Excellent location in China Town
Very good service and excellent food
9.3
An excellent facility, lovely room and facilities in it. A very nice Chinese feel to the place with good quality, friendly service. The restaurant serves lovely food. Located in the middle of China Town which has a great vibrant atmosphere. Only a 15 min walk to the river ferry service. I'd certainly visit again.
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip:
Walk thru China Town to the ferry ( pier 5 ) and take the public ferry to the palca e / Temples.

Beautifully decorated rooms in a prime location
Breakfast is fantastic; the rooms are large and beautiful
9.3
the rooms in this hotel are at their basic three-star, but they've been done up so beautifully you almost don't notice there's no carpet, but instead some mats on a concrete floor. the bed is large and extremely comfortable.
the restaurant on the 3rd floor provides a buffet of guangdong/thai/western food that is extremely delicious. dinner is also reasonably price and very tasty.
location is good, although i find chinatown too bustling and hot. it is great to come to the hotel, which is peaceful and well conditioned, after a day of touring.

Oasis in the heart of china town
Decor is amazing, traditional Chinese with a modern twist
9.3
Loved being in China Town and hotel is close to the train station where we came in. You're not far from the river and grand palace etc, but a bit of s trek uptown to the CBD. Great breakfast buffet!
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip:
Definitely take a trip to SkyBar

As always staff was very helpful and friendly. Location good for seafood and shopping. Decor is nice and it is nice to be recognized and acknowledged b,y the staff. I saw on my booking that, it is supposed to be a smoking free hotel,but there are always people smoking in the downstairs area. The tall thin security guy is always extra helpful,and efficient. Good place to return to when one has to be in Bangkok. Rooms ar e quiet and relaxing.

Beautiful hotel but be aware of China town.
Very spacious, quiet, trendy
8.7
Hi there,
We staid in the hotel for 2 days. It was beautiful greeting. They offered us wet towels a a cup of green tea. Staff is very helpful and like to share their smile with you which is very unusual for Bangkok.
There is no much to say. The hotel rooms are exactly as on photos. Very clean and tidy. They are also taking you to a shopping center on tuk tuk free of charge.
The only cons are they are cleaning the rooms around 4pm (which is quite late I think) and it's located in China town which I personally disliked very much. Oh yes, be aware of one butler. He has a good relationship with local taxi drivers and will pretend to get you a "cheaper deal" which is 3 x more than normal rate. It's always wise take a meter taxi.
Shopping Tip:
The hotel will take you to a very good shopping center. Be prepared to spend there whole day :-) However, be aware of fake shop assistants and give your money only to people from who you buying goods.
I was buying some scarfs from a young girl. Then older lady came along when the younger turned her back to check if she has other scarf colours. The older women pretended to be a colleauge and asked for money. I gave the money to her and then she run away.
So i had to pay twice for the same scarfs.

Great location and great service

Really enjoyed our stay here in the heart of Chinatown in a great hotel. Clean and very unique, you could easily be staying in China itself. Great places to eat just down the road, hawker stalls serving roasted duck and pork to die for!

Don't Judge A Book By Its Cover
Unique room decor and big bathtub
7.3
This hotel is located in the centre of Bangkok's Chinatown. Its main entrance blend into its surrounding - old prewar shop houses, noisy street, Bangkok's infamous traffic jam, etc...
But once you step into the hotel's entrance you will be in another world, so to speak. The decor is chic and tranquil ambience.
The room was clean, tastefully furnished and came with a big bathtub, bigger than those usually found in business-class hotel.
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip:
The night scene just outside the hotel is a boon to tourist visiting Asia. There are many small restaurants serving BBQ seafood and Chinese delicacies like shark fin and bird nest soup.

beautiful hotel in a wonderful location
beautiful decor in the rooms set a wonderful and romantic ambience
8.7
The service was very friendly. The room was small but comfortable and cozy. The lanterns and brightly coloured decor was beautiful and we appreciated the free mini bar! The location right in the middle of China town made for some great wanderings around at night for delicious food. During the day it's not far to the markets and other attractions and the river boat.

Lovely styled hotel in Chinatown. The hotel is very peaceful compared to the busy street outside. It is well located for public transport, the staff are friendly and helpful.
