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.

A little run down and could do with some renovation to the place

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!

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 £.

Definitely worth a night!

My stay was amazing! I loved the food, especially at lunch and the view was superb. Just a couple tips:
1. The hotel did not supply a toothbrush/toothpaste or lotion. Bring them yourself!
2. If you plan to be staying at the hotel a lot during the day, make sure you ask not to be on the 4th floor. The restaurant/bar was right above me and I could often hear the noise of setting up. I was gone for most of the day so this didn’t bother me at all.
3. No elevator! Like most boutique hotels, there is only a lift for luggage. Be prepared to walk.

Overall, I had a wonderful time. Service was amazing and the food was delicious. Highly recommended.

I brought my mom and dad an executive studio for their vacation. They love the \"million dollar view\" right across from Wat Arun. Customer service is superb for breakfast as well as house cleaning. Within walking distance to multiple famous temples in Bangkok is a plus! Book here you won't be disappointed. The only downside is limited parking. If you bring a car, please call hotel staff in advance for parking accommodation.

Wow, if you're after a hotel with a view, this is the place. The view from our room on the second floor was as you can see in the images published. We were shocked at the amazing view when we were shown to our room, and I can imagine the views from the higher up rooms are even more stunning.

This hotel is a 1 minute walk from the The Grand Palace and the shortest possible ferry ride in Bangkok to Wat Arun. For sightseeing the location is second to none.

The staff were incredibly friendly and went above and beyond to ensure we were well looked after. Arranging taxis for us and even carrying our bags to the end of the street to the taxi when we were departing.

The hotel bar has incredible views of Wat Arun, and also of the Grand Palace. Drinks and food were both very good, and at a reasonable rate, considering the location.

Rooms were comfy, modern and clean. Beds slightly hard, but I wouldn't let that put you off. I would highly recommend and definitely stay again.

The hotel room was amazing. We had to walk up quite a few stairs to get there but it was worth it. The shower was SPECTACULAR. Everything was nice, clean, and well done. The surrounding area was not as nice, you had to turn down an alley to get to the door. But once inside, the location didn't even matter. The Riverview was amazing as well. The staff went above and beyond to accommodate our needs. Well worth it. I'd absolutely stay here 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!!

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.
