The world's number 1 hotel

𝐂𝐀𝐏𝐄𝐋𝐋𝐀 𝐁𝐀𝐍𝐆𝐊𝐎𝐊

An ultra-luxury hotel by the Chao Phraya River, awarded the title of the world's number 1 hotel by The World’s 50 Best Hotels 2024.

Starting from the check-in process, I arrived at the hotel around 11:30 AM and got into my room at 12:30 PM. While waiting, I was served a welcome drink, champagne, along with some snacks — and yes, refills were available. I had quite a few glasses!

The staff were incredibly attentive, from check-in to escorting me to my room, explaining all the details about the hotel thoroughly.

The room I booked was the Riverfront Premier. The view was stunning, offering a clear sight of the Chao Phraya River, especially during sunset — absolutely beautiful. The room was well-organized, not too small or too large. The bed was soft and comfortable, and the minibar included some complimentary drinks and snacks (excluding alcoholic beverages).

One must-try feature when staying here is the Vitality Pool in the spa area. It’s fantastic and, most importantly, free of additional charges.

As for the main swimming pool, I found it a bit underwhelming. The view wasn’t great as it mostly overlooked rooftops.

The hotel offers a variety of activities, with a different schedule each day. In the evening, I visited Stella Bar — the atmosphere was luxurious, and the singer had an amazing voice.

In summary, this hotel is undoubtedly the best, excelling in service, facilities, and the quality of its breakfast, which is second to none in Bangkok.
