Mandarin Oriental Bangkok

A perfect place for families! The hotel has a little game where kids collect stamps at various spots around the hotel. If they collect two stamps, they get an ice cream, and if they collect all of them, they receive a small gift, which is a puzzle. The hotel also features a "Little Fans Club" where children can play independently with board games, video games, and plenty of toys, allowing parents to enjoy some alone time. There's a shuttle boat service to ICONSIAM and the spa. The hotel's spa is absolutely amazing! It was the best spa experience I've ever had! Although it's a bit pricey, it's definitely worth it! The pool offers fruit-infused iced water, making it a truly relaxing and restful experience. 👍

When I booked this hotel online, the pictures made the rooms look a bit dated, maybe even old. However, after checking in, I felt the entire hotel had a luxurious charm that comes with age. The lobby, bar, and even the smoking area were all exquisitely designed. The hotel service was excellent, and it was very quiet.

Mandarin Oriental never disappoints; it's consistently excellent. The Bangkok Mandarin Oriental, with its 150-year history, exudes an understated luxury and old-money charm. From the moment I checked in, I felt incredibly well-cared for. As our room wasn't ready, we went for a SPA session and visited the ICONSIAM mall across the river. I hadn't received the check-in email that was promised, and I even mentioned it to the front desk when we returned in the evening. However, the gentleman at the front desk was incredibly patient and enthusiastic. This trip, we mostly stayed at the Four Seasons because we were traveling with our child. We booked the Mandarin Oriental for our last day specifically to experience their globally renowned SPA. To my surprise, as soon as we arrived, they gave my child crayons, a drawing book, and a stamp collection booklet. It was incredibly thoughtful! I felt like we could have easily stayed here longer with the kids to enjoy their children's activities. Upon entering our room, we also received welcome fruits and drinks, which was a lovely touch and made for a very comfortable experience. Also, the slippers at the Mandarin Oriental are, in my opinion, the most comfortable I've ever worn. I absolutely love it here.

I've always been a fan of Mandarin Oriental, but this was my first stay at their Bangkok property. I must say, this 150-year-old hotel still maintains an incredibly high standard of service. Time only adds to its charm, never becoming a burden. The moment you step into the hotel lobby, you're greeted by a lavish and captivating Southeast Asian decor. Tropical greenery 🪴, vintage red and green sofas, and extravagant chandeliers create a distinct personality! It's undeniably luxurious, opulent, and flamboyant. Upon entering the room, the colors become much more subdued, leaning towards a minimalist European style. My favorite parts were the bathroom and the floor-to-ceiling balcony windows! The gray, white, and deep blue tiles on the balcony are retro and sophisticated, setting the base tone. Silver vintage faucets add a touch of grandeur to the design, making the bathroom itself incredibly photogenic. The floor-to-ceiling windows allow sunlight to embrace every guest, offering panoramic views of the Chao Phraya River's every change. From the moment you step out of your car at the lobby entrance, you're consistently attended to by the staff. The doorman immediately presents a Jasmin garland as a welcome and escorts you to the front desk before leaving. There's no unnecessary waiting; check-in begins promptly, and your requests are met one by one. When I mentioned it was for a birthday celebration, a cake 🍰 was arranged in the room immediately. Upon entering the room, the floor manager thoughtfully brings a welcome drink and explains all the room amenities, providing 24-hour service on the floor. This level of attentiveness makes guests feel secure and at ease. Taking the shuttle boat daily to and from the Spa, Gym, and shopping center is also a unique experience. I have to say, the gym facilities are top-notch, and the flow design is excellent. From the moment you enter until you leave, the staff greets you with a smile. Although there was a minor issue with the lights in the room, slightly affecting the experience, the front desk manager immediately provided a solution and offered a gift. Their response time was within three minutes. Who wouldn't love a hotel like this, with such service and such an experience? I will definitely be staying again!

Even an old Ferrari is still a Ferrari. This place is perfect for a staycation, and I'll definitely be back!

This hotel is worth staying at. The location is excellent, making it very convenient to get to ICONSIAM. The pool is great and the kids loved it, and the gym is absolutely top-notch. The overall service was also excellent. I highly recommend it and will definitely come back again.

Elegant environment, warm and welcoming service.

This century-old hotel is really impressive, and definitely has that old-money charm. The quality is consistently high across the board. My only minor gripe is that almost all the drinks in the minibar aren't complimentary, which feels a little stingy considering the premium price point. You'd expect at least some free beverages at this level.

Huge thanks to Trip.com for the heartfelt recommendation! I was incredibly satisfied with every aspect of the hotel. 😊 As I prepare to leave beautiful Bangkok, a city of contrasts, much like the ever-flowing universe – constantly absorbing the joys, sorrows, and everything in between from the vast world, enriching us in return. My heartfelt thanks to the hotel butler for their exceptional service; both my son Chan-chan and I were absolutely delighted. To be honest, our trip to Bangkok wasn't as smooth as I'd imagined, but thankfully, everything worked out in the end. I'm also grateful to my fitness coach for accompanying me throughout the trip to Thailand, helping alleviate travel fatigue and ensuring my safety. Every morning, we'd wake up slowly amidst love and positive energy, exchanging good mornings. But for some reason, the moment the sun set, a profound weariness would suddenly wash over us. We'd then go to sleep filled with resentment, after arguments and quarrels. The next morning, as the sun shone by the Chao Phraya River, I'd regret my actions from the night before, wishing I hadn't been so short-tempered or said things that hurt his pride. And in that very moment, oh God! I realized this is karma, this is fate. Repeating the past day after day, waking up with an optimistic mindset, only to go to sleep complaining and angry. The second and third days were much the same, a cycle I couldn't break free from. Luckily, Chan-chan was always there to encourage me to overcome my inner demons. I also prayed for divine help, but the gloom was like a persistent shadow, hard to shake off completely. Finally, thanks again to Trip.com for the recommendation. And a special thanks to my precious son for his help. He's lived in Southeast Asia for years and took care of everything for me. We arrived in Bangkok via Thai Airways, and as soon as we disembarked, we saw lovely staff members whisking us to the immigration hall in a golf cart. The immigration officers processed all our documents in mere seconds.
