Luxurious, Sumptuous, Family Friendly
Amazing stay with my family - used this as a meet up spot for my extended family coming from Australia and other areas of UK for a big family holiday. Hotel is very luxurious with exceptionally helpful staff. Pool great. Bars and restaurants without fault. Breakfast buffet is superb. Lucky to be upgraded to a loft suite which was out of this world. Access to own private checkin and concierge with own breakfast and high tea dining facility which we only used once as the main breakfast buffet was so sumptuous. This will be my regular go to from now on when in Bkk.

I have stayed at SO many times and it is a decent hotel. Starting to get a bit old but still have everything that you need. Be mindful that the pool area is never in the sun!

Reception needy
It is a lovely hotel and the public areas have been recently refurbished. That is not the case with the bedrooms which are getting shabby with broken equipment.
Checkout was as poor as check in.

Fell short of 5 star expectations
We were a little disappointed with our overall experience at the SO/. To begin our trip the check-in experience took quite a while and at the end of it they told us our room was not available. Check in was at 3pm and we arrived at 3:30pm and we sat and waited close to 4pm to hear this news. We were a little frustrated as this was our last leg of our honeymoon and we only had two nights in Bangkok and we had just gotten off our flight and wanted to freshen up and rest before going out for the evening. Only after complaining to the staff did they try to remedy the situation by offering a 1000B hotel credit.
The room felt below a 5 star room. I would think at a 5 star hotel all the details would have been thought out, but only one of the night stands had an outlet and the other outlet was at the other side of the room by the window. The sink is too short and it splashes water all over the basin and the floor.
The amenities at the hotel are definitely 5 star. The pool has a great view, albeit there is construction right next to it as there is a building being built so not very relaxing. The hotel breakfast was our highlight as the spread was great.
In our hotel notes we wrote that it was our honeymoon and we couldn’t even tell that the note was even read as it felt like every other stay. At a 5 star I would expect them to care for those kinds of details as other stays we had in Thailand definitely caught those details.

Mixed review. Could not turn down AC even after technician. Freezing. Multiple elevators that returned to ground if staff entered card. Breakfast was ok. Light on fruit. But room was spectacular and rooftop bar was great even though drinks were weak.

Amazing stay in Bangkok
Fantastic City Hotel, Fantastic Service and staff, Location was absolutely perfect, right next to subway and walk to Shopping & Restaurants (Love Northeastern right next door). Breakfast was over the top and the views beyond.
I think overall it's fair to say the rooms are up for a renovation. Wear and Tear visible also on the pool level (still a 4 out of five)

A good hotel close to public transport. Taxi from airport took 30 minutes despite the traffic. Staff amazing as expected in Thailand. Restaurant reasonably priced. There's a great thai restaurant around corner called North East that is very cheap. Room was clean and bed comfortable but there was some disappointment there. It might have been my room only I but it felt like attention to detail was lacking. The power socket was loose on the wall. The toilet door did not close properly the paint work inside seemed a bit shoddy. These things do add up.
