“This intimate hotel, set on the banks of the Chao Praya River, is an oasis of calm in the busy city. Rooms are decorated in a traditional Thai style and feature either mezzanines or private terraces. The riverside restaurant and bar is an ideal spot for watching the magnificent sunsets.”

Arun Residence

A romantic, affordable hotel on the banks of the Chao Praya River, near Wat Prak Kaew and the Grand Palace. Rooms are large, there’s a lovely riverside restaurant – sitting on its patio and watching the light fade over the river is one of the great Bangkok experiences – and the staff are polite and accommodating.
