DoubleTree by Hilton Bangkok Ploenchit

Room - We booked 2 rooms, a deluxe king for 2 and premium king for our 3 teenage girls. The reception tried their best give us two rooms on the same floor but they could not. We were not too concerned as the girls could manage themselves. It was slightly inconvenient because we could not go to each other's rooms but it also meant the security system and access system was good. It was not a big deal for us. The rooms were adequately sized, and very clean. Toilet/Bathroom: The shower had good water pressure and temperature. I particularly love the toiletries given - Crabtree & Evelyn. The Lobby : Not too big or opulent, but decently grand. It can get a bit crowded during peak check-in or check out times, but the staff managed situations well. The Spa: I must say I love spa and massages and have been to many places in Thailand and Bali. Makkha Spa on the 7th Floor is probably one of the cleanest spas I have ever visited and the therapists were very skilled. The 2 massages I had there was simply divine. Definitely pricier than outside, but the class and cleanliness is different level. The service level - The hotel contacted me day and night daily via Whatsapp message to ask if all was ok with our stay. We truly appreciated the level of service/response time. They even accommodated our request for late-check-out as our flight was much later in the evening. Convenience: The hotel is located in one of the best areas in Bangkok - Ploenchit in Sukhumvit. Walking distance to shops, food, pharmacy, the train station and the streets were clean and safe.

Breakfast was good, a good variety of food and very efficient staff. Well laid out, and very good presentation, clean. Easy access to metro. Concierge was very helpful, despite the English barrier. Check in was a bit shaky but the incorrect charge was quickly smoothed out with an instant reversal and charge of the correct amount.

Great location by MRT and local restaurants. Relaxing massages just down the street and delicious street food on every corner. Far enough away from the partying and really safe and quiet. Fabulous shopping close by. I didn’t have breakfast as seemed expensive if not included and I ate out at a variety of places locally. Staff very friendly and helpful with maps of where to go and how to get there. Drinks at the bar were expensive so I went out instead but cool set up and looked great.

good location, good value for money, very helpful and friendly staff, excellent breakfast, comfortable room.
