I recently contacted the hotel to arrange an event for a very special occasion. I live in Bangkok and called a couple of days ahead to set the appointment. I was told the date for the event I was looking at was not available but the previous night would be. As I was keen on the place for the event,... More

Charming hotel with excellent service and great location. Perfect for those who want to stay away from the growds and still be at the heart of the main tourist attractions. If it wasn't for this hotel our experience of Bangkok would have been completely different. This hotel allowed us to switch off from the hustle and bustle on the streets... More

Chakrabongse used to have no sign on the gate - it was very hard to find. I noticed on my second visit here that they now have a sign - things are changing! There's a lot of history to Chakrabongse which you'll find on their website. The story is fascinating in itself. Chakrabongse is unique in Bangkok - a royal... More

We stayed two nights here in late july 2011. It's a really special place with tons of character but it's not for everyone. It's not a full service hotel, the river view room has little configuration quirks (like the two big steps down from the bedroom into the bathroom and the steep shallow steps that you walk up to get...

We spent a most enjoyable three nights in the Riverview villa. Some highlights: 1. Our lodging included an enclosed veranda, a sitting room with desk, bedroom, kitchenette, bathroom. The veranda proved to be an ideal place to relax and watch the monsoon thunderstorms. In fact, it is hard to not to be pretty laid back as soon as you set... More

Amidst the crowds and chaos of bustling Bangkok lies this gem of a hotel. Situated by the Chao Praya river, The Chakrabongse Villas has one of the best views of Wat Arun. I chose this hotel based on recommendations from several guide books plus the location was an ideal jump off point to all the main tourist attractions of Bangkok... More

We came to Chakrabongse for the last two days after our super relaxing holiday on Koh Kood - adjusting to Bangkok would be hard but this little extra treat made it a super end to a great holiday. Its a stunning location on the edge of the river, with beautifully kept gardens and viewing platforms from which you can see... More

Chakrabongse Villas is the best hotel in Bangkok! We could not be more pleased and impressed with our experience at this hotel. We traveled to Thailand for our honeymoon, and Chakrabongse Villas was our hotel choice for our Bangkok stay, and we cannot say enough about this facility. The highlights: 1. The management - in one word: WOW. The management... More

I couldn't recommend this place more. It's right on the river, walking distance to the major temples, and superb helpful service. We were here on a business trip with sometime for leisure. They arranged their long-tailed boat for us to ride through the small canals, Arun temple, the Royal Barges, and dropped us off for shopping at River City. In... More
