We've compiled the best of the best in Chinatown - browse our top choices for the top things to see or do during your stay.
Originally a mansion built in 1916 by the Vadanyakul family, this stately building has had incarnations as a Chinese newspaper printing press, a teahouse, and a warehouse before being turned into a boutique hotel in the heart of Chinatown. The spacious guest rooms have high ceilings and period-appropriate furnishings. On the same lane is Bangkok's oldest coffee shop, Ek Teng Phu Ki.
This Chinatown hotel occupies the top two-thirds of a 25-story tower, and while the rooms are somewhat plain, they do have panoramic city views. The lobby has a bar, lounge, and coffee shop. Siang Ping Loh, which serves Cantonese and Szechuan fare, is well worth a visit. There's also a rooftop restaurant with 360-degree views.
