Bangkok Province hotels & places to stay

This is my second visit since last year. Showed some improvement at receptionist counter (More attentive and polite). Check in and out was fast, paid deposit of THB2000 for 3 nights by credit card which will be refund when you check out (Hotel in Bangkok need deposit during stay, so is ok for me). Booked Luxury Room at Main Tower, rooms are spacious, clean with stable wifi and clean big bath room with clean bathtub, everything as show in Agoda website. Only downside is the bathroom, very slippery floor, so be careful everyone. (I nearly fell a few times during my stay, hope something can be done before accident happens for other guest). Last of all, this hotel is very close to most shopping center in Pratunam and there are a lot of small night stall outside hotel and famous chicken rice are just opposite of hotel but will need to walk around 15-20 mins to reach nearest BTS. Will still choose to stay here if there's room promotion on my next trip to Bangkok.

I have been in many hotels in Bangkok over the years, but the first hotel I found with really great customer service within the city. From the concierge to the front office manager everyone is ready to help the guests in any way possible. Small but lovely pool. The only downside I would say is the distance to the BTS but they do provide free tuk tuk service to the Nana BTS which helps...

Bangkok Marriott hotel The Surowongse is the Best Hotel in Bangkok...clean, comfortable,staff helpfull and take care..Bathroom hotel is great..you can shower like in the rain..Breakfast delicious expecially Thai food. like pad thai,fish ball soup..There also have chinese food , western food and japanese food yummy...Thank you Bangkok Marriott hotel The Surowongse made my holiday memorable ever after..

One of my favorite hotels in Bangkok, if not, in all of Thailand. Let's consider the price first. Chances are, on most nights, you can get a high floor room here. Considering the location (Siam shopping/nightlife), and... that this is an authentic 5 star, you just won't go wrong. The only minor setback: just one restaurant in this entire (massive) hotel. But the fact the restaurant has amazing staff (I've stayed here many times- they always remember me, even by my nickname)... and the food is truly classy, I'm ok with it. The hotel itself, is elegant, classy... room decor is a perfect mix of modern/chic style, with a hint of bohemian/classic. Very nicely designed rooms, that make it a true 5 star. I'm a fitness buff... so I can't stand hotels that delegate a small room in a basement somewhere, put two treadmills, and a workout ball in the middle, and then say "fitness center" included... this hotel, has a real gym- with real machines- even a smith machine (bench press, shoulder press, etc) with sufficient 20 kg plates around for a serious workout. Full credits to the hotel for this point. It's a big enough gym and very modern too, to feel like you're in a real gym and be motivated. The spa (included, in the rooms) is nice too- with a great steam room, hot tub, and, sauna. Love staying here... a great workout... then relax in the steam room, and then get some amazing food at their restauarant. Seriously, for this price- you'll have a hard time finding better in this area. I know, for I've tried many others in the area, and always end up coming back here.

Booked 2 nights Standard Zone Superior Room, but got a free upgrade to Junior Suite. Arrived earlier at the hotel and was allowed to check in earlier. Staff was friendly and helpful with our luggage. Took the lift on the left side up to level 39 where our room was. Corridor's lightings was dim and looked old but still clean. Room 3903 was very spacious and clean, had great view of the Bangkok city. But room looked old. There were complimentary bottles of mineral water, toothbrushes/pastes, shower cap, shower cream etc. Breakfast was located at level 78 and 82 from 6am to 10am. We could choose which level to go. Breakfast was buffet style, had wide varieties and it was great to enjoy the food with the view of the Bangkok skyline. Overall, it was a great stay at the tallest hotel in Bangkok. Some tips: - easy access from Suvarnabhumi Airport via the Airport Rail Link to Ratchaprarop Station about 25mins, 40 Baht. Walk about 10mins. -hotel provide free shuttle service Line 1 to some BTS station Line 2 Chatuchak only weekend Line 3 to Airport Rail Link Ratchaprarop -free access to the revolving viewing deck but take note it is flooded with tourists especially tour groups from China -hotel lobby for check in/out at level 18 -24hour Family Mart convenience store at lobby area -within walking distance to Pratunam Market, Platinum Fashion Mall, Indra Regent Mall etc

Picked this hotel out because it is 1/2 block from Central Embassy and it's amazing Food Hall Eathai. Basically used it as a place to recover from jet lag for a weekend before spring boarding to Hong Kong and Phuket. The price was very reasonable, so I wasn't expecting much. This hotel blew me away! Despite being in a great location with access to the Sky Train and Malls, it is a very well apportioned and relaxing refuge from the city. The staff is very accommodating, the buffet breakfast is excellent and the rooms are spacious, modern and beautiful. The one bedroom suites come with a washer/dryer combo which has allowed me to avoid any laundry fees. Had two other Bangkok hotels booked between and after Hong Kong and Phuket. After viewing Bangkok Hotel #2 and being underwhelmed, I cancelled there and booked at the Grande Centre Point for both of the other Bangkok stays. They stowed my extra luggage while I was out of town. This is a hidden gem. Book it!

In Dec 2008, my girlfriend and I came back to one of my favorite hotels in Bangkok for the first time in several years. It still has one of the best locations for shopping (which my girlfriend loves) and definitely the best swimming pool in all of Bangkok (which attracts me). The rooms have also been upgraded and are nicer, though smaller than before. Thus, among the 4 & 5-star hotels in the city (which I have visited over 50 times in the last 20 years), it is still one of my favorites if not my favorite. However, the prices have also increased markedly and the food choice has been much more limited for several years. The food was always expensive by Bangkok standards, but the old restaurant/bar on the 1F used to have a quite nice variety of simple, normal Thai food at affordable prices. Unfortunately that is no longer the case. Thus, when traveling alone, it no longer makes sense to stay here as there are many reasonable 2- or 3-star alternatives at 1/3 to 1/2 the cost. Nonetheless, if my girlfriend ever wants to go back to Bangkok or if I need stay in a higher class hotel for some reason, I am very likely to come back.

I have spend Four days in Bangkok with Arnoma, Unfortunately the hotel lobby is currently under renovation, but all the facilities are still remain available...the only comments for me was..the hotel don't provide free Wifi....i hope the day when i come back the management have provide this free services..because majority of the hotel in Bangkok hotel are free WIFI...

First of all, this hotel is very luxury at a budget price. Most budget hotels in Thailand have outdated furnishings and wall hangings, but every inch of this hotel is clean, well-maintained, very luxury looking. The staff is outstanding and there is a doorman or other staff about every 20 meters of the hotel. Check-in and check-out was fast, and we even got fast service when we needed an extra room card. I mention this because I read many horror story reviews on here before we booked the place. I only saw crowds in the reception area when a bus came in (which there were many - its one of the biggest hotels in Bangkok). The breakfast was outstanding. You can eat in the cafe, which has outdoor dining, or the upstairs restaurant. Both have the same food, so it depends if want a city view with your breakfast, or some fresh morning air. The Thai restaurant at the top of the hotel wasn't very impressive. The food was bland and overpriced. We live in Northeast Thailand, so maybe we are spoiled. The best part of the hotel was the room. We stayed in a 3-bedroom suite, which was a mini-apartment. It actually looks like the hotel bought a condo building next door and turned the condos into rooms. The beds were comfortable, everything was clean and new, and there was lots of space. We actually only needed 2-bedrooms, but the upgrade price was so cheap we went with 3-bedrooms. The suites have their own lobby, elevators, and secured parking. If you want to go shopping, which was the primary reason we stayed at this hotel (the kids needed clothes for school), there is a 6-floor fashion mall below the hotel. Its the place to get good, low priced clothes (6th floor has a food court). If you want to save even more money, get up at 3am and walk outside. From 3-6am, the streets around the hotel hold the largest clothes wholesale market in SE Asia. Hundreds of sellers line the streets selling every kind of clothes you can think of. We saved 70% on school clothes this year.

My favourite hotel in Bangkok, with the perfect location for shopping both in the attached centre or if you want to take the BTS and go to all the other Malls... Facilities and rooms are both fantastic and the breakfast is the best you will get in Bangkok Hotels. The staff really look after you - this is the most perfect hotel in the best location in Bangkok. I will definately stay here again and again and would highly recommend it to any travelers looking for the luxury and convenience combination.

My family of 6 adults and a 3-year old toddler had the best 3 nights in Bangkok, all thanks to Glow Pratunam Hotel. Everything was excellent and we enjoy it very much despite being in the middle of Bangkok Shutdown and protest. We've booked two rooms - our request for connecting room was fulfilled. Drop an email right after booking and their reply came right after it. Fast and effective service. Twin Deluxe and King Deluxe together. The room is spacious even with 2 extra beds! Room is clean with comfortable beds. Bathroom also roomy and spotless. PROS - Location! Very near to the Platinum Fashion Mall and Pratunam Market. Also, seven floors below the hotel is a shopping haven with reasonable and cheap bargains, the Shibuya 19. - There's two 7-11 nearby and a family mart (closed when we were there, maybe due to shutdown) - Bathrobes and slippers provided. The carpet-less floor is quite chilly especially when you woke up in the morning. - Iron and ironing board is also available upon request and was sent to our room few minutes after the call to housekeeping. - Daily complimentary bottled water according to number of occupants. - Bathroom amenities includes toothbrush & toothpaste, cotton buds and other usual items such as shower foam, shampoo and hand wash (smells nice too). - Staff are always pleasant and very generous with smiles. - Muslim Traveller: Food is not an issue, there are 3 halal stalls (Indian, Middle East & Thai cuisine) located at Shibuya 19 Food Court, level 6. Along the road, there are also several halal Indian restaurants available. There also 2 more halal stalls at Platinum Food Mall. CONS - Quite far to BTS station. Around 10 min walk. But easy to hail a cab in front of the hotel and the cab (metre) fare is cheap too. - The hotel lobby is at level 7, so you need to take a lift from Shibuya 19 and another lift to your room. No comment on breakfast as we did not opt for it.

Our stay in Bangkok was a short mini vacation to enjoy some sightseeing and shopping. We booked The Shangri-La Hotel in Bangkok after reading the reviews and the hotel is absolutely breathtaking. Hidden inside the bustling area of the city, within walking distance of the small shops and day spas, it was exactly what we were looking for. It is located along the river and from our executive suite room, it was a was a fabulous view. Our package included access to the Horizon Club (where breakfast, all day drinks, evening canapes were served and a delightful private area to just relax) and daily buffet breakfast at the hotel's restaurant. Our room was spacious, with separate living area and full bedroom with king size bed. There were luxurious L'Occitane toiletries provided. Customer service was impeccable as the hotel staff were extremely polite and helpful. There is also a complimentary boat ride to the River City Walk Mall and a night market. The buffet was plentiful, although there was no authentic Thai food served, but American, Chinese and Japanese buffet items, the usual fare served at buffets. The hotel gym was being renovated but the hotel provided an adequate substitute facility in the adjacent wing. Also, I found transportation provided by the hotel was quite pricey at 2700BHT; we took a metered regular taxi from the airport and with tolls amounted 4-450 with tip and to the airport amounted to 500 with tip. Taxi vans are a little more at 600. Taxis taking you around the city may try to coerce you into trying a tour or 2; the drivers have sponsors to take you to their shop or travel agency; we experienced this while we were there. The driver was actually nice though so we agreed and actually the souvenir place was very reasonable. We would definitely return to The Shangri-La when in Bangkok again.

Relaxing holiday in Avani Riverside Bangkok Hotel with friendly staff, infinity pool, rooftop bar lounge. It will be perfect if there is sauna or steam bath. Sufficient choices for breakfast with quality food. Very good Seafood Buffet on Friday. I used eatigo to book a table at 9 pm at half-price. My husband and I were the only customers at the time. Excellent value for money. A small shopping mall at the hotel building provided convenience of some choices if you don't want to go out again by shuttle boat. Only -ve point, promoters for tour package were too aggressive who approached us for cruise or tour package 4 times in 2 days, which made me annoying.

Centara has 2 hotels in Bangkok, this one and Centara Grand at Great world - don't get mixed up. The one at Great World is the bigger (and more expensive) one - but there you also are facing more traffic jams. But it all depends on the purpose of your visit. I did stay in Centara Grand at Central Plaze because we had meetings in Chon Buri, Rayong and Bangkok as well - and this location made it quite easy and fast to travel to the Eastern Sea Board and also to access the business district in Bangkok without too much jam. Also, if you are going back to the new airport in the early afternoon it takes only 30 minutes (taxi approx. 300 Baht). The check-in was fast and efficient, staff at this place very friendly and helpful. Rooms are nicely renovated (have stayed here before a few years back), amenities are well sorted and whatever you need is available. Breakfast is amazingly good, huge spread of different foods, good bread and nice coffee, service a bit slow at rush hour times. The Cappucino Caffee (part of the coffee house) offers cakes, snacks and nice salads if you don't want to eat a full meal. Housekeeping and Engineering function well - no reason at all o complain. Internet seems to be a bit difficult, there is a relatively new law in Thailand regarding wireless log-in - so, it needs some time to get it all set up. Anyhow, if you want to eat somewhere else and not in the hotel (they have several different restaurants, though), there is easy access directly from the hotel to Central Plaza where you can find plenty of restaurants and a decent food court (The Loft) as well. At the same time you can get all your shopping needs covered in this shopping centre - or you take the MRT to other big malls not so far (don't try taxi because that might take a very long time, depending on traffic conditions, which are usually bad). The hotel is still in a kind of upgrading process (by mens of administrative organisation), i.e. check-out at present is a bit slow - but ok.

The Chatrium Suites is an excellent choice in Bangkok - especially if you value the glorious river view, and enjoy the quintessential Bankok visitor experience of traveling by boat on the Chao Phraya river. If you need to frequently travel to the center of Bangkok shopping and activities, the location and boat connection may grow tiresome. Our arrival reception was gloriously welcoming - a group of beaming hotel staff rushed to take our bags, escort us to the room and treat us like returning family. The room was enormous with a spacious kitchen unit, however our unit was not actually equipped to actually cook any meals. Overall the facilities were very good, however our carpet was stained, and a bit frayed. We enjoyed the busy, but comfortable swimming pool which is not quite up to the "destination resort" pool feeling at some similar level Bangkok hotels I have stayed (Nai Lert Park, Antara), but definitely better than the small rooftop hotel pools that seem more typical at Bangkok hotels. I would recommend the nearby Asiatique riverside, restaurant/shopping/entertainment complex . Asiatique is a 5-minute taxi ride (much longer by river, unless you swim) and only 50 baht taxi fare – though on our return to the hotel we had to struggle to find a cab who would use the meter and not charge us a flat 100 baht fare. Asiatique is somewhat touristy, but there seemed to be enough locals to give it an energetic, authentic feel - our meal at Checkmate was very pleasant, and the singer at the 9E Furniture Bar was amazing.

This hotel is a 'real' 5 star hotel. I've stayed in three 5 star hotels in Bangkok prior to Grand Centre Point. This beats them all. The staff are fun and consistently polite to guests. They play with the children interact with the guests and add a nice feel to the hotel. Breakfast had flavourful, good quality produce which was great for 320baht if you don't include breakfast in your booking. The design of the hotel is stylish and modern plus the view from our 26th floor room was amazing. You could see Bangkok for miles. head to the pool with a glass barrier around the outside where Bangkok can be seen... as well as heard quite well! One problem with it was the gym it was a little empty however you don't really spend your time in a gym! One last problem was the Spa area. I really wanted to just go inside and see it before I booked anything however this was prohibited. Even when no one is using it you still can't have a look with a member of staff.

Enjoyed my stay with Centara Watergate and never regretted chosing this hotel for our anniversary trip! The location may be a little hard to locate so we printed an A4 sized map in thai for the taxi driver (I requested it via email). So far we are able to guide the taxi driver/tuk tuk to the hotel, you just need to remember the better known landmarks like Baiyoke Sky or Baiyoke Suite (rainbow building). The bellboys are really helpful and nice, especially Mr Prawit. He is always busy helping people! The rest of the team are very nice too though I only remembered Mr Prawit's name. Even though they are busy they never fail to open the doors for us with a smile! And they are also very nice to help us get a cab to the lobby while we wait in the waiting area. Our room is quite spacious. Just like the other hotels in Bangkok. Though this hotel may not have the best location but it's quite convenient to walk to the pratunam market and platinum mall. We walk to Central World everytime though, to the nearest bts station at Chitlom too and it took us 15mins-20mins. You can walk and explore the shops or night market around.. I recommend this hotel for couples and individuals.

We stayed in this hotel for 4 nights while in Bangkok. The rooms are absolutely BEAUTIFUL, marble everything, great shower, nice tub for baths, free bath bombs, great feeling sheets. You definitely feel like your staying in luxury, but for such a reasonable price! The staff is very attentive and will rush to open the door for you when they see you coming back, carry all your suitcases for you, etc. For the price I don’t think you will be able to find another hotel in Bangkok that offers this much. The breakfast buffet was amazing, they had a western side and Asian side. In the afternoons they serve snacks available to the guests for free from 2pm-5pm which was nice. I would absolutely stay in this hotel again if I come back to Bangkok!

For those who have rated this hotel/serviced apartment complex as anything other than wonderful you are either on drugs or in urgent need of seeing a doctor. I have stayed at the Grande Centre Point (GCP) on four occasions now – total of 32 nights – and I remain convinced it is not just one of the best located (direct access to BTS, main Sukhumvit Road etc) hotels in Bangkok but the best value. Yes, it is not everybody’s budget but for those happy at $100/120 per night (there are days, but not many, when these prices are significantly more expensive) don’t waste your time looking elsewhere. If having shopping on your door step is a plus, then you have the brand new Terminal 21 shopping centre. And you if you want cheaper shopping then the extensive range of street stalls on Sukhumvit Road are just outside. If gym work is a chore to you, the hotel has tried to make it much easier with an extensive array of equipment (not some puny little room stuck somewhere in a corner as with so many hotels in the City) – all with built in tv monitors. If you like a swimming pool and sun deck that is not just a paddle pool with some under-investment in sun loungers, then again GCP wins. And this is before you discover that there is a very generous area given to crazy golf and tennis. What other hotel in the City gives you these facilities ? Many of the great restaurants of Bangkok are on the Sukhumvit stretch, so you have all these within easy walking or taxi (or BTS) distance from you. Terminal 21 itself has many good quality eateries. For the ‘night lovers’ you have Soi Cowboy 100 meters away. Finally if there was a criticism I had in early stays at GCP it was the staff were under-trained but management have obviously put some time and investment into this critical service. So yes I can understand why some people will argue the case for other hotels in Bangkok (there are after all some magnificent ones in the City), they tend they tend to be in a significantly more expensive

This was our first time coming to Bangkok and I was unsure of where to stay. I saw that a lot of hotels were located in Sukhumvit, so I figured they were fairly close together and booked this one based on the user ratings and price. Although, it is a very nice hotel with good rooms and well appointed, my mistake was not knowing how long it would take to get to any meaningful sights by taxi. Traffic is horrible and often takes close to an hour to get to the main attractions. Thankfully, the cost is usually around 200 baht. You have to negotiate flat rates at night, but the taxi drivers will tell you some story about night pricing being higher and they don't run the meter. If you are in Bangkok to shop, then the train will be fine to Siam Station and the shopping is really amazing here. That wasn't on our agenda, but we did check out the mall, since we wanted to buy some mobile phones for our next month of travel through SE Asia. One thing we found out too late was that the Marriott down the street is known for having an amazing rooftop bar and it could have been an alternative option for something to do in the area instead of going to other regions of Bangkok. If the hotel were in a more convenient location, it would have garnered almost all 5 stars. If you plan on just shopping and using the Sky Train to sssssssss, then you will be fine. The cost is super cheap (34 baht) from Siam to Thong Lo (station is only a 5 min walk to the hotel).

One of the best stay i & my wife ever have in bangkok. During our past visit we have stayed in many hotel,ranging from 2 star to 5 star. We find our stay in centre point petchburi bangkok is most satifying. Its value for money & you are getting a 5 star service from the hotel staffs. The hotel & the room is sparkling clean. Housekeeping is ever obliging. The security staff is very attentive & alert of any one entring the hotel compound, which make it very safe. Definately will make Centre point petchburi our permanent place of choice for our next visit to bangkok. Agoda fulfilled all the request made during the booking....many thanks to Agoda

We stayed for 1 night at Novotel Bangkok Platinum Pratunam for our 5th Wedding Anniversary. Absolutely the Best hotel in Bangkok we stayed so far - compared to the other 4 Stars and 5 Stars hotel we stayed before; from the Superb location, amazing customer service and hospitality from hotel entrance till lounge at 24th floor, very comfortable accommodation, tasty food in restaurant, service are really top class. Have been telling our friends and family of this short yet amazing wonderful time we had in Novotel. Would definitely come back and stay here on our next family visit, which will be with our 3 years old son and my parents. Thanks for making our 5th Wedding Anniversary even more memorable, Novotel :)

In my opinion, the lebua is one of the best hotels in Bangkok. Although we did only stay there for one night, we enjoyed the stay very much. The room was huge, with a big bed, couches and complimentary minibar. The room attendant was very professional and caring. As we did arrive too late in the evening to get to the tower club lounge, we were provided with complimentary drinks as a compensation. Best of all was the view over the city from the balcony in the 57th floor, espacially at night. There are a lot of interesting streets you can walk around close to the lebua, but it is also easy to get to the bts from there. A must-see is the bar/restaurant in the hotel, breeze, where you can fetch drinks and food while looking at the skyline of Bangkok - wonderful.

Value for many. Strong points: Near BTS station, good room, nice view from high floors, comfortable bed, dream pillows, funny bathroom, very nice bistro on first floor (professional staff), quick check in and check out. Weak points: Breakfast below average for Bangkok, Sky bar is overpriced and staff are awful (not smiling and annoying), Smoking allowed near the pool. In general, very nice place for 4 star hotel in Bangkok, value for many.

I enjoyed the stay at the Continent. It clearly follows a successful formula for Bangkok of providing a sophisticated product that comes across as having all the frills. The staff we genuinely hospitable and very efficient and professional and were helpful throughout which is a standard for all the better hotels in Bangkok. Ftether than that I would say my experience of the staff was on a par with hotels that might be charging a rate of 50% more. It does not really have the size and scale to feel like a 5 star property, I think that it is better classed as a very good quality boutique 4-star hotel. The rooms like the above indicates were well thought out with sexy design elements and fairly good quality fittings and maintenance but uses a lot of clever design ideas to mask the fact that they are not in fact all that large hence my reluctance to agree that it is a 5-star property. That said it was a quality and enjoyable experience staying in the room. Certainly for the price the hotel delivered plenty of value and is an easy recommendation to friends and family who want to stay. -there also was not much sign of any of the sleaziness that can be evident in other hotels in Bangkok.

It is so hard to pick just one outstanding feature of this Chatrium property because it excels in all respects. I have been a guest at several 4 and 5-Star hotels in Bangkok and the Chatrium Residence Sathorn stands out from them all with the abundance of landscaping and flowers found around the property and especially around the large park setting which surrounds the lagoon shaped pool. It is so enjoyable to have an evening cocktail at the “Flow Bar”, an outdoor venue, and feel like you are sitting within a well manicured jungle. I was raised on a flower farm so I appreciate the efforts of the Gardening Staff who keep the vegetation so healthy and pruned. I would like to especially thank Phinthu, a quiet man who is an expert horticulturist.

Stayed 2 nights and have no complaints. Some minor details to point out: Breakfast menu is very basic. Coffeemakers are a great idea but need to be adjusted to cup sizes (serves quarter or half cup only). Staff is very friendly and accomodating and rooms are very clean. Bathroom fixtures are top of the notch, not what you can expect in a Bangkok Hotel of this price range and Location! Had no chance to visit Gym or Pool so can't comment on that. Will be sure to book this hotel again when I come to Bangkok
