Lounge breakfast at MMQP is worlds better than lounge breakfast at Marriott Surawongse, not even mentioning that we can have "breakfast" at 2pm with the light lunch offered in MMQP's lounge in the afternoon when we wake up too late. There are certain things I do not like about MMQP for example weak soundproofing in the standard rooms but let's give credit where it is due: breakfast in the lounge at MMQP is not a weak point like it is at Marriott Surawongse.

So I stand by what I wrote: I have seen lots of elite breakfast benefits from four hotel chains in Bangkok and Marriott Surawongse ranks dead last, below even some lesser brands. I have not seen Soi57, Aloft, or 4P and perhaps they are worse, but even in that case we can safely say Marriott Surawongse is in the bottom quartile.

If you are having breakfast in the restaurant at Surawongse because of a special rate then I think we are simply talking about different things - I am not in position to disagree with you since I have not seen breakfast in the restaurant. What special rate are you referring to with 3x points and breakfast? Is it widely available? If Marriott Surawongse offered restaurant breakfast instead of points as the Platinum benefit I think they would fix a weakness very easily.

I did not intend to make it a bigger issue than it really is, bottom line it's breakfast and it has different value to different people, heck some people don't even eat breakfast. My purpose was to objectively bring up the subject and let each decide if this is something they care about or not. This hotel has clear strengths and weaknesses in my opinion and my review would not be complete if I swept something under the rug.
