Royal Orchid Sheraton Riverside Hotel Bangkok
2 Charoen Krung 30, Bang Rak, Bangkok 10500
The Royal Orchid Sheraton has positioned itself as one of Bangkok's leading MICE hotels, and the numbers support that claim. Over 43,000 square feet of riverfront event space, a ballroom that holds 1,150 guests with an 8K LED screen stretch of 22 meters, and 726 river-view rooms make this property a serious choice for large-scale conferences, gala dinners, weddings, and corporate gatherings along the Chao Phraya.
The Royal Orchid Sheraton Riverside Hotel Bangkok occupies a prime stretch of Charoen Krung Road in the Bang Rak district, directly on the western bank of the Chao Phraya River. All 726 rooms and suites are positioned to face the river, delivering panoramic views of Bangkok's most famous waterway from every guestroom.
The hotel operates its own private pier alongside two nearby public piers, making water-based arrivals and departures a practical reality for both guests and event attendees. Hotel river shuttles connect the property to key landing points along the Chao Phraya, and BTS Saphan Taksin Station is a short distance away, providing straightforward onward access to the BTS Silom and Sukhumvit lines.
For events, the Royal Orchid Sheraton is among the most equipped riverside venues in Bangkok. The total function space exceeds 43,000 square feet across 22 meeting and event rooms, all recently refurbished. The flagship Royal Orchid Sheraton Ballroom covers 985 square meters and accommodates up to 1,150 guests. It is fitted with a 22-meter-long 8K LED screen, the widest of its specification in Bangkok, giving the space a strong technical advantage for large conferences, award ceremonies, and gala events. The Grand Ballroom seats up to 800 guests for a formal dinner configuration. The Riverside Ballroom, at 493 square meters, is suited to events of up to 320 guests and offers flexible layout options.
Multiple restaurants and bars operate within the property, giving event planners and guests a range of dining settings without leaving the hotel grounds. River-facing dining across the hotel's food and beverage outlets gives mealtimes a distinctive Bangkok backdrop.
The Bang Rak neighborhood surrounding the hotel includes some of Bangkok's most storied streets, including the Charoen Krung creative district, Assumption Cathedral, and the riverside walking path toward the Mandarin Oriental and Capella Bangkok. The Royal Orchid Sheraton's combination of scale, riverfront access, technical event infrastructure, and neighborhood character makes it a well-rounded choice for events that want a sense of place alongside their function space.
