The hotel was amazing, very friendly staff who helped in anyway they could. Excellent location for visiting the major tourist attractions and trips up and down the river
The hotel is really well placed! So close from the temples!! The view was excellent from some rooms and restaurant in rooftop. Be aware the as from the 3rd floor, you will hear the traffic on the river, even at 4AM…

The location is very great. The view from some rooms of the hotel and from the restaurant is wonderful. The staff is so kind and helpful! But the curtain in the shower was stained. And at the 3rd floor, you can hear the boats on the river, even during the night! The A/c in the first room

First of all, the location can’t be beat. The rooms are clean and bed was comfy. There is just no space for luggage. No luggage rack. Feng shui of rooms is terrible. We had to get creative to access our clothing. Other than that, we really liked it.
Amazing!!! The staff is fantastic! Welcoming and helpful on every level. Our room was originally on the floor-level with the rooftop restaurant across the little road. Uncomfortable for us if we had the curtains open to see the view Wat Arun. When I called the desk and asked if we could be moved they said while they were full that night if we packed our bags and left them in the room when we went out the next day they would move us as we were there 4 nights. Smooth as clockwork. Definitely recommend a stay
Riva Arun was the perfect place to stay in Bangkok! It was absolutely lovely, and the staff was so kind and helpful. The views of Wat Arun were stunning. It was also within a short walk of so many attractions!
Spectacular property right on the Chao Praya River..Walking distance to The Grand Palace, Wat Pho, and the Flower Market diagonally across from Wat Arun..
River Ferries and the Tourist Boat make convenience access to a good portion of Bangkok
Great place to stay and two michelin restaurants just infront, the best part was the attention of the staff and that is with walking distance to every major temple. Thanks Pink for helping us during our stay :)
We loved staying at the Riva Arun. The location fantastic. Easy walk to many temples and right in front of the water taxi. Highly recommend staying here.
