That said, the room offered stunning views of the iconic Chao Phraya River, and the cleanliness and amenities were excellent.

The rooms are spacious, as is the bathroom and we had a walk in wardrobe which was perfect to hide the mess of our luggage and shopping.

There was a very poor quality of service for some of the employees, but I think it may be according to the conditions.

Excellent food, great service, and a truly relaxing experience.
Tripadvisor, August 2026, rated 5/5 by this guest
The Capella Bangkok was one of the best hotels we have ever stayed at: from the room to the service to the food, it was perfection.
Google, October 2026, rated 5/5 by this guest
We ordered four dishes during dinner, but unfortunately, the food was excessively salty overall, especially the stir-fried lotus stem with shrimp, which was not enjoyable for us.

The Living Room is a great experience and so was breakfast on the terrace enjoying every day possible the very best mango in the world!

Beds71Strength
I stayed at the Ritz-Carlton, Kimpton Marais, and Capella in Bangkok, and the view of the Chao Phraya River and the comfort of the bed at Capella were the best.
Tripadvisor, September 2026, rated 5/5 by this guest
Inside the room, you will find a large and very comfortable bed with extensive amenities in the bathroom.
Tripadvisor, October 2026, rated 5/5 by this guest
The pillows were slightly too soft to provide proper neck support, and while breakfast offers a decent variety, the taste could be more distinctive.
Tripadvisor, April 2026, rated 5/5 by this guest
Too few mentions to judge: pool, room condition and value.
