After the earthquake, we couldn't reenter the hotel, so we lost that night's stay. The following day, when we were allowed to retrieve our belongings, that stay was not refunded either.

Bangkok was the first stop in our trip, and I really liked that this hotel was close to a lot of the activities we planned. The whole interior was top tier, and the rooms were so beautiful. It was such a relief to step into the quiet of the hotel after the hustle and bustle of all the activities. The rooftop bar was also such a great addition. We had drinks one night and just stayed for a few hours taking in the scene and lights. 10/10 would recommend!

This hotel is such a gem. Walking distance to Ratchaprarop station means hasle-free commute from the Suvarnabhumi Airport to the hotel. Aside from that, this property is a walkable distance to the Pratunam shopping district which is sooo appreciated, especially if you love their morning wholesale market. Additional to the location, the hotel itself has warm and friendly front desks and an amazing hospitality (free afternoon snack prior to check in). The gym was pretty decent too. Overall, I would definitely come here again!!

This was a wonderful Hotel with beautiful rooms and fantastic staff, who were extremely helpful. We enjoyed the Rooftop Bar and Restaurant where we drank and ate for the one evening we stayed there. We didn't use the rooftop pool but it's next to the bar and the views at night with the city lit up are super!

Overall a good experience, not without it's issues though. Firstly, our transfer from BKK airport to the hotel didn't show up, apparently because the member of staff left the company before booking. They did rectify this and refund our transfer booking. Secondly, there was some dirt or potentially human waste on the bidet hose, which clearly wasn't cleaned properly before we checked in. This was sorted after we raised it with the front desk. Other than these issues it was a pleasant stay.

My stay was excellent and service is very good. The rooms feel luxury and Hugh quality although they are a bit small but for the price it's completely worth it. They also have a lounge area with free snacks and nibbles which was beyond simply basic nibbles rather delicious and extravagant. Location is really good too, managed to walk to quite a few places and avoid the Bangkok traffic.
