The shower would get cold quickly and after awhile turn hot again with ok pressure. I would take a 2 minute shower just to try and avoid the cold water. There is barely anything around this property in any direction. It also seems to have more families than any other hotel I’ve stayed in, so more screeming kids and slamming doors. For me besides the shower, it’s ok. I like to walk a lot and explore new areas no matter what is there.

Access to the property is challenging because it’s tucked away and you have to be very attentive to GPS and looking for the glow sign if you miss it you’ll end up crossing over to the other side of the Chai Phraya river. once you find it it’s an extraordinarily high-end boutique hotel that was built only in 2024 so everything is super clean well finished and appointed one of the greatest value hotels I’ve ever booked. Hyper clean, modern, trendy right on the banks of the Chao Phraya River. Amazing views from the infinity pool alongside of the river to dining (vv good!)indoor outdoor. Normally the fitness center is at these boutique hotels are given the short shrift, but not here. Excellent equipment! All in all just under a five star but I would say over a four star. And the price, don’t tell anybody it’s a steal! We’ll stay here again to be sure

GLOW Riverside is a great hotel right on the banks of the river, but very quiet. It has nice views of the river with the pool and restaurant overlooking it. There is a nice gym and the rooms are clean with very comfortable beds. Even our standard room was large with a large balcony. There was a buffet breakfast included with our stay that offered a full spread of Thai and Western dishes. The hotel is located near Chinatown

Hôtel magnifique

I found this hotel very good. the rooms are great. I was able to manage the air conditioning on and off. the reception is very nice. the waitresses at breakfast are great, always friendly and comely. I haven't been drinking milk for a long time, and for breakfast, as it didn't have soy milk, they offered me coconut milk but then it was super good, I loved it. So every morning I had my glass of coconut milk with a little sweet but light taste. for me, the waitresses were very attentive. I therefore recommend this place which is beautifully well and with a swimming pool in addition. I thank them again and again my stay was lovely, I had a nostalgia the same morning I left this hotel with regret, I was at home. thank you thank you. Even if the hotel is far from the grab centers such as Central Word, Inconsiam, MBK and BIG C it is not a problem. there is the bus, the GRAB and the boat because it was my Favorite transport. then it must not stop you.

I absolutely loved this place. I’m now thinking it’s my go to place when I’m in BKK. The location on the river is amazing. I loved the pool and the gym was great. My only slight criticism was with the portion size of the Club Sandwich-it was half what I expected. However the Pork Chop was delicious. All the staff made my stay extra special in particular Newtie who works in Housekeeping. I totally recommend and can’t wait to return. Thank you all

Had a great stay, check was quick smooth, friendly, helpful. Friendly staff, nice room, balcony, didn’t use much, hot to sit out, king bed very comfy, clean. Everything was new condition, fairly recent hotel. Liked location next to River, pool and gym. They have cafe, bar, breakfast which I didn’t have, as it was buffet, I don’t have a big breakfast, and I am solo traveler. It’s short walk across the bridge to get River taxi, no more than 20 TBH. Stayed 5 nights, would stay again. Was Good experience.
