I stayed in the Montien Riverside for four nights in February 2023, over the Valentine’s day period, staying in a Deluxe Corner Riverside room. Even though the Montien is an older hotel it still retains that “wow” factor, as it has been well maintained. The staff here are amongst the best of any hotel in Bangkok, very friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. My room was up on one of the higher floors with huge windows on each corner overlooking the Chao Phraya river, magnificent views, especially at night. Whilst there were signs of aging, particularly in the bathroom, the room generally had been maintained to a high level. The room was spacious, airy and had a touch of opulence. The bed was super comfortable and the rain shower had good pressure with very hot water. A nice touch was the free mini bar (soft drinks and snacks only). The grounds at the back of the Montien are quite beautiful, large lawned area next to the river and plenty of seating available to enjoy a cool drink or a meal. There is a van serving food in the evening and quite often piped or live music. A great place to chill out away from the hustle and bustle of Bangkok. The hotel provides a shuttle service (one way) that runs parallel to the river and stops at all the key tourist spots such as Iconsiam. I had a wonderful stay at the Montien and would be happy to return. I would however like to mention a few areas that need improvement. The WIFI first. In my near twenty years coming to Thailand and staying in numerous types of accommodation from guesthouses to high end resorts the Montein has the worst WIFI I have ever encountered. So many times I had to switch to mobile network because of the poor or inconsistent signal. This obviously cost me money. For those whose livelihood are dependant on a reliable WIFI network then this place would not be for you. My second biggest gripe is that there are no power points by the bed, unbelievable and quite frustrating. I would have loved to have given the Montien five stars but because of the poor WIFI and lack of powerpoints I have deducted a point. Lastly, as a suggestion to management, why do you mot engage the service of a shuttle boat? You have a little dock in the river at the rear of the hotel and it would be a wonderful benefit to your paying guests. Apart form the negatives I mentioned above I can highly recommend the Montein Riverside for a relaxing stay with a touch of luxury.
