Location is both good and bad. Far away from city centre and train / boat pier, but excellent to be by the river and the area is otherwise good. Local shops and fish market close by. Will come back another time. Only but is, that is seems a little intimidating to receive a note under the door during night just because you have a bill of baht 1500 from the restaurant and need to pay it asap. That could be prevented by presentation of credit card at check inn. Nice service level otherwise.

Excellent hotel. Lovely pool and breakfast. Easy access to the river ferry (you just need to walk across the bridge), making it convenient to get to the city center, even if the location is not very central.

Great little hotel

Lovely new hotel, very attentive staff. Not too much in the local vicinity. Need to get a cab to most places.

I stayed here in mid-February 2026, while they were GLOW Riverside. See they have now changed name to TARA Riverside. Great property, with a riverside location. The river view from my room was rather limited but the room was big and really great. Loved the balcony where I could relax with a local beer in the evening. A little bit out of the way when it comes to public transportation, but that is surely going to change soon. Would definitely stay again.
