Reception team were not aware of free room upgrade for hotel.com gold member. This has been a problem since Q3 last year when I stayed in the same hotel. Hotel management needs to resolve this problem.

Hyatt Regency Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport
Ganska skön säng. Lite hård lite svikt i. Säkert fint för 20 år sedan. Närheten till terminalen var ett stort plus. God mat och frukost tidigt på morgonen. Skönt att slippa boka flygplatstransfer dit och tilllbska till flygplatsen. Smidigt!

The check in staff however was outstanding and honestly would book again because of the front desk staff anything we needed or address happened before I could hang up the phone. Excellent ...
