"Built in 1908 as the residence of Prince Chulachakrabongse, these incredibly luxurious villas lie on the Chao Phraya River between Chinatown and the Royal Palace."

"In the luxuriant, riverside gardens of 100-year-old Chakrabongse House overlooking Wat Arun are four tranquil villas beautifully furnished in dark wood and silk, with polished teak floors."
