Shangri La Hotel Bangkok
Shangri La Hotel Bangkok Reviews
One of the best Hotels in Bangkok! Aug 31, 2007
The hotel is conveniently located on the river and within walking distance to public transportation. I’m not a big buffet lover but the breakfast was outstanding.

Nov 19, 2004This beautiful hotel right on the banks of the Chao Phraya River was our home away from home for 4 nights in November of 2004. There are two different wings of the hotel, the main wing (called the Shangri-La Wing) and the Krungthep Wing, which is supposed to be a little nicer and fancier. We got the original room on Priceline for $60 a night, (wow!) and then called in and upgraded to the Krungthep Wing for about $20 a night more - VERY WORTH IT!!! Really, if you stay at this hotel, make sure you stay in the Krungthep Wing; it's amazing. Every single room has a private balcony that is over the Chao Phraya River, and sitting out there any time of the day is a true joy. The entrance to the Krungthep wing is directly next to the Skytrain station, which is by far the best, cheapest, and easiest way to get around the city. The hotel can also arrange for a personal boat ride through the back canals of Bangkok, and that was wonderful; and they did it for a great cost, I think it was $20 total for all three of us, for about 3 hours. Fantastic. We also took advantage of their drivers service to and from the airport, which was a huge help to us, and a reasonable price. Please contact me if you want anymore info on this great hotel, it was wonderful. Part of the Southeast Asia Trip 2004 travel blog |

As a footnote - I know this has nothing to do with Wat Pho, but I can highly recommend the tailor in the Shangri-la Hotel - sounds like it would be expensive, but was the equivalent of 1400 baht for a tailor made shirt - you can design what you want with the cuffs, sleeve length, collars etc - and they have a great range of fabrics to choose from… Wat Pho |
