This hotel couldn't have been better. Check in was easy and quick and we were shown to our room in a flash. We booked a standard room through Agoda and felt the rate we payed was excellent for what we got. Found the room to be comfortable and clean and the bed not bad considering we had been warned about... More

Easy access to the water taxis, that depart right outside the hotel. The food was very good on the restaurant, which is extremely pleasant to visit, at any time of day. The views from the rooftop pool, as well as the restaurant, are great. I stayed in room 501 which is on the top floor corner, allowing the best view.... More

Not worth the price. Expensive for what it is. Better hotels in other places of Bangkok (CBD) for the same price. Very disappointed. Noisy place, especially if they give you a so called "scenic city view"!! There is no scenic city view, just noise and disturbances from the bar in front, playing loud and terrible music until late at night.... More

The Navalia was recommended to me and didnt disappoint. If you want to explore the Ko San Road area you could not find a better situated hotel. Backing onto the Chaopraya River the hotel has its own Ferry boat dock. Top tip pay on the boat and not before as its about 20 baht each. From here you can get... More
