THAIPHUKET Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 This guest has little interest in BKK city, want to stay easy more or less in the hotel, pool is important, gym, 4 Star category. I know there are many but not too many where you want to stay put without much venturing out. Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tartempion Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 With 159 4 star and 67 5 star properties a rather difficult question 4 star: I like the Pullman King Power, walking distance to Victory Monument, have free tuk tuk, many eateries within 5 minute walk. Will stay next week at 5* Sofitel Sukhumvit for 2nd time, a few minutes walk from Terminal 21, my preferred BKK hotel for the time being. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mca Posted October 13, 2013 Share Posted October 13, 2013 Eastin Grand Sathorn. Nice gym, great infinity pool view, decent exec floor benefits, nice Italian and Chinese restaurant and if you do venture out it's directly linked to the BTS at Surasak station. http://www.eastingrandsathorn.com/default-en.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PokerFace Posted October 13, 2013 Share Posted October 13, 2013 Try the Imperial Queen's Park. Great location, five minute walk to the BTS and the Emporium, good restaurants, two great pools and a very good gym/health club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RabC Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 Anantara Riverside if they aren't worried about being in the city. Nice pool/grounds, good gym and 3-4 good restaurants on the grounds. Also if they do want to go in to town there is the free ferry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bifftastic Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 Urbana Langsuan is pretty good, if you can get one of the suites (1 or 2 bed + living room). Chid Lom BTS about 5 minutes walk, easy to get anywhere if you do decide to venture out. Pool, bar etc if you don't. Bank/ATM across the street. 7-11 close by too. Decent noodle soup just before the 7 if that's the kind of thing you like as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NanLaew Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 Phachara Suites, Sukhumvit 6. Get a One-bed Executive on the back of the building (ask for large balcony). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcmarcus Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 (edited) How about the best hotel at Suvarnabhumi International Airport? Flying in on ANA from Narita, departing the next morning 0800 on the TG flight to Krabi. Looked at the Novotel but $150 seems high. What other very close hotel could someone recently recommend? Saw other postings but looking for recent insights. Edited October 17, 2013 by jcmarcus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fish fingers Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 (edited) Dusit Princess srinakarin is quite close to the airport, not sure the prices but not expensive. taxi it both ways Edited October 19, 2013 by fish fingers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrantSmith Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 Dusit Princess srinakarin is quite close to the airport, not sure the prices but not expensive. taxi it both ways Your definition of quite close and my definition of quite close vary quite differently Might as well go into the city if you choose to stay at the Dusit Princess or even the Novotel Bangna or The Maple Leaf Hotel - never been to either of these suggestions but the Maple Leaf's sure got some architectural nuances to it. Being the "only" hotel at the airport the Novotel's not too bad, a tad overpriced for what it is, but then again it is - for the time being - the only airport hotel, there's a Le Meridien Resort opening sometime in the next couple of years - slated for June 2014 but I'll bet the farm that won't happen - on the Summit Windmill Golf Course but it's still not going to beat the Novotel for being a hotel "at" Swampy.

mrtoad Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 I'd suggest Grand Four Wings, if you are looking at nearby the airport. Fairly reasonable prices, and the rooms are very comfortable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
