    This is a nice boutique bed and breakfast, not a 4-star hotel. It lacks any hotel amenities such as restaurant, gym and swimming pool,. The room is very small, but clean. The staff is friendly and helpful. The location is excellent and right on the river, 10 minutes walk to Grand Palace and Wat Pho. The breakfast is delicious.

    The Aurum had been recommended by friends. The owner grew up in the home and so knows the area intimately. Great restaurants and sights nearby - from wats and temples to flower markets and five star hotels on the river. We took a Klong tour arranged by them. Bed was comfy, brekky on the river. Highly recommend this boutique hotel for a stay away from the usual city hub

    The stay at Aurum river Place was excellent. I loved being close to the Chao Praya river. It is so easy to catch the river boats to go to the various different markets and locations along the river. Being so close to the Grand Palace also made it nice to walk to directly.

I enjoyed sitting on the patio, watching the boats go by, enjoying the view of Wat Arun, eating delicious soup, while sipping my morning coffee and munching on fresh melon. The room was clean and comfortable. There were many yummy restaurants within a few-minute walk of the hotel, along with many of tourist attractions (Wat Pho, Wat Arun), great shops, and fun rooftop bars!

    Great location & reasonable price”

    The hotel is small but chic also the staff quiet friendly. The hotel is located near tourist attractions such as The Grand Palace, Wat Po, Wat Arun, etc (± 5 minutes walk) also near 7-11 and money exchange. Breakfast was simple but delicious. The only downside were it is quite hard to find the hotel when you were coming for the first time because it is located in the corner of an alley. Overall it was an amazing stay for us.

    Nice view on the river from special rooms

    Beside an English breakfast were not many offers; the rooms are clean and have nice international hotel furnitures. The rooms with river view are really nice; But we didn't find very much of any typical Thai atmosphere. When I once asked for chilies they offered a CHINESE SWEET chili-sauce. Also the staff was not really helpful for a Tuc Tuc or other questions; The surrounding is poor, but we felt day and night absolutely secure and the people outside were always helpful, square and fair. Temples and the flower-market (especially in the evening!) are close.
