Pros:

The staff were very accommodating about letting me check in early. It was a great hotel if you have a long layover or short stay. The room is very comfortable, the air-conditioning great, views from the restaurant on the roof are lovely and 3 of the main attractions in Bangkok are within walking distance

Cons:

Nothing, the staff and hotel were great.

THE LOCATION IS VERY LOVELY
Pros:

LOCATION WAS SPOT ON FOR THOSE SEEKING LOCAL VIBE

Cons:

ALL THE WALLS ARE DECORATED IN MIRROR. ASIDE FROM THE TINY ROOMS, I FIND THE TOILET AND BATH WEIRD. THERE IS NO PLACE TO UNLOAD YOUR LUGGAGE EXCEPT THE BED

Loved the views and location, felt like Bangkok not like the newly developed areas and skyscrapers!
Pros:

I booked the premium jacuzzi room and the views were incredible. From the balcony you could see Wat Arun and the river and watch the boats go by. In the evening when the restaurants below are open you get the most incredible smells. The restaurant food was good and the view is spectacular as you can also see Wat Pho from the side of the terrace. The room was very comfortable and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The local area has som me great cafes open during the day and a few restaurants opposite that are open in the evening. It is very close to Wat Pho and a the Grand Palace which makes sightseeing easy as you can get there early and beat the crowds.

Cons:

Nothing. I didn't have the breakfast so can't comment on that

Pros:

Fabulous location and amazing view of Wat Arun. The staff were so kind and went out of their way to make us feel at home. I would stay here again!

Cons:

The breakfast “buffet” was underwhelming, but convenient. And, the view from the roof can’t be beat.
