Deluxe Rooms measure 45 to 47 square meters, with a king bed or twin beds and space for up to three guests, including children. Teak floors and silk furnishings give the interiors their Thai character. A sofa and coffee table sit apart from the dressing area, while an executive desk provides somewhere to work. Marble bathrooms have double vanities, a bathtub and a separate shower. Nespresso machines and Chromecast are practical additions to a room whose materials and furnishings remain traditional.

Grand Deluxe Rooms keep the same 45-to-47-square-meter footprint but occupy floors 23 through 35. The reason to move to this category is elevation, not a larger floor plan. King or twin beds are available here too, with a maximum occupancy of three.

Deluxe Balcony and Grand Deluxe Balcony Rooms add outdoor space. Deluxe Suites and Grand Deluxe Suites are also part of the accommodation range. Balcony categories are worth considering for guests who want fresh air and a more direct river connection.

The Peninsula Suite takes a different approach to space. On the 34th floor, its 364 square meters include a main bedroom with a king bed and a guest bedroom with twin beds. The layout has a separate study, a private gym and a pantry for dining preparation, as well as a landscaped terrace. With a maximum occupancy of five, it merits attention for travelers who need several distinct rooms for sleeping, working and spending time together.

For accessibility needs, the Deluxe Room Accessible category has twin beds and is on the fourth and fifth floors. Its adaptations include a wheelchair-accessible route within the room, lowered controls, support rails, a bathroom ramp and folding chair, and a visual fire alarm above the beds. Discuss the precise bathroom arrangement and access requirements before booking, especially if the riverboats will be part of your daily plans.

Thiptara serves Thai cuisine outdoors beside the river, beneath banyan trees. The garden is part of the dining room here, with foliage around the tables and the water beyond. River Cafe & Terrace takes a broader approach, with international and Asian dishes at its buffet stations and a riverfront setting.

The Lobby is useful for afternoon tea, light food, and live music. Sandwiches, scones and pastries accompany tea indoors or on the terrace. Large glass windows and interior planting shape the room, while the entertainment schedule includes piano and jazz. The dress code is smart casual, so change out of swimwear or sportswear before coming down from the pool. Tea here can be an afternoon appointment in its own right, rather than a stop between sightseeing and dinner.

Mei Jiang is associated with Cantonese cooking and dim sum in a garden-facing dining room. Confirm service for your travel dates when making a reservation. The River Bar and the Pool Bar provide separate settings for drinks.

In-room dining runs around the clock, with Thai dishes and international food. It is a practical alternative after a late arrival or when a child needs an early evening in the room.

The hotel's three-tier outdoor pool is one of its signature features. At 88 meters overall, it extends through the riverside grounds, with Thai salas beside the water. These sheltered sitting areas are part of the pool's character, as much as its length. Leave time for the pool between excursions; the grounds also include a tennis court.

The Peninsula Spa occupies a three-story Thai colonial-style building beside the river. Private spa suites have steam showers and whirlpools, while the treatment menu spans massages and facials. Saunas, steam rooms and plunge pools extend the visit beyond the treatment itself. The minimum age for spa access and treatments is 16, a useful distinction for families planning their time on the property. Allow half an hour ahead of a treatment for changing and time in the facilities; arriving late shortens the appointment. Discuss treatment preferences with the team when reserving, including any preference for a private spa suite.

The garden-level Fitness Centre is open 24 hours. Treadmills, elliptical trainers, bicycles and stair-climbing machines cover cardio sessions, with free weights and strength equipment for resistance work.

A private Muay Thai session takes place in Thiptara's garden under an instructor's guidance. The Peninsula Academy pairs the hour of kickboxing with a 90-minute massage at the spa. Participants must be at least 18, and the program requires a minimum of two people. Reserve at least three business days ahead; the session depends on availability.

The Peninsula Academy's Junior Chef class gives children aged six to eleven a session with the culinary team in the pastry kitchen. Cookies, brownies, cupcakes and pizza are among the foods covered by the program. The two-hour class involves mixing, kneading and other hands-on kitchen tasks, rather than simply watching a demonstration. It requires at least two participants, advance notice of two business days and confirmation of availability. Arrange it before arrival if it is important to the family itinerary; it is a scheduled activity, not a drop-in children's club.

The hotel operates boats to the Peninsula Pier Lounge and Taksin Pier, where guests connect with Saphan Taksin BTS station. Those crossings are available on request, while the ICONSIAM boat follows a schedule. A tuk-tuk service also connects the hotel with ICONSIAM. Check the departure and return arrangements before setting out, particularly for dinner across the river. The shuttle destinations are specific: travel farther along the Chao Phraya requires an onward connection or a separately arranged journey.

Airport transfer arrangements cover both Suvarnabhumi and Don Mueang. Confirm which airport your flight uses when sending arrival details, and ask for pickup arrangements and the transfer charge. For departure, agree a collection time around your flight rather than relying on a fixed driving estimate.
