Siamotif Boutique Hotel

The DNA

Siamotif Boutique Hotel, Bangkok
Canal-Side Charm in a Restored Thai Home


A Local Lens on Life by the Water

Tucked along the quiet Bangkok Noi Canal, Siamotif Boutique Hotel is a peaceful world away from the capital’s thrum—yet just 20 minutes by car from Chinatown and the Grand Palace. Here, canal life takes center stage: stilted wooden homes, drifting orchids, and laneways woven with prayer flags, laundry lines, and tiny family shrines. More than just a stay, this is an invitation into the rhythm of real Thai living, viewed through the warm, creative lens of a local family home.


History with a Personal Touch

When owner Maii inherited her family’s 75-year-old house, she transformed it with care and character. The result? An elegant bohemian hideaway brimming with hand-painted murals, cascading tropical plants, resident cats, and the lived-in comfort of smooth, worn wood floors. Step through the doors, slip off your shoes, and enter the open-air atrium of this traditional Thai house—where boutique details meet homestay warmth.


Seven Stories, Seven Rooms

With only seven individually themed rooms, Siamotif is as personal as it gets. The Flowery Room blooms with Chinese red walls and hand-painted vines, while the Celadon Suite features pottery-fragmented walls and a rooftop balcony perfect for cocktail-fueled sunsets. Each space is a collage of vintage wood, upcycled artistry, and whimsical detail—telling a story that’s part Thailand, part dream.


DNA Hotels Verdict

For travelers seeking a soulful, slow-paced escape from the city’s edge, Siamotif Boutique Hotel is a rare find. It’s not just a hotel—it’s a window into canal culture, lovingly framed by tradition, art, and family history.
