We spent three nights at Arun Residence during a short stay in Bangkok and were not let down. We had a split-level room that was quite compact, but very stylish and had everything we needed. The staff were generally really helpful, with the reception staff speaking excellent English and always willing to help. Arun Residence is located within a short... More

Firstly, the view of Wat Arun after sunset is truly something special, so I'd recommend you go just for that. However, don't stay too long as the service here is possibly some the worst I've encountered anywhere in the world. Overpriced food/drinks and disdainful staff is not really a winning combination, so it was disappointing to discover that these were... More

We stayed here for 3 nights in November 2012. The staff were very friendly and helpful in anything that we asked of them. The hotel is located right near the Grand Palace, so easy walking distance. At night there aren't too many restaurants closeby but the Deck at the hotel was very nice. But the view from the hotel and... More

Here is a genuine boutique hotel. Just six rooms, quirky but exquisite in an incomparable position tucked into an alleyway on the river's edge, opposite the Temple of the Dawn and in the heart of the historical district. The Arun Suite, small but well appointed, has its own private balcony. Tourists and Thais in the know fill up the water's... More
