"Overall, we really liked this hotel. We booked for two nights. Let me start by saying we booked a room in the space zone and were assigned to the 70th floor. The view of Bangkok from the room is impressive, especially in the evening after dark. The room itself is quite spacious. Yes, the rooms and furniture are old, very old actually. But the room is cleaned very well. It's very clean, with white bedding. For two people, there were six bottles of water, and tea and coffee making facilities. There's a kettle. There are also bathrobes and slippers, which are very comfortable with soft soles, by the way. A nice bonus is the pretty good toiletries in the bathroom. And another pleasant surprise was a small fruit plate upon check-in.
I should mention that my husband and I accidentally went up to the 60th floor, got out of the elevator, and it smelled terribly of cigarettes, as if someone had been smoking right by the elevator. There were no such smells on the 70th floor. The rotating open observation deck is a delight in itself, and it's beautiful to watch Bangkok by night. In general, the presence of observation decks and photo zones is a big plus for the hotel. For that alone, you can overlook the shortcomings of the old rooms.
I also want to highlight the hotel's location. It's very convenient for getting to/from the airport. There's a direct metro line. It's about a 10-minute walk to the hotel. Right next to the hotel is, of course, the Indian quarter. If you like Indian cuisine, it will be very convenient. But there are other cafes too. There's a large shopping mall just a 20-minute walk away. It's about a 30-minute taxi ride to the Grand Palace and the Temple of the Emerald Buddha (but that's with traffic).
Check-out from the hotel is by 11:00 AM, which is a bit early compared to other hotels. Keep that in mind. But there's a late check-out service for 200 baht for each additional hour.
So overall, I can recommend this hotel if you're prepared to accept the nuances mentioned above."
