This hotel has the best view from our balcony and hotel rooftop. It’s within walking distance to Grand Palace, Wat Pho, flowers market, 3 minutes ferry to Wat Arun. Hotel staff are very friendly and thoughtful. The only drawback is that the room and shower is small. However I would recommend to all my friends because its location, view and friendly staff. Thanks to their excellent service, we had a wonderful time.
