Ramada Plaza by Wyndham Bangkok Menam Riverside, hotel in Bangkok, Thailand
Ramada Plaza by Wyndham Bangkok Menam Riverside is a hotel on the west bank of the Chao Phraya River in the Bang Kho Laem district of Bangkok. The property sits directly on the waterfront and includes outdoor pools, gardens, and several dining areas, with many rooms featuring balconies that face the river or the city.
The hotel opened in 1986 under the name Menam Riverside Hotel, when the southern riverfront of Bangkok was beginning to attract larger hospitality projects. It later joined Wyndham Hotels and Resorts and took on its current name, shifting from a local brand to an international chain.
The hotel's name references the Chao Phraya River, which runs directly in front of the property and shapes daily life in the neighborhood. Locals use the river for transport and trade, and watching the boats pass from the riverbank gives a sense of how central the water still is to Bangkok's rhythm.
The hotel is on the southern riverfront of Bangkok, a short ride from the main tourist areas, so getting to the city center takes some planning. Using the boat shuttle to the main pier is often faster than road transport during busy hours, and it is worth checking the schedule at the front desk on arrival.
The hotel stands on a stretch of the Chao Phraya where the river bends, which gives rooms on the upper floors a view of the water in two directions at once. On clear mornings, Wat Arun and other riverside temples are visible from the balconies without needing to travel anywhere.
