This charming boutique hotel has a dramatic view of Wat Arun and The Chao Praya River. Located in Tha Tien and close to the Flower Market and Wat Po, ferries, subway, and taxis of all types are also convenient. Attentive staff made this stay a pleasure. Roof top bar should not be missed. We look forward to returning.
