This is a unique, beautiful character property. A haven of peace and calm yet so close to the Grand Palace, National Museum etc. Staff were lovely. Restaurant was excellent - first class breakfast and delicious evening meals in a wonderful setting. But the hotel is quirky, and won't suit everyone. There's no access on foot or by car. Hard to believe, but true. Only access is from opposite bank of the river using the hotel's own ferry, which responds quickly and operates 24/7. The hotel has loads of historic character, but the facilities in our room were not as good as they should have been. The bath shower was unuseable due to its design, there was no box of hand tissues and no chairs other than a hard wooden desk chair. The aircon was very old and didn't work very effectively (e.g. no swing.) There was a kettle in the room but the cable was too short to reach the socket. We asked the staff for an extension cable but didn't get one. There was a beautiful lounge upstairs, but the lights were hardly ever on in the evening, nor was the aircon. Overall a wonderful place to stay but several basic practical issues need to be addressed.
