A Gem for Low-Budget Traveller ”

Location is the best thing about this hotel. I-Residence Hotel sits right next to BTS station Chong Nonsi which is next to BTS Saladeng/ MRT Silom and just 3 stops away from Siam. From the hotel, you can walk to Silom area within 10 minutes to explore all the boutique shops, street food stalls and restaurants there. You can also go shopping in Silom Complex which offers some popular middle-end brands. In front of the hotel and at the other side of the skytrain station, you can visit the new landmark of Bangkok, the Mahanakorn building. The hotel is also close to Chinatown and Charoenkrung area. You can go there by taxi or bus. The swimming pool is also worth to check out. It's small, just enough for chilling, but it offers a wonderful panoramic view of Bangkok sky. I personally recommend the massage shop located in the Ground floor of the hotel. It's cosy, friendly, and the massageurs are highly skilful.

Another Great Experience”

My wife and son stayed at the I Residence Hotel Silom on their way back to Korea after visiting the family in Sakon Nakon. I had previously stayed at both the Silom and Sathorn properties and found them to be a great value and booked them into Silom due to the location being close to the BTS and centrally located. They enjoyed their stay very much and, in fact, we will be booking next month for our trip back for Christmas....going to and from Sakon Nakon! Both properties have great, caring staffs and we enjoy these properties over any others in Bangkok. BTW, when I worked for the US Air Force as Billeting/Lodging Officer in Bangkok I had 35 commercial hotels under me (about 1200 beds)and not one of them were close to being as good as your properties are!

I Residence”

I initially booked a one week stay at I Residence, Bangkok. But as I found the hotel so comfortable and Bangkok itself, so much fun, I ended up staying an additional week at I Residence. The staff at I Residence were extremely friendly and helpful. The hotel itself was very well kept and clean, the rooms and amenities were very modern and tastefully decorated. I residence is located in Silom and very close to the Sky Train, Shopping Complex, Central Business District and tourist haunts like the Patpong Night Market. I enjoyed my stay at I Residence and would recommend it to any visitors to Bangkok.

A Convenient Gem”

This is a very nice hotel that I highly recommend for anyone traveling to BKK. It is close to the business district of Bangkok as well as many of the main tourist areas. The Chong Nonsi Skytrain station is right in front of the hotel making it easy to get around. The accommodations are very plush and well decorated. The rooms are small by Western standards, but still very comfortable, especially for a traveler who is in Bangkok for only a couple of nights. The bathrooms are very clean, but narrow and tight. Like many of the smaller hotels in Bangkok, they only have a shower in the standard rooms. Bar soap seemed to be an oversight, instead they provided a bottle of bath gel, along with shampoo and conditioner. With the addition o f the new wing, they have upgraded the property considerably. They now have a couple of restaurant choices on sight, as well as a coffee shop on the main floor. Making it to the Main Desk is somewhat of a chore as you have to take 2 elevators to get there from the ground floor, but you have plenty of help from the staff. With this addition they have added a nice rooftop pool that provides a relaxing area to lounge. The fitness facility is still very inadequate with only 2 exercise machines that go mainly unused. I have stayed at the I-Residence from the moment it opened a couple of years ago to my most recent trip in April '09. The service seems to be improving with each trip, as more amenities are added. The staff is very friendly and helpful and help to make for a very pleasant stay. Overall this is a very nice hotel for the traveler who wants a quality room for a reasonable price. I have stayed here on more than six occasions and it has become my hotel of choice when I go to Bangkok. I highly recommend it to any traveler, especially one who wants a 4 star accommodation on a 2 star hotel budget.

Couldn't have been more pleased!”

I-Residence provides modern accomodations for a great value. My room was elegantly sleek, with a king size bed, large screen TV, computer hookup, and cool bathroom (with sexy shades into the room). The breakfast on the rooftop each morning was a feast - with a wide range of delicious Western and Asian offerings. The pool also is there with a lovely place for laying out and a small fitness area. The staff was friendly, attentive, personal. I did not feel like just another tourist. They made me feel truly welcome. The location could not have been better with easy access across the street to Chong Nonsi skytrain stop and an easy walk to Silom area. I am so glad that I picked I-Residence for my introduction to Bangkok. I got more than my money's worth - a great deal!

i-Residence Bangkok”

It was my first time staying at i-Residence Bangkok. My first impression of this hotel was excellent!! The building is new with very modern renovation! The staff were so polite and helpful! The service was excellent! The hotel was very comfortable and feeling like home. The location is the best choice of all! It is situated just next to the Chong Nonsi BTS Station which is about 1 minute walk from the hotel. From this station, you are able to connect to all the places of interests and shopping centres in Bangkok! The major places of interests are The Royal Palace, Vimamek Palace (Wooden Palace), the Reclining Buddha, the Jade Budhha and Chao Phraya River. The shopping centres such as MBK, Siam Square, Paragon and etc. In fact, you can also connect to the subway to other locations such as Chatuchak weekend market. It is just few minutes walk to Patpong area. To save your energy for shopping and sightseeing, you may take the Sky Train and get down to Sala Daeng Station where you can find a lot of entertainments activities there! You can find nice massage centres, bar and pubs, restaurants, clothing, souvenir shops, Fitness centre, sauna & spa, shopping malls and etc. In addition, if you feel hungry in the middle of night, you can find your food very easily. This is because the hotel is surrounded by convenient shops and fast food restaurant such as 7-Eleven, Family Mart, 24 hrs McDonald. These 24 hrs shops will serve you whenever you need! The breakfast is included. Even the breakfast was a bit simple and not much choice, but it was still acceptable. Furthermore, it is compensated by having the breakfast at the rooftop with a nice view of 'The State Tower" and Chong Nonsi Station! About the facilities, i-Residence Bangkok has simple fitness equipments. They only have 2 treadmills and 1 cross trainer. The swimming pool is still under construction. Once it is completed, you may have a nice view of “The State Tower” while having a swim there!

Great location and lovely room”

Arrived early but the room was not available, they asked us if it is ok to stay to another I Residence Hotel in Sathorn area and comeback again the next day to check in in Silom area. The next day, when we checked in Silom, they upgraded our room from junior suite to executive suite room for free. The interior of the room was nice and the hotel sit just next to Chong Nonsi BTS station. There was McDonald's next to the hotel open until midnight, so another advantage for the hotel. In front of the hotel, there was a massage parlour (Sense Massage & Spa) with reasonable price and open until midnight.

Fantastic hotel & great service in good location”

I Residence Hotel Silom is almost a hidden gem - its location is very good (less than a minute walk from the BTS Skytrain and near the river) and in the heart of the bustling Silom area. The rooms are very well equipped - with many little useful things such as a hair dryer, hot water kettle, complimentary coffee and tea (even condoms are available - in case of need :-)). They are clean and well maintained The service is fantastic - whatever I requested was arranged for quickly and with a smile! The only downside - some noise at night from a nearby restaurant or bar but it's not too bad. Overall - very recommendable!!!

Good value hotel on a good location”

i-residence silom is a solid value hotel in the center of things. for the price we paid (on sale, very cheap!), we get a 3-star hotel on a good location. in bangkok, a good location is important because of the heavy traffic! you certainly don't want to haggle with a taxi or a tuk-tuk driver just to be able to get to a bts station - i-residence silom saves you from that because the bts station is just a stone's throw away. having a 7-11 and mcdonald's nearby also adds to the hotel's value. the room is a typical 3 star hotel. you get 2 free bottles of water daily, clean towels, free wired internet, a safety deposit box and a small ref. add this to the fact that the hotel offers a rooftop pool, a decent fitness center and a free internet room (albeit small with only 1-2 working pcs), and you really get a decent value hotel in the heart of bangkok. the only major downside which prevents me from ranking the hotel higher is the room's toilet. it is a total mismatch, you get modern, sleek, clean-looking rooms, but the toilet is outdated, looks old, with broken door locks. the toilet bowl is flimsy; the shower heat is difficult to use; and, the sink faucet is an old type wherein you have to twist it instead of lifting it left and right (you'll hate it when your hands are soapy because you'll have a hard time opening it). another downside is that while the hotel has free wired internet, it doesn't have wifi! if you bring your own laptop, this is no problem, but if you need to occasionally use your phone's wifi, then this is a major miss. overall though, the upsides far outweigh the downsides. at the same price, i would definitely stay at the same hotel again.

Great location”

it was the second time for me to stay in this hotel. in octobr 2011, i have reserved a room as the type of grand deluxe through the website from i residence hotel silom. the photos in the hotel website showing room area was around 36 sqm with a bigger shower room including bath tub and a cubicle for standing shower. the second time for me to reserve the type of grand deluxe was through agoda website. i was arranged to stay a smaller grand deluxe. the shower room was small with bath tub and wash basin only. the room area was below 36 sqm. in view of the fact that, i went to receiption for enquiry. they said that the room area of 36 sqm should be "executive deluxe" but i pointed out photos showing room area of 36 sqm for "grand deluxe" in the hotel website. as a result, the staff made good arrangement for me to change a room as same as the first time i have stayed. in conclusion, i would like to know how many types of grand deluxe room in i residence hotel silom. if photos showed wrong details in the website, kindly update and amend details. don't make confusion for customers.

lovely hotel and service good ”

Being directly opposite to BTS Station Chong Nonsi, I-Residence Hotel Silom offers guests a unique opportunity of shopping and leisure in the capital of Thailand. Among the popular landmarks, some of the must-see attractions are Jim Thompson House, a beautiful teak house with lots of interesting art objects and sculptures and Museum of Imaging Technology, which provides information about the evolution of photo technology. Wat Pho is just 5 kilometres from this hotel.

nice location”

comfortable boutique hotel in bangkok with a location that will please the tourist and the businessman, just step from public transportation. situated between silom and sathorn district, adjacent to bts chong nonsi station surrounded by business area and shopping attractions. i-residence silom bangkok hotel provides a full range of facilities , 24 hour services as well as a trust worthy security system.

great locaton, nice service”

I chose this hotel because I like to clubbing and night life in BKK. For those who have these entertainment needs, I guess the hotel can generally fulfill every possible need of yours. the location is great, near the BTS and Silom Rd., and quite convenient to grab everything you need or wanna to eat. But the facilities are old, even though they are all looked pretty new. The bed and breakfast are OK for this price. But it sucks to charge you additional fee for in-room internet use. also, the gym is at 1 floor, near the parking lot. and no one use it(i stayed there three days and see no one use the gym) if you have to make a choice between I residence and The Heritage, the one next to i-hotel, my recommendation will be Heritage. Same location, but lower price, free internet, and newer facilities.

good stay”

I found the i residence hotel to be value for money the staffs english is good rooms clean and meals ok.With the red shirt problems not that many guests were there,skytrain is right outside the hotel but silom station was closed due to problems,theres a 24hr mcdonalds right next door,and plenty of 7.11s close.lots of police and solders close to silom rd but the problems wont be around for long,at no time did we feel unsafe.The breakfast is quite good,in one wing of hotel need 2 lifts to get to restraunt floor,free internet room on 5th floor.

Good place to stay while in Bangkok”

I Residence was a good base for our stay in Bangkok. It is located right next to the Chong Nonsi BTS station, making the rest of Bangkok quite accessible. It is in the Silom area where so much happens day and night. The hotel is fairly new, and is quite modern in looks. There is a restaurant and swimming pool on the 10th floor, both quite nice and enjoyable to experience. The room was clean, spacious and comfortable, offering all amenities one would expect. The hotel lobby is a bit difficult to locate as it is at the back of the parking garage. The concierge desk also serves as a travel desk. We booked two different excursions through them and they were excellent in making sure that they explained what value we were getting for our money, even recommending a better option to one of the tours we originally wanted to take. The better option turned out to be a fantastic evening out! The front desk staff were always courteous and helpful. Unfortunately, internet is not free unless one goes to the restaurant on the 10th floor and eats for a minimum amount. Overall, a great, comfortable stay.

Sanctuary from the heat and hustle”

i booked a 3 night stay very last minute the day i flew into bangkok, my first time in asia. from the airport it was easy enough to negotiate the airport train and connect to the silom line on bts air train. once at the chong nonsi stop, you can see the hotel clearly. for the super deal i got on agoda, plus the free upgrade to business class room, i thought the hotel was knockout. i loved my modern, clean room, strong & quiet air conditioning, large flat screen tv, room safe, huge breakfast with strong coffee, and rooftop pool. location was great, right next to sky train. quick trip to river ferry to sight seeing, also quick to shopping and cinema at siam stop. since traveling solo i was not out partying. two nights i ate dinner right outside hotel at lek seafood for super fresh and spicy thai food with cold beer. if you're looking for super luxurious, beware there is not much of a reception area - its at garage level of building. breakfast is in outdoor pool area, so there's no swank bar nor restaurant area. there are nice tables, chairs and lounges poolside to have a drink and overlook city. bangkok was broiling in april; my hotel room was a sanctuary from the hot mayhem! excellent and friendly staff.

my stay at i residence silom”

i loved to stay at i residence silom, thailand. their staff is friendly,the room also perfect. This hotel is just next to BTS station chang nonsi..so its quite convenient for me to travel around central bangkok. if i ever come to bangkok again, i would to stay at this hotel because its price is not so expensive and it is located near to the BTS station.

Great Place To Stay”

I Residence Silom Hotel is a great place to stay. It is on the quiter side of Silom and just few steps away from the Skytrain Station (Chong Nonsi) and around 10 minutes walking to the nightlife area (Patpong and Surawongse). Also near mini market, Mc Donald's and there's a traditional market not far from the hotel. A great place to stay.What more could you ask for? Surely will come back and stay here on my next trip to Bangkok.
