The mansion was built in 1888 for Luang Sathorn Rajayutka, the businessman who developed the Sathorn canal area; in the 1920s it housed a hotel. In 1948 it was leased for the Soviet diplomatic mission and served as the embassy of the USSR and then of Russia until 1999. In 2001 the Fine Arts Department of Thailand registered the mansion as a protected monument.
