The arranged a taxi from the airport to the hotel, which is great service when you are tired from a long flight. The room was comfortable and very clean. for breakfast you could choose between Thai breakfast and... More

My brother and I stayed here in April 2012 and were very happy with our experience. The staff was very friendly and helpful. They helped me catch a taxi to take me to the train station when I was going to pick up my brother. They gave great tips on everything from how to avoid getting scammed to appropriate clothing...

Aurum The River Place is a great find, tucked back in an alley near the main attractions yet somehow still away from the craziness of downtown. My wife and I have stayed here a couple of times, and the staff is always friendly, the prices are great for such an ideal location and you are close enough to the river... More

And to read all these positive reviews, which exactly reflect my feelings about Aurum. Jin remains a wonderful, warm hostess. The hotel is kept in tip-top shape, really comfortable and nearly luxurious. The proximity to the great (and noisy) Chao Praya River is captivating every day, especially if you have a river view, but it's right there at breakfast too.... More

I could not believe how close we were to the Reclining Buda, Palace, Wat Arun, and right next to the river. The owner who went to the university in San Diego showed us the real meaning of the word "hospitality" She gave us advice on where to eat. Close and very very cheap. Also, she set up a river boat...

On the riverside, in a tiny street the Aurim hotel serves breakfast and lunch on the terrace facing the river (it unfortunately closes at 8pm). A great thanks to Mee and Jin for all their help concerning tips to visit and how to deal with tuk-tuk and cabs. I'll never forget their kindness! You might find it a bit noisy... More

We were in Bangkok for only two days and wanted to make the most of it, without dealing with traffic and hopefully beating at least some of the tourist crowds. This hotel was a perfect choice. Wat Pho (Temple of Reclining Buddha) is literally across the road, the Royal Palace is a 5-10 minute walk. Same for the ferry to... More

This hotel is a gem - we got a room with a view (not all rooms have river views)- with a balcony and french doors. The decor is classic contemporary. The manager/owner is the warmest, friendliest host we have met. She welcomes you warmly, as if to her own home. Also the best concierge service I have seen - she... More
