Chakrabongse Villas

We spent 5 nights at the fabulous Chakrabonge Villas, in the river view suite. We loved everything about this hotel. The photos don't really do it justice. The suite was very clean and comfortable and the private terrace overlooking the river was a beautiful setting for the huge delicious breakfast. Mr Ohm and Atom were perfect and charming hosts and helped us with transport to wherever we wanted to go, mostly by tuktuk which we really enjoyed. We only had time to have dinner there one night and it was the best food we had during our trip. We should have skipped some other places and eaten there more instead. The pool was lovely and quiet for early morning dips and the grounds are a joy to walk through. If you hate generic tower chain hotels, stay here, you won't regret it. Also book their airport pickup, it went very smoothly.

A beautiful oasis set in old Bangkok. Nestled next to the busy river Chao Praya. This charming establishment provides welcome respite. If you stay here I highly recommend taking breakfast which is served overlooking the river. The food is delicious and plentiful. Staff are very friendly and helpful. There is a lovely pool surrounded by lush greenery.

only had 3 nights here on a whistlestop visit to bangkok. originally had intended to stay at the intercontinental but husband found this place online and we were really glad we hadn’t stuck with the “corporate” hotel. we had a pool room, the bed was very comfortable and air con made the room lovely and cool in the april 40 degree heat. pick up from and to airport was arranged without a hitch. several breakfast options available all beautifully prepared- and staff on hand helped us plan our short time in bangkok including temple vist, massage and booking a 2 hr river cruise on the Chakrabongse boat. pool area was lovely with shade available. really lovely accommodation that gives you a flavour of bangkok .

Siamo stati solo 2 notti al Chakrabongse Villas e Residences ma è stata una bella ed intensa esperienza. Abbiamo soggiornato nell' appartamento "cinese", adatto per il nostro gruppo di 5 adulti, con 2 camere da letto e due bagni su due livelli, un living con angolo cottura ed una terrazza che dava sulla piscina. L'appartamento è elegantemente arredato con pezzi pregiati di antiquariato cinese. Abbiamo molto apprezzato (dopo un lungo viaggio in aereo) la piscina (quasi privata...) a cui si accede direttamente dalla nostra villa. Chakrabongse è una piccola struttura, pochissime camere disseminate in uno splendido giardino e con una vista mozzafiato sul fiume Chao Phraya e sull'iconico tempio Wat Arun, immagine simbolo di Bangkok. I momenti passati sulle terrazze del Chakrabongse, ipnotizzati dal passaggio frenetico delle barche sul fiume, sono stati indimenticabili (da non perdere il tramonto sul Wat Arun). La location della struttura è perfetta per visitare le principali attrazioni turistiche di Bangkok: il Wat Pho, il Palazzo Reale, il Mercato dei fiori, Chinatown sono a pochi passi dal Chakrabongse. La colazione è il piccolo "neo" dell'hotel: non c'è un buffet e bisogna scegliere il tipo di colazione il giorno precedente, tutto è un pò "smart"...ma la location direttamente sul fiume ci fa dimenticare un pò questa mancanza. Dobbiamo ringraziare Atom, vera "padrona di casa", che è stata prodiga di consigli e di assistenza durante la nostra permanenza: Ha organizzato per noi il tour privato dei canali ed 2 sedute di massaggi Thai dentro la struttura ad un prezzo ragionevole, il transfer verso l'aeroporto ed altri preziosi suggerimenti...GRAZIE! In conclusione: consigliatissimo per chi vuole vivere una vera esperienza "Thai" in un ambiente molto rilassante lasciando fuori dai cancelli il traffico caotico di Bangkok.

Atom and Ohm provided amazing service before our arrival and during our stay. They are the best! The location, setting and a**osphere were a perfect fit for us and really helped us to have a fun and memorable 5 nights in Bangkok. Highly recommended!

Exceptional location and warm hospitality. Our family of four booked one of the river suites and one of the garden rooms for 4 days over Chris**as. First off, the property is a gem in the heart of the historic area. It makes it very easy to walk to many of the top sites, take the ferry, see the flower and medicine markets and more. Secondly, both Atom and Ohm and their warmth made the stay exceptional. They provided so much historical and local knowledge that was pure gold. Thirdly, the owner, the third generation from one of the last kings, was in town, and she kindly sent around champagne for Chris**as. A nice touch. And finally, the river view for dinner and breakfast was lovely. This is a true oasis in the heart of Bangkok. Skip the soulless hotel and experience a Thai boutique villa. Thank you again, Atom and Ohm!

Un paradis dans Bangkok. Rien à dire. La gentillesse du personnel, leur disponibilité, la propreté le cadre la situation géographique. Un séjour magnifique grâce à eux. Le petit déjeuner au bord du fleuve une vue magnifique

Eine Oase in der Großstadt, gelegen im direkt an den Hauptsehenswürdigkeiten Wat Pho und Königsplast. Toller Pool im Garten und Terrasse direkt am Fluss. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und alles sehr sauber. Wir hatten die Möglichkeit nach Auschecken noch den Pool und Dusche zu nutzen.

This is a rather unique property in the old city, small but definitely worthy of your consideration. The rooms were built on the estate of a minor Thai princess, who lives (at least part of the year) in a large house just across a walk way from the rental accommodations. The basic hotel rooms are on the small side but beautifully decorated and comfortable; larger villas are available. The pool is large and attractive; the dining room lovely and right on the edge of the river; and best of all, Ohm in the office was an extraordinary concierge who helped us choose restaurants and activities and then book them for us, always with a smile and always with an insider's knowledge. He is a gem and reason enough alone to stay here.
