Chatrium Hotel Riverside Bangkok

4.0 More like a 4 star hotel

We had a pleasant stay at this hotel. It was a good location with a 7 eleven just down the street. The room itself was huge. The bed was comfortable, but the decor a bit outdated. The bathroom was definitely in need to be remodeled, and the room wasn’t super clean when we checked in. Check in process was easy and we were allowed to get in our room early. Overall, I would recommend this hotel for the pool, breakfast and location of the property.

Khaosan Palace Hotel

1.0 Horrible location to stay at night.

Khaosan palace hotel would be the worst place in Bangkok especially at night. It's located on Khaosan road. This street turns into a crazy loud club at night till 3am. You will hear super loud music and people's scream in your room as if you are standing in the middle of a club. I booked 3 nights but right after the first night, I had to cancel the rest two night even though I had to give up the fee that I'd paid for the room. I couldn't bear the craziness of the night. Moreover, the room was very small that I barely had a space to store my luggages. The hotel or travelicity.com should put a warnning message on the online hotel introduction page about the street's information. If you want to have a crazy nightout right infront of your hotel, this is the place you should book.

Shangri-la Bangkok

5.0 Luxury hotel on the river

My hotel stay at Shangri-La Bangkok was wonderful! It was my husband's birthday, so they upgraded us to an extravagant suite. We stayed in the Krungthep wing which comes with extra luxuries such as free drinks and canapes during happy hour. The room, the view and the staff were great! The location was also very good. We took a water taxi to the Grand Palace/Reclining Buddha/Emerald Buddha/Wat Arun. The train station is also within a 5 minute walk from the hotel. We walked to a great local Thai restaurant called Baan Phad Thai, then walked to the Sky Bar (Lebua, where Hangover 2 was fimed). It had a spectacular view, drinks are expensive but you do not have to pay to go up. My only complaint was that the bed seemed old and it was not very comfortable. Otherwise, it was a great experience I would definitely recommend.

5.0 Great location next to Lumpini park

We spent two days and it's location made every activity easy to get to. MRT is across the street in the Lumpini park and street market and mall next door. Loved our stay.
