was looking for accommodation for a 2 night stop in Bangkok. Was slightly fed up of the usually hussle bussle that comes with most places in Bangkok an needed somewhere not far from Don Muang airport for flight to Buriram. so saw this place on maps.google and thought we should give it a go! So it is slightly off the beaten track, but was a great place, Front reception desk staff were brilliant, couldn't do enough for you, they were very helpful, polite and well informed of surrounding area. food was good, nice restaurant, room service was good. Room was very good, nice comfortable bed and shower/toilet room was very nice, only draw back was the power of the shower, (my wife described it as a dog reaching the last tree in a large forest!!) Would definitely stay here again. 20 minutes from Don Muang, and about 45 minutes through traffic from Suvarnabhumi

“Totally Unexpected ”

Have the hotel contact number ready when taking the cab. Taxi drivers (all) didn't have problem sending me here after talking to the receptionist. The location is really a little out unless you need to be around the Don Muang area. Let the reception know early that you need a cab to somewhere, and the cab will be waiting for you when the time comes, else waiting time could stretch to 30 minutes or more. The hotel provides tuk tuk to the nearest train station and Tesco. Let them know early too. Getting a cab back from Sukhumvit area was a challenge. Hailing a cab from the streets would likely set you back by at least THB300. I only managed to bargain down to 250B. I suggest you Q at big malls. From Emporium (only the 5th driver agreed), the meter fare was 160B. The hotel lobby is cozy. There's a small section selling snacks and drinks and prices weren't marked-up. Simple breakfast - Thai fare with rice and dishes and porridge with condiments, fried eggs and sausages, coffee, English tea and green tea, milk and cereal, and I only managed to snag a cup of yoghurt on one morning (out of 6). Great if you like Thai food. The dishes were absolutely delicious and freshly cooked every morning. Note that this is a halal restaurant and no pork is served. The restaurant, although small was elegantly furnished, clean and comfortable and perhaps new too. Tables weren't cramped together, giving some privacy to diners. It can get crowded in the mornings with many local workers staying there (for trainings) as there are a number of big companies around that area. Room wise, huge room (which looked sparse) with a king bed (clean bed sheet and comfortable mattress) and 2 bedside tables. It was a bit dusty at some hidden areas eg TV wires, the hanging lamps but I guessed it was okay coz I didn't sneeze. Bathroom (don't expect it to be sparkling) was ok and basic with standing shower. Shampoo, bath gel, dental kits, shower cap, sanitary bags and soap were provided. There's a robe and bathroom slippers (not the disposable kind so I didn't use). Check out time is 12pm extendable to 1. Beyond that they charge a hefty fee of more than half the room rate. But you may leave your luggage at the hotel for your last minute shopping. Overall, it was a great stay. Safe. Staff were friendly (but they don't speak much English). Fulfilling breakfast. But do take note of its location before booking.

“One night stay before traveling”

We booked one night. We wanted a hotel close to the MRT for our travels the next day. The hotel is an easy walk from the Tao Poon MRT station and the price is good. We booked a one-bedroom suite. It was extremely spacious and I enjoyed the bathrobe and slippers. When we wanted dinner it wasn’t… more

We booked one night. We wanted a hotel close to the MRT for our travels the next day. The hotel is an easy walk from the Tao Poon MRT station and the price is good. We booked a one-bedroom suite. It was extremely spacious and I enjoyed the bathrobe and slippers. When we wanted dinner it wasn’t a far walk but we had to cross busy traffic and took us awhile to find a 7/11. I tried to use the treadmill in the gym and found 1 out of the 3 worked. I didn’t feel the 1 working treadmill was comfortable so I gave up. Our sleep was good, it was nice to wash our clothes in the washing machine in the room but I felt the room itself was missing character.
