Board a private speedboat bound for The Siam Hotel at Saphan Taksin central pier and leave Bangkok’s chaos behind. This urban retreat, part of the Legend collection of Preferred Hotels & Resorts, is a one-of-a-kind marriage of traditional Thai culture and delicious Art Deco ornamentation designed by “Architectural Digest’s Top 100” recipient Bill Bensley and overseen by Krissada Sukosol Clapp, a Thai pop singer and actor who won the country’s equivalent of a Best Actor Oscar. The resort sits on three acres of riverfront land in the royal Dusit district and draws inspiration from Paris’s Musée d’Orsay. Guests are blanketed in tranquility in oversized suites teeming with antiques.

At first you are a bit overwhelmed with the look of the hotel. Lovely lobby. Interesting atrium. But then you realize how very cold it all is. Antiques are lovely but didn't help with the "museum feel" of the place. Long walks from the rooms to the pool and restaurant. A bar that closes at 6:00 does nothing to help the fact that the life of the city is very far away. The hotel is in a nowheresville neighborhood with only a hospital compound across the street. The pool is lovely EXCEPT when you try to get in AND out!. Very very difficult for anyone! My biggest complaint is the cost of a room with no window. (over $700!). So very disappointing. I am to blame for the the city mis-location. The Siam is to blame for everything else.

We spent two nights in a very comfortable Garden Suite room. The hotel is a dream for anyone interested in antiques ! The room was very well equipped and comfortable and clean and the food was excellent. We were very well looked after by Takob and Eve in the restaurant. Nawee, the hotel Manager was charming and so helpful. We went out all day visiting everything we could so there was no time for any spa treatments.

The location of this hotel is perfect - not too far away from the centre, but far enough away for peace and quiet. It’s a little Oasis by the riverside. The hotel’s shuttle boat is a good idea and a very relaxing way to get into the centre. The design of the hotel is fantastic, with lots of interesting art work and artefacts on display. The pool, by the riverside is stunning. We didn’t try the spa, but it looked lovely. We ate at the restaurant several times. Breakfast was included and was delicious, but we also ate lunch there twice and dinner once. We highly recommend the food and service. The staff were all exemplary and so friendly and helpful. A special thank you to our Butler Zul, who was always on hand to help with any questions we had. Also a big thank you to Nick, the GM, who is excellent. 🙏🙏

From the moment you arrive, you will feel totally disconnected from the hustle and bustle of Bangkok's urban jungle. The staff will welcome you with open heart and friendliness. The design and architecture are very unique and you will be transported into a little piece of heaven on earth with the luxurious vegetation and peacefulness of this hotel. The villa i stayed in had a private pool and great sundeck to relax and tan, and it was amazing to wake up in the middle of this little oasis. The breakfast is served by the river in a very scenic restaurant, you can just watch the life on the river as it goes by early mornings, the food is very exquisite with handmade pastries and freshly squeezed tropical juices. The restaurant is serving a wide range of Thai delights and the staff is fully dedicated in giving you the best service experience. Also make sure to stop by the spa to enjoy a massage after a long day exploring the city. You will feel totally rejuvenated! Well done to Nick, the General Manager, and his team for offering such a fantastic experience!

From the moment you walk in, the hotel and its staff ooze a wonderful blend of professionalism and friendliness. The hotel is set a bit out of the main city but this is easily overcome with their most own boat shuttling guests to specific points (even riverside restaurants) and re-collecting you at agreed times. This is a much more enjoyable way of getting around Bangkok than fighting the traffic. The room we stayed in on the third floor was spacious and lovely. The restaurant over looking the river serves a great breakfast too. The general manager (Nick) was a regular presence and also extremely friendly and helpful. All in all we would highly recommend this hotel and all of their lovely team.
