    What a beautiful oasis just a stone's throw from the centre of Bangkok. Nick and the team do a fabulous job of taking care of their guests. The owner's collection of antiques seem to fill every space and could form a museum themselves. A beautiful space to spend the afternoon or, ideally, the night.

    I absolutely loved the Siam. The quality of service (especially from our butler Stang), the size & arrangement of our room, and the gorgeous hotel itself was truly beyond my imagination. From the moment we arrived, I knew I was in for a special experience. The lobby itself, much like the rest of the hotel, is beautifully — and tastefully — decorated with antique art, artifacts, modern sculptures, as well as incredible floral arrangements. Thanks to Amex we were able to check in at 12 PM, and our butler Stang gave us a tour of the hotel, guided us to our room, and helped us with our plans, all without being intrusive. We set up a WhatsApp chat for communication, and I cannot stress enough how responsive and accommodating he was to all our requests. One example of this was when my girlfriend’s fingernail was breaking off, and I texted him requesting a few bandaids. I had briefly forgotten about the request, and then when we went to the spa, my phone died. However, he must have remembered that we were planning to visit the spa around 4PM, and so as we were entering the spa, we heard a knock on the door, and, surprised, we saw him deliver us the band-aids. Anyways, after settling in, we ordered room service from the Story House, which was delicious, while we explored the room. The room itself is gigantic, and unlike any other hotel room I’ve ever stayed in at a comparable price point. There were essentially 4 distinct sections of the room: a couch/TV area with a small dining table, the bed area, a large study area complete with an executive chair, and then the bath set up, along with 2 personal sinks. After lunch, we checked out the pool, which was the most intriguing pool I’ve seen. It’s much longer than it looks in photos, and provides a great view overlooking the river. Next to the pool is the Chon Thai restaurant, where we grabbed a (light) dinner of some Thai Staples, as well the boat station. The boat was amazing as well. Ok well my girlfriend is asking me to stop writing this now since I’ve been at it for a while, so that’s all for now. But it was truly an incredible experience. I love the Siam.

    It is easy to access Icon Siam or the Royal Palace by taking the free water boat provided by the hotel. The service is good and there are not many hotels in Bangkok that can use this kind of space comfortably. Sauna facilities were also good. It is not the buffet stlye breakfast but the level and quality of meal is very good and delicious. However, it is a pity that it is difficult to access downtown, Siam Paragon, because it is difficult to call Grab or a taxi due to heavy traffic. On rainy days, it takes almost an hour to get the downtown from the hotel. So if you plan to travel along the river only, it is a good option to be considered. Overall great.

    After a busy meeting, we spent a heavenly holiday here to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary! We travel a lot and have stayed in many good hotels, but we like it best here. Everything was great! Especially the impeccable service. We only regret not planning to stay here for a few more days. We would like to thank the General Manager, Nick Downing, and his team, especially our butlers Sumet and GUB during our stay. We will definitely be back!

    In my opinion The Siam is a one of a kind hotel with almost no benchmark to compare to in Bangkok: it would be like comparing an old collectible classic car to a brand new sports car. The Siam is almost like a resort in the city, and the hotel also looks like a museum with many historical artefacts in the common areas and also in the rooms. The hotel is low-rise and only has 39 suites and villas so very quiet which in periods of high occupancy in the city (non-covid times) would be a nice change from the large busy hotels. The Siam is also in a large compound isolated from the rest of the city with vegetation to give a strong resort feeling. I booked the entry level room (80 sqm) and received a one-category upgrade at check-in to the to Mae Nam Suite (90 sqm). The fact that even the cheapest rooms at this hotel are so large means that for people who value space, when comparing to other hotels you probably have to match with the higher level room types. In that regard The Siam is comparable to 137 Pillars where all rooms are suites and quite large, therefore the starting price is not cheap. The Mae Nam suites are on the second floor of the hotel and have modest water views; the better views are on the 3rd floor and those rooms are the Riverview suites. That said, regardless of which room type the views are nicer at the other riverside hotels such as Mandarin Oriental, Four Seasons, and Capella. The Siam is an old hotel and the room is unmatched in terms of design with a very traditional and historical feeling rather than the modern design of many other luxury hotels. The room was very long with the window at the far end which made the room a bit dark. Also because this is effectively a resort, it’s one of the few hotels in Bangkok where I saw mosquito repellant in the room which ended up being useful because we had a few unwanted visitors during our stay. The hotel common areas were stunning and beautiful, as mentioned above almost like a museum, and worth the visit by itself. The movie room was particularly interesting where you can login to your Netflix account and project a movie on the large screen and even have the possibility to order a set dinner or lunch box. Breakfast was outdoors close to the river in an enjoyable venue to start the day. The a la carte menu was quite good with a mix of western and Asian options including attractive and upscale protein dishes. One evening we ordered cocktails at their seating area near the dock which is very nice, but the cocktails were quite weak and nowhere near the caliber of drinks at Four Seasons, Mandarin Oriental, or Waldorf Astoria. In my opinion the bar is a point of improvement at The Siam. The service during our stay was very good and definitely more resort-style which means down to earth and relaxed. Also the hotel being quite small it’s easier to be recognized by staff and the GM is quite visible and available to guests at all times so he sets the tone for the rest of the staff. Overall this hotel can be ideal for people looking for a small and private boutique hotel with a resort feeling and a sharp break from the ordinary, because of its charming historical rooms and beautiful common areas. It is almost impossible to compare with more modern or renovated hotels elsewhere in the city who provide more traditional luxury rather than ‘antique’ luxury such as The Siam. The most loyal guests at The Siam will certainly not consider alternatives in Bangkok to be suitable for them.

    It’s like you’re in the museum! This resort is the best place to escape the bustling Bangkok. It’s also accessible via private boat, making your journey even more unique. The service level is excellent!

    An otherworldly experience. the level of taste is extraordinary, really a living museum of Khmer and Thai antiques but not stuffy in the least. The service goes beyond caring snd kind- —everyone makes your stay feel like visiting family . Nick (GM). & Tong ( private butler). get a special shout-out for their help and knowledge. It’s an aesthetic and very enjoyable pleasure to stay here. Food’s great too.

  • 5/5 Becky W. 10 months ago on Google
    Wow! This place is truly an experience, you feel as if you're staying in a living museum. We spent three nights here recently and it's still buzzing in my memory as one of the best things we did in Thailand. The room was incredible with the stunning river view and all the amenities you could wish for in a suite. The pool and the serve down there were impeccable - what a treat to even lie by a pool in Bangkok! We were brought fresh fruit and iced-water which was magic in the heat. One night when it rained, we booked the screening room which is filled with movie memorabilia, like life-sized ET and Yoda. We ate dessert from the restaurant while we watched our movie on the plush sofa - bliss! If I could choose one hotel in the world to live in forever, it would be this one. Everything from the food to the art and trinkets to the service, and even the little birds who sing to you on the way through to breakfast, is magical!! Thank you for this unforgettable experience.

    Exclusive and luxury five-star hotel. ✨️ Tranquillity is privacy, and it's like being a museum-style accommodation for us to appreciate and be impressed with the old, ancient decorations that are rare quite expensive. There is a swimming pool next to the Chao Phraya River, evening swim you will see a very beautiful view. Suitable for honeymoon, relaxing. Good ambience and good service staff.

    Visited the hotel for afternoon tea. It was a reasonable attempt. Good quality. Walking through the hotel gardens is amazing. They have various areas that are totally unique.

  • 5/5 Manoch K. 1 year ago on Google
    A great stay. The design and decoration of this hotel is really beautiful, and the staff service is also very warm, considerate and timely. The two restaurants (one Thai and one Western) are very good. With its own private dock and boat, it is convenient to reach most of the popular attractions. The rooms are spacious and comfortable.

    We stayed at the Siam for a week and it’s one of the best experiences we have ever had. I’ve stayed in many luxury hotels, but the entire team put a lot of effort into small little details which will make you feel super special. Big thank you to Khun Sumet who took very good care of us during the stay and also beyond that. Everytime we are back to Bangkok it’s always a place to go. Thank you for the hospitality.

    Heaven in Thailand 🌿😍. We would like to express our deepest thanks toward Mr. Nick The General Manager and all the staff ( Stang, King, Thanag) in the lobby, restaurant, Spa and House keeping for the humble and generous kindness and professionalism services & unforgettable experience that we had during our stay (5 nights)

  • 5/5 Weitong L. 7 months ago on Google
    Absolutely loved staying at The Siam! Quite and peaceful, definitely recommended if looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Take advantage of the private boat service to get around town for exploring and for getting to/from dinner. Great breakfast selection. We also enjoyed our spa treatment! Fantastic service all around.

  • 5/5 Doug W. 4 months ago on Google
    Wow. Stunning hotel. Bill Bensley designed so really quirky and interesting. One of my favourites ever for the staff, location, beauty and uniqueness of the place. Would definitely go back next time in Bangkok.

  • 5/5 Logan S. Y. 7 months ago on Google
    The Siam is truly a hidden getaway in the heart of busy Bangkok. I enjoy staying at this magnificent, impressive hotel with impeccable services. All the staffs are so tentative, polite, and friendly. Their restaurants and spa are all exceptionally well, you can truly relax within the premise. On the other hand, the location of the hotel might be inconvenience for those who need to head into town often.

  • 5/5 Geo G. 7 months ago on Google
    I stayed at the Siam back in March and felt remiss in my delay to give this gem accolades for its luxurious oasis in the Bangkok bustle. Nick, the General Manager, and the team were flawless in their service and attention to detail. I will definitely return and recommend this unique and memorable hotel. Beautiful grounds, appointed with cultural and historical artifacts, and attended by staff clearly focused on guest experience. The room was exquisite with views on the Chao Praya, a shower and bath so luxurious one might want to linger longer, a bed that tucked one in effortlessly, and stunning ambience. Breakfast and dinner in all venues were fabulous. And from Nick's greeting upon arrival to his pre-dawn bon voyage on my departure, I knew my experience was in expert hands.

    I went there to have the afternoon tea set. The pastry and tea is good. The view is nice. But the service is very poor. Most of staffs are nice except the guy who take care at tea room. This guy said to me and my friend that we do not suppose to sit at check in area when we just went to take photos for 10 second and the place is so empty. We dont see anybody. But when we take photos, he point out that we should go back to sit inside. This is not the place we supposed to sit. This is so weird, unpleasant and non-sense service. It destroy me and my friend's mood for enjoying afternoon tea. I won't go back there again.

    I simply must share the incredible experience I had at this hotel! I arrived with normal expectations for a two-day stay, but I fell so in love with the place that I decided to extend my stay to a full week. The staff was so wonderful and kind, providing amazing service that made me feel at home from the moment I walked in. The breakfas t? Absolutely marvelous, varied and delicious, truly worth half the cost of the stay by itself! And I must not forget to mention the stunning design of the hotel , and I’m an architect... I highly recommend this hotel and am sure to return!

    I have to share my important staying with this hotel, i am pregnant traveller still young , 3 month age.and i have some small problem that i have to make sure to the doctors, and they until General Manager Position , Mr. Nick , take care of me a lot.

Will be back here to the Siam and would recomend this place to all my family friend.

  • 4/5 Andy S. 4 months ago on Google
    Attended a friends wedding here. Absolutely stunning venue, really friendly and helpful staff. The food was also amazing, and there was so much of it! A bit far out from the centre but you can get a boat taxi to or from there which is must faster than going by taxi.

  • 5/5 Jitrapon T. 4 months ago on Google
    I was there for my friend’s wedding. Superb atmosphere and well decorated. There is the retro Thai vibe all around. Great food served at lunch. Definitely a hidden gem in this location next to the river.

  • 5/5 Giancarlo D. 9 months ago on Google
    The Siam is the definition of luxury. From the moment you walk in you immediately feel like you are in a different world. Everyone is incredibly polite as you are welcomed into the hotel. You then meet your butler that assists you throughout your stay. Our butler was Bright and he was very attentive throughout our stay. The hotel is filled with artifacts and history that you cannot find anywhere else. Even one of our local tour guides was impressed with how the hotel was able to obtain these. The hotel is a bit distant from the city’s attractions however the hotel boat makes it easy to take trips from the hotel to various piers. I was a little surprised to find that more people did not take advantage of the hotel bar and restaurants however the calmness and quiet atmosphere is part of what makes the hotel so nice. The rooms are beautiful, the hotel is beautiful, and the staff is amongst the nicest we have come across!

  • 5/5 Stephane D. 4 years ago on Google
    I recently enjoyed hosting my birthday party at the Siam Hotel. My 40 guests and I will have memories forever. The cocktail dinner on the lawn by the river then the After Party at the Deco Bar. What a great setup! The team was absolutely loving & caring; we felt very well taken care of. This hotel is the jewel of Bangkok right by the river. I am looking forward to seeing the whole team there soon again!

  • 5/5 Wolter van L. 1 year ago on Google
    We had the pleasure of staying at The Siam for 4 nights in early May 2022. Quarantine-free travel had just lifted so we were lucky to have almost the entire hotel to ourselves for a few days.. Our stay was amazing. The service was impeccable, our private butler (Tong) helped us out with all of our bookings and arrangements and was a great source of recommendations on top of the Bangkok guide provided by the hotel which was very helpful as well. We met the general manager, Nick, who was very accommodating and regularly checked in to make sure our stay was 100%. The hotel room we had was spacious and well decorated with a comfy kingsize bed. The interior of the hotel is like a combination of a palace meets museum, with antique art from around the world in every room and hallway. We found the library was a great place to do some quiet work (unfortunately that was required), and we made use of the private hotel boat to get anywhere on the river, such a fun (and quick!) way to get around Bangkok and avoid the sometimes busy traffic. The restaurant was also great - what better way to start the day than having breakfast overlooking the river. Would also recommend the Spa downstairs, a very relaxing way to recover from busy Bangkok, as well as making use of the “screening room” which is a small private cinema you can book whilst ordering from the room-service menu. We will certainly stay here again on our next trip to Bangkok, absolutely worth it and 10/10 recommended.

  • 5/5 mayorosaldoong 1 year ago on Google
    Back again after 10yrs since it opened. Nothing has changed - still stunning. Probably one of only few gorgeous boutique hotels in Bangkok. Such a beautiful property at every angle. Service is top notch and the restaurant food is superb. Spa treatments are very, very relaxing. We really had an amazing time. The only thing that I feel not right are the caged birds above the spa. I really don’t like seeing birds in cages. Maybe it’s just me.

  • 5/5 Raymond K. 1 year ago on Google
    Super nice design place, by the river, modern yet in traditional style. For a different type of Bangkok experience the perfect place. But be aware, you are away from the hussle and bustle, its quite a journey to centre and back (esp in rush hour and raining). Use the hotel shuttle boat where possible...

  • 5/5 Yoonil K. 1 year ago on Google
    Stunning interior and exterior. Hands on staff and great history of the place itself. Stayed in the courtyard villa, which had a small (deeper than it looks) pool. They offer pick ups by limousine and by boat, which I wish I knew when I was getting there. Things that could have been better -noise - it was a bit noisy and we could hear either the next room or the people working on something shouting. -thought it could be cleaner, as if you looked a bit closer it was a bit dirty (especially behind the bar at the pool and cafe)

  • 5/5 Vivi T. 1 year ago on Google
    The Siam Hotel though not that big, it is one of very few most interesting and beautiful hotels globally I’ve ever stayed It’s just full of details for you to keep exploring, the only regret for this time stay is that I didn’t spend enough time at hotel. Have to say it’s perfectly fits my aesthetic, just can’t help to taking picture around every corner Despite the small unhappy anecdote happened, the staff and service overall meets a good standard of what you can expected, attentive and quite helpful to customers’ activities arrangement Also the introduction book they prepared is so informative about choices staying and outside the hotel Comparatively you will find those luxury big chains a little bit dull

  • 5/5 Carolina B. 1 year ago on Google
    We loved the Siam Hotel! The decoration is superb, like a little paradise in the middle of busy Bangkok, the location and the boat service is perfect and the people working there are super helpful and kind. Gug recommended us great excursions from the hotel and fun activities for each day with easy access from the hotel. Totally recommeded!

  • 5/5 Hannah T. 1 year ago on Google
    One of the best hotels we’ve ever stayed in and certainly the best hospitality we’ve ever experienced. The hotel is beautiful, the staff are excellent, the hotel restaurant made every dish look like a piece of art. Without a doubt a 5 star hotel and experience. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

  • 5/5 Cynthia A. 1 year ago on Google
    Highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a relaxing stay in Bangkok. The accomodation is beautiful, the service is impeccable, the breakfast is delicious, and every little detail is taken care of. Nick does an amazing job as General Manager, and we were so spoiled to have Tong as our personal butler.

  • 5/5 Fabrice L. 1 year ago on Google
    Maybe one of the most exclusive 5* hotels in Bangkok. Just arrived, with the welcoming of every staff, we feel at home. If you like the typical colonial, Art Déco style like us, then this is the place to be in Bangkok. The masterpiece of this hotel is Satisfaction of their guests. Congrats for all members of this Siam Hotel "family".

  • 5/5 Rov 1 year ago on Google
    It was a good experience staying here. What I like most is the customer service relation — good service and very accommodating. The villas was so great. I like the private pool, the patio and the view. It was so greenery and “freshy” in the eye. A lot of activities to entertain your stay here. A good place to have a staycation and out from the city! Superb!!! 🥂

  • 5/5 Darren T. 1 year ago on Google
    The whole experience staying at The Siam is so wonderful and memorable. This is indeed a very beautiful resort with its own unique style in black and white theme. My stay is so comfy, the food is good, the spa service is marvelous. I was treated like a VIP. Kudos to the managmenent and staff, especially Khun Bib (Marcom manager) , Khun Tong (superstar butler), Khun Gub (butlet manager) and Khun Tong (spa manager). They are so attentive, polite, helpful, and friendly. They made my stay so memorable and sweet. They are indeed the superstars of the resort!

  • 5/5 Gareth D. 2 years ago on Google
    I cannot recommend The Siam more. On a recent staycation the hotel went above and beyond to make sure we had an amazing time. On top of that, the room (we had a riverside villa) was incredible, the food was top notch, and Sumet, out butler was hugely helpful and accommodating. Having stayed in a fair few of Thailand's higher end hotels this year, I can honestly say that it's hard to beat the overall experience at The Siam. Cannot wait to go back!

  • 3/5 O O. 9 months ago on Google
    + The breakfast was stellar Spa is very nice Kick boxing class was excellent Hotel’s water taxi crew was very helpful - The room didn’t have windows. Sort of a weird layout. It was a nice room but no natural light…. Location is a bit far of the main tourist attractions. Specially with the crazy Bangkok traffic The GM was very nice but one of the front desk attendants was very pretentious and not very helpful.

    Bangkok is for Shopping & Relaxing. This place is pure luxury. It's an inviting elegant venue where you will be surrounded by art pieces amidst pockets of lavishly landscaped interior gardens, fountains and antiques. It is a mix of art gallery, museum and timeless elegance. The accommodations are comfy. The customer service is superb. Our suite came with a private pool and butler service. Our butler, Mac is amazing! Make sure to ask for him. He is knowledgeable, friendly, and professional. His suggestions and guidance have made our trip memorable. Siam has a boat that provides free transport to area temples (Wats), restaurants and street markets. This hotel is absolute glam. We are happy to have chosen Siam and couldn't imagine visiting Bangkok again without experiencing this delicious oasis. It is both classical and modern. It is both a blessing and an addiction.
