All the staff are very very respectful and service is just remarkable, the whole resort is sparkling clean. However, restaurants are not in the phone directory or on their website so you had to dial and wait for the operator to transfer you which twice took me 3 redials to finally get the operator and was then transferred to room service instead of the Thai restaurant. We were there for 4 nights and not a lot of food choices for dinner. Also, Dusit must rethink of easier and faster way to check out.
