Great price / quality if you ask me.
Another one in the neighborhood but a bit further away from Asoke was Mermaid Bangkok. Corner suite with king bed was great with nice bathroom. Prefer PPS as it's nearby Asoke BTS.

Posts: 5S Sukhumvit Suites Hotel
The last time I visited Thailand (late 2016) I stayed at the S Sukhumvit Suites, and as I'm registered on ISG now in anticipation of my return trip its time for a report!
The S Sukhumvit Suites is a small, modern hotel immediately adjacent to the Asok BTS station, across the street from Terminal 21, and immediately south of Soi Cowboy. The location for someone interested in either spending most of their time at the Cowboy gogos or wanting quick access to a BTS station couldn't be better, the location really is phenomenal. When exiting the hotel you can take an immediate right into a stairway not five feet from the front door which will lead you up to the BTS station / a flyover to Terminal 21 so you don't have to wait in traffic or get wet in the rain. Alternatively you can continue to the right, just past the staircase, and reach the entrance to Soi Cowboy in another hundred feet. Finally for the traveler who wants easy access to high quality if pricey food (for Thailand), the top floor of Terminal 21 is a dream with literally dozens of choices for meals complemented with even more restaurants and some dessert / snack shops on the basement level.
The hotel itself was quite nice, if perhaps a bit pricey for what it offers depending on what deal you get. Pros first: The rooms are modern, the bathroom facility is nice if small, wi-fi is free and the included breakfast (get this!) cannot be praised enough. You'll find nothing to complain about in the rooms which come with a small closet, safe, a nice desk, a large stuffed chair and a desk chair, and a bed that will dominate most of the room. I honestly cannot recall if there was a TV as its been some months and I never use them, but I'm assuming there was. The only significant negative, and it is significant, is room size. For all of its modern polish these rooms are tiny, the basic studio I stayed in was no more than 25 square meters tops, perhaps closer to 20. I didn't find fault with it, but do keep this in mind.
Overall a strong recommend if you can get it for a reasonable price (2,000 THB or less), above that and I'd only recommend if it you want to spend most of your time at the cowboy and don't want to mess about with ST hotels or waste any time.

Hey Natty,
Thanks for the advise on Grand Hyatt.
I understand that Spasso is in Grand Hyatt and hence my interests in the hotel.
I have RTFF and my following questions are to get your opinion about BKK. I am only in BKK for three nights and I want to make the most of it. I usually stay at Sofitel at Sukhomvit and it is a hotel I like. I have stayed in Interncontiental and a few more hotels in BKK.
1. Is Mixx about the same type of scene as Spasso? I assume it it a bunch of reasonable to good looking FL?
2. Is Mixx located close to Spasso?
3. My plan is to do a Smooci girl in the afternoon after a few hours of sleep. I arrive early morning after a long flight. Hit Spasso in the evening (I arrive on a Sat) and hopefully score a lady with great looks (I hope both I and she will be interested in LT). Wake up on Sun and let the Spasso lady blow me before I head out for breakfast. Sunday. Hit a MP (not sure which one, I have been to Bamboo and Snow White and I liked both but I may try a different MP). Have one of my regulars come and see me in the evening. Be with her Sunday night and hang out with her on Monday and do her Monday night too. Anyway my question / s are two fold: what do you think of my plan and how would your plan look like for three nights?
Thanks!
/ Kirsia123.

Do a search on this thread.
There are lots of reviews. I always stay at Landmark and have reviewed it extensively. Go to Post 5668 on this thread to get started (5703,5713). Lots of other references to Landmark.

Posts: 3040The Grand Hyatt
I have never stayed at the Grand Hyatt BKK, but I do like to stay for short periods at other Ratchaprasong hotels like the Renaisance and Intercontinental. Why? So I can 1) be relatively close to Patpong (1 bts stop away), 2) can easily partake in my annual night or nights at Spasso and Mixx, and 3) use my annual free night vouchers with Marriott and Intercontintental. Now I am talking about spending 4 or 5 nights tops in this area out of the 5 or 6 weeks I usuually spend in BKK, so the change of scenary is good for me. I would not want to spend a higher percentage of my time in BKK in this neighborhood, however, because I think I would miss out on the good stuff happening on Sukhumvit Soi 4 to Soi 63 24/7 and frankly Ratchaprsong is kind of a boring neighborhood unless you are really into high end Malls or don't want to stay in the red light district.
For what it is worth, I really like the Grand Hyatt Jakarta. Its my favorite hotel in Jakarta. So I am sure the Grand Hyatt BKK is an excellent hotel. Be sure to visit Spasso and Mixx if you stay at the Grand Hyatt and remember the BTS works in both directions. Nana is just two stops East of Chit Lom station and Patpong is one stop south of Ratchadamri Station.
Food: EatThai, a very upscale and tasty foodcourt, is in the basement of the Cental Embassy Mall. And believe it or not, You & Mee Restaurant in the basement of the Grand Hyatt next to Spasso has some of the tastiest Khao Soi in the city.

Fellow mongers,
Is there anyone if you that would consider Grand Hyatt? Spasso is in the building if I am not missinformed? It would be sweet to head down to Spasso, pick up a girl and go back to the room.
I usually stay at Sofitel and it has a good location in between Nana and Cowboy.
Let me know what you think?
/ Kirsia.

Standard Rooms are 1700 THB (weekends 2000 THB) but may not be suitable for those who like to take girls LT because the beds are quite small.

Posts: 164Adelphi Suites Bangkok
Stayed here for a night, the hotel was splendid, at a perfect location and real VFM.
They offer free breakfast and 24 Hrs check-in. I checked-in around 11 pm and it was all smooth. The free breakfast is also great, you can prepare a free freshly cooked dish like Omelette or boiled egg for you.
Guests are always welcome and they call you before the guest comes and leaves, very secure. The location is pretty good but towards more closer to Nana Plaza. Many eatery options near by.
I'd consider staying there again, however I'd prefer booking in advance to get a cheaper price!
