This mansion was built  in 1903 by King Rama V for his son and heir, the future King Rama VI. The name of Borom Phiman was given to this western style building.

When King Rama VI ascended the throne, he had the new Borom Phiman renovated. Among the innovations was the quadrangular dome over the inner chamber,with frescoes - depicting the Siamese conception of the Vedic gods of India held up as the guardians of the Universe.

Besides King Rama VI, his three successors on the throne have resided here. A royal residence by King Rama VII (1925-1935), King Rama VIII (1935-1946), and the present King Rama IX. 

At present the Borom Phiman Mansion serves as the Royal Guest House for visiting Heads of State and guests of Their Majesties.
