Categories

Cleanliness
6.2
Mixed reports: several guests reported mold and soiled sheets in some rooms, while others noted tidy and clean beds; cleanliness appears inconsistent and needs improvement.
Service
7.2
Generally helpful and efficient staff and an airport transfer service cited positively, but there are notable service failures (e.g., driver forgetting to unload luggage, unexpected extra charges at reception) that lower the score.
Location
8.5
Very close to the airport and convenient for early flights (positive repeatedly mentioned); drawbacks include aircraft noise, distance from Bangkok centre, few nearby shops and stray dogs making the area feel unsafe at night.
Room Quality
6.8
Rooms described as comfortable with good beds by many guests, but some rooms reported dampness/mold and worn bedding; rooms would benefit from refreshment/renovation.
Amenities
7
Airport shuttle service is available (and often reliable) but there are complaints about its consistency; limited on-site amenities (guests asked for bicycles) and few nearby facilities.
Value for Money
8.8
Consistently noted as cheap with good price-to-quality ratio for a short overnight stay; many guests highlighted the affordable rates as a key positive.
Food and Beverage
7.6
Standard quality for this hotel tier
Overall Experience
8.7
Good option for a transit/overnight stay near the airport: comfortable, affordable and generally satisfactory, but marred for some by cleanliness issues, occasional service lapses and the surrounding area's safety/noise.

Bien pour une nuit avant son avion
Pros:

L'hôtel est à proximité de l'aéroport et propose un service de navette jusque celui-ci. C'était top !
Nous avions notre avion tôt et le personnel est venu nous réveiller.

Cons:

C'est un bon hôtel pour passer une nuit avant son avion, c'est tout. La salle de bain est très humide, pas mal de moisissures sur les joins, et la chambre en elle même n'est pas très accueillante (lumière blanche, lit pas très confortable,...).

Pour une nuit avant un avion : oui.
Pour plusieurs nuits à Bangkok : il y a bien mieux ailleurs.

Hôtel pratique pour 1 nuit
Pros:

L’hôtel est situé à environ 15 minutes de l’aéroport, ce qui est très pratique pour une arrivée tardive ou un départ matinal. Malgré la proximité de l’aéroport, le bruit des avions reste compréhensible compte tenu de l’emplacement. Pour une seule nuit de transit, l’établissement remplit son rôle.

Cons:

Les chambres sont très sommaires et mériteraient d’être mieux entretenues. Le rideau de douche était couvert de moisissures et la chambre dégageait une forte odeur d’humidité, ce qui n’était pas agréable. L’isolation phonique est également un vrai point faible : les chambres résonnent beaucoup et nous entendions très facilement les conversations et les bruits des autres occupants, ce qui nuit au repos.

Hôtel bien située pour une nuit en transit.
Pros:

Notre avion a atterri durant la nuit à Bangkok. Le L42 Hostel Suvarnabhumi Airport était suffisant pour y passer le reste de la nuit. Il est situé non loin de l'aéroport (BKK). Cela nous a permis de nous reposer pour ensuite de reprendre la route le lendemain matin vers notre destination.

Cons:

Qu'il n'y ait pas d'ascenseur pour nous rendre dans nos chambres situées à l'étage. Ceci dit, vu le prix de la chambre, nous étions satisfaits malgré l'absence d'ascenseur.
