This was my first time at this hotel. It felt a bit old, but everywhere you looked, it exuded the local culture of Thai nobility. The entire hotel design was gilded, and the bellboys were dressed in traditional Thai attire.
**Facilities:** I chose a Premier King Room specifically because it had a bathtub. For under 1000 baht, a room with a bathtub is an absolute steal! You'd be hard-pressed to find a king room with a bathtub for under 1000 at a Marriott or IHG property.
Perhaps because it was after the May Day holiday, there weren't many people, so I had the pool all to myself. The swimming lane is about 50 meters long, and even though it's not a rooftop pool, the environment is fantastic, with a slight Babylonian feel. If I remember correctly, it's on the 7th floor, but you can call the front desk to confirm. It's open from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM. There was no strong chlorine smell, and someone was always monitoring the area, even greeting you proactively.
**Service:** Upon arrival, I was immediately offered a refreshing iced drink – sweet and sour, very thirst-quenching. Ctrip mentioned a late check-out service, and the front desk did confirm my departure time, but they emphasized that it was only possible if there weren't many guests, which felt a bit off-putting.
There's also a Burger King downstairs, making food delivery very convenient as they'll bring it to the lobby. The VoCo Hotel is right next door, and I'd consider staying there another time.
