Some things that are important are a top notch breakfast buffet (enjoy asian options and good coffee), a decent pool, a larger room size so the little man has some space to move and good service.

I liked the look of the Sindhorn Kempinski (specifically the "grand premier room") the most and am leaning that way. Ideally like to keep it below $400 / night. Other contenders are the Waldorf Astoria, Park Hyatt or just retreating back to The Athenee where I can shell out for an Athenee Suite and have breakfast/lounge benefits within budget. Would love this threads thoughts!
I was going to say the Kempinski based on your criteria even before I saw your second paragraph. Kempinski manages to stay $400/night most times of the year but in peak periods the nearby Kimpton can be a perfectly serviceable alternative.
