CHANN

Last updated: 05 January, 2024

When downtown Bangkok feels too rushed and the historical quarter a little too touristy, this small boutique hotel tucked behind a ramshackle village just across the river from the city’s main sights will hit the spot.

It’s a lovely hideaway, offering the chance to immerse yourself in local life along the river, whether exploring the adjoining village on foot or watching rainbow-coloured long-tail boats zoom past the hotel’s wooden deck.

While its slightly off-beat location makes grabbing a quick bite a little challenging, the on-site IMM restaurant is an excellent spot for home-style Thai classics.

The Grand Palace and Wat Pho are a short 15-minute boat ride away, but you’ll need at least 45 minutes to reach the bustle of downtown.

Surrounding area

Tucked away down a lattice of alleyways this riverside hotel, feels calm and peaceful, surrounded by the low-slung houses and small temples of an authentic Thai village.

The quietness does come at a cost; the hotel lies on the opposite side of the Chaopraya river to downtown Bangkok and not all taxis will make the journey.

There’s little in the way of hustle and bustle, but if you’re looking for an escape from the chaos, this is the place.
