Hotels near Chao Sam Phraya National Museum, Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya

I stayed here for five nights on the final leg of my 2022 north-south road trip. Many of the guest houses in this neighborhood are still closed, this hotel was one of the only options I could find in this area. This is a pretty typical Thai/Asian-style city hotel. Behind the hotel, they have another building that is similar to a motel in the US. This is where I stayed. From the outside, it looks good, but the rooms are very basic with few amenities. Again, typical of a budget hotel that would cost 500 THB in another part of the country. At a walk-in rate of 790 THB, I thought the room was overpriced. On a positive note: the air conditioning, hot water, and refrigerator worked well and it was very clean. There is sufficient, on-site parking for those who self-drive.

Well-run homestay with a hostess who knows how to take care of the guests in the best possible way. Select the room with aircon for best comfort. Believe me, you don't want to go for the fan-only room in this lovely establishment. You want to go to full mile and have it all. The breakfast is hearty and prepared with utmost dedication. The location is superb for backpackers waiting for their next train to Chiang Mai, or wherever they are destined to go. The Wifi was surprisingly leopard-like fast in an old Thai style house like this. The shared bathroom is not an issue if you don't have a bad stomach and the parking space are plentiful if you are willing to walk the extra steps. Therefore, I would not hesitate to recommend this place, A slight deduction has been made due to very thin wall, thus you can hear every gossip from your neighbor.

Quite a decent place. Older style hotel. Room fine, good river view too. Bed comfortable. Do not expect to have a refreshing shower unless you are under 150cm as it is fixed to the wall and made for small people. Anyone taller and bending down the only option, very poor really. Pool was quite good but cold as it gets no sun until much later in the afternoon. Refreshing though. Various on-site restaurants. Bar near lobby area, prices way too much I noticed. Breakfast was quite good although the staff were not friendly, seemed disinterested and some often seen larking about maybe as it was not too busy when we went. 5 minutes walking distance to train station where there are Tuk Tuks and a few eating places as well as the usual street food. 7-11 too. Train to or from BKK is worth the experience (but takes a while to go 70km) and 3rd class trip costs 15 THB...wtaf! The boat river crossing is closed at the moment as the river is too high. Getting across the river needs to be by Tuk Tuk or taxi really. Normally at least one Tuk Tuk outside the hotel too. You know the form, must haggle them down. We used Grab a lot and got where we wanted to go. Probably can walk to some of the historic sites but probably not advised and Grab is cheap and has AC so is the way to go. There is Soi Farang and Grand Street for a livelier atmosphere with more bars and restaurants, again a cheap taxi ride away. Overall not a bad place and decent location for a reasonable and not too expensive a price.

Pension located on the opposite side of Ayuttaya on the river. Far from the actual event and history park, taxi needed. At my arrival, the booking was not found, discussions. Communication difficult because no English was spoken ...All was processed by language message in the translator on the phone which I was kept to read and answer 🙈 rooms suitable, gross but old and overwhelmed bbr.I had a ”Junior suite” which corresponded to a larger room with a sofa. Facility was stitched up to the breakfast area outside ... was covered ... breakfast was ok, very urban but with fresh egg food that were also good when the translation of the desire was also right. Grave riders had a little effort with the location...I had several dismissals ...All in all ...No recommendation

Budget hotel, not new, but all in working condition, good shower, toilet, spacious bathroom, hot water is 24 hours a day, excellent water stress, comfortable beds and pillows, clean well-spread bedding. The air conditioner with several modes, worked well. There is a spacious balcony with the view of the Temple. There is a closet, a small refrigerator, an electric teapot, glasses, cups, every day brought 600 ml of clean drinking water per person(bottle), a toilet paper roll and a coffee bag. Staff is benign, there is an elevator, surveillance cameras. Towels are clean too. The room was booked three-bedroom but we were settled in a room more, four-bedroom. So the hotel arranged us.

Arrival on the busy Children Day Weekend, we choose Centara Ayutthaya as it is closest to the Temple that we plan to attend one of their major ceremony in January. Our group choose Centara Ayutthaya as it just newly open less than a month from our arrival date. The hotel located adjunct to the Central Ayutthaya Shopping Complex's largest shopping complex in Ayutthaya. Also across from the Town Hall and Provincial Center, less than a mile from the main National Highway (also across from the Industrial Park and Complex). So, the location for business is excellent. However, the new business area that this hotel located is relatively far from the World Heritage Ancient City of Ayutthaya. So, you need a good transport to travel from the hotel to the old city. Upon arrival, this hotel has excellent reception and bell staffs. We arrived around 12.00 and the room expected to be ready by 15.00. The staff has been very nice to us. Helping us to unload all bags and get them to the storage rooms. We indicated that we booked the room via Centara Website and we want to book the rooftop restaurant for our dinner. The hotel staffs also provided the welcome drink ticket at the rooftop restaurant by dinner time, and also provide THB500 credit to be use at the Kin Restaurant (by the ground floor). The Room: We booked for Deluxe Room and first they allocated 5th Floor for me. I asked them to move me to higher floor and getting Floor 11. This is very nice service mind from the hotel staffs, as I found out later that the hotel is relatively packed on that day. The room consisted of 2 wings the Highway view and the City View. For me, I've got the Highway view. But it is not necessary to be the bad thing. The room came with Full Panoramic Glass Window with built-in Sofa-Bed that I can lie down and see the full view from my room. The room view allowed me to see the shopping complex, town hall and the high way. Also, the high floor allowed me to see the Industrial Park and City across from the other side of the high way. So, it has excellent view. The room decoration is typical Centara style that separated Toilet and Bathroom from one another. Also, the washing sink is located above refrigerator inside the room. So, it has a very strange set up from many hotels. But if you are Centara regular, it is relatively normal for them. We've got King size bed for our room, the bed is good and new and the pillows are fluffy. Nice and cold air conditioning breeze and the lighting in the room is excellent. But there is no mini bar in this hotel. You can get all needed things from the supermarket within the hotel complex (above the carpark). Service and Facilities Excellent services from all staffs. Nice receptions, excellent bell services, polite and nice waitresses at every restaurant. Excellent facilities, infinity swimming pool on 20th Floor, Nice Fitness on 19th Floor, 2 restaurants and 1 coffee shop. Carpark Similar to most Centara Hotels those adjunct to the Central Shop

Business hotel, newly opened, on the university campus, with a good environment. The air conditioner will be turned on in advance, and it is very comfortable to enter the room. There is a 711 on the expressway across the door, and there is a large seafood market. Freshly grilled shrimp and grilled fish are delicious and inexpensive. The market is also a vegetable market, and there is a night market at night. It is a little far from the scenic spot, so it is more suitable for self-driving or taking a taxi.

The room is not bad, but there is a bar next to it that will be noisy until late at night, which is very annoying

The hotel is located in the city of about 15 minutes by car. The rooms are clean, breakfast is fine. The restaurant is part of the hotel by 22:00. Traditional but also European kitchen is very cheap. Massage, gym and outdoor pool. If you need a taxi it takes at least 20 minutes to get there. If you use Grab it's very difficult to find a car, it's impossible for a weekend.

A very good choice for a 1 night trip from Bangkok, just an hour drive, having freshwater river prawn as lunch and then checking-in this stylish, boutique hotel (24 units in total) by the river. Beautiful architecture, big trees and greenery surrounding help cooling down a bit the hot summer in April. I appreciate cleanliness here. Strong hot flow of shower was there in the bathroom, though you may not need it during summer. Friendly and welcoming staff, both at reception and dinning room by the river (for both dinner and breakfast shift, all were friendly, polite and nice). Suitable for slow life weekenders, with a good book and you’ll be fine, not eventful, not much adrenaline-rush activities here. However, I faced some difficulties, (1) electric breaker in room no. 21 was not working properly, as air-con and electricity went blackout every hour for one hour (this ruined my sleep at night and it was hot during summer and air con was on for 1 hour and off for another, and on again, went like this the whole time I stayed). The next day the electrician went to help temporarily fixed and he did very well to solve it (i.e. direct connecting without passing through breaker). Later at checkout, I was told the hotel management considered this and exercised discretion to offer me apologetic discount for the room rate, which I did not expected, but much appreciated. (2) safety box in a cabinet below TV must have been forgotten to be securely fixed with the wooden part of the cabinet (it was just placed there in the cabinet and could be easily removed as a whole and carried out of the cabinet), (3) I requested twice for an ice bucket but it must have been forgotten, as it was not provided to the room. All the above was only for room no. 21, but another room no. 23 all things went perfect without a thing to complain, and this was my second visit here and all things went perfect also during my first visit (almost 3 years ago). I like this place, will come again for a one-night trip from Bangkok. Keep up the good work!
