Sheraton Royal Orchid Hotel & Towers: Reviews

Overall

The Sheraton Royal Orchid provides spacious, modern rooms and all the comforts a Westerner can expect in Bangkok, but be prepared to rub shoulders with lots of large American tour groups. The riverside location yields gorgeous views and the convenience of a water taxi stop. Adjacent to major shopping, and the in-house Thai restaurant is outstanding. If you're brave, sample some snacks from the street vendors who line the road between the hotel and shopping mall next door. And be advised, this is Bangkok, not Singapore! Don't be surprised that the water in the bathrooms isn't potable (the hotel supplies plenty of iced, purified water for drinking) and reveals a grimy gray color when it accumulates in the tub while you shower. Bottom line, a nice, comfortable place to stay, although somewhat lacking in local color.
