We stay at the StR BKK at the end of every Asian vacation and it is a stellar property. General Platinum upgrades are to Metropolitan Suites, but the top floor suites are elegant and refined. The Butler service is outstanding and the spa gorgeous. The only downside is breakfast can be very busy as it is a corporate hotel. They also do not have a fleet of Bentleys as is brand standard.
