The StandardX, Bangkok Phra Arthit
★ 4.5 · 246 reviews Bangkok Opened November 2024
The Standard's scrappier sibling lands on Phra Arthit, rooftop pool over the river
Only 62 rooms, split across four categories from 30 to 46 square metres, with the best ones facing the Chao Phraya. This is the second hotel ever for The Standard's looser, cheaper sibling brand, and the design team paired their in-house crew with Studio Freehand and Porntip "Mook" Attakanwong of ATT 19, who built a rotating gallery called 10 10 into the lobby.
BANG does Thai food at street level, The Roof serves Mexican on the sixth floor beside a pool that looks straight over the river, and the coffee comes direct from growers in Nan province. Phra Arthit has been guesthouse territory for decades. This is the first hotel on the strip that actually looks designed.
Good to know
- Book a King on the River room; the standard categories face the street.
- The Roof does Mexican food beside a pool looking over the Chao Phraya, and it's open to non-guests.
- The 10 10 gallery inside rotates local art shows, and the hotel hosts a vintage-and-craft market some weekends.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My daughter and I had an absolutely wonderful stay! 🤍 From the moment we arrived, we felt so welcome. The hotel has a beautiful, modern design while still offering a warm and relaxing atmosphere. Our room was stylish, spotless, and had everything we needed. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and the location is simply perfect. Situated by the river, the hotel offers a beautiful setting while still being close to Bangkok's main attractions. One of the highlights of our stay was the stunning rooftop terrace with its lovely swimming pool. The views over Bangkok are absolutely breathtaking, especially at sunset. It was the perfect place to relax after a day of exploring the city. What truly made our stay special was the exceptional service. Every member of the staff was incredibly kind, welcoming, and always happy to help. Their genuine hospitality made us feel at home throughout our stay. My daughter and I enjoyed every single moment and would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Bangkok. The perfect location, amazing rooftop, spectacular views, beautiful rooms, and outstanding service made this a stay we will never forget. We will definitely be back. Thank you for making our trip so special! 🤍🇹🇭✨

Everything is good in the hotel. Staff are friendly because they always greet us when they see us. The only thing that should be improved is the food. The food is good but they take about 30 minutes to make the food. The hotel room is very clean and has a good scenery. Overall, the hotel is a good place to stay in Bangkok.

This was a great place to stay in Bangkok. I will definitely return. The hotel is fantastic with original art everywhere. Very creative. The staff were wonderful. The room was modern and comfortable and there was a pool in the roof with a great view and lots of seating. The hotel restaurant served amazing food. I purchased some art ( hand made lamps ) from their gift shop by a local artist. There were so many original things to choose from. The ceramic lamps were packaged perfectly and made it home safe and sound. I accidentally made a small damage in the room. The staff were very professional and understanding. I really appreciated that. The location was close to busy tourist areas but off a few streets and very quiet along the riverfront. Good value for money compared to other places I have stayed in Bangkok. This was my 5th trip so I know by comparisons with others. Thank you so very much to the wonderful people at the Standard X Bangkok!!
