Felt like a queen as I was greeted by the beautiful thai customs by the thai staff. They are all very professional, and the appartments are beautiful. Most of the appartments have the same layout, and they're beautiful. I had a massage on the second floor one night, and retired to my enormous, luxurious room to watch a dvd (that you borrow from the reception for free, and watch on the dvd player on the large screen in your room). Had a shower under the enormous rain shower head. Ordered room service (always very prompt), and sat back and RELAXED! This is the perfect place for pampering yourself. It's not right in the centre of town, but it's only a short walk. It is in a very upmarket area, and you feel very safe going out at night as a single woman on your own. Only downside - the staff don't speak fantastic english, and my food was always far too spicy, but in a way, you feel more like you're in an authentic thai hotel. If they'd all spoken with american accents, that would have spoilt the experience. The walls are thin too, unfortunately, and you do hear your neighbours, but although this usually bothers me, I was so happy and relaxed in the surroundings, it wasn't such a problem. I felt very safe here, and the staff are genuinely LOVELY! Not just typically 'thai polite', but you feel they really care. I had some lovely 'chats' with the reception staff. Genuinely happy folk! I actually found myself missing them when I left! If I come back to Bangkok I will stay here (perfect for a romantic stay - whether that be romantic on your own, or in a couple). Good mariott standards with genuine thai authenticity. I really liked this place.
