Classy hotel, wonderful rooms, amazing staff!
I've stayed at many, many places around the world, and this remains one of my favorite hotels.
Something about the rooms are so comfortable and stylish. I love having a kitchen, stocked with cookware, chic, simple dishes, and a washing machine.
The amazing staff professionally handled an unexpected personal situation. They went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly. I'm so grateful that I was at this hotel, where the staff will do everything within their power to help.
I experienced how beautiful the Thai culture is. I was treated as a friend, and felt an authentic sincerity. This level of service is rare, and usually only found in 5 star hotels at twice the price.
It's important to stay at a good hotel, especially while traveling in a foreign country, where the unexpected can happen.
Tip: I had trouble adjusting to what seemed to be a combination of humidity in the room and heavy outdoor pollution. Be sure to check the air quality online before opening the windows.
Also, the hotel has an ozone machine to remove heavy toxins like mold, cigarette smoke, etc. Next time, I'll request they run it before check in. They need an hour minimum for the ozone to air out, as it's toxic. So I imagine this option depends on how fully booked they are.
Again, a huge thank you to the fabulous staff at Somerset Thonglor Bangkok!
