This 149-year-old hotel is steeped in history and exudes a rich cultural heritage. The property is impeccably maintained, and the service is truly unparalleled; they go above and beyond to make you feel exceptionally valued. Even the laundry service, returned to your room in exquisitely packaged boxes, adds a touch of ceremony. Be aware that a formal dress code is enforced in nearly all areas, except for breakfast. The hotel offers a very convenient shuttle boat to Iconsiam, departing every 30 minutes. This establishment truly embodies an 'old money' aesthetic, so if you prefer a more modern, trendy atmosphere, it might not be the right fit.

It's been nine years since my last visit to the Mandarin Oriental Bangkok, and I was delighted to find the hotel renovated. The rooms feel quite new, yet they beautifully retain their classic style. Both the breakfast and the Thai restaurant were superb, and the service remains as attentive as ever. The shuttle boat service to the shopping mall across the river is especially convenient. When our river cruise returned late, a quick call to the front desk resulted in them efficiently sending someone to pick us up – truly impressive service!
