One of the best things about this hotel is that its a constant reminder that you are, in fact, in Bangkok. It is ideally located right on the Chao Phraya River, a stones throw from Phra Sumen (the old city fortress), opposite local restaurants, shops and bars and only a short stroll from the hustle and bustle of Khao San Road.

It is in fact a fairly peaceful spot that provides a nice and well needed oasis amidst fast-paced city life. The staff are very attentive and have plenty of smiles for all the guests whilst dark wooden furniture, splashes of crisp white in the walls, candles and fresh flowers create a modern-Thai-chic ambience.

The hotel has 68 contemporary rooms most with private balconies, some with great views of the river. The beds are large and comfortable; the bathrooms well stocked and spacious. A small but functional swimming pool overlooks the river, with sun loungers and seating for poolside relaxation at the peak of the heat. There is also a well equipped gym on the 3rd floor.

The river front restaurant offers a good range of Thai, Asian and European food in a classy setting. Breakfast is buffet style and can be eaten inside the restaurant or out on the patio by the pool. The Mezzanine Bar on the second floor is a lovely spot to enjoy a drink in the evening, with stunning views of the river.

As if all of this wasn't enough, this hotel is also fantastic value for money; truly an undiscovered gem in the heart of Bangkok.

Superior - This is what we would describe as our standard category. These will be decent 3/4* hotels providing a really good level of service. We would generally expect them to be providing a little something extra, in terms of character, guest experience or facilities too.

Customer Feedback
We arrived back in the UK at 7.00 this morning and I couldn’t wait to thank you for organising such a fabulous holiday for us! Everything went so smoothly and we were really impressed with the quality and style of the hotels you chose for us, the convenient locations, and the local services - absolutely First Class! We had some wonderful food, did some great activities and we particularly enjoyed the Elephant Day which was something we shall remember for the rest of our lives. Also we really enjoyed the trip to the River Kwai and the amazing River Kwai Resotel. I shall certainly recommend your company to anyone who is considering a holiday in South East Asia – thank you again!

- Jane, Mike and Kate

Isaan Province has Angkor era temples to compare with those in Cambodia itself but are far less busy.

I just wanted to send an email to thank you for organising such a wonderful trip and making booking and going on our honeymoon such a trouble free experience. From the moment we decided to go through you I have found you helpful, knowledgeable and accommodating. We found that we didn’t have to worry about anything in the run up or whilst on our honeymoon...... I have already started recommending you to family and friends. Excellent company and excellent service.
