Bang Rak Phatthana Holidays from NZ$1,608

I booked this hotel to move to at the end of a work trip for my personal time and was excited by both the location as well as the hotel amenities. Overall, I'll say my stay was just okay. When I first arrived, the initial staff member that helped check me in seemed a bit rude and despite the fact that I paid in full ahead of my arrival, requested a $300 refundable deposit which I had to take from an ATM as I did not have a travel credit card on hand. I was fully refunded at the end of my stay, but the whole process seemed a bit strange. It would have been great to know about this in advance. I also felt a bit judged, as I had been walking around the city in a matching linen set until check-in and was immediately informed about the dress code, making me feel like I wasn't passing the test...which is a little absurd given that I was dressed casually but appropriate for Thailand in April. My room was really spacious, but honestly like a lot of other reviews have mentioned, the fixtures were really dated. There were scuff marks on the floor from other guests' suitcases, harder to reach areas in the bathroom weren't as clean as they could have been. I will also note that the bed was not comfortable at all. Really needs an upgrade. I also booked this hotel for the sky bar to treat myself and honestly I was really disappointed. Atmosphere was off, drink was just okay and they had a completely different menu than online, and it was EXPENSIVE as hell. Probably wouldn't book again.

Overall no complain. The room was roomy enough and pleasant. Thank you for your hospitality.

I was upgraded to a fantastic room. I was very appreciative. The hotel is undergoing renovations which are needed. Once completed, it will shine bright again

The staff was very helpful and catered to my every need. Extremely professional.

Located towards the end of Soi 8, you are just far enough away from the craziness of Sukhumvit but only a 3 minute walk to BTS Nana Station. At the front of Soi 8 are many bars, great restaurants, and massage places and there is a small alley way that you can take a short cut to Soi 4 and avoid having to walk on Sukhumvit road. My only disappointment was that the pool was verry small. Breakfast buffet at the Hotel was adequate but nothing special. Cereal, fresh fruits, rotation between ham, bacon or sausages, eggs, breads and croissants, juices for 360 Baht Around $10 USD). Inside scoop, the currency exchange place at the corner of Sukhumvit and Soi 8 offered the best exchange rates in all of Bangkok. Overall, a very comfortable room and great location so highly recommend, especially for singles or couples. Complementary coffee, tea and Expresso machine in the lobby available 24 hours was actually a really nice feature for travelers like me who are coming and going at all hours,
