If you’re looking for something special, something unique, then you’ll want to stay at the best boutique hotels in Bangkok. Bangkok is a city that has something for everyone. From the bustling streets of Chinatown to the serene temples of Wat Arun, there is always something new to explore. That’s why we’ve put together a list of the unique boutique hotels in Bangkok, so you can relax in style.
1. 1905 Heritage Corner
Set in the heart of Bangkok Old Town district, 1905 Heritage Corner is a boutique guest house in a small colonial-style shophouse. Located away from the hustle and bustle of Bangkok’s city life. It took four years to restore this historic shophouse, but the wait has paid off. Only few hotels in Bangkok can match the charm, character and atmosphere of 1905 Heritage Corner. The three bedrooms have been done out in polished wood, metro-tiled bathrooms and old-school furniture, while the Chinese antiques in the public spaces nod to the building’s former function as a tearoom.
The hotel doesn’t have a restaurant, but thanks to its plum position at the Phraeng Phuton piazza, some of the city’s best-known street food stalls are right around the corner.

2. Praya Palazzo Hotel
Located on the banks of the Chao Phraya River, the Praya Palazzo Hotel offers a charming riverside experience which in contrast to my high-rise, urban surroundings is a welcome break. This place is genuinely beautiful; it is housed in a historical mansion from the former Siamese monarchy that has been restored into a chic, opulent boutique hotel. While hidden from the chaos of Bangkok’s central areas Praya Palazzo is still within easy reach of the Old City and Rattanakosin Island. A short journey brings you to Bangkok’s top historical and cultural attractions including the Grand Palace, Reclining Buddha, Temple of Dawn (Wat Arun). The only way to access to the hotel is by traditional wooden barge.

3. Shanghai Mansion (Chinatown)
An escape not only from Bangkok but Thailand and the 21st century. At Shanghai Mansion you’re whisked back to the romance of old Shanghai with suites draped in canopies, lanterns, mustards and clarets. This old building is full of historic Chinese themed charm that perfectly recreates the movie era of the 1930s
As expected this vintage, boutique hotel is found snug in the centre of Yaowarat Road; the main street of the central Chinatown. It also gives the ideal vantage point for exploring Bangkok’s Old City and the famous temples within. A short taxi (or long walk) finds the Hua Lamphong underground (MRT) and train station giving access to Bangkok’s convenient rail networks. To replicate the experience without staying at Shanghai Mansion try their swinging on site ‘Cotton Jazz’ bar.
