Shangri-La Hotel Bangkok

If there is heaven in earth this hotel could just be it - the staff, the food, the ambience, the rooms, the proximity to the river and the bts make this an experience every human should have at least once in a lifetime.

Amazing location, clean property, nice breakfast

This is one of the grand old riverfront hotels. It is almost like a heritage relic the fitout is so old! The location is convenient to the ferry and skyrail. The building itself is enormous- we were in the south wing which is about 400m walk from reception along endless corridors. The check in was very drawn out and procedural and impersonal. It’s an ok place to stay but I didn’t love it.

Breakfast buffet was amazing right across from icon Siam which is a beautiful mall with so much culture highly recommend

I recently spent a wonderful staycation at Shangri-La Bangkok, and it exceeded all my expectations. From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed with genuine Thai hospitality that made me feel instantly relaxed and cared for. I stayed in a Horizon Club River View Room, and waking up to the panoramic views of the Chao Phraya River was simply amazing. The room was spacious, comfortable, and beautifully maintained. One of my favorite parts of the stay was the access to the Horizon Club Lounge. I loved spending the afternoon there with a cup of coffee while enjoying the city views, and the evening cocktails and canapés were a fantastic bonus. The hotel’s riverside swimming pool is absolutely beautiful and feels like a peaceful oasis in the middle of Bangkok. It was the perfect place to unwind and escape the busy city atmosphere. Breakfast at NEXT2 Café was another highlight. There was an impressive variety of food, from local Thai dishes to international favorites, and the riverside setting made the experience even more enjoyable. The service throughout the hotel was consistently warm, friendly, and attentive. During my stay, I also experienced the Volti Italian Sunday Table at Volti Tuscan Grill & Bar, and I highly recommend it. The brunch offered a great selection of antipasti, fresh seafood, pizza, delicious main courses, and desserts. The riverside atmosphere was lovely, and being able to enjoy the hotel’s pool afterward made the day feel even more special. What impressed me most was how Shangri-La Bangkok combines luxury, comfort, and authentic hospitality so effortlessly. It is the kind of place where you can truly slow down, relax, and enjoy every moment. I would definitely return and highly recommend Shangri-La Bangkok to anyone looking for a memorable riverside stay in Bangkok, whether for a staycation, a romantic getaway, or a special celebration.
