mesquite Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Has anyone stayed overnight in Bangkok Hospital CM in a standard room? What are the rooms like? I know two people who stayed there but were put in intensive care rooms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
israthai Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Yes I did, the rooms are fine with shower and toilet, a little kitchen, extra bed/sofa where another person can stay overnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
narkeddiver Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 I agree with Israthai - rooms are fine especially compared to CM Ram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mesquite Posted August 22, 2016 Author Share Posted August 22, 2016 OK, thanks. When I was there they kept telling me all were full, then put me in intensive care. Two others I know had the same experience, leading me to wonder if they even have standard rooms. BTW, overall how would you rate them? Would you go back?

narkeddiver Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 I rate them highly - the staff are professional, the rooms are nice and even the food is good As to whether I would go back or not unfortunately I have to go back tomorrow for a minor procedure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mesquite Posted August 22, 2016 Author Share Posted August 22, 2016 (edited) I found the MD's and some of the staff to be very good and, now, will probably go back as opposed to spending more money to fly to Bangkok and go to Bumrungrad. Best of luck, ND, on your procedure tomorrow. Edited August 22, 2016 by mesquite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiang mai Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 The best hospital room I ever stayed in was at Bumrungrad, all mod. cons. including large flat screen and room service menu's for McD., KF and Petit Pan on the table next to the bed. The worst room was at Suan Dok where the aged TV didn't work, the air con was hit and miss and the place hadn't been painted since it was built. The price difference between the two around 5k baht with Suan Dok costing 1k baht per day. The more satisfactory medical experience, from a patients perspective, was at Suan Dok, go figure.

Sparkles Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Why anyone would fly to Bangkok to go to Bumrungad is hard to fathom as hospitals,well the best of them in CM ,are comparable in quality of professional care and half the price. I guess its all in the marketing.Most of us go to hospital for treatment not junk food room service Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the room service menu's were there, regardless of whether you wanted them to be so or not, it's not as if marketing teams came around every two hours and forced patients to order from them!

Sparkles Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Was talking about the Hospitals marketing not the food.They have convinced many people that they are the number one hospital in Thailand .From my own personal experience I would dispute that from my personal experience that but obviously can't go into details.I thought you were in CM at the time.Good to hear you are ok.
