How is the executive lounge? Do they have a good spread for breakfast and evening canapes? Also, how is the area like surrounding the hotel? Is it close to any restaurant / shopping?
The hotel is located next to the Conrad on Wireless Road. I just spent 13 nights at the Conrad. There is a shopping center (Four Seasons Place...not really much there) attached to the Conrad. American Embassy compound across the street. It is about two blocks to Sukhumvit Road which is busy..but not really much to interest me.

I guess the location is person specific.
