In general the hotel is clean and quiet. A good system of Security & hospitality paying extra charge if your visitor is female. the nearby hotel provide better a accommodation with less price. Checkout was quick. Nice interior decoration at the reception. Friendly people, however the option to change the deal is very stringent, and no money refund without penalty applied. House keeping crew is noisy early in the morning and repeatedly knocking doors. Sometime no one in the reception especially after midnight. Old TV and some channel are not clear. The elevator area at ground level needs a renovation.

Rooms are spacious and functional, staff is experienced and nice. Fairly priced. Five-ten minutes walk to BTS Skytrain Nana Station. Good breakfast (actually its good food all day/evening.) Pool area is small and the sun is obscured by surrounding buildings most of the day. Soi 5 is a one way with only access from Sukhumvit (or for 50 Baht short cut through Grace Hotel on Soi 3 (Nana). This is the third time we have stayed at the Bel-Aire Princess. It is far enough away from Sukhumvit to be quiet and isolated from the craziness. It is a great hotel for couples and families, with no frills but good comfortable accomodation. Seems to be most popular among Australian couples and families. There is a 7-11 store across Soi 5, and a Foodland grocery after a five minute walk.
Hotel Feature Tip : In room Ethernet connection for internet was active at no extra charge.

In-room thai massage available til late! OK - I liked this hotel at first. Feels quite grand for the price. Rooms spacious enough. Swimming pool OK but nothing to write home about. Spa that will send a masseuse to your room. But on my first night I couldn't sleep because the aircon was very noisy, and dripped water. I filled a bucket through the night. I asked them the next morning to fix it, and they said they would. But later that day nobody was able to tell me if it had been fixed. Turned out the second night was better, but the episode was annoying. But to be fair, I could have just had bad luck - I'm sure this doesn't happen in every room.

quiet area close to shopping. helpfull staff. good internet connection.
quality/price a bite expensive.
TV channel can be improved (international the minimum available) Easy acces for shopping and restaurants (specialy for arabic food). Personnaly I stay here due to the proximity of the hospital. Personnel so helpfull. Just one black point the bad reception at breakfast from one supervisor: never say hello, never look at you when asking question.

The staff were fantastic with their customer service, they were always friendly and smiling and always ready to help with everything.I was very happy with the high level of customer service. Also the hotel had a very nice modern and funky decor and design. Customer Service was of a very high standard, staff were always smiling and friendly and ready to help. We will come back again to stay at this wonderful hotel. Staff made you feel welcome at all times..right from the start of our arrival to our last day.

Friendly service.
Great location.
Nice rooms. Lifts very slow, gym a bit old. I would recommend this hotel to anyone. Its only a short walk from the BTS station and a nice hotel that make you forget you're in the middle of a bustling city.
Could not fault the service given to me during the stay. Staff were very friendly and nothing was too much trouble.
I would recommend that you upgrade to the Superior Plus rooms that give you access to the Club Tribeca Rooms. In this room you get free internet, buffet breakfast and happy hour every night between 5 and 7pm (happy hour includes free beer, wine and snacks. A nice touch before you head out for dinner.
Although I didn't go for a swim during my stay, the pool area is great too, with lots of sun lounges for sunbaking.
Overall a great place to stay in Bangkok!!
Nightlife Tip : Try Gullivers Tavern, just a few doors down.

Great quality feel to rooms. Pool can get a little busy. I stayed at the Bel Aire every time Im in bangkok, its an oasis in the middle of this part of town.
The staff are welcoming, efficient and have great command of english.
The quality of the facilities are first rate, however the pool can get crowded at times which is a shame.
The only thing i wish they could change is the pricing, its not the bargain it used to be.
Hotel Feature Tip : Don't bother with any of the expensive car services for the airport, use a taxi meter. It should cost less than 200 baht, plus the highway tolls.

pool can be busy.
not as cheap as it used to be. the bel aire princess continues to be my default hotel whilst in Bangkok. Its location is first rate, in the middle of sukhumvit with all its entertainment, bars, restaurants and shops, as well as access to the skytrain and highway.
staff are always welcoming with a good standard of English spoken by everyone which helps.
my only gripe is the pool, which can become very busy despite being in the shade for most of the day (sun between 12 and 3 only).
Hotel Feature Tip : don't bother with expensive car services for the airport. a taxi meter should cost less than 200bht plus the toll for the highway.

clean,modern,welcoming and stylish. could be considered just a little too expensive and the pool can become crowded. I have stayed at the Bel Aire a number of time now and treat it as my default hotel for Bankok. Its always stylish and welcoming, as well as delivering high standards of service and good communication (english well understood). If you opt for the more expensive rooms or lucky enough to be upgraded, make use of the Tribeca lounge, free drinks at happy hour!!!! very good. I will continue to stay here as even if a little pricey, it delivers proper satisfaction.
Hotel Feature Tip : Tribeca lounge upgrade well worth it, complete with huge room.

good location in sukumvitt. i regularly stay here and will continue to do so, easy to and from airport via the highway(should only cost 250 bht including the toll). Very stylish but combined with good service and good comunication(english spoken). Only gripe that its not as cheap as it used to be and the pool can become busy.
Travel tip : the taxi from airport should only cost 250 bht including tolls, dont bother with the expensive and slower airport limo service. get your taxi upstairs outside departures, to the left, no queues, no tickets to buy and quicker!!!!

Hotel Feature Tip : try and get upgrade to use Tribeca lounge.

Location Is great. Staff pleasant but standoffish. A good buffet breakfast. Stayed here a few years ago, it is already starting to look a little worn. The Bel Aire Princess is a perfectly pleasant mid range hotel. The location at the end of the Soi is very convenient & it feels safe to walk along even late at night.
A reasonable breakfast was included in the price (but isn't always).
The swimming pool is compact but pleasant, but it does lose the sun after about 2pm.
Hotel Feature Tip : They will provide a towel & allow use of the showers if you have a late flight & need to freshen up.
