we chose the Chatrium on a spur of the moment break and were not disappointed, we had a riverside view and sitting on the balcony on a warm night watching the riverboats and nightlife was magical, the staff at the hotel were very accomodating and nothing was too much trouble for the conceirge staff. Breakfast buffet covered all ranges of food and again nothing was too much trouble. I recommend this hoel for comfort, and friendlessness of staff.

We stayed for three nights and everything was great! The rooms were spacious, clean and comfortable. The breakfast was plentiful with eggs, fruits and plenty of dishes to choose from.

The location seemed a bit out of the way but it was nice to be out of the madness after long days of sightseeing!

We stayed the second time at Chatrium. This time in a std. room with Balcony and River view. Also this time it exceeded our expectations. The Boat Service from Hotel pier to Sky Train station at Taksin Bridge is excellent and waiting time is around 15 min. if you just miss it. Last Boat is at mid night. We had one dinner at the Hotell and this time they offered us a complete package with Food and Drinks included. Very good value for the money.

We stayed at Chatrium riverside for 4 nights in a river view room and I would highly recommend the hotel for both tourists and business patrons. Check agoda early for some super deals - we got a river view room with breakfast for $80 AUD per night.

The good: service is amazing, all of the staff speak excellent English, are attentive, polite and friendly (like most Thai people really!). The buffet breakfast has a huge assortment of foods including: hot western style breakfast goods like bacon, eggs, roast potato and tomato and baked beans. Also tonnes of pastries and cakes, a fruit bar, sushi section, cheeses, Cold salad section, Indian food, Asian noodles/rice dumplings and nice coffee, tea and fruit juice. Great value.

Loved the location, a quick stroll (10 mins or so) to Asiatique, a nice place to check out for a riverside cocktail with the locals. The shuttle ferry was also very helpful.

Room was clean, laundry service very quick, bottled water replenished daily. All in all, a great stay!
