We absolutely loved our stay here! Everyone was so welcoming, friendly and helpful and they really looked after us. We would definitely stay here again and recommend this place to everyone!
The location is perfect as it’s so close to places like Wat Arun, Wat Pho, the Grand Palace and more!
This is an excellent boutique hotel. It is on the waterfront in old town Bangkok. The lady that runs the desk on the days i was there is incredibly nice and very helpful. The room was smaller but very comfortable and well laid out. We also got free breakfast whoch was an ample start to the day with a western style breakfast or thai style.
Awesome stay. Very clean and room was spacious and close to Wat Pho, and a 15 min walk to grand palace and Chao Phraya boat tours. Nice breakfast overlooking War Arun. Staff helped me to sort out my baggage and were very responsive on messaging feature.
Small hotel with extremely attentive and kind staff. Room views of river are partially obstructed by building in front. Located very close to National Palace and Reclining Buddha.
This is a great place to stay for those that like boutique hotels in historic city centers. Great location on the river. Close to the Grand Palace. Easy access to the MRT blue line. The staff was really attentive and helpful.

Right by most of the main attractions - hotel is a little dated and worn -
Great location to be within walking distance of many attractions.
The breakfast was delicious and the staff was very friendly.
Pan (who works the front desk) went over the top to make our stay enjoyable.
This is a hidden gem with a river view and close to amazing temples, boat tours, the ferries and the Grand Palace. We had an amazing stay here and highly recommend it. The location is perfect - close to everything yet on a quiet street.
Breakfast is delicious and comes with a riverside table. The staff here are all incredibly kind and friendly. The lady who manages the hotel made everything so special for us - from the Thai lessons to arranging us a driver for a day out and a ride back to the airport.
Kop Kuhn Ca Kuhn Pan!
The hotel is also very close to the flower market and the subway.
Both the subway and the river bus are easy and super safe to use.
And the cost here is very reasonable too.
My one caution - if you book a Grab ride here from the airport make sure they have the right address. When we did this Grab somehow had the wrong address. Totally not the hotel's fault - much better to let the hotel arrange your taxi!
Lots of food options nearby including good street food.
This is the only place I would want to stay in Bangkok!

I stayed here three nights for visit to Bangkok then departed for pattaya. The best part of this hotel is the staff. Ms Pan… was fantastic. The breakfast was good all three days. The hotel is near the water .. no views of wat arun. I really wanted a night time view or even day time view of wat arun or the river. The hotel itself is very clean but older. I think the price is good value $105 a night for king sized bed and breakfast . But no good view of river or wat arun. I left Bangkok and stayed at lebua which was old and overpriced and finally found a great hotel called the standard in Bangkok which was my favorite!
The staff went above and beyond to make our stay with them seamless for exploring Bangkoks many activities, food, and Wats. Even our driver to and from the airport was set up easily with the staff even though we had to leave at 3am for the coast our last day. Absolutely will come back. We love you Pan!
This property is a hidden gem. So many major attractions so close nearby. The breakfast is such a nice touch and you eat it looking at Wat Arun. The hotel staff are incredible, it’s like a home away from home
The property was in a great location and in good condition. AC worked great and bed and bathroom clean. The owner was very kind and helpful! Their breakfast is also very good and has a great view of the river. Would definitely stay here again.
The property is safe and convenient however the rooms are very small, confining, old, no balconies and have not been updated. The staff was extremely helpful and kind however requires you to hand them your room key every time you walk out the door.
For anyone wanting access to all Bangkok has to offer but doesn’t want to stay in the hectic city centre, Aurum The River Place is for you.
It is only a few minutes walk from a pier and train station. Too took
This a very good small hotel near all the major tourist attractions in Bangkok. Wat Pho - which is arguably the best temple in Bangkok- is a 3 minute walk away and it’s close to a subway station and a river pier. The staff are friendly and the breakfast is eaten on a terrace next to the river with great views
This is a great family-run hotel overlooking the river opposite Wat Arun (Temple of Dawn) within walking or tuk-tuk distance of Wat Pho and the Grand Palace. Also close to underground and river boat services. Very hospitable, friendly service. Clean, well maintained rooms and excellent breakfast in the hotel’s own open air cafe on the river bank. Brilliant value for money.
Pan took excellent care of us with her attentive service and cheerful demeanor. Even though the cook wasn’t there for a day, she made sure breakfast service continued with efficiency. We would come back just for her amazing service. Additionally, the location is amazing with quick access to all of the major temples in Bangkok. Overall, we highly recommend this hotel for anybody staying in Bangkok.
