An adjoining city pier offers complimentary shuttle boat rides to the nearest Skytrain station which provides easy access to the rest of the city. All rooms at the Royal Orchid Sheraton have a river view where you can enjoy watching the hustle and bustle of local life during the day and boats all lit up at night.

The hotel offers an array of cuisines in their four restaurants, including modern Italian cuisine, barbecue grill, international restaurant and of course a traditional Thai – quite a choice!

In the lounge Pornchai behind the bar truly went above and beyond with his service during my stay.

BEST hotel in Bangkok! Amazing in everyway!

Perfect location! Amazing views! Mouthwatering breakfast buffet!
Bangkok's traffic is gridlock, so location is a priority when choosing a hotel. With the river location you are able to ferry to various areas.
We loved everything about this hotel - we are frequent travels and call Chicago home - and HIGHLY recommend it.

Perfect location! Amazing views! Mouthwatering breakfast buffet!
Bangkok's traffic is gridlock, so location is a priority when choosing a hotel. With the river location you are able to ferry to various areas.
We loved everything about this hotel - we are frequent travels and call Chicago home - and HIGHLY recommend it.
The breakfast buffet is truly a gem! The two pools were a joy after a day of sightseeing. And the restaurants and bars were delightful.
ICONSIAM is right across the river and the Royal Orchid has their own ferry.
Vacay Tip - if you love Jim Thompson silks (I do!) there is an outlet!!! Go to the Jim Thompson house/museum first and then to the outlet.
