Guest Reviews

• kps7987 (10/5): Beautiful view - You stay here for the view of Wat Arun. We stayed in a 3rd floor room with Wet Arun view and balcony. The room was very nice and updated. It was also very clean. There is no elevator but staff carried our bags up the stairs. The hallway is older but we were not staying in the hallway so it doesn't matter because once in the room it was updated and very nice. Breakfast was included and sufficient. I would recommend to others if looking for this experience. Also close to Palace and Reclining Buddha and we took a cheap tuktuk to other attractions.
• 598MarieM (8/5): Mesmerizing View of Wat Arun, especially at sunset - The location is great. I will list all the pros first. 1. best view of Wat Arun on one side of the hotel and the Grand Royal Palace on the opposite side 2. Roof top bar is cozy and wait staff are wonderful 3. Rooms are clean as is the bathroom 4. The sheets and the duvet are the silkiest and softest of any hotel we have stayed at. we would stay again just because the sheets were that great! We have stayed at high end luxury hotels and resorts with scratchy sheets. Sala Arun has the best comfy bed and best sheets and duvet ever. We were in room 801 so I do not know if all rooms have the same quality bed 5. Breakfast inckudes egg choice or Asian Boiled rice with chicken or shrimp...both delicious choices though the buffet has only two boxed cereal choices plus fresh fruit, juices, and pain au chocolate and croissants. 6. View rooms are more expensive, we chose not to have a good view as we could enjoy it on the roof Cons: 1. Stairs, no lift. We do not mind, I am 75 and I like stairs, exercise to me 2. TV we had the staff show us how to get channels, but we were not able to get TV channels later 3. The bar manager or the man who seemed to be the bar manager on the roof, had a very very loud voice and he made the evenings happy hour UNHAPPY and Unromantic, Staff were wonderful but in Thai culture, staff cannot send a complaint to a manager, especially if the manager IS the complaint. So we enjoyed one evening of our multiple day stay at this roof top bar and then we went next door to the other roof top bar with not as perfect a view of Wat Arun, but very good, because it was quiet and romantic, In fact, if you sat closer to the wall of the Sala Arun roof top bar, you could hear that man's loud voice!!!
• angiec43 (2/5): Stink! - Room is old small smell. Pipes is stink. Customer service hard to contact . Price is 4 star but service is very poor. Not recommended . You Will disappointed . Management is not professional. I asked them to solve problem pipes but they don’t answer anything . I swear will not come again buy Sala Arun
• Lumpsy (6/5): Great location, but a little tired - This hotel has a great location, close to Grand Palace and Wat Pho (home of the reclining Buddha) and overlooks the river and Wat Arun. The breakfast was good and on a terrace by the river, and the Eagles nest bar was very popular, but very expensive! The next door hotel had a nicer rooftop bar and was much cheaper. The room was comfortable, but starting to look tired. The staff were helpful when we had no hot water and fixed it quickly.
• Sylm_2000 (6/5): Best view, poor service - This hotel serves an amazing view of wat Arun however the service and quality require more to be done. The sunrise from the room is just amazing and the rooms are okay kitted with looking tired and desperately needing refreshing. No breakfast included however the restaurant on the ground floor is pretty decent. Staff were very transactional as asked to contact booking.com for the problems regarding incorrect room being allocated (not as described in the pictures)
• Jom-Parit (10/5): Start the trip when you are in Bangkok! - I expect to bring my parents to stay and enjoy view opposite Wat Arun. It’s brought first night impression to our family. My children really enjoy the stay. We stay in Deluxe Room which has amazing view as we expected. Nothing you need more. Staff are so gentle and helpful. Price is acceptable. Eagle’s Nezt Bar has stunning view and drink options. Once you visit Bangkok, I recommend starting the stay at this location.
• TheresaLegler (10/5): Exactly like in the pictures - I came there for the view and reading previous reviews I expected the place to be noisy. I chose a river facing room which was clean and had a small balcony. The first night someone in the room above was super loud, luckily I only experienced this in the first night. Can be noisy if the people above you like to jump around. The other nights were calm, also didn’t hear much of the rooftop bar. Just when a group of drunk tourists went down I could hear anything, once. So it wasn’t as loud as anticipated and I liked the hotel. Staff was friendly too. Not sure if it’s due to currently lower numbers of tourists but around the hotel there’s not much to do, no bars etc (there’s grand palace etc, plenty of daytime activities, but no nightlife). If you happen to come back from a late massage .. after 10 am restaurants are closed. There’s also no street food at that time. Recommend this place for a few nights, the view is incredible.
• tayo_jang (4/5): 4 star view but not a service - I don’t see anything that capable to claim as 4 stars except the view. Gorgeous view but not a service. First when you book the room make sure you see the river or the temple asking them exact view you want to see otherwise you may wasting your money to see the tree blocking your view, secondly the blind not fully close (it isn’t cover the door) so when you turn the light on at night, ppl may can see you naked in your room. Third, I think if they can fix staff service mind would be a lot better. I prefer to stay in a cozy room like your asian style grandmom’s house so I chose this hotel but not a first impression since unwelcoming greeting staff in the fist place. Just try if you think I am too picky or I am.
• michaeldA6862OX (4/5): You pay for the view and get nothing else - You get a nice view from your tiny ledge of a balcony but little else. The rooms are tiny and dated, the bathroom shower was weak. The corridors leading to the rooms smelt like damp dog. Very overpriced for what you get and not a great area of Bangkok for evening entertainment. The icing on the cake was when we went to the roof top bar for some drinks. We were there ten minutes before advertised opening time and there was two free tables by the edge. However a empty bottle of wine had been placed on one and a handbag on the other. We approached the table with the empty bottle of wine on it and the man shouted at us ‘no no this is reserved for the boss’ We sat on another table and he brought us the menus. I gave him the tickets for our complimentary drinks as hotel guest and he muttered ‘complimentary drinks’ and walked off. We would have stayed and had a few overpriced drinks if we didn’t get treated to like that but I decided not to give this place anymore of my money. Don’t bother, it’s a rip off, there are far better and cheaper places to stay in Bangkok and you can easily get to all the attractions in this area during the day anyway. The only saving grace was being able to relax on the balcony with some beers from 7:11 with the same view as the pretentious bar upstairs. I would stay here again for that, if they dropped their prices by about 50%.
• Verified traveler (6/5): ワットアルンの眺望は抜群だけど・・ - チャオプラヤー川沿いでワットアルンの目の前に建つホテルということで３泊しました。確かに部屋から見るワットアルンの眺望は抜群！朝日を浴びる姿や夕日に染まるワットアルンを部屋やバルコニーからたっぷり眺められるのは贅沢の一言。もちとん夜のライトアップも素晴らしいです。その上、ワットポーもホテルのすぐ裏。また2019年秋にMRTブルーラインが延伸したおかげで、最寄駅サナーム チャイ駅からも徒歩10分とアクセスも便利です。近年この周辺は開発が進み、おしゃれなレストランやカフェが進出しているのも嬉しい点です。 ただ、このホテルはそれに取り残されたように薄暗い路地の先にあり、木造のため老朽化が激しく、いかにもしょぼい安宿の雰囲気。部屋にこれといって特徴はなく、バスタブはなしでシャワーのみ。ホテルのレセプションは、昔のタバコ屋みたいなスペースに１人が常駐しているだけで、セキュリティに一抹の不安あり。それでもスタッフは気さくで親切で好感は持てます。朝食はホテル1階のレストランで、バルコニー席からワットアルンを見ながらいただけます。しかし種類が少なすぎ。コーヒーとクロワッサンは美味しいけど、オーダーで作ってもらう卵料理やパンケーキやワッフルはイマイチです。5Fにはルーフトップバー"Eagle Nest"があり、ここからのワットアルンの眺めも素晴らしいですが、そこに行く階段がホテルと共用なので、部屋にいるとお客さんの足音がよく聞こえます。こじんまりとした古いB&Bタイプのなので、居心地はあまり良くありませんが、それを上回る眺望の良さはあるので、割り切って泊まるのもアリかと思います。
• Sandra (10/5): Perfect Location - The view out our window of Wat Arun and the Chao Phraya River was beautiful. Having breakfast each morning outside by the river was lovely. The staff was great and made our stay very comfortable. So much to see including The Grand Palace was in walking distance!
• JUNG EUN (6/5): So so - View and the location was good. However, when I arrived at the hotel at 2:00 A.M. I had to call the staff because the front desk was empty, and the staff didn't pick up the phone until I call him for 3 times. I was afraid I could sleep in the street that night. Furthermore, because of the rooftop and the thin wall, there were loud noises all night. I can't recommend this hotel unless you should see the Wat Arun through the window.
• Verified traveler (8/5): 전체적으로 만족합니다. - 전체적인 서비스는 만족스러웠으나, 조식을 먹는데 옆에서 눈치주듯 계속 빗자루질을 합니다. 시간은 9시 쯤이었고, 조식마감은 10시였습니다. 왓아룬 뷰는 기대대로 너무나 좋았습니다.
• Sophie (8/5): - 왓아룬 뷰는 나무가 가려져있어 아쉬웠으나 발코니가 있어 괜찮았다. 2층이라 어렵지않게 이동할 수 있었다. 열쇠를 가지고 다녀야하는 불편함이 있고, 방문이 너무 낡아서 문이 잠겨있어도 꽝! 발로차면 열릴 것 같았다.(물론 그런일은 없고 그런일이 있더라도 방음이 잘 안돼서 옆집, 윗집, 아랫집에서도 달려와줄 것 같다) 모기가 많아 모기랑 눈치싸움하면서 방에 잽싸게 들어가야함. 기본적으로 차려진 조식은 별로 없으나 계란요리, 와플 등 이외에도 팟타이(Pad Thai), 볶음밥(Fried rice) 를 선택해서 요리해서 가져다 주는데 아침부터 배불리 먹었음. 맛있었다! 그리고 거기 초코 크로와상같은 빵이 있는데 그것도 입에서 살살녹음. 왕궁, 왓포, 왓아룬 등이랑 굉장히 가깝고 유명한 맛집들이 주변에 있어 편하고 좋았다.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - die Lage war super- frühstück war super - zimmer etwas muffig
• Elizabeth (8/5): - Hotel was clean and we had a gorgeous view from our balcony. It was a little hard to find for the taxi but they called and the person at desk gave directions. It’s down a narrow alley but the room was clean and breakfast was decent. The bed was a little hard. A/C worked great
• Verified traveler (10/5): - I really enjoyed my stay at Sala Arun. A small hotel with a small restaurant and roof top bar. A perfect location for sightseeing, Wat Po and the Royal Palace are a very short walk away. The view from my room of the river and Wat Arun was worth every penny. I travelled on my own and felt very safe here. I would definitely visit again.
• 336Chelsea (8/5): Nice boutique B&b - Look it’s not going to win any awards - but it’s a nice small boutique hotel with lots of charm. Rooms are adequate and clean - and gives you access to the rooftop bar which everyone fights to get a waterfront seat - that itself is worth the look. I’m sure you can find cheaper but I would return - it’s close to many monuments and relatively quiet. Try to avoid the rooms on the 3rd floor - which are directly underneath the rooftop bar!! Breakfast is fine - basic but all that you need. I would return.
• SU (8/5): - 뷰만 보고 간 호텔인데 뷰 진짜 최고 ㅠㅠ 밤에는 무슨 액자 보고있는거 같았어요. 방도 넓고 화장실도 넓고 에어컨도 잘 나와서 좋았습니다. 단점은 루프탑이랑 주변 방에서 소음이 많이 들려요. 소리에 예민하신분들은 비추.. 문 쾅쾅 거리는거랑 뭔지모를 쿵쿵 소리가 계속 들려오고 문이 열쇠키로 열고 잠그는 문이라서 안잠궈두면 열리더라구요 ㅠㅠㅠㅠ
• Jtk (10/5): - The staffs have excellence service mind. The nice view of WAT ARUN, especially night view.
• SFBayAreaTrekker (8/5): A cozy B&B that can easily be missed - Tucked down Soi Ta-tien alley off of Maharat Road you’ll find this humble Bed & Breakfast. The staff is welcoming. Accommodations are on floors 2 through 4 with the Eagle Nest bar on top. Pack only what you are willing to carry – literally, there are no elevators. Once inside the room, you find the room has just enough accommodation to make your stay comfortable. As you look down the balcony, you will see you’re at the edge of the Chao Phraya River, and have a clear view of Wat Arun (Temple of Dawn). The B&B does attempt to go green, but sometimes they will revert to the standard daily changes. The rooms are strictly a place to rest and clean up from a day’s adventure. There is no set up for any interest to catch up on some work, unless you prefer the computer on the lap. To see what type of room you actually get, go direct to their website. Some of the photos on TripAdvisor are from the sister “Residential” establishment. They serve both western and Thai style breakfasts, in addition to a nicely stocked continental breakfast bar. The B&B is in the heart of tourist attraction which can be both a boon for some visitors, and a bane for others. You are in literal walking distance from Wat Pho (Temple of the Reclining Buddha, 700-800 meters from the Grand Palace, a water taxi/ferry from Wat Arun, and many more. You do not have as many “western amenities”, and you are live prey to the scammers. (Read up on the scams in Bangkok – they are real.)
• 이런ㅆ (2/5): - 다리 삐었는데 4층이라길라 2층 돈 더내야한다함 이런거 왜 미리 안써져있음 짜증나게 ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ 그리구 침구커버 일년에 한번씩 갈듯 그리고 직원들 정신상태가다 썩어빠졌음 웰컴티 준다하고 안주고 그랩으로 다음날 택시부르려고 주소 맞는지 물어보는데 표정 띠거움ㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎ여기 안좋다고 알려줘야겠음
• Verified traveler (10/5): - The hotel is close to many attractions. The breakfast was filling and the view of Wat Arun while eating was peaceful. The staff at Sala Arun are simply amazing. I forgot a package behind and they helped me with every step to retrieve the package. I am forever in their debt.
• TequilaPepita (6/5): Go to their restaurant for the view! - Had lunch at Sala Arun with my nephew who was visiting Bangkok. Before a visit to Wat Arun, right across the river from this terrace, we had a light lunch. We order a bitter deck sandwich and a fried noodle with shrimp. The food was average at best and the sticky rice with mango we ordered as dessert was very small. Go there for the View over Wat Arun.
• Na-young (10/5): 부만 보려면강추 - 뷰만보고 간 곳이라 완전 만족 건물은 오래된 느낌 하지만 나름 깔끔함이 느껴짐 수상버스 정류장과 기까워서 좋음 직원들도 친절
• LexRozin (10/5): Beautiful view! - The view from our room (toward Wat Arun) was amazing! Great pad Thai for breakfast (along with Western options) and very conveniently located for Wat Pho (across the street and don’t miss the massage there) and the Palace. Air conditioned!!! A perfect place to stay for a couple nights.
• GOEUN (8/5): 리버뷰는 끝내줍니다 - 다 좋았는데 전자레인지 없고 치약도 없어서.. 치약 편의점에서 사갔어요 뷰는 진짜 끝내줍니다. 이 숙소는 무조건 강가뷰로 예약하세요.
• ZoeMcC123 (6/5): Nice room, nice view, but noisy! - Check in process easy - staff are welcoming and helpful. The room itself is large and lovely including the bathroom which is massive (doesn’t have good lighting though, ladies). Bed comfortable as is the day bed. The view is what we came for (which is stunning), as per most of the travellers on here - and I guess I didn’t really head their advice but where we come from (NZ), if you stay on a riverfront room it’s normally a nice tranquil peaceful experience. The boats are really noisy and I think if the hotel wanted to improve this for guests then double glazing would be a good solution, and would help keep the room cool without much effort. We wore earplugs to sleep and this helped greatly - the breakfast as per other comments is your average fare, nothing special. A nice place but not worth the price in our opinion. Get a drink at a nearby bar and enjoy the same view.
• Verified traveler (8/5): 왓아룬뷰만으로도 완벽한 숙소 - 왓아룬뷰 하나 보고 예약한 호텔이었는데 전체적으로 만족이에요! 직원들도 친절했고 엘리베이터가 없긴하지만 직원분들이 케리어 올려다 주셨어요. 냉장고가 시원하지 않았고 조식은 그저그랬어요. 하지만 아침저녁으로 보는 왓아룬 뷰는예술! 하루종일 타임랩스 찍었는데 대박 영상 얻었어요 ㅎㅎ
• ferdy2019 (8/5): The best hotel view - The view is amazing during the morning, afternoon and evening, and immediately see the beauty of Wat Arun, and around the hotel many culinary locations are quite tasty and relatively inexpensive, the hotel rooms are quite clean, the staff is quite friendly. Thank you
• Verified traveler (6/5): - Overall acceptable given the price and view and free breakfast, It is very near to wat pho and grand palace. Just the it’s an old building and narrow alley to get into
• Bluebelt (8/5): - Approahing alley to the hotel is not so clean or beautifull and it's very hard to imagine a nice hotel. But my room on second floor with a balcony has a fantastic view of the Wat Aroon cross the river. I can walk to the grand palace and to the Wats. I never fotget it all my life.
• CCOfenstein (6/5): Nice B&B - My husband and I stayed here for one night while in Bangkok and it has a spectacular location. However, the photos online definitely make this B&B look a little more fancy and updated than it is in person. Overall - good quality, very nice staff, hard bed, great location, and nice breakfast. Opt for a view of Wat Arun if you can!
• hong,s (4/5): - 구시가지쪽이라 확실히 시내보다는 많이 낡았습니다. 강 바로 옆이라.. 배 지나가는 소리가 무지 시끄러워서 잠을 잘 못자요. 엘레베이타도 없어서 무거운 캐리어 옮기기도 힘들고 .. 호텔 찾아가는 입구는 늦은밤엔 쫌 무섭습니다. 거리에 바퀴벌레도 많고 ㅜㅜ 벌레는 생각보다 없었어요 뷰하나만 딱 좋고 지내고 생활하기엔 낡은 부띠끄 호텔입니다
• Yone (8/5): - いい感じにくたびれた建物ですが、清潔です。 風呂の排水が匂うのと、ルーフトップバーへ上がる螺旋階段が狭くて急で少し危険。 タクシーで向かうとき場所を指示しづらいので、北にあるターティアン市場と指示するとすんなりたどり着けます。
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Mooi zicht op de rivier en een uitstekende ligging voor bezienswaardigheden.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Great location! Does not have an elevator and room can be on any of four floors.
• Cindy (10/5): - It was a fantastic spot to finish our Thai vacation. Alling asleep Looking across at Wat Arun all lite up at night was amazing.
• PamC (10/5): - It’s small and quaint. Perfect location on the river walking distance to several temples and The Palace. Great staff, very clean and felt very safe.
• Kylie (10/5): Cute BnB - This hotel was very cute! We enjoyed being so close to the temples because that’s what we were there for. The view of Wat Arun was awesome from our room. Negatives the bed was very hard and there is no lift. So staying on the top floor comes with a price, walking up those stairs! Also most stores and cafes close very early near by.
• thomas (10/5): World travelers recommended!!! - Great place and location. We've traveled the world using hotels.com, 30 countries,, this is one of the best. Clean, safe, exceed expectations. Highly recommended
• stevencT5124VP (4/5): River View - Small boutique hotel right across the river from Wat Arun. In a great location to hit the top three tourist attractions: The Grand Palace, Wat Po and Wat Arun. Unfortunately though you are in the middle of tourist central. Eating choices geared in that area for tourist. Hotel needs freshing up; a little run down, paint peeling, windows of our room were never cleaned! To see the view, we actually cleaned our windows because we could not stand it. Towels thinning and grey. Bathroom in lobby dirty. Our room was under the roof top bar which on Friday and Saturday night was pretty loud. Breakfast mediocre, no exotic fruits! In Thailand there are so many fruits, what is offered: apples, regular bananas and watermelon. What about papaya, mangos, mangostein, and pomelo??!! Orange juice from a can??? Hotel Roof bar, Eagle Nest, watered down expensive drinks where you have to fight to get a seat while there are those taking hundreds of selfies, while one is trying to enjoy the view. Staff nice but not too informed. Lovely view but would not choose this hotel again.
• Keny (10/5): "WAT" a view!! - Stayed in Lanna room with balcony with view to Wat Arun....absolutely BEAUTIFUL!! The view alone makes this hotel an excellent choice. The bed pretty firm, but they are all firm around Thailand. The kids at the front desk were extremely helpful and friendly. One of them even gave me some of his food so I could taste it...lovely! Breakfast was good with the regular stuff, eggs, bread, fruit, coffee and with a view. The rooftop bar has the lovely view, but that is it....their drinks need improvement and they are not cheap. Overall a wonderful stay.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Nos encantó la vista y limpieza de la habitación. A pesar de estar bajo la terraza, el ruido y ajetreo en ella no nos afectó de ninguna manera.
• jauffretp (8/5): Great restaurant by the river facing Wat Arun - We enjoyed this place very much with our family of 8. Great service, excellent Thai food. We had Tom Kar Kai (coconut soup) which was great. Fantastic view. We came there for lunch but we suspect the view is even greater for dinner. It is also close to the pier and to Wat Pho.
• Tina (4/5): - Fik lovet et værelse med balkon hos Expedia. Men fik det mest usle værelse. Næsten ingen vand kom ud af bruseren. Fik at vide på hotellet, at man skulle bestille ved dem, da de dårlige værelser er Expedia. Endvidere dårligt at skulle betale 300 bath som er ca 60 kr for en øl på deres bar
• Heidyvan (4/5): Not worth the money - We were expecting more. Okay, the view on Wat Arun from our room was spectacular and the staff was very friendly and helpful but that was about it. There a an overall bad smell in the hotel. (including the minibar), The door to the balcony had 'holes' in it so muskitoos and the sound from outside (especially the roof top bar) could come in without a barrier. There was no elevator. The internet says it is a 4 star hotel. Well by no means. 1 or 2 stars maximum. We paid over 600 Euros for 6 nights. There are much better hotel for less money.
• Anna_Bannana629 (8/5): Pleasant stay and breathtaking view of Wat Arun - We stayed here for the last leg of our holidays in Thailand and we loved it! The room was spacious and has a spectacular view of Wat Arun! The staff were very friendly and the breakfast was good. If I can criticise this place, it will be the that it needs to be revamped. The carpet and stairs are a bit tattered and the walls needs a new coat of paint. Aside from that, our room and bathroom was clean and comfortable. Stay here if you want to visit the temples and the Grand Palace. The area is very quiet at night time so not ideal if you want to have a few drinks or a late dinner as most restaurant are closed by 7:30pm.
• David (10/5): Lovely - Great place to stay, in the middle of the old town and very bustling. Lovely view and really good breakfast
• bsn (10/5): - 部屋から見えるアルンが時間によって変わる 贅沢な時間が過ごせるホテル
• Verified traveler (6/5): - Leider kein kühlschrank,nur cooler der lauwarme getränke schafft.... Ein stück seife zum händewaschen ist auch nicht zu bekommen.. Beides mehrfach bemängelt,ausser lächeln nix passiert. Rooftop bar nur ab 5pm und dann immer sofort total überfüllt von touristen die nicht im hotel wohnen.... Keinerlei raucherbereich,obwohl angegeben,nur auf der strasse....
• Christopher (8/5): Lovely small hotel. - Lovely little hotel, friendly and efficient staff. Decent breakfast choice and stunning views. The rooftop bar was a delight with good service. If you want to be close to the Grand Palace and Way Pho this would be ideal, being on the river the air seems to be fresher and cleaner than in some parts of the city. Only downside is no handy links to MRT and Skytrain systems.
• Mike (8/5): - Great location near Grand palace the staff are superb and the room is very nice ...comfy bed and large bathroom, breakkfast is ok the only fault is the noise of visitors in the roof top bar which has excellent views of Wat Arun tramping noisily up down the stairs until midnight I would definately stay again
• Frankie (10/5): - 境觀非常好, 日間大量船隻經過昭拍耶河較嘈。美中不足之處，房間有曱甴及花灑水壓不夠.整體上滿意。一定要住河景房.
• Hyemi (10/5): 또 가고싶어요. - 시설이 아기자기하고, 직원들이 모두 친절하고, 뷰가 너무 멋진 곳!! 리셉션, 루프탑바, 조식레스토랑 직원 모두 친절해서 너무 좋았습니다. 루프탑에 프리드링크 마시러 올라간건데도 자리가 없어서 얘기하니까 한시간후에 오면 자리 마련해주겠다고 해서 편하게 뷰 볼 수 있었어요! 숙소 내 시설도 필요한 것들 다 있고, 아 비누는 없어서 조금 아쉬웠어요. 세면데 수압은 쎈데 샤워실 수압이 낮고 따뜻한 물이 나오다 말다.. 만 빼면 좋아요! 왓포, 왕궁과 가까워서 구경다니기 좋았고, 숙소 바로 앞 골목 homecafe 여기 로컬식당 음식이 너무 맛있어서 더 좋은 기억으로 남아요! 조식이 먹잘 것 없는 뷰페가 아닌, 작은 부페코너와 원하는 음식으로 요리해서 주시는 메인이 있어 든든히 먹을 수 있어 좋았습니다. 4층인데 엘레베이터가 없어서 아쉬웠지만, 종합적으로 보자면 친절함, 아늑함, 뷰 때문에 다시 갈 의향 100.
• JOSHUA (10/5): - We had a terrific time at sala Arun. The unbeatable view of the temple from your bed was perfect for our first time. Staff are friendly. Location is perfect to visit the temples. I highly recommend.
• Travis (10/5): - Great stay! Rooftop bar is amazing with amazing drinks and view.
• takayoshi (8/5): 対岸からワットアルンを見るのが目的の場合は、お部屋から見ることが出来、最高のホテルです。 - 対岸からワットアルンを見るのが目的の場合は、お部屋から見ることが出来、最高のホテルです。但し、リバービューのお部屋の選択が必要です。建屋は年数経過していますが、清潔感が、有り、気持ち良く過ごせました。朝食はタイ、アメリカンの選択が出来ました。
• David (6/5): - The location opposite Wat Arun is great. But it’s quite an old property in the neighbourhood of some really grubby and broken down structures and dilapidated buildings. However the asking room rate does reflect the neighbourhood. I had to frame all my photos of the Wat Arun to avoid the nearby structures so I’ve not shared any.
• hannah (6/5): 왓아룬을 보며 잠드는 로맨틱한 호텔 - 내 방에서 왓아룬이 정면에 보인다. 매우 로맨틱하지만 강가 바로 앞이라 습하며 새벽내내 강을 지나가는 화물선 소리가 엄청나게 시끄럽다. 예민한 사람이라면 한숨도 못잘것이다. 천장에 쥐가 돌아다니는 소리가 난다. 호텔 내부는 청결하고 직원도 정말 친절하다. 엘레베이터가 없다. 모든 불편을 감수하고도 왓 아룬이 보이는 방이라서 하루정도는 괜찮다.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Amazing view of Wat Arun. Can't beat it.
• Kacang (6/5): - Great location and the rooms are lovely. However THERE IS NO LIFT. I managed to get a 2nd floor room for the 1st night but had to change to the 4th floor for the second. The 2nd floor room was lovely. Very well appointed and with a small balcony looking over the river. The 4th floor was more spartan with no balcony. The worst problem though was noise from the rooftop bar just overhead. Avoid the 4th floor . NB the area is humming during the day but shut in the evening. Few dinner options.
• pisily (10/5): nice view - nice view if you stay in river view side and good location that is close to tourist attraction.
• Jennifer (8/5): - The hotel was in a great location on the river with beautiful views! Be mindful that there isn’t an elevator, so if you’re staying on the 4th floor, it’s a long way up. There’s also a rooftop bar (which has amazing views), but it’s quite noisy if you’re staying on the fourth floor right below the bar.
• Jacqueline (10/5): Best Sweet small hotel - Loved this sweet hotel right on the water and directly across the street from Wat Pho. OMG the stay was delightful.
• Sam (8/5): Great View from the room of Wat Arun - Getting up in the morning and looking at Wat Arun was amazing from my room while having my coffee in the balcony.. Breakfast has few choices including North American and local food. I would suggest to order Pad Thai with Scramble eggs. Walking distance to ALL the sites you would want to visit so it was a good choice.
• Chris (10/5): Amazing view of Wat Arun - The hotel is located in the heart of Bangkok. Almost all the famous tourist attractions are located within walking distance from the hotel (Wat Pho, The Grand Palace, Khaosan Road, Yaowarat aka Chinatown). And top it all off from the balcony of the Hotel Room there was a breath taking view of the Chao Phraya River and the iconic Temple Wat Arun. Now the only downside to staying at this hotel was that not many taxi drivers heard of it or new where it was located. But that was no big deal cause the hotel is literally right across the street from Wat Pho which every taxi driver in Bangkok knows how to get to! So if you decide to stay at this hotel which I would recommend just ask the taxi drivers to take you to Wat Pho and you will really enjoy your stay in Bangkok!!!
• Verified traveler (6/5): Hotel is closed for renovation - Hotel is under renovation (which was a bit annoying) and difficult to find as tucked away. they directed us to one of their sister hotels called Arun the deck. This hotel was okish, rooms are a bit tired, there is a humidity smell and airconditioning is very laut. Staff is very friendly but they speak little english making communication difficult. The view is great but the Wat arun temple is under renovation so is not lit at all. Overall the hotel is ok if you just need a place to sleep and are not planning to spend to much time in the hotel.
• Kathy (8/5): Would recommend - Brilliant location for the Grand Palace. Breakfasts were very good and on the 2 days we were on early trips the staff organised packed breakfasts. We had choices of sandwiches, yoghurt and fresh fruit. Bottled water was supplied every day for tea/coffee and extra put in the fridge to drink. Only tiny thing but the face flannels disappeared one day and a dirty plate and glass were left in the bathroom but not a big deal really. Access to the hotel looks a bit uninviting as it is at the end of a narrow street which the backs of shops are but again not really a big issue. The roof top bar had great views but was not run by the hotel and so was locked until late afternoon so could not take photos of the Temple of Dawn in the day but managed to take some from the dining area. Only had one dinner there which was ok.
• Verified traveler (8/5): Good location close to river and major temples. - Great staff. Good river view. Good breakfast and restaurant food.
