This hotel is great with fantastic service. Everyone was very friendly and the amenities were great. Very nice pool and a small gym. The rooms were nice and spacious. It’s a bit of a distance from the centre but not a major issue to travel with the Grab taxi hailing app. On my departure at 4:00 they arranged a taxi and had a breakfast to go waiting. Definitely recommend!

I’d been looking forward to staying at The Raweekanlaya, so when I ended up with an extra day in Bangkok, I didn’t hesitate to book a last-minute stay. We were there over the weekday, and it seems the hotel is quite popular with plenty of visitors. There was lots of parking available at the entrance.

I booked the Mattana Suite—it was lovely but felt more like a studio than a true "suite," which makes sense for a historical home like this. I didn’t have any issues with street noise, and it was peaceful at night. Unfortunately, our experience was affected by very inconsiderate neighbors. They stomped in the hallways, walked up and down the stairs loudly. They came back at 3 a.m. and slammed their door so hard it woke us up. It took nearly an hour for them to settle down, and I could hear everything.

Breakfast was decent, and you can order eggs directly from the restaurant staff. The staff overall were polite and helpful.

I’m really glad I got to experience this charming, historical place, and I’d recommend it to friends who enjoy this style of getaway. However, I personally wouldn’t return or stay for an extended period.

Property- property is good, there is greenery and pool and gym. Breakfast is buffet with decent spread. Everything offered on the buffet breakfast is fresh and of good quality.

Room- Rooms are extremely small and claustrophobic. There is virtually no air circulation. There is no cupboard to keep your belongings and not even a place to keep your suitcases, you have to keep it on the ground. For 16000 for 2 nights it’s very expensive for what they offered.

Location- there is no metro station anywhere nearby. Nearest metro is 5 kms away. Cabs are very expensive so compared to other hotel we stayed hopeless area.

Hotel staff- very decent, when compared to other properties we stayed this property isn’t comparable in terms of service.

Honest opinion- avoid if possible, isn’t worth the money

Personally, I think this place needs some refurbishment, but it's definitely a lovely place with lots of history & character. The only part that we think is worth our money was the garden area and your excellent team for giving us absolutely great hospitality.

P/S: I actually had the worst massage experience at your hotel. We spent about 5,000 baht for 2 people, 2 hours massage. It was a torturous two hours despite me telling the masseur to soften her strength countless times. I did not give her a tip, and her tonality and behaviour changed after that. I actually came home with a back sore due to the massage at your hotel.

We booked Mattana Deluxe room, supposed to come with a view. Description on the website was beautiful, but in reality we only had a window facing other nearby worn buildings surrounded by ac noises. Our room nr was 2103, which was right next to the inhouse restaurant kitchen, only separated by what sounded like a simple drywall. That means from 5am you can hear absolutely everything happening in the kitchen, loud bangs and noises against the wall, people yelling in the kitchen, cooking noises etc.. I had my earplugs with me, but even these didn't help. So be ready to wake up 5am sharp! Oh and this goes on till late evening... We only stayed 2 nights and checked out at 5am, so there was no point of asking for a room change. There should be buffer zones between guestrooms and restaurants, this is not normal. Shower water heater is weak, water is barely warm. Bed was comfy enough, but loud noises all day won't let you enjoy it. Thin walls, so you can also hear other guests talking. Breakfast was fine, decent selection but coffee machine takes about 4 minutes to brew one small coffee, so be ready for a line. Beautiful small garden with a pool in the middle of the city. Khaosan Road 20 min walk, shopping malls 15 min by Bolt or Grab. Hotel workers are really nice, so i hate to complain about the room... No napping in this room!
