I stayed at the Peninsula Bangkok December 2011 and it was through and through an amazing hotel experience.
ROOM: We stayed in one of the larger suites which was huge and beautifully decorated. I imagine even the basic rooms would be quite large and I'd be quite satisfied staying in one in the future. Everything was clean, gorgeous and the service was flawless.
POOL: The pool is gorgeous! We were able to get a cabana/bale easily and someone came by often to check if anything was needed/drop off water and little treats throughout the day. The pool itself is lovely with multiple tiers and a great place to relax after being in the sun.
BREAKFAST: Please, have breakfast here (and try to get a room package that includes it!). The breakfast buffet is one of the BEST I have ever seen - a huge array of delicious food, and plus you can order a la carte as well. Take it sitting by the river and enjoy the beautiful view. Later you can take one of the Peninsula ferries across the river!
Overall an A+ stay. We can't wait to return! You can read the full report if you'd like along with photographs here on my blog: http://www.featherfactor.com/2012/01/bangkok-peninsula-hotel-water-ferries.htmlMore
