Hotel Baan Wanglang Riverside (Bangkok, Thailand)

Many of the guests to the Baan Wanglang Riverside Hotel have enjoyed the proximity to the river. You can enjoy the view of the river and its boats from the comfort of your private balcony or from the rooftop bar. The views of the lit up temples and building at night are breathtaking.

Guests to the hotel enjoyed the lunch and supper menus available at the onsite restaurants. The Thai restaurant, the Olive Tree, is popular for its wide variety of traditional dishes. The rooftop bar makes fantastic cocktails.

The traditional market next to the hotel gives guests an authentic Thai experience. You can walk around and try all sorts of different foods. Everyone is very friendly and some vendors know some English. Some vendors try to push up their prices for the tourists, you can usually bring them down a bit.

Although the hotel offers fantastic views over the river, the location is not ideal when coming to transportation. The local taxi drivers have difficulty finding the hotel and some are reluctant to drive down the narrow road. You may find yourself walking with your luggage in tow. Be sure to keep the hotels contact number and map with you.

Some guests have reported that they were not happy with the standard of the breakfast. There are not many options and the service staff do not replenish the food as it runs out. It can be difficult to get good service because the restaurant staff do not speak much English.

Although most guests enjoyed their stay, some guests have reported that they were not happy with their rooms. The Website makes the rooms and bathrooms look bigger than they actually are. There are no screens on the windows and so the insects from the river come in through open windows.
