The Quarter Chao Phraya by UHG

Passable for a few days if you get a good rate but really nothing special. The garden rooms are nice and pleasant though with the sounds of birdsong. There is a convenience store below in the garden. The pool area is a bit noisy with constant music being played until late at night. The staff seem a bit young and inexperienced which leads to you gaining the impression that they don’t really know what they’re doing. One of them forgot to renew my room card for the extra day I stayed and therefore it expired at 12pm one day which meant that my room was unlocked all day which was a total shock. The seating area by the riverside are very nice though and the gym is perfectly adequate if a little small.

It was a rather negative experience I wanted to relax on my wedding anniversary, but instead, I encountered disturbing things throughout my stay I feel guilty towards my husband for ruining our honeymoon trip. In summary, I don't think I would stay here again. I chose this hotel because of the river view and the comfortable balcony for relaxing. Smoking is prohibited in the rooms, which I understood to be a basic rule, but I later discovered that even the balcony is off-limits. Even late at night, my husband had to go downstairs to smoke, which I felt was unsafe. However, I couldn't see the view from the balcony, and the building was directly opposite another, meaning I could see people in the opposite building at all times, and they could see me as well. Therefore, I had to keep the curtains closed throughout my stay because even if I opened them, I still couldn't see the view. 1. I chose a hotel with a balcony for my husband so he wouldn't have to go downstairs late at night, but smoking wasn't allowed. My husband had to go downstairs alone in the dark late at night, which I felt was dangerous for guests. I've stayed in many hotels in Thailand and never encountered this. 2. The shower water temperature couldn't be controlled, and it was dangerously hot. 3. I paid for an upgrade to a river view room, but there was almost no view of the river. Buildings and trees blocked most of the view; you had to crane your neck to see a small part of the river. 4. I requested a complimentary cake for our wedding anniversary, but only received a small one that looked like it had been sitting for a while. Of course, I didn't eat it. 5. There were quite a few ants in the room. 6. The room was small, and the bathroom layout was quite dangerous. If you're traveling with children, you might need to be careful as they might run into things because the room is quite cramped. 7. The towels were supposed to be white, but they were gray. The advantages are: 1. Close to Icon Siam and Chinatown (Yaowarat). 2. I commend the staff for their assistance; they always open the car door, check our luggage, and even help carry our suitcases to our room. 3. There's a Lawson convenience store, a massage parlor, and a nail salon within the hotel, which is very convenient.
