This hotel has been paid every compliment possible..but it is so good it's hard not to love it..no wonder so many very old people return year after year..the attention to detail is mind blowing and every experience special..the history is what sets it apart from its main rival across the water..we stayed in both on the same trip and they...

Offer you a timeless unforgettable experience in the elegant & famous white colonial Author's Wing (from 1870) of the legendary Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Bangkok! Feel like Graham Greene or Somerset Maugham in this wonderful garden pavilion for Tea Time or as Drink!

We stayed here for 4 nights on a 3 for 4 offer. This hotel is utterly amazing. We had a river view room which was gorgeous, spotlessly clean and full of lots of nice touches. The room was serviced at least twice a day. Breakfast on the terrace is well worth a visit, stunning views and a vast selection of... More

I have been staying here for 18 years. It has always been outstanding. Some nice upgrades, but simply the benchmark for a global 5 star hotel. The subtlety of the high service has to be seen to be believed. If you can only stay 1 night in Bangkok, then stay here.

Fantastic hotel.Cozy room in the garden wing. Old world charm with exceptional service. Fabulous food at the riverside terrace. Beautiful floral decor and Secret garden by the pool. Courteous and obliging staff. Honesty highly commended. My wallet which was left behind in the room was found intact, untouched even though housekeeping team had been to the room!

Most hotels talk about 5 star service, the MOB delivers! I just got back from 1 week in Maldives & then spent another in bangkok, my favourite asian city & my first time to Mandarin Oriental.
