Hi could anyone tell me what to expect of the dinner buffet in Hilton?I tried to google but can't find much information.

How much is it?What kind of food,etc

I would like to go there on December 24th for an anniversary is that a decent place?

Used to go there a while back, think it was 1000 baht a head, i recall it being very good.

Have they fully reopened? I remember there used to be an entrance to their buffet from Central festival.

 

The best hotel buffets in the world were those in Jakarta during the first decade of this century. Remember Mariott or Shangri-La Jakarta? A gargantuan buffet for 20 dollars, and you could gorge there every day of the week and never eat the same thing twice. How they could break even was a mystery. I assume there were few "freeloaders" from outside like me and most customers were hotel guests.

Their Facebook page doesn't have a lot of info for this year, but you can see last year's Christmas Eve diner option;

I think it may be a lot  more than that on 24th

Cannot go wrong with Hilton Hotel buffet's if buffets are open during these covid times, Phuket and Hua Hin delicious awhile back..........

I used to go to the Hilton lunches in Pattaya till the hordes of tourists from a place we can not mention that love sea food or should I say anything they could get on there plates. Spoiled the place with pushing in and shouting. Never been back.

I'm wondering if its the same tourists that barge into an elevator before letting others out first..........

Check there Facebook page.

 

We usually stay there.  Its been just remodeled.

 

Spectacular views and probably the best hotel on the Eastern seaboard.

 

Any buffet I've been to there is has been spectacular.

 

I would book now and ask for a seat inside in case there's rain.

 

Lamb,oysters,sushi, thai food,etc.

 

Rooms are pretty cheap right now too.

 

They usually have a free flow wine, beer, champagne for extra.

Was staying there last week. Evening buffet is "Seafood Buffet", however there is plenty of meat / vege options available. Sushi very good as well. Rate is 972 apart from Friday and Saturday which is 1090. If you're a HHonors member, then make sure you mention it to get your discount. Reason for the Friday/Saturday uplift is it's a "Seafood Extravaganza", in other words same as the rest if the week but with Osters. No booze, but you get Tea or Coffee within the price. Water / Soft drinks are chargeable. Hope that helps.

It certainly was well spoken of and recommended pre-Covid.

Dec 24th might be one of their special dates, like a Gala dinner, which, although being an all inclusive night out (not all drinks beware), are known to be overly expensive.....

hello, any other good buffet that you know ? thanks.

The Dusit Buffet was good once. But I didn't go there for years now and do not know, if it still exists and what quality they offer.

I went at lunchtime.....I didn't think it was good value.

I am a Hilton Honors member and use the service at the Edge buffet several times a week…always an excellent choice and worth the 1100 THB charge…I usually bring 8 to 10 of my friends on the Sunday….everyone leaves happy am way too full! ????????????

I went to the Mariot with about a dozen others on Valentines Day, 2004, showed up at 1100 and we spent the whole day, ate till we dropped, and got snickered on free champagne, wine, whiskey you name it............There was also an Indian Resturant, Queen's Tandoor that had a super sized Buffet, all you can eat for one price .................... Those were the days. -  I wonder if Block M is still open??

What to expect? Let's see, as of today, I'd expect that I wouldn't even be able to get a glass of wine with my dinner. Which means that I wouldn't bother.

Now is probably the best time to try it again
