The title says it all. In general Bangkok is one of the best high end value cities in the world I've been to, at least when it comes to hotels. The Peninsula, with it's perfect riverside location & private (free) ferry system, is tops-in-class for this city. Fantastic pool. A huge top floor 1 BR suite with panoramic views goes for about half of what […] you'd pay for something comparable in say Maui (Wailea) or NYC. The only thing I would downgrade them for is the concierge performance. They screwed up a couple things for us (gave bad info to our taxi drivers, etc.). That's why only 4 starts for service.

Outstanding hotel in every regard. The service is par excellence, from check-in to check-out. The breakfast buffet and dinner buffet were both outstanding. The river shuttle was always fast, reliable, and fun to ride. Would absolutely stay again when back in Bangkok!

After a wonderful, but sometimes exhausting tour to Laos, through Vietnam and Siem Reap, we were ready for some pampering at the end of our trip. And the Peninsula delivered delightfully: The service and kindness of the employees could not be improved, the pool(s) with gazebos,, the drinks overlooking the river at night, the exotic garden Thai restaurant […] , the convenient and charming river taxis that took us across the river when we had enough energy to venture forth, the terrific buffets, and the comfortable rooms laden with inventive amenities were all designed to make business and recreational travel more comfortable. Even those in our group slightly dubious about a Peninsula splurge, were more than happy that we'd ended our trip on this high and elegant note. Our only caveat was that the otherwise helpful and knowledgeable concierge sent us to some shopping areas that were largely (not entirely) reminiscent of any ordinary US mall before we ended up at the Jim Thomspon silk shops/home, a worthwhile visit for the home visit there.But that's a minor blemish onwhat was otherwise a wonderful stay at a terrific hotel. (And when we did venture forth into the heat and humidity of Bangkok even in the cooler season, we were more than happy to find sanctuary back at our hotel...) Read more

The Peninsula spares nothing in the way of attention to detail. It's location provides both escape from, and easy access to, the sometimes chaotic life of Bangkok. For all it's great qualities, we found the concierge service somewhat lacking. Requests for restaurant recommendations were met by reference to standard "guides" not personal experience […] or knowledge. Also they seemed unaware of the many "local" Thai outdoor open air seafood restaurants scattered around the city, many of which provide both excellent food at moderate prices to an unusual experience. There were other examples; just say that amongst many absolutely superb features, the concierge service was clearly not up to standard. Read more

Excellent hotel. The staff is incredible, and will do anything to make the guest happy. The boat service is great and will accommodate any destination you desire. I think it is probably one of the best hotels we ever frequented and we have been to many five star properties.

The Peninsula Hotel,Bangkok is first class all the way.The staff are exceptional and go out of their way to ensure that the guests are satisfied and enjoying their stay. We enjoy the balcony rooms which are located in the centre of the hotel with great views of the Chao Phraya river. There's always something to view on the river, whether it's the hotels […] boats ferrying guests or the huge barges plying their wares or the colourful long boats or public ferries. I would thoroughly recommend The Peninsula Bangkok which also has a superb Spa and excellent restaurants. Read more

Very nice staff. Great views of the river. Convenient transportation. The hotel provides boat service to go back and forth across the river to take BTS. Only disappointment was that we booked the Klong tour and got up early to wait for the tour guide but nobody showed up.

One of the finest hotels I have ever stayed at, and a fantastic rate as well. The room was very large, very well appointed, and had a great 180 degree view of the river. The pool facilities were outstanding and we had a great dinner at the Chinese restaurant.

I have stayed in many top hotels in Asia, and this is definitely one of the best i have seen. Everything was absolutley top notch to the last detail, everywhere you look! No expenses spared. This was truly awesome. The facilities and the staff make you feel like a VIP throughout your stay. One small example - At the day of check out our flight was […] around midnight - not only the staff was mindful to that detail upon check in , but they also appologized they couldnt give us the late checkout option (due to room availability), and offered full access to the hotel facilities (SPAs etc.) throughout the day, as long as we needed. I am definitly coming back! Read more

Over all I would highy recommend to anyone the Peninsula Hotel. y stay was very pleasant and comfortable. Service was excellent!

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

We had a great time here. We looked around at other resorts, and came to the conclusion that we made the right choice. The location, staff, pool and resort itself was so perfect. The spa is not the best that we have been to. But overall, this is the place to stay. The location was perfect. Very convenient to everywhere we wanted to go.

We thought a lot before staying at the Peninsula. Hotels are so cheap and generally so nice in SE Asia that it seems expensive. But the hotel is so amazing that it is worth the price (and less than half what the Peninsula would cost in the states.) The rooms are amazing. Ours was nearly a suite, with a dressing room, complete with dressing table, and […] a huge bath with full tub and separate shower. The view of Bangkok from the little balcony was amazing. The pool was divine. The food was the best we had in Thailand. The only improvement I could have made would be to have the concierge be a bit more pro-active. When we looked up the restaurants he recommended, they were all sinking in ratings on TripAdvisor, which made us wonder about his motives. Other than that, a perfect destination. Read more

Visited Bangkok with my 20 year old daughter. Enjoyed fantastic facials at the hotel as well as a night of room service after all day shopping. Quality hotel in every way

Genuine Expedia guest review

This is the best hotel my husband and I have ever stayed in - beautiful, clean, excellent food and presentation, and the staff goes consistently above and beyond the call of duty. I have never felt so pampered and comfortable. We booked two tours through the hotel concierge, had the same private tour guide (Mr. Pong), and enjoyed every minute of our […] adventures. Mr. Pong even offered to accompany us on the sky train to see a Cabaret show and visit one of his favorite restaurants later in the week! Another tour that the hotel assisted me in booking to the River Kwai was also excellent and gave me the opportunity to meet other travellers while my husband was working. We were most impressed that they didn't charge us for room service for the two days my husband ordered room service for breakfast before the buffet opened due to his work schedule. They said that they saw breakfast was included in our rate, and left it at that! I can't say enough about this hotel - outstanding! My husband and I have added a visit to each of the Peninsula hotels to our bucket lists! Read more

Everything is perfect. It is a model of how a good hotel should be. Service, employee, maintenance, food, interior, everything has been taken care of with class and to the utmost satisfaction. It is not located in the center, but it gives you the quiet and serene atmosphere by the river and a shuttle boat takes you to the train station on your demand. It […] is truly the paradise in the city. Read more

Second time I've stayed. Will be there on my next trip. Great views of Bangkok and being on the river, never gets old!

The experience was wonderful. It's slightly out of the way (the other side of the river from the main action) but the distance gives a delightful perspective. One could take the ferry boat just for the romance. Would definitely stay here again.

Great hotel. Pool's awesome. Only downside is location (not near restaurants or other attractions), but get better views.

Genuine Expedia guest review

This hotel is the best of the best. I have visites the hotel several times, and I recommend it to everyone.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Superb service. Upgraded to corner room with windows overlooking river. Arrived on public holiday(king's birthday) when almost all sites were closed. Concierge was able to recommend one or two places that remained open for sightseeing. Main Chinese restaurant was not our favorite but all other eateries on property were fine.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

This is the best hotel in Bangkok, probably followed closely by the Four Seasons, but being right on the river at the Peninsula is nice for traveling tourists that want to do boat tours. The restaurant out by the water and the pool are also great and very relaxing.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Great service oriented hotel with staff going that extra mile for you. Rooms are well laid out and the higher floors have amazing views. We stayed 4 days and enjoyed every moment!

Genuine Expedia guest review

The Fitness center is small for such an establishment (compare to moost hotels in Bangkok) The equipment is a little exotic and dangerous for most users, and doesnt match competition. Everything else is outstanding.

Genuine Expedia guest review

This hotel is one of the best in the world. The servise and the rooms are five star. I stayed for a week

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

This is a beautiful hotel and in a good location for Bangkok. We stayed here on our way back to the States and wished we could have stayed longer. The hotel staff were very accommodating and met us at the airport on our departure to make sure there were no problems or questions when we left the country.

Genuine Expedia guest review

I loved the service. I was not too impressed with the location, but the comfort of the hotel room was amazing. I would recommend the stay for a business visit to Bangkok.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

To stay at the Peninsula is always a pleasant experience. Furthermore when in thailand where hospitality is an everyday word.

We jumped ship literally. After 10 days on a 5-star cruise, we got off early and booked into the Peninsula Bangkok for 3 nights and then flew to Singapore, the ships final destination to get back onto our original itinerary. We were so happy that we did so. We used Hotels.com from the ship to reserve the room at the Peninsula. When we checked in, we […] inquired about an upgraded room and the hotel immediately offerred us a suite for a moderate increase over our original room rate. The suite was large - huge living room and a powder bath in addition to the typical bedroom and bathroom - with a great view of the river. The hotel has a free shuttle service to take guests across the river and back, which we used regularly to circumvent the traffic in Bangkok. The service in the hotel was over-the-top including the nurse who is available for no charge 24 hours a day. She provided me with an antibiotic, a decongestant and throat lozenges for no charge and arranged for a courrier to pick-up another medication that they did not have on hand at the hotel for approximately $10 USD including the delivery fee. We also used the hotel's car service to take us to the airport in Bangkok. The driver handed us off to another hotel employee who stayed with us through check-in and assisted with issues that we encountered with the airline. After 2 weeks in Asia prior to reaching the Peninsula Hotel in Bangkok, I finally felt like the experience that I had expected materialized. I can't say enough positive things about the hotel rooms and service level. Breakfast is good and our dinner at the hotel's Thai restaurant overlooking the river was one of the best that we had while in Asia. The only negative I can think of is that the shower leaked badly. The first day I slipped on the water that had literally flooded the bathroom entrance following my shower. Read more

This was our second stay at Peninsula. While not cheap by any means, Peninsula is worth every cent. Rooms are luxurious with great view, location is just a few minutes away by the (free) hotel boat from the sky train, which will quickly get you to most locations in Bangkok. Restaurants are very good. But you will pay New York prices to eat there. Long […] story short: if you are not traveling on a budget, then definitely stay at Peninsula. Read more

Genuine Expedia guest review

The main grass terrace along the hotel's riverfront was rented out for a large wedding. This negatively impacted any private dining experience at the outdoor restaurants. I felt out of place at theexpensi e place I was paying for. I feel loud music and lights should be relegated to private function rooms that don't make us feel like we don't belong […] there. After all, we paid a lot of money for the privilege of the entire hotel public infrastructure. Made me feel like I was at someone else's convention. Wouldn't stay there again unless it stays private.

River side view, clean and nice room, excellent swimming pool with kind hotel crew. Everything is just perfect.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Superb comfort, superb service and superb rooms. A short ride across the river on the hotel's free ferry service takes you to a SkyTrain stop which has to be the preferred way to get around town (it's air-conditioned and traffic in central Bangkok appears to be permanently gridlocked).

Genuine Expedia guest review

Gridlocked in the morning traffic from the airport, our driver dropped us at Peninsular Pier. Arriving by the hotel's shuttle boat service was a most memorable way to commence a wonderful 5 days at this superb hotel. With its impeccable service and luxury facilities, especially a 5 star outdoor pool area, the temptation is to stay in and ignore the […] many delights of Bangkok. However, transportation from the hotel by river to the Royal Palace and other major sights is made very easy by the frequent boat services from the hotel. Read more

Genuine Expedia guest review

Pretty much everything about the hotel was great. The location is across the river from a lot of tourist sites, but the regular boat shuttle service made it easy to get around, so it wasn't really an issue. The restaurants were excellent, service was friendly and helpful - great concierge service to book excursions - and the rooms were clean, well laid […] out, well sound-insulated and spacious. Of course this all comes with a not inconsiderable price, but well worth it. Read more

Pretty much impeccable service, the hotel is beautiful. The riverside bars and restaurants are really a treat and the spa is fantastic

Genuine Expedia guest review

We've stayed at other places in Bangkok but nothing matches the Peninsula. If you are staying in Bangkok the best location is on the river - great for the ferry boats to many places of interest. Plus the Peninsula runs constant ferry across the River - to the Oriental hotel (wonderful location for romantic dinner watching the river activity) and to […] the Skytrain stop (very handy). Weather in November can be wet - we had a few thunderstorms. Someone who had just arrived from Phuket said "We had no rain" - but now we are on the island of Phuket Tuesday, 27th Nov (the rainy season should be over) - we had torrential rain all day and heavy 3 or 4 hours of rain every day. Perhaps December is as early as we would try it next time - however it is much cooler with the cloudy skies. Read more
