Award inventory has very recently been downgraded to undesirable 'king accessible rooms' only

Their revenue manager obviously has a nickel-and-diming background, not a good sign at a new upscale property needing to build market share.

This property has the same GM as Double Tree Sukhumvit.... I thought that property is pretty good to Gold and Diamond members?

The pool appears to be rather disappointing. Bangkok should be the last place on earth one would need blow up dolls !

Hilton Sukhumvit Bangkok

All I want to know is if I book a Executive Room, as a Gold member, will I be upgraded to a suite?

If you can wait 2 weeks, I will be able to tell you. But though suite upgrades usually are not a gold member benefit, you should better just expect an upgrade to an Executive Plus room

Please check for me if I book the most basic room, will I get upgraded to Executive Floor as a HH Gold Member.


I read from another thread that if one books a room at Double Tree Sukhumvit, they will get lounge access at this property if they are HH Gold members.

Where did you see this? I haven't been able to find it. I changed my award booking from the DT to this hotel specifically because it has a lounge. I might switch back to the DT for fewer points if I could go over to the Hilton's lounge.

In several recent searches I haven't seen any C&P availability at the DT whereas a few months ago it was wide open.
