The Siam is a fabulous choice if you’re looking for a unique and luxurious riverside stay in Bangkok.
This high-end hotel blends Bill Bensley’s signature design flair with a beautiful balance of Thai Colonial elegance and Art Deco style. It’s a genuinely distinctive, one-of-a-kind hotel in the capital.
The sights of the city are just a hop, skip and a jump away from the Siam’s private boat pier.
As the location is a little further upstream than most other hotels, we particularly recommend it for visitors who want to enjoy the city at a leisurely pace from a less “high rise” setting than the norm.
We feel it’s worth staying at the Siam for at least 4 nights to allow ample time to take it all in, as well as the city on your doorstep.
For a hotel with only a small amount of rooms, The Siam offers an impressive range of eateries and facilities. The Thai Restaurant Chon doubles up as a fantastic cooking school so guests can learn a few tricks of the trade. The hotel has an impressive wellness spa called Opium and an excellent riverside swimming pool. Sumptuous afternoon tea can be taken in Café Cha on Saturday and Sunday afternoons and you can sip cocktails whenever you’d like at the riverside bar.
The Rooms
The suites range from the 16 Siam Suites with king-sized beds, deep bathtubs and spacious living rooms to the intimate Riverside Pool Villas with internal gardens and open-air terraces.
Every room at The Siam comes with your own personal butler.
For the ultimate experience, you can stay in one of four traditional Thai teakwood houses that were originally sourced by the famous silk tycoon Jim Thompson and socialite Connie Mangskau. Legend has it that Connie entertained the likes of Jackie Kennedy and Roger Moore in these houses!
