Riverine Place Riverside Serviced Apartments

Riverine Apartments are situated in Nonthaburi, in a secluded area along the Chao Phraya River banks, and are surprisingly quiet despite the busy main access road just being 50 meters away. The studio ‘apartment’ is nicely furnished, although limited in amenities and looks a little tired, and in truth the accommodation is more comparable to a hotel room, rather than an apartment since other than a kettle, no cooking facilities or utensils are provided, although bizarrely there is a massive refrigerator in the room. A large bathroom with full size bath and shower offer plenty of hot water, and the basin area is fitted with a large marble worktop to place cosmetics and toiletries. The bed is King sized, comfortable and assured a good night's rest. A flat screen TV is also provided, albeit there are very few foreign channels - most of these being just famous news broadcasters. The best features of Riverine are the spectacular views, gorgeous surrounding perfectly manicured gardens, and the relaxation amenities which include a wonderful, very large, outdoor swimming pool, sauna, steam room and an excellent gym with substantial equipment selection to perform a good workout. The room was clean and tidy and serviced daily, including the provision of fresh towels and toiletries. The staff were very accommodating, but as with many places in Thailand, there are some language difficulties, but overall the service was expedient and efficient. Parking is conveniently provided, and there is a small convenience store located on-site for those wishing to purchase basic food and drinks.

No kitchen or cooking facilities (Studio apartment) Location although beautiful is remote and there are not many good eating or interesting places close by There is a restaurant facility within Riverine providing breakfast (did not use) and hot meals, but the selection is limited and unremarkable
