Wat Bung Toei Holidays from £618

I booked this hotel to move to at the end of a work trip for my personal time and was excited by both the location as well as the hotel amenities. Overall, I'll say my stay was just okay. When I first arrived, the initial staff member that helped check me in seemed a bit rude and despite the fact that I paid in full ahead of my arrival, requested a $300 refundable deposit which I had to take from an ATM as I did not have a travel credit card on hand. I was fully refunded at the end of my stay, but the whole process seemed a bit strange. It would have been great to know about this in advance. I also felt a bit judged, as I had been walking around the city in a matching linen set until check-in and was immediately informed about the dress code, making me feel like I wasn't passing the test...which is a little absurd given that I was dressed casually but appropriate for Thailand in April. My room was really spacious, but honestly like a lot of other reviews have mentioned, the fixtures were really dated. There were scuff marks on the floor from other guests' suitcases, harder to reach areas in the bathroom weren't as clean as they could have been. I will also note that the bed was not comfortable at all. Really needs an upgrade. I also booked this hotel for the sky bar to treat myself and honestly I was really disappointed. Atmosphere was off, drink was just okay and they had a completely different menu than online, and it was EXPENSIVE as hell. Probably wouldn't book again.

I nothing bad to say about this hotel. I will be back at Mandarin Hotel again!

I was upgraded to a fantastic room. I was very appreciative. The hotel is undergoing renovations which are needed. Once completed, it will shine bright again

Friendly staff, clean and secure

Property is nice. The staff is great , friendly, helpful, and efficient. The lobby,pool,dining areas are all beautiful. The room I was placed could use some updating. Other than that everything was nice. I would recommend.

The suite we stayed in was very spacious and comfortable - I love that it is hard floor instead of carpet. Feels cleaner. Bell men are very helpful, especially Mr. Awan (I think that is his name). There is a free tuk tuk to take you to the Silom station. Be aware that the taxi waiting outside the hotel gate refuses to run the meter so if you want a meter taxi you will need the bell man to call one for you.
