Hotel The Peninsula, Bangkok
Expert reviews
“There are a handful of super luxurious hotels in Bangkok, and the Peninsula should be considered one of the finest of the group. Situated on the west side of the Chao Phraya River, the hotel defines quality with spacious river-view rooms, incredible drinking and dining options, and a world-class spa.”
Featured as Fodor’s Choice in Bangkok.
“Though taller and sleeker than the Mandarin Oriental, which it faces across the Chao Phraya River, the Peninsula lives somewhat in the shadow of its illustrious neighbor. Yet when you compare all aspects of each, the Peninsula comes out very favorably.”
Featured as Frommer’s Exceptional Choice in Bangkok.
“First opened in 1998, The Peninsula Bangkok is a well-loved luxury property in the Thai capital. Though the city has seen a recent influx of trendy, branded properties, The Peninsula Bangkok retains a prominent place on the landscape, thanks to its classic look and au courant amenities.”
“The Peninsula is a riverside hotel that offers fantastic views of Bangkok’s skyline from its 370 rooms. A classic chain hotel, this luxury edifice nevertheless exudes seasoned oriental charm with great service and a fantastically placed Thai restaurant overlooking the water.”

Wonderful facilities, wonderful staff, wonderful experience overall. One of the best hotel experiences we have had on vacation - especially the boat rides to Icon Siam!
Rooms are showing age, but still classic. Wish the hotel had a signature scent like W - especially in the rooms as it has a bit of that old carpet smell

Exceptional hotel in the heart of Bangkok.
Excellent location on the Chao Phraya river with frequent boat services to Omnisiam shopping center and also to the opposite bank. Outstanding breakfast, and the restaurants are all exceptional. The three pools and the gym are superb and the staff could not do enough.
Nothing comes to mind.

Perfect Peninsula
We enjoyed taking the boat back and forth across the river. The pool area is beautiful and the staff are excellent. Our room had wonderful views.Breakfast was superb.
We would have liked a welcome drink. We would have liked the newspaper delivered as it used to be.

Had great time
Dear Peninsula Bangkok Team, I would like to extend my deepest appreciation for the outstanding experience I had during my recent six-night stay at your remarkable hotel. Although this was my first time staying at The Peninsula Bangkok, it certainly will not be the last. Every aspect of my visit exceeded expectations — from the warm and professional welcome at the reception and the serene ambiance of the lobby, to the exquisite breakfast and culinary offerings. What truly stood out, however, was the unparalleled professionalism and dedication of your concierge team. In over 50 years of traveling the world, I have never encountered such an exceptionally efficient, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful concierge service. Their tireless commitment to assisting guests is truly beyond compare. Moreover, I was deeply impressed by the excellent English proficiency demonstrated by all staff members, which made communication effortless and added greatly to the overall comfort and ease of my stay. This was my sixth visit to the vibrant city of Bangkok, and I can confidently say that The Peninsula is ideal for families seeking peace, comfort, and refined service. While the pricing is premium, it is undoubtedly justified by the exceptional quality and attention to detail provided at every level. Thank you once again for making this stay so memorable. I wholeheartedly recommend your hotel to discerning travelers, and I look forward to returning in the future. Warm regards,

Perfect stay , beautiful hotel
We had an amazing stay at the Peninsula. Though we stayed for just one night, everything was perfect. A special mention for the lady at the front desk , Aum, who checked us in. She was very efficient, professional and incredibly helpful. We absolutely enjoyed our stay. The pool is great and breakfast is really good. The ferry service offered is very comfortable and useful. We had drink-driving in the evening at the riverside bar and both the drinks and the ambience were awesome! We will be back.

Luxurious hotel in a great location
The staff who serviced the rooms did a fantastic job, with small details attended to- for example providing bookmarks in partially read books. The cabanas at the pool are wonderful for people who like to stay out of the sun.

Very good
The food and place of the breakfast is very good, making it the most enjoyable time in a day. The food of the Chinese restaurant is delicate and delicious. The river view of my room is magnificent.
The ventilation of the bathroom can be improved. The safe in my room failed one time. Though the staff attended to it promptly, it might be a big problem if I needed to catch the plane.

We definitely will come back again
Friendly and very helpful employees with always time for a chat. The relaxed atmosphere by the river. Always a positive experience to stay there.
