"Evoking a London-like elegance (with British racing vehicles out front) yet unmistakably Thai thanks to a custom tuk-tuk, I found the hotel’s warm, toffee-toned public spaces and grand views over the Chao Phraya and riverside homes especially appealing. The Peninsula’s riverside swimming pool is among the city’s best and provides a perfect way to beat Bangkok’s heat." - Jenny Adams
"Travelers from around the globe flock to Bangkok each year for New Year’s Eve, drawn by the dazzling firework displays and bustling markets. For those seeking a plush retreat for the last hours of 2024, The Peninsula Bangkok, recognised with two MICHELIN Keys, is an unrivalled choice, especially for those with a taste for indulgence. Nestled along the Chao Phraya River, this hotel offers everything needed for a night of pure luxury. Opt for one of the New Year’s Eve specials, from themed dinners to intimate in-room celebrations, and toast the new year with an experience you won’t soon forget." - Faye Bradley
"This grande-dame hotel on the western bank of the Chao Phraya River offers rooms decorated with teak, gold trim, and jewel-toned silks, along with sweeping views across the river to the city’s skyscraper skyline." - Chris Schalkx
"A riverside stalwart with neutral marble-and-teak interiors that leans into contemporary art and wellness: the hotel partners with the Bangkok Art Biennale, hosts rotating artist residencies, and runs forward-thinking spa programs featuring guided-meditation apps and Ayurvedic sleep patches. Culinary experimentation shows up in Mei Jiang’s secret vault–like kitchen with plant-forward tasting menus inspired by Chinese flavors, while a generous activities calendar—complimentary yoga at a nearby shrine, sourdough workshops and more—complements its 367 silk-accented rooms." - Chris Schalkx
"Located on the left bank of the Chao Phraya River, the Peninsula is one of the most consistently high-ranked hotels in the city, in particular for its attention to service. The rooms are decorated in white and comforting, honey-colored wood, with teak or carpeted floors and marble bathrooms; they all feature views over the river and city. The slim, three-tiered pool sits riverside, so guests can lounge in Thai-style gazebos—called sala —while sipping cocktails and watching Bangkok life literally sail by. In fact, a large part of the fun in staying here is the proximity to the river. Free, constantly running shuttle boats will ferry guests to three different piers along the river; the views of river life, traditional wooden Thai boats, and the high-rises along the way are unforgettable. The Peninsula is the tallest building in the vicinity, so the rooms on the upper floors offer yet another perspective—a near-bird’s-eye view of the city that is both exhilarating and potentially vertigo-inducing."
