Riverside District is where Bangkok slows down and breathes. By day, it’s a haven of cozy cafés, indie boutiques, and art-filled alleys.

Walk barefoot on weathered stone paths, sip a chilled Thai iced tea, and let the rhythm of the city wash over you.

ASAI Bangkok Chinatown
Staying at ASAI Bangkok Chinatown was an absolute delight. Located right in the heart of Bangkok's Chinatown, the hotel is perfectly positioned—just a short walk from everything you’d want: local street food, shops, and public transport. The best part? It’s built right into a shopping mall, so you can come and go without stepping outside, which is great for hot days. My room was spacious, bright, and spotless—cleanliness is clearly a priority here. I was pleasantly surprised by the soundproofing too; it stayed quiet even with some noise from the mall below. The neighborhood itself is vibrant and full of life, with 7-Eleven, Starbucks, and a wellness space called Lets Relax just steps away on the 3rd floor. Prices are very reasonable for the quality and location—great value for money. One small note: since they’re going green, they don’t provide slippers, toothpaste, or toothbrushes, so packing your own essentials is a good idea. But honestly, that didn’t take away from the overall experience. I’d definitely stay here again next time I visit Bangkok.
ASAI Bangkok Sathorn
The service here was absolutely exceptional! I arrived at the hotel before check-in time and was warmly greeted by the front desk staff, who patiently explained the process and kindly arranged luggage storage for me. I mistakenly thought I could check in at 2 PM, so when I returned around 2:40 PM, I was gently reminded that check-in wasn’t until 3 PM—no problem at all. I spent a quiet moment in the lobby reading an e-book while waiting. Just minutes before 3 PM, I got a message saying my room was ready early and I could check in immediately—such a pleasant surprise! Later during my stay, I accidentally locked myself out of the room without my key. Even though the front desk was busy, they handled it quickly and efficiently with zero hassle. I also worked from my room frequently and sometimes couldn’t step out to let housekeeping in. But the team were very considerate—they’d often pass by and proactively offer water or drinks, always with a smile. The room itself is stylish, modern, and well-equipped, the location is super convenient for exploring Bangkok, and the overall design reflects great attention to detail. Bonus: their travel guide introduced me to some hidden gems I hadn’t visited before—really added to the experience. Whether you’re traveling for business or leisure, this hotel delivers comfort, convenience, and genuine hospitality. A top-tier choice that truly stands out.

Arpo Pool Villa Riverside Bangkok
I was extremely disappointed with my stay at this property. The cleanliness was appalling—bed linens were visibly dirty and caused severe itching after sleeping on them. Despite reporting the issue, the response was slow and unsatisfactory, and even getting a full refund took much longer than expected. The overall condition of the rooms suggested years without proper cleaning. The location near the river is nice in theory, but the surrounding area is noisy and unclean. It's hard to believe such a place made it onto any booking platform, especially given the lack of basic hygiene standards. I’d strongly advise travelers to think twice before choosing this hotel—your experience could be just as frustrating as mine.
