Essentials

Maitria Hotel Rama 9 is a four-star lifestyle hotel by Chatrium on Rim Klong Samsen Road in Huai Khwang, Bangkok. It opened on 15 March 2021. The hotel’s website says it is located near MRT Ratchada and describes it as steps from the new business district around Rama 9.

Check the route to the station on a map before you book, and expect to use a taxi or bus for some trips: this is not a hotel you walk out of onto a platform.

Overview

Chatrium describes the rooms as spacious, comfortable suites.

The hotel sits close to hospitals and health care. Chatrium’s launch material names Piyavate Private Hospital, Bangkok Hospital and Praram 9 Hospital as nearby, along with Central Plaza Rama 9 and Shrewsbury International School City Campus. For anyone planning a medical visit while in Bangkok, that location is the draw.

Other options in the area are compared in the Ratchada and Rama 9 guide. Chatrium Grand Bangkok, often confused with this hotel, is a different property in the Siam area.

Tip: Ask the hotel for the current taxi or bus route to Phra Ram 9 or Ratchada MRT when you book, and keep the address in Thai on your phone for drivers.

Food and drink

Coffee & Crumble Eatery

On the ground floor by the lobby, the eatery serves Thai, Asian and Western dishes, from breakfast and snacks to full meals. Seating is indoors, by the pool deck, or as room service.

The hotel’s dining page also lists eating places along Ratchadaphisek Road and in Central Rama 9 and The Street Ratchada malls.

Amenities

The outdoor saltwater pool has a jacuzzi and sits in the front area of the hotel. The fitness centre is in the lobby with cardio machines, exercise machines and free weights. A jogging track, Nature’s Track, runs through gardens at the front of the hotel.

The parking structure has an EV charging station on level 4. The hotel is SHA certified.
