The Sukhothai Bangkok

The staff was impeccable and friendly, the location charming and peaceful, and the food was an amazing delight.

Stunning hotel with impeccable service. A tranquil get sanctuary in the heart of all the hustle and hustle of the city. For a more modern feel, stay on the club side. For a more traditional Thai luxury experience, stay on the non-club side. Both are equally beautiful and offer something completely different.

Great hotel, the deluxe suite is amazing. Impeccable service. Nothing around walking distance but all readily accessible via quick taxi rides.

One of my favorite hotels in the world. The lobby with exquisite flowers, the teak and Thai silk furnished rooms, the salt water pool, the morning buffet breakfast, the friendly, accommodating service. The staff knows your name. Also close to good restaurants and the night market. Everything is perfect.

A beautiful hotel to look at but has a functional problem: way-finding. It is very difficult to get around the hotel because of a lack of signs or poorly placed one. Looking for your room? The usual direction signs for where numbered rooms are is not in front of you when you get off the elevator--it's behind you by the elevator buttons. Looking for the pool? There's not sign at all. The gym? The sign is tucked away (see first photo). The toilets near the Italian restaurant? The sign is in an alcove (see second photo). This is could be remedied by putting signs where they will be seen. The gym has no lockers--they're under renovation, so I was told to go upstairs and use the change room by the pool. But it was impossible to find. It's weird--almost as if the hotel's designers were so entranced by the beauty they created they didn't want to mar it with anything functional. One other problem is overly complicated lighting. To use the bathroom light you get to choose "Scene 1" or "Scene 2". I just want to use the bathroom!
