Sri Krungthep Hotel

Very pleasant front office staff greeted me warmly, spoke English very well, which I needed. Spacious room & bathroom, mine had a large table, large desk, 2 large benches - lots of surface area to spread my crap out on! Decent-sized mirrors, compact fridge kept the provided bottled water chilled. Some hooks on the wall for hanging clothes. Attentive housekeeping services. It's easy enough to find and is in a great area. Cafés, restaurants & convenience stores are on the doorstep and is nearby to Khaosan Rd entertainment area, MRT and canal ferry public transport. On-site café and massage. The eatery at the entrance does amazing Tom Yum Soup! And Sae Phun Michelin-rated restaurant is a short sprint away ..cos you don't walk there, you run! It's delicious!

The hotel exceeded my expectations. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly even during the late hours. The room was clean and spacious, even with the table to work at. The wifi worked great. The Air Conditioner worked well without any problems. The common shower and toilet were always clean. They also provided free water, shampoo, toilet paper, and soap (which I did not expected). The location: it is just a gem. You can walk everywhere interesting and important from that hotel. They also have a beautiful koi pond in the yard, and nice coffee shop, and massage saloons.

Upon check-in, we were late from our intended check-in time due to some issues in our flight but the staff waited. We don't even have cash at the time, the staff even told us that we can check in already and just pay in the morning, they'll just hold one of our passports. The rooms are spacious. Though the hotel is a bit old, it is clean and they made sure that the toiletries were provided without disturbing us. They just left it in the doors.

The location is excellent, it is easy to find and near to everything, including sights, MTR, walking distance to the Khaosan road area, or the Royal Palace etc. The area is very safe, the eateries and cafes in the nearby road are excellent (especially Thipsamai and it is practically next door, just a short walk along the canal)! The hotel itself was very quiet, surprisingly so given its location and not much noise from the corridor etc.

I like that the staff are accommodating and helpful to our needs. I read review about staff that they are rude so I was a little bit worried but in actual, it is not. They are helpful and alert. I can see they make an effort to communicate with us despite language barrier. They speak English so there was no problem. The room and the 3 bed was also big. The airconditioner and hot and cold shower is functioning properly. It was a good choice to opt for the hotel if you only require for basic accommodation for sleeping. It was also a good choice to opt for the hotel because it is in central area, accessible to convenience stores, atm, food resto, transportation areas, and historic places. I also appreciate that I can do laundry in the hotel for cheaper cost. I will definitely checked in the hotel when I get back to Bangkok.
