Just stayed here 2 nights ago and after a dry spell of not being upgraded to any suites (and hence cutting back on my stays here), was upgraded to a Caroline Astor a few days before arrival.
It is my second time staying in the Caroline Astor (paid for it the first time), its an awesome room!

I stayed here earlier in March and was wow'd by the service, quality of rooms, basically everything.
Used an SNA to upgrade a Metropolitan Suite which was outstanding. I'm assuming enough has been said on these rooms but they are phenomenal. The staff were excellent, and the breakfast incredible (free for me and my guest as a PLT benefit). Even their little pens are beautiful lol.
The gym is perfectly fine as well, as is the pool area which has great showers and good cocktails.
I gave them 5 stars on TripAdvisor. ^
Last week, I stayed at Le Meridien Bangkok and had a wonderful experience there too - no SNA, but was upgraded to a suite that was beautiful (and had the hugest two-person shower I've ever seen!).
I would definitely stay at either property in Bangkok again.

It is all price dependent. The LM can often be had for nearly half the price of the SR. If I didn't feel guilty spending $250+ on a hotel in BKK, I would stay at the SR all the time.

Definitely agreed. In my case, LM was about 30% cheaper and I was on my own so didn't want to spend the premium that SR had.
