Second ground floor room two single beds with small balcony. Absolute gem of a place, imperative you take written direction from the hotel with regards of how to... More

The resort is just beside Wat Rakhang and is in a really narrow lane but once you're inside, the beauty of the place is stunning. I reached the place by using the airport metro till the Phaya Thai station and then a taxi from there till the hotel, however definitely carry a print out of the directions printed in Thai... More

I have stayed in Bangkok 2 other times but really did not care for it until we stayed at the Ibrick Resort. Lovely neighborhood, and beautifully situated on the river which was so entertaining and relaxing. Take the water taxi's for transportation. They are cheap and fun. If you use taxi's bring the directions in Thai. We will return!

Arrived at midnight having arranged an airport pickup. Was a little worried when the driver could not find the place and had to use his cell phone to ask for directions. But it all worked out. We had the room right on the river. Could not have asked for anything better. Excellent breakfast of fresh fruit and coffee. The river... More

We were priviledged to first stay at this gem shortly after its opening in 2004. So today when someone asked my advice on accommodation in Bangkok I jumped onto Tripadvisor so see how this very special little place is doing. I had mixed feelings when I saw its much lower than expected ranking. Firstly I thought it has gone to... More

Booked this after having had more than a few stays over the other side of the river in bass-pumping night-club range. Beautiful little property right on the water. Delightful rooms, if smaller than the pictures would suggest, but more than roomy enough for a comfortable stay. Moonlight room had THE BEST shower- roof open to the evening air (very atmospheric;...

We booked the River Room and our wonderful "American" breakfast was right on the Chao Praya River! Great room (clean, comfortable beds, view of lit up grand palace at night), good bathroom, staff was welcoming and helpful, AC in... More

Be sure to carry a copy of the Thai cab instructions with you .. you can always walk in from Wat Rawkang after you have been here once but you need a little help finding the place the first time. Once you do, you know you have found something special. You may not even feel you need to leave... you... More
