-Good rooms.
-Nice staff.
-Close to night clubs -Resturant food good have been better. Good clean hotel with nice helpfull staff. Big rooms with good aircondition. We stayed 4 days here for shopping in bangkok. We was told it was close to pratunam market but that was not realy correct, because it was not easy to get there from this hotels location. We ended up not 100% satisfied. But total of service and standard of rooms is very good.

Huge comfortable bed and lovely bathroom.
Tea and coffee supplies were a bit too sparse.
Shampoo and bath gel were not replaced on our 2nd day and I had to phone reception to ask for them. They were delivered immediately. The hotel is clean, stylish and well designed, with friendly, helpful staff. Good facilities in the room include dressing gowns, microwave, fridge, crockery, hairdryer and iron. The breakfast options were plentiful and good. We especially enjoyed the free drinks and nibbles between 6pm and 7pm. Good location in between two Sky Train stations.

Good Staff & reasonable location, good food. Surprisingly run down for a newish Hotel, location inconvenient Thought I was staying at the better located Asoke Furama EXclusive but ended up in this one. Much older Hotel & not nearly as good condition as the Asoke one. Room was OK but showing signs of ware & tear. Breakfast was very good, some this chain seems to do well! Location is an inconvenient walk to the Skytrain. Probably would not stay here again.

For guest who have relatives at the Bungrungrad General Hospital it is a perfect place for a long or a short stay
Only a short distance to Sukhumvit, shopping Centre, many fine restaurants and the sprawling night life, and convenient for fast trip to Airport. Hopefully the noice from the nearby new housing construction will be ower soon, but anyway it is possible to sleep at the nighttime. Furama is a real nice place to stay, rooms are clean, big and very tasty decorated with very good
beds (madress are a bit hard, but after first night you sleep as a king...)
Good facilities like big TV, free internett,a good fittness centre, and all staff can speak English and are most helpfull with whatever you should ask about.
If I should say some small negative thing it could be that price for the breakfast buffet is
from my point of view to expensive

Great location only 10 minutes walk to BTS. There's also small fresh food and fruit stalls outside and a 7/11 just a minute walk.
It's not the best Furama Hotel I've stayed in however myself and my wife were very satisfied with the service and the room we had for 4 nights. My wifes big on safety and cleanliness and i gave the hotel big ticks for this! The food in the hotel was very poor. We ordered room service the night we arrived because it was very late and the food tasted really cheap and tasteless, especially for the price we paid for it. I'd recommend ordering out as all the local delicacies and major brand chains all do delivery! This was our second stay with the furama chain in bangkok in a 3 week period and recommend them to anyone. Rooms are spacious and modern with all mod cons.
Sukumvit road is very busy at night and feel very safe around the area. Lots of big food chains and fresh food and fruit can be found at a stone throw. The hotel is excellent value for money!
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip : If you feel bold enough to use them, travel around on the buses, they're fun and very cheap (10-15bht).
BTS - get a day pass as you'll be surprised how much you'll use it in one day.
Kings Palace and Reclining Budda is best reached by the river, use the BTS to get to the river. Take the FERRY north, it only costs around 20-25bht.

- New hotel
- Great breakfast
- quiet street
- good service mind staffs
- perfect room amenities - 10 minutes walk to BTS. Not too far but can be very hot in the sunny day.
- No food court around at night time. Need to walk to other soi.
Hotel is located on Soi 1 Sukhumvit. The main road is very busy during office hour. But it is very quiet at night.
Room is well decorated with good amenities and furnitures. No any complaint on this.
Staffs are mostly service minded. They are always helpful.

This hotel was great before Furama took it over...Furama are deluding themselves that this is a 5 start suite hotel on the main highway and pushed the price up. I could smoke in the room but couldn't open the window to clear the air..some live sports channels have been removed from tv and oddly there was no beer or spirits on the fridge. My deal didn't include breakfast and they wanted nearly 30% of my room cost to add it on. Good fruit outside on the street. The pool is great if you want to get a suntan standing up..not enough room to lie down! Overall this place is not that exclusive and less so if they try to push the price up any more....there are better hotels around.
Hotel Feature Tip : Buy your breakfast elsewhere..cheaper.

Attitude and the service of staff Difficulty in get warm water Furama Xclusive location was great. Central Ciphlong shopping center was walking distance. Siam Paragon center was very close. Bumrungrad Hospital was close and loads of different food was available just around the corner. Taxi was always availible at the front gate and staff at hotel were extraordinarily friendly and helpful.Would recommend hotel to everyone who wants to enjoy the quit side of Bangkok. Go STAY at Furama Xclusive
Shopping Tip : BIGC shopping center was great

Comfortable beds. Close to sky train and shopping areas. This hotel was nice. It was close to shopping with access to the sky train only one block away. The hotel provides information for activity's in the city which is helpful. The trips they offer are over priced however. The bar offers free beer for an hour in the evening. The swimming pool is very very small more like a cold hot tub but they do have a fitness area.

the staff is very helpful and friendly! room is big and clean. i love this hotel the staff is very helpful and friendly, they answer all my question about markets, etc etc. Regardless the location, I think this hotel is a nice place to stay, there's beauty salon next to the hotel opens till midnight, so you can get your hair done even at 10pm! The down side is the location, i don't know why, some taxi driver refused to take us to this hotel.

Very friendly and helpful staff
Room was very clean and well maintained
Only 5mins walk to SkyTrain
Small buffet breakfast was more than sufficient to begin your day with
If your around in the early evening theres a free drinks and small snacks on offer If you want restaurants and bars on your door step this is probably not for you We found the hotel ideal for our needs and thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.

| comfort, cleanliness and good brekkie. |

small boutique feel, great breakfast and close to the skytrain. just accross the road from bumrungrad hospital which has a big range of cafes and restarants if you dont want to go too far to get food. also lots of street food right outside the door of hotel the room i was sharing with my adult son was a little too small. i would have prefered the beds to have had some space between them instead of pressed up against each. the air-con was niosy. this is the second time i've stayed at the furama xclusive in sukhimvit and i found the scond visit to be even better than the first. there was still the same standard of cleanliness, comfort and helpfull freindly staff but this time the breakfast selection was better.
Travel tip : the skytrain is very close by and only two stops into siam square.

Good location quite near to the BTS station,
Clean rooms with nice furnishing,
Friendly and helpful staff,
Posibility for luggage storage (max. 2 weeks) Not that much variety on breakfast table
Shopping Tip : Foodland Supermarket with a great selection of everything not far away on Soi 5.
