad, and is probably the only Hilton I would stay at again in Bangkok. People rave about their breakfast, but those are usually people not too experienced with Asian hotel standards. 25
  • The restaurant's decor creates the illusion of being transported from Bangkok to Italy, with a sophisticated and elegantly designed ambiance that enhances the overall dining experience. 2
  • The decadent Sunday brunch is served between among several spaces, and features dishes from a few of the hotel's restaurants, as well as cooking stations and buffet items. 3
  • The food during the afternoon tea was modest, yet tasty. 4
  • In general, the breakfast buffet is adequate, with a variety of foods to make you feel at ease and enable an active day. 15
  • Dessert was mango sticky rice topped with pandan cotton candy, playful, sweet and an creative interpretation of our favourite Thai dessert. 5
  • Dinner at Biscotti was a real treat and one of the best vegan Italian meals we've had the pleasure to enjoy. Chef Giuseppe and his team have created a dedicated vegan menu that felt generous, creative, and true to Italian flavours. The service was friendly and relaxed which made the evening feel easy going and enjoyable. 5
  • I stayed at Anantara Siam and Chiang Mai and LOVED both properties - just last week actually. They're an amazing brand - great food and above all the staff is incredible. 20
  • The restaurant features a stone oven that cooks the pizzas to perfection, and they enthusiastically declared them to be amazing. 2
  • The dishes are decorated not too fussy but still feel full of subtle. I order mostly Asian and have a few more European dishes. The most impressive dish is the dessert, which was a large cup of ice cream as if it was boiled in a glass cup, the smoke was rising. 28
  • Items I liked were the crab rangoons, prawn curry, fried prawns, and the coffee creme brulee! 4
  • And Hotel Muse is cute (and has a great breakfast). 22
  • Overall, the food quality was excellent, and the variety ensured there was something for everyone, from Thai specialties to Western favorites. 7
  • 876_b_876 • 3 taon ang nakalipas I stayed at Anantara Siam and Chiang Mai and LOVED both properties - just last week actually. They're an amazing brand - great food and above all the staff is incredible. 20
  • During our stay at Anantara Siam Bangkok, dinner at Spice Market was a delightful culinary experience. We started with the satay ruam, an assortment of skewers with a delicious peanut sauce, followed by crispy vegetarian spring rolls. 17
  • This was a novel experience for us, and the boys were initially bewildered to see a chef with fresh ingredients awaiting our arrival. Our chef was exceptional, engaging the boys by allowing them to participate in the cooking process, which they found absolutely thrilling. 2
  • If you prefer a taste of the East, you can't go wrong with the sushi bar and tatami-style dining room of Shintaro, or the charming old-fashioned surroundings of Thai restaurant Spice Market. 9
  • Location was perfect for us and we LOVED the Thai Resto and Breakfast. 20
  • Meals in the various hotel restaurants were a treat for the senses, offering refined and varied cuisine, not to mention the essential Sunday brunch. 17
  • Skip the JW. Terrible area, tiny rooms unless you book a "corner" or suite, unimpressive breakfast. 25
  • Gourmet or casual, indoor or al fresco, Western, Eastern, or Thai-the Anantara is a one-stop-shop for whatever you're craving, and has become a popular dining destination for locals. 16
  • At least breakfast is free. 20
  • The South American restaurant is located together with most of the others in the inner courtyard of the Parichart wing and conveys a cozy atmosphere despite the chic and slightly futuristic furnishings. 24
  • To my delight-and slight dismay-my eldest son discovered a love for prawns! Our meal featured an array of fresh meats, fish, rice, and various sides. Each dish was impeccably fresh and flavorful, leaving us reluctant for the experience to end. 2
  • I asked for a couple of wine glasses and instead they generously brought an entire bottle which was the complete opposite than their cost-cutting on the subpar breakfast. 26
  • The Lobby Lounge is a classic spot for afternoon tea or a sophisticated evening drink or meeting, while the Kasara Lounge on the seventh floor serves an excellent breakfast in quiet surroundings if you prefer this to the more extensive options available on the ground floor. 19
  • In the evening, the restaurant that hosts the breakfast buffet the Riverside terrace transforms into an ambient dining venue offering a diverse array of cuisines from around the world. The experience was nothing short of heavenly. I was particularly delighted with the mashed potatoes and filet steak, which were exceptional. 2
  • Plus the mrt is right next door which connects to the airport link! Their pool and food and breakfast is amazing and so are the suites 22
  • From the vegan menu which was presented by Chef Punn, we started with 'Yam Som O', a pomelo salad served as three small portions, each topped with fried tofu and house chilli paste. It was fresh, spicy and beautifully balanced. 5
  • The attention to detail extends to the dining experience, where the chefs' ability to tailor dishes according to nutritional preferences demonstrates the hotel's dedication to the overall health and satisfaction of its patrons. 14
  • The restaurant, as other public spaces in the hotel, was a strength and looked quite nice. 26
  • Dinner at Biscotti was a real treat and one of the best vegan Italian meals we've had the pleasure to enjoy. Chef Giuseppe and his team have created a dedicated vegan menu that felt generous, creative, and true to Italian flavours. 5
  • I must admit, Italian cuisine is often challenging for me due to my gluten and dairy intolerances. However, at Brio, the menu is clearly labeled, allowing me to choose and enjoy a delicious asparagus risotto-a dish I had never tried before but will certainly have again. 2
  • The dessert was the most stunning item, a big cup of ice cream that seemed as if it had been boiled in a glass cup, with smoke billowing. 15
  • The breakfast did not meet the expectations corresponding to this level of hotel 17
  • The hotel's restaurant, The Flow, offers a variety of international dishes. The decor is modern and elegant with a touch of Thai culture, featuring hand-crafted wooden furnishings, intricate Thai artwork, and soft lighting. 12
  • Lunch at Spice Market was another highlight and a reminder of just how exciting Thai food can be when done well. 5
  • What really stood out for us was the consistency of the vegan offering. From breakfast through to dinner, afternoon tea and in room snacks, plant based food is well considered and readily available, huge respect to Executive Chef Justin and his team for making this happen. 5
  • Don't miss the hotel's popular Sunday brunch, where you can enjoy free-flowing champagne, cooking stations and a live band. 9
  • Siam - Loved that its an oasis in the city. The second you walk in, you forget about the hustle and bustle of Bangkok. Location was perfect for us and we LOVED the Thai Resto and Breakfast. 20
  • I love the Waldorf especially their breakfast and the pool. I prefer the rooms at the Rosewood however. 25
  • During our lunch at Biscotti, we were captivated by the accuracy of the Italian cuisine served. Our meal began with a creative beetroot and foie gras salad, followed by a pizza topped with burrata and Parma ham, and tagliolini with royal crab, blending freshness and intensely satisfying flavors. 17
  • I love the Waldorf especially their breakfast and the pool. 25
  • Aqua is a popular night-time haunt for young Thais, and puts on one of the city's best Sunday brunches; I tried to taste everything but there was far too much choice... highlights were the whole baked salmon, pan-seared foie gras, and the seafood and meat grilling station. It was a food lover's paradise. 19
  • The Sunday brunch at Anantara Siam is a true institution in Bangkok, known for its lively, elegant, and artistic atmosphere. 17
Location23 mentions
  • With its prime location offering easy access to Bangkok's renowned cultural landmarks and shopping districts, the hotel promises an experience that artfully blends the essence of Thai heritage with the finesse of modern luxury. 14
  • The Sheraton grande is absolute prime for location but the hotel is very old and has not been updated. 25
  • Experience unparalleled luxury at Anantara Siam Bangkok Hotel, a tropical oasis in Bangkok's most exclusive location. 8
  • Anantara Siam is located in the heart of Bangkok, takes more than 30 minutes by taxi from Suvarnabhumi Airport. This area gathering many high-end hotels such as InterContinental, Hayatt, and major shopping malls such as Central World, Big C, and Siam Paragon. This ensures you have a quiet space, safe, and convenient for shopping. 28
  • Set in the smart Ratchadamri district, it's perfectly placed for shopping, temples and transportation, yet somehow manages to feel like a calming oasis from the bustling city outside. 5
  • On your list, I only know Akara, which is fairly priced for it's location and quality. 20
  • Anantara Siam Bangkok Hotel, one of the best hotels in Bangkok, combines an unrivalled location with iconic design and gracious hospitality. 29
  • Lebua is a great location but as you referred to, you need to be very unrestricted on your budget. 20
  • The hotel is well situated in the Ratchaprasong shopping and entertainment district. 9
  • Its central location near top shopping malls, cultural sites, and the BTS Skytrain makes it a convenient and comfortable choice for travelers. 7
  • Anantara Siam Bangkok Hotel is the ideal base from which to explore Bangkok, with the Skytrain steps away. 12
  • The location is fantastic because you get to enjoy a very relaxed atmosphere, all while having the conveniences of Bangkok at your fingertips. 4
  • This neighborhood is home to numerous high-end hotels, like the InterContinental and Hayatt, as well as large retail complexes, including Central World, Big C, and Siam Paragon. This guarantees that you enjoy a peaceful, safe, and convenient shopping environment. 15
  • Muse has by far the best location. 20
  • I really liked W actually but Waldorf and Park Hyatt have a more central location. 25
  • This five-star hotel is well-known for its stunning traditional Thai décor, exceptional dining options, and beautiful courtyard gardens, blending urban convenience with serene luxury. We stayed at Anantara Siam Bangkok for one night and were impressed by both the service and location. 7
  • An ideal location well connected to public transport 17
  • The riverside location was conveniently close to all the major attractions in Bangkok, allowing easy access via riverboat. 2
  • The Anantara Siam Bangkok is located in the elegant Ratchadamri district - one of the most central and pleasant locations in the city. 24
  • Location was perfect for us and we LOVED the Thai Resto and Breakfast. 20
  • A very central location on Ratchadamri Road facing the Royal Bangkok Sports Club. The Siam and Sukhumvit shopping and dining districts are ten minutes' walk to the north, while Lumpini Park is a little farther in the other direction 19
  • An Urban Oasis in the Heart of Bangkok Anantara Siam Bangkok is located in the vibrant Ratchaprasong district, a true strategic crossroads for enjoying Bangkok. Just steps from the metro and sky train stations, this luxury hotel provides quick and easy access to the city's main attractions. 17
  • Siam - Loved that its an oasis in the city. The second you walk in, you forget about the hustle and bustle of Bangkok. Location was perfect for us and we LOVED the Thai Resto and Breakfast. 20
Room29 mentions
  • The room I stayed here is a Deluxe room with city view. Room size of 42m2, not too large but also larger than most hotel rooms in the city. If you go with 2 adults + 1 child, this room is quite comfortable. 28
  • The Deluxe River View Room was spacious and featured a gorgeous balcony looking down over the pool and the Chao Praya River. It was fantastic to wake up, open the curtains, and see the absolutely beautiful Bangkok sunrise. 4
  • Another option in the area of the Ritz is the brand new Dusit Thani. It's a household name in Thailand. Their standout thing is that every room offers a stunning park view. 25
  • And Hotel Muse is cute (and has a great breakfast). We had a good stay at Novotel Ploenchit couple years ago (Suite and open air executive lounge were great). 22
  • We had the pleasure of staying in a Grand Premier Room spanning 42 m². Designed with a contemporary decor that blends elegant and comfortable furniture with Thai touches, it exudes a serenely luxurious aesthetic and authentic charm. 17
  • Back in the room, clearly labelled vegan snacks in the minibar were a small but much appreciated touch. 5
  • The place I stayed in was a Deluxe room with a view of the city. Room size is 42m2, which is not too huge but is greater than other hotel rooms in the city. This room is fairly comfortable for two people and one child. 15
  • The bed was excellent, with a choice of pillows including a non feather option, and the room felt quiet and restful despite being in the heart of the city. 5
  • The Sindhorn shares the property with the Maa Lai. What stood out for me at this property was the rate for the base suite. It is consistently about $30 more per night than a base room, which is large itself. The design is OK, nothing special. 25
  • I liked Waldorf more than Park Hyatt. Park Hyatt is too minimalist for me--a disappointment. I stayed at Grand Hyatts that were more impressive. Room was incredibly underwhelming for a high-end property. 25
  • The Deluxe River View Room was spacious and featured a gorgeous balcony looking down over the pool and the Chao Praya River. 4
  • Regarding the room that is another matter though as some aspects will remain "vintage" although renovations would help mitigate the weakness. 26
  • The enchanting 828-square-foot Garden Terrace Suite has a private entrance with elegant white columns set amid tropical greenery. 9
  • The room was also somewhat dark due to having only two windows on each side of the TV, unlike many other hotels in the city which have floor to ceiling windows. 26
  • Skip the JW. Terrible area, tiny rooms unless you book a "corner" or suite, unimpressive breakfast. 25
  • The main problem of our suite was that the room was very dated and reminded me of Royal Orchid Sheraton or Swissotel Ratchada, both of which have seen better days in terms of hardware and its been many years since they are no longer considered luxury. 26
  • Skip the JW. Terrible area, tiny rooms unless you book a "corner" or suite, unimpressive breakfast. The finishes in room are very nice though and was thoroughly renovated in 2018ish. 25
  • The understated effect is balanced by a deep-purple sofa and cushions providing the requisite Anantara accents - I particularly liked the oversized lamps and lampshades, and the hanging glass lamps near the window. It was a nice space to be in. 19
  • The room was spacious, well-furnished, and featured a mix of classic Thai elements with contemporary touches. 7
  • Grand Premier Room at a rate of €250 in February 2024. 17
  • To conclude on a positive note about the room, the bed was very comfortable, air conditioning worked well, therefore in combination with the quiet room we could have good nights of sleep. 26
  • Another sign of the age of the hotel was the lack of convenient power plugs on either side of the bed we had to reach behind the night tables. 26
  • The finishes in room are very nice though and was thoroughly renovated in 2018ish. 25
  • Park Hyatt is too minimalist for me--a disappointment. I stayed at Grand Hyatts that were more impressive. Room was incredibly underwhelming for a high-end property. 25
  • Every Sunday, Trader Vic's hosts a Tiki Beach-themed brunch for guests, and the experience far exceeded our expectations. Upon arrival, we were immediately impressed by the stunning decor, which heightened our anticipation for what was to come. 2
  • Small touches like a pillow menu, fresh orchids, and a complimentary fruit platter added to the overall experience. However, the room felt a little dated and darker than expected. 7
  • Half a point each is deducted for the check-in experience, which could be improved, and the room, which was in need of renovation. 24
  • Furniture and materials used in the room are all high-end, the decoration is quite sophisticated and slightly bearing Thai style. 15
  • The large window provides a view of the backyard and therefore the pool. As the room in this area of the hotel on the 7th floor is also on the top floor, the view is somewhat restricted at the top by the protruding roof and at the bottom by the wall protrusion. 24

  • The king-size bed was plush and extremely comfortable, ensuring a restful sleep. 7
  • The large king-size bed is really exceptionally comfortable and we had a great night's sleep here. 24
Bathroom8 mentions
  • Entering the door is the bathroom area at left, paved with high quality stone. Bath tub and washbasin are both large, and include small, independent shower room. 15
  • The bathroom was also dated; not much can be done about low ceilings and windows, however renovating the bathroom to a higher standard would be an easier thing to fix. It was most likely renovated at some point, but there was no rain shower (although good size), and the faucets in the dual vanity felt loose. 26
  • L'Occitane shower products using pleasing Thai-style scents are available, but unfortunately, late each evening I could detect a faint smell of drains in the bathroom (not present during the day). 19
  • The marble-clad bathroom felt luxurious, featuring a deep soaking bathtub, a separate rainfall shower, and premium Anantara-branded toiletries. 7
  • Bathrooms are notably spacious and luxe, with marble floors and walls, glass bath scales, separate soaking tubs and walk-in showers, and toiletry kits with L'Occitane bath products, razors, and toothbrushes; bathrobes and slippers are also provided. 3
  • The old teak work desk and dark-wood wardrobe fittings remain from the hotel's older days - no bad thing - but the bathroom has been brightened up and is a good size, with a roomy walk-in shower and separate bath. 19
  • To the right of the room is the bathtub and in the left corner is the spacious walk-in rain shower also featuring hand shower and care products from the in-house - really high-quality - brand. 24
  • The marble bathroom was generous in size, with a free standing bathtub and a brilliant GROHE 'push button' shower that made life in the shower refreshingly simple with no guessing which dial does what. 5
Value15 mentions
  • While it is more expensive than some other hotels in Bangkok, the combination of a prime location, world-class service, and excellent amenities makes it a worthwhile investment for travelers looking for a high-end experience. 7
  • On-site dining can be pricey 3
  • The Shangri La is also a bit (a bit) of a bargain and has a legendary Chinese restaurant. 20
  • Thanks! Rosewood is significantly more expensive! 25
  • On top of the Sky Bar prices, you also have what are probably the two most expensive restaurants in the country, Mezzaluna and Chef's Table. 20
  • All in all, however, I have to say that the price here does not correspond to what is offered to guests. I get a lot more for this price elsewhere, especially in Bangkok and even more with status. 24
  • For slightly hipper (and less expensive) luxury, the SO Sofitel is on the corner of Lumpini and walkable to all the Saladeng-area stuff and Sathorn. 22
  • For the money, nothing beats The Peninsula. You're on the "wrong" side of the river, but they have a regular boat shuttle at all hours. It's true 5* at upper 4* prices. 20
  • Standard rooms are comfortable but not the largest in this price category - for more space, Banyan Tree Bangkok offers all-suite accommodations 6
  • Unfortunately, there's a fee for Wi-Fi and dining is expensive. 3
  • ium and Siam Discovery - strong value in the Siam shopping core. 6
  • Edit/ if it's in your price range consider the Oriental. Perfect location, great bars and restaurants, and it's got an awesome history. 20
  • Don't know if it's in your price range but have you considered The Peninsula? Great river views, shuttle boats to the bts and river ferry (which is what you need to get to most places you'll want to see) 20
  • Conrad Hilton is a great hotel for a first timer in Bangkok. Five star, not expensive, great breakfast buffet, incredibly friendly staff, and very helpful to answer any questions. 22
  • Smart mid-budget choice in Silom - clean modern rooms, reliable Hilton Honors loyalty value, walking distance to BTS Sala Daeng and Patpong night market. 6
Noise7 mentions
  • Another full point deduction for the noise pollution from the bar in the evening and for the mosquitoes buzzing all over the hotel. 24
  • Additionally, the soundproofing could be improved, as we could hear construction noise at 11 PM and music from the live band, even though we were on the 7th floor. 7
  • While close to BTS, the immediate street surroundings on Ratchadamri can be congested during rush hours - particularly between 5 and 7 PM when traffic barely moves. 6
  • The room was facing the main road and the sky train track but there were two thick windows which completely blocked off the street noise, unlike the much newer WA where despite staying in a room several floors higher if you are facing the street you can be disturbed by noise unlike Anantara which was quiet. 26
  • The area though, I much prefer it over sukhimvit. much easier and faster to catch a Grab bike or car there as it's a quieter area than sukhimvit. 25
  • On the evening of our stay, there was even live music here with some loud and slightly disturbing participation from Chinese guests. Unfortunately, the bar is located in the inner area of the side wing and all the hotel rooms on this side have their doors facing the inner courtyard - so it was correspondingly loud inside the rooms until 11pm. 24
  • Some rooms get noise from the restaurants and courtyard 3
