  • Very inexpensive alternative with decent location.
    The area isnt so nice. I think that all the car repair shops and spare part shops are in the neighbourhood.
    Very hard for taxi drivers to find.

    Unique Qualities: Roof terrace with awesome views to river. Few air con rooms, but fan rooms has balcony with river view.

    Double fan room for 450bahts/night.

  • It was funny to enter that hotel with backpack, dirty and tired. Little bit contrast, eh?

    There are 39 floors, and we stayed in 19th floor; superb views!
    There is a decent priced(really, cheaper than minibar!) bar at 38th floor called V9. Must place for a drink or two.

    Unique Qualities: There are evrything you may need;swimming pool, sauna, gym, bars, restaurants, limousine service, spa, massage,...

    We got the room for 2880 bahts/52 Euros, thanks to Winston(travelagent4thailand).

     Hey, thanks for the tip! I'm going there in about a month and staying at the River View Guest House. It was good to see a photo of the view beforehand. Thanks again
