Amazing service, Fantastic Location”

Great hotel but missing a few details”
Family of 4 stayed in 2 Deluxe Premier Rooms in December 2022. First the good points and they were really good. Rooms redecorated in 2019 were very nicely designed with what I would call a modern classical style, with excellent fittings and fixtures. Very good River View on high floor as requested. I particularly liked the lighting system, and the toilet was one of those expensive automatic Japanese models. 5/5. The service staff were all excellent efficient, and helpful. 5/5. A special occasion small cake was provided which was a nice touch. I also like older hotels with character, and you can't do much better than the Oriental for that. 5/5. But they fell down on a few areas which could be improved. I found their Reservations office is chaotic. Simple questions either go unanswered or are constantly misunderstood. I had the same problem a few months ago when I tried to book, but gave up in the end telling them I would stay elsewhere. This time I let it go. Even then on check in, my requested 2 rooms with King beds turned out to be 1 King and 1 Twin. Actually, as it turned out this didn't matter because the Twin beds were pushed together, but still. Surprising in view of a the hotel of such stature. 3/5. Then the 3 Thais in the group thought the Thai food at breakfast and for room service was not very good. Better at other hotels in Thailand they named. Seems the Thai food on the 2nd day was OK. Change of chef? 4/5. Another small point. It was not clear on the dual washbasin taps which was Hot and which was Cold. Had to find out by experiment! One set of taps was marked in curley hard to read script even for a native English speaker. I wonder why they just didn't mark the taps with a simple H or C. Just a small point but it's attention to detail which sorts out the top end hotels. 4/5. Finally comment. Although we all enjoyed our stay, and would recommend the hotel to others, we all thought it was over-priced. Overall rating 4/5.

Amazing stay”
My husband and I spent 4 nights at the resort to celebrate our 25th anniversary. We loved the layout and beautiful decor of our ocean view villa. The butler service was extraordinary and made our stay extra special. We wanted to get the most of southern Thai cuisine and were not disappointed with the food

I can not rave enough about the Mandarin Oriental. My girlfriend and stayed there for my birthday and simply everything was perfect. The amount of personal attention you receive is unique. We will be returning for New Year's Eve.

Experience the legend”
It’s better to make a reservation directly with the hotel and apply for Fans of M.O., so you can have 2000 baht credit and a complementary spa treatment.

Outstanding hotel”
Everything about the Mandarin Oriental is superb - the service, the staff, the rooms, the restaurants and bar - one can never go wrong staying at the MO - I first stayed at the MO in the 1970's and it has matured with grace. It seems to get better every year!

An amazing place...”
The legend among legends in the world of hotels and it didn't disappoint us. We checked in only one night to celebrate my wife's 40th birthday. The rooms are just as good as anyone can imagine... but of course it comes at a very steep price. We will come back next time when we celebrate something.. :-)

The ideal home away from home”
After our visit to the Mandarin Oriental 2 years ago I wrote the following review. Now we were there for a week and found that although the management had changed everything else had remained just as convincing and charming as ever: The claim to "make you feel at home" does not quite describe the Oriental’s main feature. What they actually do achieve is this: They give you a feeling of what the ideal home could be like. The personal care and appreciation one receives in the Oriental not just as a guest but as an individual is second to none. I can‘t think of any cons, except that people who are not sensitive to friendliness and personal attention should avoid the hotel. The following incident illustrates what I mean: Upon arrival at the Oriental, guests are greeted by welcoming personnell and presented a flower chain. One day I observed a man climbing out of the taxi, pushing the welcoming girl aside and slapping her hand as she attempted to give him the flower chain. There are many luxury hotels in the world and quite a few in Bangkok. Some might even be more luxurious with respect to interior decoration, furnishings, room facilities etc. than the Oriental. True luxury, however, does not come in the form of flat screen television sets, in-room whirlpools and the like (the rooms in the Oriental, by the way, are equipped with everything the discriminating traveller needs and designed in good taste and style) but is provided by caring and efficient personal attention. In the Oriental, your wishes are being fulfilled almost before you even know that you had them. Of course, part of the charme and spirit of the place lies in its history, but the secret of making you feel so extremely comfortable is the degree of friendliness and efficiency of the entire staff and the fact that you enjoy it not as an anonymous guest but as an appreciated individual with a name and a personal identity.

Oriental delights”
The Mandarin Oriental hotel, the original hotel situated on the River of Kings, intrigues passers by on the river taxis, and captures the imagination of all who are lucky to visit or live in Bangkok. Arrival there for a celebratory 2 night stay lived up to all expectations. Service is immaculate from the moment you step out of your vehicle, paperwork executed in comfort in your own room and all amenities explained by the person who becomes your personal butler. The rooms are well-appointed and luxurious, on the smaller side but with no reduction of style or comfort. Air con, often the most disrupting element of any hotel, is quiet and effective. All guests were invited to a cocktail reception to meet the GM - where alcohol and canapes were of the highest standard and the atmosphere in the colonial Author's Lounge beyond compare. As part of our celebration we booked dinner at Le Normandie - the French restaurant on the top floor of this building, overlooking the river or the city. We were taken to our secluded table - privacy and elegance are maintained despite the small size of restaurant and looked after beautifully by the staff, including personal service from the Maitre d'Hote. Food and beverage were all sublime. We also had dinner on the riverside terrace - a magical environment for a select menu. Breakfasts on the riverside terrace are again out of this world, though if you were to come merely for breakfast rather expensive. The buffet includes all manner of delights pleasing all nationalities and tastes. The hotel is easily accessed by skytrain and then a lovely, courteous shuttle boat service. Valet parking takes the strain from those who have approached by road and taxis are carefully sought for all without their own transport. The area over the river includes a Thai restaurant, Spa and leisure facilities. All of the hotel building and grounds are remarkable for their flowers and trees.

Perfect ”
This is the best hotel. Mandarin Oriental Bangkok has a huge staff in order to provide truly exceptional service to their guests. They must have an extensive staff training program and a very rigorous personnel screening program as the staff is, without exception, absolutely dedicated to making their guest ‘s stay as comfortable and pleasurable as possible. Every aspect of my stay here was perfection. From the warm reception to the wonderful restaurants, the spacious, spotlessly clean guest rooms to the hassle and wait- free checkout this hotel knows how to do it right and has the management and staff to make it happen. Going forward, any where I travel - if there is a Mandarin Oriental, I’m staying there.

A Great Hotel”
As far as I am concerned the Mandarin Oriental Bangkok is in a class of its own. In a good hotel you are lucky to find one or two good staff ,but at the Mandarin I can think of many I encountered. This includes Su who is a most wonderful lady that serves tea in the stunning lobby and who has a most positive attitude towards life. Also in the lobby they have a great piano player who is blind. I was touched at the kindness and respect shown to him by other members of the staff who graciously help him to get around. At the Bamboo Bar you will find a great barman who will make you one of his signature cocktails . Then kick back and enjoy the truly talented Jazz singer from America and the equally impressive saxophone and piano player all genuine professional musicians. When I arrived at the hotel I was unwell .No problem ,the Hotel has a fabulous nurse and a Doctor on the premisses .They gave me a test and had the results three hours later and supplied me the required medicine as well.Try that at another hotel,or anywhere for that matter. There are many more notable people not least is the lady who gave me a splendid massage at the hotel spa. Best I have ever had. Need I go on. This hotel has what is desperately lacking from the hotel industry.and that is genuine hospitality ,efficient and kind service. Few hotels take care of guests better and make them feel more welcomed and comfortable. Finally a tip of the hat to the good folks at Agoda who's great rate and easy to transact system made it possible for me to afford staying at this last bastion of luxury.To borrow the line of the the great actor Peter Ustinoff, "when I am leaving ,I am already planing my trip back"!.

Still one of the world's very best!”
while there may be newer, bigger, more glitzy hotels in bangkok (and around the world), the mandarin oriental continues to shine as a totally reliable, ever consistent, and beautifully maintained and serviced hotel. the decor continues to stun in quiet and traditional ways, be it in decor (loads of orchids and lotus all over, and lovely thai touches) or service (butler for every room, people who recall your name) or amenities (thoughtful canapes at tea time, in your room; fruit juice and fresh fruit compote in the morning as you laze by the pool or in the changing room of the health centre). i stayed in a 'standard' room, but even this faces the spectacular chao phraya river. there were flowers galore in the room: two potted orchids, a bouquet on the writing table, 2 glass bowls of lotus when they turn the bed down in the later afternoon, orchids by the bathroom amenities etc. throughout the decor is traditionally tasteful, quietly elegant and thoughtful! not glitzy or over the top, but elegance personified.

Outstanding hotel with exemplary service”
On arrival-warm welcome with service really first class On Check-in-Service that was helpful and thoroughly professional Room service-Luggage carried upstairs and a guide around the room with everything explained. The room was beautifully furnished and had a remarkable outlook over the water with great views of Bangkok. The bathroom was immaculate and all the little extras included with the slippers. The restaurant over the water on the ground floor by the pool is one of the best I have experienced-the views were stunning, the food delicious and the service to match-a real treat. Nothing was too much trouble in this outstanding hotel. I look forward to my next visit with my Wife and Family, and on another note compared to The Mandarin Oriental in Hong Kong-this is better!
