Very nice hotel, just a few yards away from the Sky Train station. Upon check-in, the staff offered me a club room for USD 50 surcharge, which was well worth it, as it included breakfast, evening cocktails and internet access. The staff on the club floor was very attentive, professional and addressed me by name. I've stayed in many 5* Bangkok hotels and on club floors, but this club lounge is the nicest one I have encountered in town. It is so spacious, it probably takes up an entire floor and it has these full length windows too, offering great city views (north and south). It is very tastefully decorated and a very good place to relax. The room was also very nice, spacious, decorated in style, and had a comfortable sofa and good working area. My room had these fantastic floor-to-ceiling windows too and a huge flat screen TV. I had a DVD player as well and could lend movies and CD's from the hotel free of charge. Good variety of restaurants, there were 5. I only had dinner in one of them but the food was superb and not overpriced, as most of the hotels. Fantastic swimming pool set in a lush garden. The pool is very large and located on the quiet side of the hotel, so no noise, and it has direct sunlight throughout the day. The pool area is called The View, which offers indeed a spectacular view of the Bangkok skyline.

Plaza Athenee is a nice hotel conveniently located next to All Seasons Place. Staff is friendly. My arrival to the hotel was around 1:00am due to the airlines schedule. Although I booked a couple weeks in advance, on arrival only a 2 bed upgrade room was available, no suites Did not feel like it was an upgraded room, since it compares to so many regular rooms at hotels all over the US.. Room was so so, got a better upgrade room at the Royal orchid sheraton and the Sheraton Grand Sukumvit. Rates usually lower at the Royal Orchid Sheraton. The plus is that you have access to the executive lounge, which provided a nice breakfast, but again the breakfast at the other Sheratons are so much bigger and include much more different selections. But it was worth it to check it out and although there are so many other luxury places to stay at, I give it another try if the rate is good. The experience of enhanced benefits of being a starwood frequent guest is more at the Sheratons in Bangkok.

We have stayed at the Plaza Athenee several times and feel it is the top hotel in Bangkok. The staff is exceptional and the club floor food and service is outstanding. Additionally, having three computer terminals available for the use of guests at no charge is extremely helpful. Also, during this same trip we stayed at one of the other top rated hotels in Bangkok - Must be a new GM there - entirely different from previous experiences and would not return.

My husband and I stayed here for 1 night. Was a very nice, tradtional hotel with a huge lobby and sweeping staircases. The rooms were nice - no complaints.

Location was good - in walking distance the the Central Shopping Centre and a very short walk to the Skytrain station.

A good reliable hotel. Professional but nothing out of the ordinary. If youre looking for something a little different or more exciting,(and for a better price), I would check out the Dream Hotel, Bangkok.
