A far cry from even the Conrad, which wasn't that great but was a step up from the Millennium.
Let's kill this baloney before it gets out of hand. As much as I like MH in terms of value for the money, the entry level room at WA is worth more than the panoramic suite at Millenium Hilton.
As Diamond you can book the basic room at MH for 3k THB and upgrade to panoramic suite as Diamond for 1k extra, total a bit more than 4k. You will never get the basic room at WA for anywhere near that price point even if you score a BRG, and for good reason.
WA is in a completely different league than MH and the two properties should not be compared in my opinion.
