The shangri la is a great place to settle yourself while visiting Bangkok. It's right on the river, so try to request a room on one of the higher floors with a balcony if you can. Views are fantastic. It's also a 5-7 minute walk to one of the elevated train lines as well as the tourist and commuter boats... More

For me, this is one of the best hotels in the world. Faultless attention to detail in accommodating guests in every way. I'd stay here on business or with my family any time. I stayed in the Krungthep Wing and floated between it and the main hotel as I liked. My stay included a butler, free airport transfer, complimentary drinks... More

The Shangr-La lived up to it's reputation and delivered a top notch experience for our vacation in Bangkok. It has great location (accessible to river transport and BTS) and the pool and restaurants a wonderful refuge.

stayed here for 3 nights for a business conference in May. a very comfy room, bed, amenities, and breakfast buffet was included. service was perfect for all the big conference rooms, meals, breaks, etc. the hotel is well located right on the river, and my room overlooked all the action on the river. we also took the hotel's dinner cruise...

The service here is generally excellent with pleasant and polite staff at reception and in the lounge area offering a variety of good quality complimentry refreshments and snacks. The only criticism is really... More

When we were planning our trip to Bangkok, we knew we wanted to stay along the Chao Phraya river. We also knew we wanted a hotel that would be a comforting retreat from the heat and bustle of Bangkok. We were trying to decide between the Mandarin Oriental next door or Shangri-La. While the Mandarin Oriental is the ultimate in... More

What a superb hotel. Lovely room facing the river, what more could one want. It was my husbands birthday the day we arrived and the most yummy cake was delievered almost as soon as we arrived plus they gave us an upgraded room. We have never seen breakfasts like the ones here, just divine and to sit facing the river... More

We stay at Shangri-La Hotels quite extensively and lap-up the pampering that we receive from their professional staff. For several days in January we were most pleased with the hospitality provided in the Krungthep Wing of the Shangri-La, Bangkok - from go to whoa!.. it truly is a wonderful experience. In what is usual at a Shangri-La, service throughout the... More
