Virgin rating

The hotel

Overlooking the busy Chao Phraya River, this hotel is the place to be in Bangkok where you can spend hot days enjoying the riverside breeze but with many of Bangkok's famous landmarks just a stone’s throw away. An adjoining city pier offers complimentary shuttle boat rides to the nearest Skytrain station which provides easy access to the rest of the city. All rooms at the Royal Orchid Sheraton have a river view where you can enjoy watching the hustle and bustle of local life during the day and boats all lit up at night. Enjoy a good range of leisure facilities too, including a freeform swimming pool and Jacuzzi in tropical riverside gardens, a second lap pool, kids' pool, tennis court and an impressive spa. The hotel offers an array of cuisines in their four restaurants, including modern Italian cuisine, barbecue grill, international restaurant and of course a traditional Thai – quite a choice!

Hotel doesn’t honor Titanium benefits. I’m trying to use 48-hour Availability guarantee and the hotel is refusing. Why stay loyal to a brand if the hotel will not hold up their end of the loyalty bargain. I have stayed here several times before and it’s been fantastic but their treatment to loyal customers is shameful.

A special mention to Nimit who looked after us very well and gave us great recommendations including a boat trip around the river. Would definitely stay here again when we return to Bangkok.

Great river view room, throughly cleaned every day. Variety of dishes offered at breakfast. Based in the city centre and near the ferry harbour easily accessible from all tourist places and shopping malls. Loved Thara Thong restaurant’s traditional Thai music, dance and cultural atmosphere.
