The Salil Hotel Riverside Bangkok is often celebrated for its peaceful, well-appointed atmosphere and impeccable cleanliness, with travelers consistently commending the pristine conditions and careful upkeep of the establishment. While the hotel's location offers charming riverfront views and convenient shuttle boat services, a handful of guests note it can feel somewhat secluded.
The range of amenities, including a striking pool and engaging family activities, is frequently lauded, although opinions on value for money are divided. Room quality generally receives high marks for tidiness and style, but there have been occasional concerns regarding room allocation.

The hotel was as beautiful as the picture. We spent three nights in a one-bedroom river view, and our room had a pool view rather than a river view. It was really convenient to have a washing machine and I used it every day. The location was not a problem, as Asiatique can be reached on foot, Icon Siam can be reached by the hotel shuttle boat, and Wat Pho can be reached by Orange Line boat from the nearby dock. One complaint was that I emailed them in advance with an inquiry about the reservation, but the answer was not very clear. Also, when I told them I wanted to book a national costume experience, they only replied by asking me to get in touch with the front desk, without any contact information. I ended up looking for my own dressing room email address from the website and contacting them directly. The national costume experience was amazing and a good family memory. Selene, who dressed me up, was very kind and took a lot of photos. The aquatherapy massage, which comes free if you stay for three nights, was a cool time of year, so the water was cold and honestly painful. Most of the staff were smiley and pleasant, and the rooms and courtyard were so beautiful that I felt happy throughout my stay. I had a lot of trouble choosing a hotel, but I'm glad I decided to come here!

We had our 1st vacation since Covid and had a great time in The Salil. When we arrived from the airport, the guys who greated us was fantastic and we immediately felt welcomed as they quickly grabbed the bags from d car and showed us where to check in. Check in was quick and guests are asked to download an app for concierge services. The response from the team when u message them is quick.
We booked the 1 bed room with riverview whcih overlooked the pool and had a nice view of the river and had a crib delivered as well. Room space was ok with a small sitting area by d window. Aircond is super cold at 21 celcius. Bed and pillows were delicious. There r 2 flat screens in d room, one for the bed and one for the sitting area. Note, there is no door or screen partition the one bedroom. The shower is strong n has a bathtub and an automatic toilet washer like in Japan! Bonus! There is a kitchenette with 2 burners, a microwave and a full sized fridge. Plates, cups, wine glasses and cutlery were also provided but no pots n pans nor washing liquid n sponge. And we were happy to see a washer cum dryer as well but no laundry powder. Oh they also provide lounge wear cum sleeping attire n bath robes. Amenities are from Harnn, the spa.
I had 2 body massages at Harnn, Eurasian and Healing n my therapist, Tofu was superb. I actually went back d 2nd time bcoz of her. She knew I had lower back pain m went d extra mile to stretch my back for me. In-house guests grts 25% off.
Everyday when we leave, we r always greated by Mr Au who never failed to welcome us n played with my toddler. The service is excellent. Pool is nice but water soo cold n the staff taking care of the towels very friendly. Breakfast spread was ok but u get bored after 5 days 🤣 Had beers at Taproom and sat on the grass on poofs in the evening with a prety view of the river n lights. They have a boat transfer to Sathon pier and Icon Siam starting from 10am till 5pm and back. If u miss the boat, just take a BTS to Saphan Taksin and a taxi will cost u under thb60 to get back. Walking distance to Asiatique (say 10 mins) and the 3rd massage place called outside on the left called Nuad Dee is superb n cheap at THB 280 for 2 hrs. Get the guy with short hair who wears face powder n lipstick. U wont regret it. I went daily! Also in close proximity to Assumption Cathedral by taxi, 10 to 15 mins.
We definitely will be back!

A lot to digest? Read an AI-generated summary of recent traveller reviews.
Hotel of great charm. Our room (pool view) was very spacious and stylishly furnished. We had at our disposal everything that could be useful for our stay, in addition to slippers and a bathrobe, also flip-flops for the pool and pajamas, a portable umbrella and a vertical steam iron. In the kitchen area there was a Nespresso machine with relative capsules available in addition to the kettle and water was refilled free of charge. In the bathroom, in addition to the shower, there is a beautiful bathtub (if you want to leave the curtain open overlooking the room). Quality bathroom products. The pool is beautiful and has towel service and a bar. The hotel offers many services, some of which, such as the spa, unfortunately we were not able to use due to lack of time. Excellent and varied breakfast. The location on the river bank is very romantic. To move towards the center you can take the hotel boat (but the opening times are a bit limited) or travel by taxi, the hotel is able to obtain a metered service from the taxis while for the return journey it is always necessary to negotiate with the taxi drivers. We really recommend this splendid property and hope to be able to return soon.

I lower the rating only for the meager breakfasts - there is little to be found here for European tastes. No oatmeal, cottage cheese, tasteless yoghurts, omelettes are fried in low-quality oil, no freshly squeezed juices, low-quality butter, rubber bread. Otherwise, everything is at the same level: the service is very good, everyone is helpful, polite, smiling and quickly solves all problems. The hotel is new, fashionable, there are weddings and events almost every day, you need to be prepared for this. We ordered food to the room, the portions were small, but quite tasty. Please note that due to frequent holidays, not all restaurants are open every day. They provide washing powder, which is very helpful - many hotels have a washing machine, but they don’t provide the powder everywhere, you have to go get it and buy a whole pack, which is inconvenient, you won’t spend all of it anyway. The cleaning is good, everything is new, clean, boat rides on the river according to the schedule. What else I would like to change is that the quality of the drinking water provided leaves much to be desired, and the bottles are small and impractical; you could make a water dispenser on the floor. Overall I recommend the place.

The hotel itself is very well finished. The staff are super friendly. But the hotel needs a review of their systems pretty soon. The check-in procedure was bizarre. When you arrive you are greeted by at least 4 hotel staff who direct you up to the 2nd floor in a lift and deposit you in a chair at the hotel’s chocolate shop. We waited there, while one staff member took out passports, for 25 minutes. When I went down the staircase to the hotel’s “reception” (an island desk with two confused looking staff members tapping on keyboards) to ask when we could go to our rooms, I was told they were still checking us in. After another 10 minutes we were finally told our rooms were ready. Except they weren’t. I had emailed the hotel a week before asking for one room with a double bed and one room with twin beds. They had responded that this was fine. However, when we were finally “checked-in” we were told there were no twin rooms available. The twin was for our teenage boys. The hotel told us they couldn’t move us to another room and also told us they were “far from full”. The rooms were lovely (apart from the odd addition of a pointless “kitchen” - who cooks microwave food in a 5 star hotel?). There is no room service after 10:30pm. In an international city like Bangkok, in a supposed 5 star hotel, why does in-room dining stop so early? We’ve stayed in plenty 4 (or even 3) star hotels in our time that offer room service 24 hours - we even stayed in one the week before. We ordered some food from the hotel’s cafes around the pool. We told them we needed to leave in 20 mins so only ordered pastries which were sitting in their display cabinets. Once ordered these took 20 mins to be served - a muffin and two croissants! Basically it’s a very well finished hotel with too many staff, most of whom don’t seem to know what their role is and with bizarrely complicated systems that slow down delivery and the guest experience. With so many competitive 4 and 5 star hotels available in Bangkok, I’d try an alternative if I were you. Ordering food from the hotel’s

I had an unforgettable stay at The Salil Riverside in Bangkok. This hotel truly sets the bar high for luxury and hospitality. From the moment I arrived, the warm and attentive staff made me feel right at home.
The riverside location is absolutely stunning, offering breathtaking views of the Chao Phraya River. It was so relaxing to sip my coffee while watching the boats go by. The rooms are beautifully designed—spacious, modern, and impeccably clean, with thoughtful touches that made my stay extra special.
The dining options are phenomenal, especially the riverside restaurant. The food was fresh, flavorful, and authentically Thai. I also appreciated the variety at breakfast—everything from local delicacies to international favorites. Sujit was very helpful and made us experience new foods and always ready to assist us.
The amenities are top-notch, from the serene infinity pool overlooking the river to the well-equipped fitness center. The shuttle boat service made exploring Bangkok super convenient and added a touch of adventure.
Overall, The Salil Riverside exceeded all my expectations. Whether you’re here for relaxation, romance, or a bit of city exploration, this place has it all. I can’t wait to come back! Highly recommend!

The hotel has a strategic location on Chao Praya and has an outdoor area overlooking the river very well organized with a beautiful swimming pool and restaurants of various kinds , In three days in Bangkok we had dinner every night in the hotel at Nava restaurant where we enjoyed delicious dishes of both fish and meat recommended by the talented and super friendly Anowar. Also the breakfast is very rich and quality. Finally, the free shuttle service on the river has greatly simplified our movements and made it enormously easier. Highly recommended!

All the staff here have been amazingly helpful and friendly especially Aom and Au on our last night waiting for our late flight out of Bangkok. We had a river view room and worth that bit extra to watch the river traffic and the sun setting between the buildings across the river . The pool and the facilities around it make a welcome relief from sight seeing and is a little oasis. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again and recommend to friends and family.
