Four Seasons Hotel Bangkok at Chao Phraya River

I stayed at Four Seasons Bangkok for one night from July 1 to 2, and it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment we arrived, the staff’s warm hospitality made us feel truly welcome. Every detail, from the elegant design to the attentive service, was flawless. Special thanks to Wow, who kindly assisted us at check-in, and Ms. Ha Ryeong Lee, who prepared a lovely birthday amenity that made the stay even more memorable. We were also touched by the thoughtful farewell from the team who saw us off as we headed to the airport. Thanks to every staff member we had the pleasure of meeting, this stay was perfect in every way. The facilities including the pool, spa, and fitness center were all exceptionally well maintained, and the room itself was in excellent condition. There was truly nothing to fault. Although the hand wash and body lotion amenities in the room initially seemed to be diluted, the hotel addressed the issue immediately once we mentioned it, which we greatly appreciated. 7월 1일부터 1박 동안 포시즌스 방콕에 머물렀고, 잊을 수 없는 경험이었습니다. 도착 순간부터 직원들의 따뜻한 환대 덕분에 진심으로 환영받는 기분이 들었습니다. 웅장한 로비, 세련된 객실 디자인과 세심한 서비스까지 모든 면에서 완벽했습니다. 체크인을 도와주신 Wow님, 생일 어메니티를 준비해주신 이하령님, 공항으로 떠날 때 배웅해주신 직원분들께 특히 감사드립니다. 마주친 모든 스태프 덕분에 이번 숙박은 완벽하게 느껴졌습니다. 수영장, 스파, 피트니스 센터 등 모든 시설이 훌륭하게 관리되어 있었고, 객실 상태도 매우 좋았습니다. 정말 흠잡을 곳이 없었습니다. 다만 객실에 비치된 핸드워시와 바디로션 어메니티에 물이 섞인 듯한 느낌이 있었지만, 이 부분은 호텔에 말씀드리자 즉시 조치해 주셔서 감사했습니다.

Very chic and sophisticated all round. The restaurants are sooo good in terms of flavor and services. Staff are really pleasant and I must thank Kochakorn Bunsirimongkolchai who helped me with all my enquiries and bookings! Love BKK, and this property truly stands out!

It was my first-ever trip to Thailand, although Bangkok had long been on my bucket list of places to visit. I first heard about the city back in the 1990s when, as a child, I watched the TV drama Bangkok Hilton starring Nicole Kidman. Since then, Bangkok remained in my imagination, and during this trip, I was especially drawn to the Chao Phraya River — the one image that had stayed with me from that show and which I was eager to finally see with my own eyes. What I didn’t expect was to experience Thai hospitality in such a remarkable way — the way Four Seasons Hotel Bangkok at Chao Phraya River delivers it. It’s truly heartfelt and embracing, from the very first welcome to the final handshake before your car departs for the airport and the plane carries you back to Dubai. My stay at Four Seasons Bangkok was brief — just two nights — but the moments they created and the emotions they sparked will stay with me forever. The check-in experience was incredibly warm and genuinely welcoming, setting the perfect tone for the stay ahead. From the very first greeting, the team made me feel not like a guest, but like someone truly expected. Every detail was handled with grace and attentiveness, making the arrival process seamless and personal. It was the kind of welcome that instantly puts you at ease and makes you feel at home, even in a completely new place. I was genuinely touched by the thoughtful welcome amenities awaiting me in the room — a beautifully curated selection that reflected both creativity and care. What made it truly special was the personalized touch: a photo of me printed on a plate, which instantly created a sense of warmth and connection. It was an unexpected surprise that felt deeply personal. A small gesture, yet one that spoke volumes about the attention to detail and truly guest-centric philosophy of the Four Seasons team. One of the highlights of my stay was dinner at Yu Ting Yuan, the hotel’s signature Cantonese restaurant. The setting was exquisite — a serene, artfully designed space overlooking the reflective lotus pond, which added a touch of magic to the evening. Every dish was thoughtfully prepared, from the rich, aromatic soup to the tender chicken and perfectly seasoned fried rice, all served with quiet elegance. The service was impeccable, with each course presented with knowledge and grace, making the entire experience feel both intimate and unforgettable. Mornings at Four Seasons began with a truly exceptional breakfast buffet — a perfect blend of variety, freshness, and elegance. From tropical fruits and freshly baked pastries to made-to-order eggs and Asian specialties, every item was beautifully presented and full of flavor. The atmosphere was calm yet vibrant, with attentive service and river views that made each morning feel like a moment of quiet indulgence. An evening at BKK Social Club was the perfect way to unwind — the ambiance was effortlessly chic, with a glamorous nod to the golden age of Buenos Aires. The cocktails were expertly crafted, each one a unique blend of bold flavors and artistic presentation. With its stylish crowd, warm lighting, and impeccable service, the bar felt like a destination in itself within the heart of the hotel. Bangkok itself was an exhilarating mix of contrasts — vibrant street life set against serene temples, and centuries-old tradition flowing seamlessly into modern luxury. The energy of the city is infectious, from the lively markets to the calm boat rides along the Chao Phraya River. It’s a place that surprises you at every turn, leaving you inspired, intrigued, and already planning your return. Special thanks to Killian Crowley, Director of Guest Experience; Christina Purba, Hotel Manager; and Lubosh Barta, Regional Vice President and General Manager — your personal attention and leadership truly elevated the experience and made this stay unforgettable. What truly impressed me was that there was no need to ask or remind — the team anticipated every need and acted on it within seconds… quite literally. It’s the kind of intuitive service that feels effortless yet leaves a lasting impression.

We loved every moment of our stay at the Four Seasons Bangkok. I booked through my Amex Platinum card, and our rate came with a room upgrade, buffet breakfast & $100 credit to be used at the hotel. The property was beautiful, the rooms were luxurious, Byredo products, and the breakfast buffet was stunning. We arrived late on our first night and went to their French restaurant, Palmier, for dinner. The oysters and Champagne were a nice way to start our stay. We went to their bar, BKK Social, three times and loved the bartenders and their creative cocktails. We spent a few days at the pool, having lunch and drinks poolside. The only thing I didn't care for was the bathroom set-up. The bathroom is essentially a pod with wrap-around doors. The double sinks, bathtub, shower, and toilet are all visible when you enter and are in the room. The toilet has a glass door, so there is absolutely no privacy. You have to shut the entire pod with sliding doors to have privacy.... or at least I do. I didn't feel comfortable going to the "bathroom" when my boyfriend was relaxing in the room, as he could see and hear what was going on. This may not bother some people, but it's of note. It wouldn't stop me from returning, but some ladies might be interested in this small detail.

Four Seasons Bangkok is absolutely stunning. The setting along the Chao Phraya River is spectacular and gives the entire property a serene, resort-like feel, despite being right in the heart of the city. The pool area in particular is a highlight, beautifully designed, expansive, and directly overlooking the river, it truly feels like an escape from the hustle and bustle of Bangkok. Service throughout our stay was excellent, warm, polished, and attentive in true Four Seasons fashion. The rooms are massive, sleek, and extremely comfortable, though they lean heavily into modern design. If you’re looking for traditional Thai touches or decor, this property might not be your ideal fit, it’s very contemporary and cosmopolitan. That said, everything is thoughtfully done, from the art-filled public spaces to the elegant dining options. While it may not have the classic Thai ambiance some travelers seek, it more than makes up for it with impeccable service, world-class facilities, and one of the most impressive urban resort settings we’ve experienced. Highly recommended.
