Anantara Riverside Bangkok Resort

We chose this beautiful hotel for our second visit to Bangkok. It is away from the chaos of the city center but 20 minutes away from Iconsiam with the river shuttle service provided by the hotel. We stayed for 5 nights, from the moment we entered the hotel, the professional and friendly approach of the hotel staff, they find solutions to every question or need immediately. Our room was very comfortable and had all the comforts. The breakfast buffet was very rich, the restaurants with alternative dinner options offer Thai and international cuisine. The spa and wellness section is very well-equipped and professional. We applied IV drip treatment under the supervision of a doctor after a long flight. It has a magnificent garden.

Outstanding hotel. Staff are so friendly and attentive. Facilities in room were definitely 5* turn down service was very high standard. Breakfast buffet was vast. Had gluten free section with cereals, breads, muffins and energy bars. Plenty of options for food and drink. Cocktails were really good. Shuttle boat such a fantastic amenity to have provided.

If I could award this hotel 4.5 stars I would. So many excellent details and a really chilled atmosphere, beautifully designed, and the staff? Amazing! Nothing is too much trouble, and they were all incredibly professional while maintaining that typically Thai upbeat positivity. The only downsides are that the pool and pool area are too small to comfortably cater for the number of guests, and the hotel’s location can is so far out of town, and on the opposite bank of the river to where nearly all of the ‘must visit’ places are. Yes, the free river shuttle is a fabulous benefit, but the boat journey takes 20-30 mins and terminates a further 30-40 minutes walk away from the city’s best highlights, so you’ll spend a large chunk of your time in transit. Recommended, but with some slight reservations.

My husband and I enjoyed our stay at the Anantara Riverside during our honeymoon! Spacious rooms, friendly staff, and very reasonably priced. The breakfast buffet is out of this world. We loved the free shuttle boat, too!

This was probably one of the nicest hotels I've ever stayed at! It was amazing! (づ> v <)づ♡ The ambience? Gorgeous! Many elephant statues, very clean, aesthetic architecture, comfortable rooms (although I recommend turning the heating up a bit, the first night we were freezing xD) The Service? Reliable and kind <3 The rooms? Always nice and tidy, bonus points for their adorable towel elephants (they absolutely reminded me of my comfort stuffed animal) ⊹₊⟡⋆ The food? Pretty delicious and I'm a picky eater 😅 The massage? Absolutely a must, Joy was so sweet! Yes Joy is a person, she was so friendly! \ (•◡•) / Breakfast? I think it's worth it and I usually never eat breakfast, here at the Anantara... I absolutely did. We also met some other very kind people, Gift and Meen Kup made our last evening, they were so lovely! We always smiled when we saw eachother (˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶) We even got a special drink that evening!! This hotel is totally worth it ٩(^ᗜ^ )و ´- I love this place ! ♡

The service and staff at this hotel are what truly make it exceptional. They are incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, offering a level of hospitality that stands out compared to many other hotels in Thailand. While the rooms felt a bit outdated, the food, service, activities, and the overall stunning hotel grounds were excellent. Highly recommend!

Fantastic stay in Bangkok in beautiful hotel next to the river. Excellent room and comfortable beds with balcony. Great breakfast with extensive eastern and western choices in setting right by the river. Relaxing and large garden and pool area. Also very nice to have the shuttle boat to the central Bangkok

Stayed in this hotel for three nights as a stop off before heading onto the islands.||It’s a big hotel, with a colonial style - very clean and well maintained. The staff are all lovely and very accommodating.||The bedroom we stayed in was a little dated and the bath tub quite difficult to get out of (if you are a bit older /struggle with mobility you would need to sit to get out) no seating area to do your hair or make up (standing in the bathroom only) and no full length mirror - but this may just be the room we got. Beds and pillows are super comfortable! ||We were recommended this hotel by trailfinders but if you are here for a short stay and want to see some of the sights it is quite far away - they offer a ferry service to two main ports (sathorn and iconsiam) which is about a 20min boat ride. To see any of the main attractions it is then another boat ride ~25min to the grand palace - so quite a bit of traversing. Alternatively you could get a taxi but traffic can be crazy. If you are only there for a short time and want to see the sights, I would recommend staying a little closer (surprised trailfinders recommended this one for us)||The breakfast was good but very busy but we did go down a bit later in the morning. We stayed over NYE and it was all a little strange - every bar seemed to be shut or for a private party - so I assume this isn’t normally the case.||We ate at trader vics for NYE and it was just ok - all of the fish we had was overcooked which was disappointing. ||Didn’t stay at the pool but looked nice but busy from early in the morning
