They say Wat Arun is the best place to see the sunset in Bangkok – but it has a rival in Avani+ Riverside Bangkok Hotel. Up on the rooftop of this central urban retreat, just moments from Riverside Plaza, the infinity pool appears to teeter over the vast Chao Phraya River, letting you gaze out over life on the river in the daytime, and watch the bright lights of Bangkok glittering as night draws in. You can also catch those skyline views from your guestroom and from the roof-capping SEEN Restaurant & Bar, where the al fresco dining deck is scattered with nightlights and lanterns.

Very nice, clean, quiet hotel with great breakfast

We had a lovely 3 nights stay at this hotel. And it was the best start on our Thailand vacation. The rooms have a nice size, was clean and very soundproof. We could hear neither neighbours, people on the hallway or the city outside.

We had a lovely 3 nights stay at this hotel. And it was the best start on our Thailand vacation. The rooms have a nice size, was clean and very soundproof. We could hear neither neighbours, people on the hallway or the city outside. The hotel is located a bit outside the center and we didn’t know there was a river shuttle service to the hotel, so we took the taxi. The pool area is very nice and has a fancy dining area next to it. We also enjoyed the breakfast buffet which was the absolute best of the 4 hotels we stayed at. I can only recommend this hotel Read less
Rush to the Airport

The services here are excellence, the views exceptional, will be back for my trip to Thailand. Was in need for a small package to pack my stuff to the airport but the hotel didn’t got any. But how fortunate for me, the guy from the concierge called Far Bellman got me a package, tape, scissor… Thanks man.

Rooftop infinity pool, extensive buffet.

Definitely get the buffet - really extensive with many Asian, (congee, custom noodle soup station) Indian, (different curries daily) and European (beans, toast and jam) options, and one made-to-order egg dish per customer, and nice desserts from mousse to gelato.

Definitely get the buffet - really extensive with many Asian, (congee, custom noodle soup station) Indian, (different curries daily) and European (beans, toast and jam) options, and one made-to-order egg dish per customer, and nice desserts from mousse to gelato. Panoramic river views, beautiful tall spaces in the lobby and restaurant. The bellman is at ground level, lobby on the 11th floor, and beautiful rooftop deck with infinity pool, restaurant, and bar on the roof. Room: modern with a huge window with a commanding view, the bed was very comfortable, and there was a rainhead shower but no tub, and USB chargers at bedside. Location: the sister hotel at the waterfront has a dock with an hourly free hop-on hop-off ferry to take you to a shopping mall to the north, and this can cut considerably time getting to downtown destinations, because traffic is Bangkok mayhem everywhere. The neighborhood is walkable but noisy with mostly tin shacks and tiny strip-mall businesses. Getting a "Grab" taxi is the best way to get around. Read less
