That's about the same price as SGS. From your pix, Kalboz, Looks to me like SGS is worlds better. That said, your pix show a breakfast which completely blows away any 4P around here.

Call SPG customer service and you can buy an electronic one for 1000 Starpoints and use it immediately while making the booking with the same agent or have it wait in your account.

How much does the breakfast buffet cost? I currently have 3 nights reserved under the 4 Feel Good Reasons rate of 2500 Baht, which includes breakfast for two (there will be two of us). The 1900 Baht rate is available for the same nights, so I might change to that rate plan depending on the price of the buffet. Can someone who is there now please check the buffet price for me? Thanks.
They charge 650.00 per person for the buffet. |
Just did a one night stay in room 520, 2 more to go. My overall impression:
There is still construction going on, I wouldn't stay here if you are noise sensitive in the mornings, the sound of concrete drilling radiates through the building. I stay up late, so sleep during the day is essential. Hopefully this will not longer be an issue when its your turn here. The Gym has nicely equipped. They've got two of each kind of bikes: (x-train, treadmill, bikes). 5 to 50lbs dumbbells and a corner cable machine. It does look under construction in there. Also, things are still a bit dusty as expected with construction going on around the building. I've been tracking foot prints all over the building. My room was nice, though they forgot my shampoo. All I had were bars of soap. Not a big deal. Couldn't figure out how to play my ipod on the TV, and as SPG Gold, I got cupcakes! I also got a nice hand written welcome note. :) Not bad... ^ |
Free Night
Thinking about using 3500 for a free night here. Any thoughts on that action?
Will they charge me tax and vat on a free night? |
Welcome to FT, swampfox1001!
I've never been charged tax on an award night. The rates at this hotel are so low right now, I don't think it's worth using points. Though I am wondering how you're getting a 3500 point rate - it should be 4000. |

April prices upto to 3700B ++ room only. No cash and points available. Getting too close to WGS pricing levels now.

This price is way too high for 4P hotel, especially Thai Baht is worth more to US dollar right now.

Also, it's just much harder for me to book a 4P for THB 3,700.00 when the memories of booking SGS for THB 3,200.00 is still so vivid in my memory....

Anyone know the best way to get to the hotel using public transport from BKK? Airport Train? What stop, etc? I know the hotel website lists stops for various options, but I can't tell which is the most efficient one.
