I think first it was planned as just a Mercure...later Grand Mercure and now even Fairmont....however the differences between luxury brands (for example Fairmont) and premium (for example Grand Mercure) are sometimes blurry

its just 100 meters from another Accor property, the Novotel Sukhumvit 20, which is actually not bad (with lounge, large swimming pool etc.)...as Fairmont is 2 level higher (from midscale to luxury) I expect it to be really great!
I really like the Novotel Soi 20. The price point has been good. The pool is nice, they lounge had fantastic staff pre-covid and the breakfast is always something to look forward to, although the pre-covid Platinum menu no longer exists.
