Marriott Lounges with Best Food In Thailand
Out of all the Marriott hotels I go to in Thailand, here is how I rank the food at the lounges:
1. Westin Grande Sukhumvit. Unfortunately, the ambiance is not the best.
2. Marriott Marquis Queens Park. I look forward to the re-opening of the lounge in the other building, next month. There will be 1 lounge per tower.
3. The Athenee. As a Luxury Collection hotel, my opinion is that it should be at the top of the list. The ambiance used to be the best with that English club feeling, but it is no longer that special.
4. Marriott The Surawongse.
5. Le Meridien Suvarnabhumi. Not an actual lounge, but the bar where they have the Creative Hour resembles enough to a lounge.
6. Royal Orchid Sheraton.
7. Le Meridien Chiang Mai, a distant 7th. It used to be much better.

The Sheraton Royal Orchid has good drink options but food is OK (mid-range for Asia lounges). Mind you my last stay there was about 5 years ago.

I would rate the ROS much more highly than the PA in respect of food in the lounge; not even close. The ROS offers several hot dishes, a chef for one dish, a range of cold items ( sushi, dips, appetisers), decent cheese, a wide range of cakes/deserts. While I like the PA, lounge food is not their strong suit...it’s dull and very ordinary.
Westin: food is better now they have the extra space. But I don’t linger for more than 15 minutes. It still feels squeezy.
Marquis is good but it’s more like a cafeteria than a lounge ( quantity/range but not special, IMO)

thanks.
thanks.
Champagne was already too expensive to be offered in the lounges, before the 2017 import tax increase.
