| Iudia is a tasteful, comfortable and well equipped serviced accommodation
located among the ancient ruins of the great Siamese kingdom of Ayudhya.
Ayudhya served as the Siamese royal capital from 1350-1767. The city was
sacked by the Burmese in 1767 and put to the torch. During its heyday Ayudhya was one of greatest and richest cities in Asia, envied not only by the Burmese but by the Europeans as well. Under King Ramesuan Ayudhya conquered the great Khmer kingdom of Angkor Wat and brought back precious Khmer artifacts, treasures and artisans to Siam. From Ayudhya the kings of the powerful Siamese empire ruled over a vast territory that extended from the borders of Burma, Laos and Cambodia in the north down to the Malay peninsular in the south. Perhaps denoting the power and glory of the Siamese kingdom, the name "Ayudhya" in Sanskrit also means "indestructible." Today only its temple ruins remain as testimony to Siam's former glory as a dominant political, economic and religious centre on mainland Southeast Asia. In 1992 Ayutthaya's ancient ruins have been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site and conservation work was underway to restore the ancient architecture of the temples. In ancient Southeast Asia, religious architecture tended to survive because the privilege to dwell in structures of brick and stone was the prerogative of the gods. |

LOCATION MAP
| Located on U-Tong Road in the isle of Ayutthaya, Iudia is right in the centre of the old city. Staying at Iudia puts you within comfortable walking distance from 69 major ruins of temple and palaces. You can enjoy the privilege to check out the old temples at a leisurely pace, even returning to the more central ruins several times to see them at different times of day and making forays further-a-field by bicycling. Here you can decide to walk, cycle or sit by your window and contemplate the lost civilization which once animated the mute stucco of Ayudhya's ancient temples. |

Iudia On The River
Accommodation and facilities:
We had a room on the 2nd floor which gave us a private stairway and aspectacular view overlooking the pool and across the river to the temple ruins. The atmosphere in the room was very romantic. The room had very high ceilings and smelled very good. The pool was fabulous and had a great view of the ruins as well. The only complaint about the room was that there were vents that allowed many Mosquitos to enter the room and took the relaxing feeling away from the room. However, the bed did have a mosquito net on it which worked very well at keeping the bugs out and allowed for a very romantic atmosphere and allowed us to relax inside the bed while we slept. The hotel gives you wi-fi for free, which is rare in Thailand. They also let you use bicycles for free, which was great to get around and see the city first hand. Overall, I would recommend this hotel to anyone who wants fantastic service and a boutique experience.

Accommodation and facilities:
Very nice view on the river and the temple. Welcome sympathetic. Only a few rooms so feeling like in family. Clean, furniture beautiful, life very easy in the hotel. The very difficult thing is the noise. Too much noise even by night. Big boats on the river very noisy and big trucks in the street. Impossible to sleep during four nights. Impossible to advise for other customers du to high level of noise. Hotel manager must see this problem with architect. Very very bad location between the road and the river.

Beautiful place. When you have a room with view on the swimming pool, you can see a temple on the other side of the river. People are nice and helpful. The problem is that nobody in the city know the address of the hotel and it's difficult to find it. In Ayutthaya just few people speak english.

This was the nicest hotel we stayed in during our Thailand trip (we stayed only in 3,4,5 star hotels). We had a big lovely room NeXT to the pool with view on the river and a temple. The room was very nicely decorated, we liked the bathroom and shower. Personel was extremely friendly and serves good food. Choose this hotel for your stay! They also have free bikes available.

We spent three nights at this fantastically relaxing idyllic location. The staff were absolutely top class helping you at every opportunity. The room we inhabited was spacey and functional with all mod cons in addition to historical relics adding a touch of history to the modern style architecture. The swimming pool was small but relaxing and the view of the old temple across the river is dramatically stunning. We would have no hesitation in staying at Iudia again and wish to relay our thanks to owners and staff alike for a meditative and relaxing stay at a great place.

Accommodation and facilities:
Small boutique hotel. We found the style of the rooms took some getting used to. There was nowhere to hang a wardrobe style case and no door to the bathroom, just a curtain. The room was comfortable and the traffic noise from the main road was not as bad as expected. View out across the river was spectacular at night. Staff friendly and helpful but restaurant facilities were limited.

No problems, good as always

Small scale hotel, very friendly staff, quiet and relaxing (pool, view on the temple at other side of river). If your budget allows, consider booking one of the two top floor deluxe rooms: unbelievable architecture, very luxurious decor. For excursions: let the hotel staff arrange for a car with driver for you, very reasonably priced service, also for transfers to your next destination.

Iudia On The River and its staff was a highlite of our trip to Thailand. We did not expect to have such a wonderful accomodation and care as was provided to us on our journey through Thailand. As a very discerning indivdual, I was so pleased to be treated with incredible kindess and care in a lovely environment, excellent room, and views that took my breath away. Not only were our days there wonderful; additional, the bicycles provided for our day touring were in excellent condition. Most importantly, the staff was attentive and went way out of their way to accomodate our every need. I am unaware of the stars provided this venue, but I personally give it 5 even though it does not have some of the amenities attached to 5 star hotels. We are told that it soon will have those, since it is a very newly opened hotel. Go! Go! You will not be disappointed.
Reservation service:
Call direct and speak with the staff. They will give you all the details so you can book with an informed decision on which room is the best for you and your budget.
