They have an amazing staff, the breakfast was delicious, the view from our room was breathtaking infront of Wat Arun, the room was spacious and elegant. Walking distance to the temples, many options for food and shopping nearby. We really enjoy our time in Arun Riverside, made our trip to Bangkok more memorable.

Best view in Bangkok

This boutique hotel is such a great hidden gem. From the location to the staff, I highly recommend. Best view in Bangkok by far!!!! Walkable distance to Khao San road and 5 min walk to hop on hop off boat taxi. Our check in was so smooth and we were treated very well. We will definitely be back when we return to Bangkok.

Views are amazing from the room. Great location, although it’s a little hard to hail a taxi from the place due to the attractions around it. A little run down and could do with some renovation to the place

Great location with amazing river view and in walking distance to the temples. Most importantly you feel at home - the staff (shoutout to Anuwat!) is very nice and accommodating. Great roofdeck with river view (closes at 10pm to avoid noise for hotel guests). Very nice, relaxing place in this bustling city!

Great location, with the best view of Wat ARUN across the river. Staff were all nice and accommodating. Breakfast was good, with Amercian/European and Asian dishes. You can walk to lots of great sites. When getting a taxi from the airport, tell the driver it is across the street from Wat Phra. Ours got hopelessly confused for some reason. Our friend who stayed in a nearby hotel had the same issue. Maybe most tourists stay downtown? The old town area is best, though. Much less driving around!

Great location for visiting the main sights - not as big a hotel as we thought but that wasn't a problem. Staff were friendly and helpful, breakfasts simple but tasty and the rooftop bar and restaurant were great.

Staff was very friendly and helpful. Food in hotel was excellent. Can’t beat the view of Wat Arun from our room. Very convenient to the palace and temples. Visit in morning and back to hotel to escape the heat and then out again in late afternoon. Would definitely stay again.

Don’t have enough time to read my review? Here is a summary: Book the executive studio suite with a river view and balcony you won’t regret it! Zoom, Kathy, Maew, and the rest of the staff are phenomenal. Communication before arrival: The front desk of the hotel closes at 10:00 pm and our plane was scheduled to land at 9:30. When I emailed the hotel, I received a prompt response that someone would wait at the hotel until we arrived. Late Arrival: We arrived around 11pm and as promised, several employees were waiting and they met us with positive energy/ genuine interest in making our stay a memorable one. State of the room and view: EXACTLY as advertised. Breakfast: Every night we put our breakfast order in and let the staff know what time we anticipated eating. There are several options - our favorite was the pancakes, bananas, and bacon. The cook, Maew, did such an excellent job that my mom thanked him in person, twice! In addition to the made-to-order items, there are staples (i.e. cereal, milk, assorted fruit, toast, and bottled water). Hospitality: Everyone, including Zoom and Kathy, went the extra mile to make sure our stay was pleasant. Location: Near Wat Arun and the Grand Palace. There are also taxis and tuk tuks nearby in case the Grab app isn’t working. Vibe: Young hotel (at the time about a month old) primed and ready to make a splash on the river front. Thank you to the Arun Riverside staff for making our first stop in Thailand a memorable one!!

4/10 Fair

What a dump!

Absolutely overpriced. At £120 a night id expect more. Firstly I booked and seconds later received an email from the hotel saying they’re would be construction noise all day, and sorry for the late notice but they “just found out”. Absolute rubbish. I tried to cancel and they said it’s not their fault, and they made it known to hotels & it’s their fault it wasn’t listed in the advert. Hotels said they couldn’t cancel because of a ‘fault’ and suggested I call at 4 am when I landed in Bangkok to resolve- ridiculous! The hotel are money grabbers obviously. It’s down a horrible dirty street, when I arrived in the early hours the receptionist was snoring on a chair. The ‘lobby’ was a tip- stuff everywhere, drinks on the desk, just a mess.no lift, only a dumb waiter for the bags. One male member of staff was friendly, the other woman didn’t bother to look up from her phone when I said hello to check out. The reception desk was so messy it looked like a teenager bedroom. The room was just ok- tired in parts. View of a temple across the way but like a building site surrounding. When I left a woman was sat on the floor wirh RAW bags of chicken, sorting though food?they seem to use the Lobby for whatever they want, it absolutely smelled horrible too. Only good thing was 5 min walk from buddah. Can get much nicer hotels in the area for the same £.

새벽사원 뷰 아주 확실합니다. 아무 일정없이 창가만 바라보고 있어도 좋아요. 호텔이 일반 호텔이 아니라 우리나라 관광지 많은 펜션들처럼 1층이랑 루프탑은 식사랑 바이고 2-4층만 숙박시설 이예요. 직원들 너무 친절하고 항상 웃어주세요. 조식도 새벽 체크아웃이면 투고로 포장도 해줘요. 새벽 4시 체크아웃인데 알람도 해주고 택시도 불러주더라구요. 엘베없고 호텔 앞까지 택시를 부르거나 타고 올 수 없으니 참고하세요. 모기약이랑 훈증기 필수!! 물가 옆이니 아무리 새벽사원 뷰라도 창문 열기를 조심하세요. 저희는 결국 둘째날 편의점에서 훈증기 사다 꼽았어요. 왓포, 왓아룬 가깝고 주변 다 번화가라 좋아요. 편의점, ATM기,마사지샵 모두 가끼워요.

완벽해요

창 밖으로 보이는 왓아룬 뷰만으로 묵을 가치가 있는 호텔이에요 시간에 따라 달라지는 뷰가 너무너무 매력적이에요 직원 분들도 친절하고 조식도 맛있어요 사람이 탈 수 있는 엘베가 없어서 계단을 이용해야하지만 그것마저도 감성적이에요
