Me and my Wife visited this hotel for the city leg of our Thailand trip and used it as our base to tick off the main tourist attractions in Bangkok. We stayed for 5 nights on a bed and breakfast basis as we planned to eat out every day so there was no need to include meals. The location of the hotel was a 30-minute walk south of China Town and it was on the banks of the Chao Phraya River with excellent views of the city. The only downside of this location was that it was a 15-minute walk north to the Metro Blue Line and south to the Green Line. However, being on the riverside, the Chao Phraya Express Boat pier was right outside the hotel, and they offered a free shuttle boat to the Saphan Taksin station (Green line). The room we went for was the Deluxe Guest Room which had river views which paid dividends in the morning when the sun rose. The room was spacious with all the modern touches of a 5-star hotel, and what you see on the website is what you get. The service staff cleaned the room every day, and it was very tidy so I cannot pick a fault. As we were not planning to use the room that much due to spending all day and evening out in Bangkok sightseeing it was perfect for that purpose. The food and drink on offer were excellent, with the breakfast buffet being one of the best we have ever had. There were eastern and western cuisine offerings with a spacious dining hall. Freshly made dishes were available, and if you wanted it, there was local fare section which changed daily. For us, this was spot on as we were able to have a decent breakfast before venturing out and needing to search for somewhere good in the mornings. The service was fantastic, when people talk about Thai hospitality being the best in the world, the staff here proved it. They did not put a foot wrong and made you feel welcome, were always polite, and offered help whenever you needed it. Overall, I loved this hotel but only wished it were closer the metro stations, but they did offer a shuttle boat service. That aside, I would recommend this hotel, and it would be wise to get breakfast included. I only wish we had more time so we could use the pools, have an evening meal there, and just enjoyed the other activities that the hotel organise. A magnificent 5-star hotel, and worth the money!!!!

It is always a true pleasure to return to the Sheraton Royal Orchid Riverside Hotel in Bangkok. Every stay reminds me why this property remains one of my absolute favourites. For me, this hotel enjoys the finest location in Bangkok. Although it is perfectly situated in the heart of the city, it offers a remarkably peaceful atmosphere on the banks of the Chao Phraya River. The beautiful tropical gardens and magnificent swimming pool make you forget that you are in one of the world’s busiest and most vibrant capitals. The unique hotel having 2 outdoor pools One of the hotel’s most unique features is its visionary architecture. When it was designed in the 1980s, the architect had the brilliant idea of orienting every guest room towards the river, allowing each room to enjoy a truly spectacular view. This design that still feels exceptional today. Another reason I continue to choose this hotel year after year is the outstanding professionalism of every member of the team. The staff are genuinely kind, attentive, and always willing to go the extra mile to ensure every guest feels welcomed and cared for. This year, I had the pleasure of meeting the new General Manager, Mr. Kristian Petersen. He is an exceptional leader who personally takes the time to meet guests, making sure they are comfortable and enjoying their stay. His genuine warmth, accessibility, and attention to detail are truly remarkable. It is easy to understand why every department delivers such an exceptional level of service: Mr. Petersen leads by example. His passion for hospitality and his sincere care for guests inspire his entire team to provide outstanding service every single day. I would also like to congratulate the housekeeping team for their exceptional work. The guest rooms are maintained to the highest standards, and the cleanliness throughout the entire hotel is simply impeccable. For anyone planning a stay, I highly recommend booking an Executive Suite. They are wonderfully spacious, beautifully appointed, extremely comfortable, and include access to the Executive Lounge. The suites located on the higher floors offer truly breathtaking views, both during the day and after nightfall. It is always with great pleasure that I find myself lingering a little longer in my suite, simply taking the time to admire this truly spectacular panorama. As someone who travels extensively around the world, I can honestly say that the Executive Lounge at the Sheraton Royal Orchid ranks among the very best I have experienced. The breakfast selection is excellent, while the evening Happy Hour offers an outstanding variety of delicious dishes and premium beverages, all beautifully prepared and presented by the talented culinary team. I also had the pleasure of meeting the Executive Chef, Mr. Marco Cammarata His extensive experience is immediately evident, but what impressed me even more was his genuine dedication to his guests. He regularly visits the restaurants to ensure everyone is enjoying their dining experience and is always happy to ask whether he can prepare something special. His passion for excellence is reflected in every meal. I strongly recommend dining at Giorgio Restaurant , where authentic Italian cuisine is prepared using high-quality ingredients imported directly from Italy. Every dish is beautifully crafted and absolutely delicious. The Thai restaurant is equally outstanding and offers an authentic culinary experience that should not be missed. Finally, I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to everyone who made my stay so memorable. Every member of the team looked after us with extraordinary kindness and professionalism, making us feel genuinely valued throughout our visit. Special thanks to CHEF senior sous chef CHARIAT KANJANA Lounge supervisor JIRAPONG Yusron Phanvasa Pornchai BUNYANS PIKULKAEW PHATCHATHAKORN My sincere thanks once again to Mr. Kristian Petersen and every member of his wonderful team for making our stay truly unforgettable. I cannot wait to return.
