Perfect location, excellent food and resort.

Very classy hotel.

Hotel was nice but felt a little dated. A guest on our floor was smoking and it got in the vents. No big deal but not ideal.

Amazing experience and so much fun.

One of the best experiences.

I thought it was going to be different. It was okay but nothing amazing.

Fucking awesome.

Clean rooms, great customer service, amazing food.

Very professional staff, very clean facilities, excellent spot in town.

This place is a true gem, beautiful inside and outside.

Absolutely stunning property, one of a kind space.

Charming old world hotel in great location. The owner and staff could not be nicer.

The hotel is very tired. Apparently, there are renovated rooms, but I didn’t have one. The breakfast buffet was good enough. The restaurant was very basic, though I did have a good green curry there. The Kamala area, where the hotel is located, is about an hour from the Old Town and it was difficult to get a Grab to pick me up. A taxi would have cost about 700 baht each way. In truth, the hotel was fine, so let’s no as you don’t expect 4.5/5 stars as it is currently rated.

Very high end. The staff is extremely attentive and the amenities outstanding. Great location. You almost don’t want to leave to see the sites!

So interesting. I learned a lot about Thailand. The Reclining Buddha, Standing Buddha and Emerald Buddha are sights to check off your bucket list.

Interesting and an experience to observe. I am it an adventurous eater and did not feel comfortable eating any of the street food by that time in the evening.

A highlight of my visit to Thailand. The Save the Elephants reserve is the largest elephant rescue in Asia. It is an ethical reserve (be sure to check if you go elsewhere). It was amazing to be so close to these magnificent creatures, though you cannot touch them.

The shopping is meh, but seeing the train pass through the market and experiencing th floating market is definitely worth the hour and a half ride from Bangkok.

Do it!

We really appreciated the location of this hotel. Very Clean. We do prefer a room with a dedicated shower over a tub as we never use tubs in hotels. The staff really did not have a person who spoke English well which made it a little difficult to communicate needs for restaurants, taxi service, massage places, etc. They were all very friendly. Excellent included breakfast.

Loved this hotel. The only thing I have to say is that it's perhaps a bit out of the city to afford walkability. The restaurant needs updating and brightening, but the food and service was very good. There is construction noise across the river which of course is loud if you are trying to relax by the pool. But, it was a favored on this trip. Employees were so nice.

Oh my goodness! What a luxurious escape this was. We did nothing for our three nights here besides sit by the pool and eat a the variety of restaurants they have in the resort. The only restaurant that was a big disappointment in menu and service was the one they tout a lot which is close to the ocean and has an ocean view. Seafood options for a seafood menu were minimal. We were told no reservations were required. They clearly were. Waiters were a bit harried and unfriendly, which was very unusual for this resort.

We liked this hotel. Very friendly staff. Good breakfast and good dinner, although the dining room is a bit institutional. Location excellent for connection with Tuk Tuk taxi and our guide for the day. Four star only because I likely would not choose it if I wanted to walk anywhere in the evenings.

I'm giving this a four star only because I know we came in on the eve of the New Year. We did not like the location. The lobby rugs were not vacuumed well. The rooms were spit shine clean. The bar restaurant was fun but touted a view of the city. There was not. I would not stay here again and it would receive a 3 star review in a different season.

State rooms are incredibly tight. Staff incredibly friendly and accomodating. Good food.

Beautiful hotel in a wonderful location! The overall tone of the Anantara Riverside is very peaceful. It is a large size property with buildings only about 6 stories high - So doesn't feel like an urban hotel but, you are in the city - and has a gorgeous pool. Their sister property is right behind the hotel and is 27 stories high with a wonderful rooftop bar/restaurant (SEEN) that is a great way to get an aerial view of the city. The hotel boat shuttles are so nice (and included) and are a great way to experience life on the river and they provide transportation to ICONSIAM and the boat ferry station. The customer service at the hotel is top notch. EVERYONE from the bellman, concierge, housekeeping, and people in the restaurants was warm and attentive. We did have a little challenge when we first arrived and the manager, Hana, was quick to help us resolve the issue and was so understanding. Her level of service was much appreciated. Also, they serve THE BEST breakfast in Thailand!! In addition, the evening show with dinner was delicious and entertaining. The rooms are incredibly comfortable and the bed is heavenly! Would definitely recommend this hotel!

Really nice boutique style hotel located in the old city. The rooms are very comfortable and spacious. Great bed! The hotel offers free 10 minute massages everyday and a local activity - ie flower arranging - which is a nice experience. The breakfast offering was pleasant , just not exceptional. LOVE the spa which is located just around the corner. AMAZING place!!!

This is the nicest hotel room we have ever had!!! Truly exceptional. Big beautiful bed in an enormous bedroom with sliding glass doors to our private pool and patio. Gorgeous bathroom with claw foot free standing tub and enormous shower. Wonderful bath products and fabulous slippers. The common areas were very nice too. Beautiful outdoor pool that over looks the beach. But be aware that there are no beach chairs at this hotel. Beach chairs are available from a public offering. Gorgeous sun sets each day!! Delicious breakfast. And "buggy" rides available from your room to anywhere you need to go on the property. This hotel is set vertically up a major hillside. So not very walkable.

Comfortable little hotel outside crazy Siem Reap! Room was simple, very clean, with a comfortable bed. Customer service was top notch. Breakfast was basic.

Wonderful hotel in Hanoi! VERY welcoming staff, especially Quan Hong! He was like a ray of sunshine every time we saw him. So warm and friendly. Our first room (while clean and bright) was very small and he kindly found us a little larger room when we returned. The breakfast was very delicious and our waitress always had a big smile - I am sorry I don't remember her name - and was warm and welcoming. Great location. While walking in Hanoi is a challenge, this hotel is accessible to both the old quarter and the lake!

Wonderful way to experience Ha Long Bay! Ha, the general manager, is doing a fabulous job running this cruise experience. He has a warm demeanor and is engaging with both the guests and the staff. Unfortunately, our first room we stayed in did not look like the pictures of the room we had booked. It was incredibly disappointing and uncomfortable. Ha was able to move us to a suite for our second night which changed our whole experience. If this had not happened, I would have been very disappointed. It was a game changer. The common spaces on the boat - the dining room and the top deck - were very nice and comfortable. LOVED the cooking class on how to make spring rolls. So fun! Food was plentiful and tasty. Breakfast leaned more towards serving an Asian palate than an American one. I just can't eat soup for breakfast! But, if you asked for something different they were quick to make whatever you requested. I am happy we did the 2 night experience - especially once we got a nice room! - but also, we had the opportunity for the day trip on the Sunshine boat to kayak and explore. The lunch on that boat was INCREDIBLE! The best meal we had on Ha Long Bay and the tour guide was terrific! I am really glad we had this opportunity to explore this beautiful part of Vietnam. The only sad piece was all of the plastic trash in the water. Truly shocking!

Great hotel near the airport! Beautiful hotel lobby and pool. Delicious on site restaurant.
