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.”

Lovely overnight stay in Bangkok
Location is great and the pool area is lovely. Room was very clean and the staff were excellent.
The rooms are slightly dated with the television in the bathroom looking like it is from the late 1990s.

Never fails to impress
This hotel never fails to impress. We have stayed here over the years on many occasions and each time the level of service and ambience make each stay a wonderful treat.

What a fabulous place to stay - we feel so spoiled by the staff!
Loved the location and the river boat services. That was really convenient when we were out and about, particularly at night. The staff were amazing. Particularly the concierge team who made lots of reservations for us. We also really liked that the hotel had little stands with activities to introduce us to Thai culture.
Absolutely nothing!

I am grateful to Alexander Lane (the hotel manager when we were there).
I love the excellent service. The location is perfect and the boats that take you across the river are magical. This is my 4th visit. I will be back. The pool and the staff do an amzing job. The property dining is extremely good.

Really good hotel, outstanding breakfast, great staff. Rooms need refurbishment.
Breakfast ist still outstanding. Thai restaurant serves great thai dishes in wonderful location. Breakfast with highgest quality, all kinds of food, best service! Rooms are still nice but furniture outdated. E.g. plugs for smartphones next to the bed are not existing - this is a no go in our times. Also telephone and electronics very old. Location still perfect and I would say the best in bangkok! pick up and drop off service at the airport (staff even does the check in for you!) is absolutely perfect!
Rooms need urgently updates, e.g. no power plugs for smartphones next to the beds

Very good
The accommodation and staff are exceptional. The location is superb for the major tourist sights and a great place to take drinks by the river. Main thing is the service, excellent.
The cost of food. You are better off eating outside. Iconsiam is next door. I don't think the cost justifies the ability to have a nice table
