$50-150 / malam
Pesan ini jika You want to sleep inside a Wong Kar-wai movie set in the absolute heart of Bangkok's street food capital.
Mengapa Orang Menyukainya
- Immersive 1930s Shanghai Art Deco design—think red velvet, birdcages, and opium den chic
- Zero commute to Yaowarat Road's legendary street food scene (it's literally outside the door)
- Free minibar in every room (replenished daily)
Ringkasan Cepat: A moody, atmospheric stunner that trades natural light and silence for serious style and location.
Ditinjau oleh @eatdrinkandbekerry: I felt like I walked onto a movie set! Staying in a former Opera House gave the room so much drama and history. The red velvet decor and that deep soaking tub were absolute highlights for me. It’s such a fun, romantic escape right in Chinatown.

FAQ & Tips Tersembunyi
Semua yang perlu Anda ketahui sebelum memesan.
Is there a swimming pool?
No. There is a decorative water garden/fish pond in the atrium, but no pool for swimming.
Does the hotel have a gym?
No. There is no fitness center on-site. You'll need to run at a nearby park or find a day-pass gym.
Is breakfast included?
Depends on your booking, but it costs ~350 THB ($10) if paid separately. It's a buffet at 'Cotton' restaurant with decent dim sum options.
How far is the MRT?
Very close. MRT Wat Mangkon station is just a 3-5 minute walk (approx. 300m) away.
Is it family-friendly?
Not really. The dark rooms, lack of pool, and noise levels make it better suited for adults/couples.
Can I park my car there?
Technically yes, but don't. You have to park at a partner lot nearby and pay ~1,000 THB per day. Avoid driving here.
Tips Insider
- ✨
The 'complimentary minibar' isn't just water—it often includes sodas and snacks, replenished daily.
- ✨
Don't book the airport transfer through the hotel (~1500 THB) unless you want luxury; a Grab taxi is 1/3 of the price.
- ✨
The 'water garden' atrium is beautiful but can smell like a pond if the AC isn't cranking—ask for a room away from the water if you're sensitive to humidity.
5 hal yang perlu Anda tahu sebelum pergi
💡The 'Butler Service' is hit-or-miss; sometimes they are incredibly helpful, other times it's just a fancy name for the bellhop.
💡The lighting in the rooms is intentionally dim to set the 'mood,' which makes applying makeup or reading a book difficult.
💡The bathroom sinks are sometimes located in the bedroom area, not the bathroom itself (retro design quirk).
💡You will likely hear your neighbors opening and closing their doors due to the thin wood and echoey hallways.
💡The 'birdcages' in the bathroom are decorative, but some guests find them creepy at night.
