Arun Residence was one of the first really successful Bangkok boutique hotels.
If you're searching for lodging that provides an intimate look at the Thai capital, check out Arun Residence, overlooking the Chao Phraya River.
Stashed at the end of a side street near Wat Po, this boutique hotel has just seven rooms, all of which offer views of the bustling waterway, where barges and long-tail boats buzz by throughout the day. And you'll also have a view of Wat Arun -- the temple of the dawn -- with its spire that pokes up into the sky.
The hotel's restaurant (don't miss the Thai pomelo salad) has a balcony that looks out over the Chao Phraya as well.
