Grand China Princess Hotel
             215 Yaowarat Road, Samphantawong,
                                   Bangkok 10110
                                         

    Sweeping views over the centre of old Bangkok, Ratanakosin Island and the Chao Phraya River, and lots of turn-of-the-century Asian ambience are the main benefits of staying in the middle of Chinatown. The Grand China Princess takes up the top two-thirds of a 25-storey tower. Wat Arun, Golden Mount, and Wat Traimit are just some of the sites visible.

    The interiors are comfortable and functional and all rooms have safes and satellite television. Bathrooms are petit and well designed. Service is wonderfully friendly, and the reception floor at level 10 has a welcoming bar, lounge, and coffee shop. The mysterious effect of dark teak furniture, and a lotus design dominate Siang Ping Loh restaurant which serves Cantonese and Szechuan food.
