This hotels is something else, we stayed in the residence are, seriously we had a huge suite for 4 of us, it was crazy, huge lounge, with a mental view, two absolutely massive bedrooms, with on suite. Could not fault this hotel at all, the service was too much, breakfast was amazing, sky train a 5 min walk, connected shopping complex, what more could you ask for. The business is quite business orientated, but it did not feel like it at all. Very laid back and relaxed hotel, could not fault one bit......... If your thinking of booking, plsease dont think, just book, and you will not be disappointed. Bangkok is fantastic.........

I stayed at Conrad for 3 nights on my first trip to Bangkok before moving on to Peninsula Bangkok for next 3 nights, both of which are legitimate 5 star hotels. You can see my review on Peninsula on Tripadvisor as well.

1. Room: I stayed at executive floor King room that included high speed internet access and breakfast at the lounge. The room is absolutely to die for. If I were given 436 sqf of space building my own sanctuary, it'll look just like this one. It is a true benchmark in hotel room design. See-thru bathroom has all the latest mothern amenities including invigorating rain shower. Perfect lighting. Pound for pound the best bathroom design considering its size. You can enjoy night views while taking shower. Tropical fruit basket and bottlted water always get refilled before you know it. Bed is somewhat firm, but that is the way I like it the most. Array of room amenities such as business desk, LCD TV, mini bar, closet and sofa are in perfect location for ease of use. What an efficient room design! The designer is Oscar worthy if there is such a thing.

2. Public areas: I did not use the pool but it looked very nice. Spa facility is world class as well. There is no outdoor hotel grounds other than the pool area. It has ambience of true luxury business hotel because of that whereas peninsula is more like a luxury boutique resort. Lobby is nothing fancy but more businesslike again. Backdoor to lobby is an entrance to a shpping mall. Direct access without leaving hotel.

3. Service and Staff: very friendly, great smiles all over, typical Thai hospitality. Limo service with new S-Class Mercedes available on the premises as well as regular taxi.

4. Breakfast buffet at the lounge has good selection. Peninsula tops the chart in this category though.

Budget-minded 5 star hotel seekers in Bangkok should look no further. Conrad is the one! For those who are not budget-minded, there is always Peninsula, Creme de la Creme. I looked into Oriental Hotel for a brief visit and I was not as impressed.

* Tips: 1. Take a city map and business cards (from Concierge) with you as most taxi drivers I met do not know exact location of Conrad. Show him the map and card instead of wasting time explaining in English.

2. If you plan to use internet and eat breakfast at the hotel, go for room upgrade to executive floor.

Had a wonderful Contrad Experience at Conrad Tokyo two years ago, and I looked for another Contrad this time in Bangkok, expectedly, it was an another fantastic Conrad experience. I stayed 32nd executive floor, comfortable bed, convinient bathroom and wonderful rainshower, everything was in the perfect order except I could smell heavy smoke in a non smoking room, they immediately provided air purifier, it got completely normal a day after. Breakfast at 29th floor was a great experience and the entire staff were "great" with a professional service. Hotel staff uniform stand out from other Hotels and they looked sharp and neat and spa facility was the state of the art, clean, quiet with a right temperature. Again the staff were the major memoriable experience, their natural smile and polite manner and willingness to accomadate my needs to ensure my comfort stay at conrad. I just love this place and their Mercedes Benz S550 New Limousine service also made my trip much more pleasant. See you Conrad again!

We stayed at the Bangkok Conrad to be near the Australian Embassy to arrange the paperwork for a legal wedding in Thailand, and it was in an ideal location (a tip for US travellers is that the US Embassy is near by as well). Our room was a corner room on a Club Floor which afforded us access to the Club Lounge. The room was beautifully laid out with a table & chairs by the window and a very large bathroom with a big bath also right next to the window. Great views from the lounge, bath or shower. There is also a large walk in robe and a well stocked mini bar. The hotel is a quiet little oasis to retreat to when the busy streets of Bangkok get a bit too much! The breakfast, afternoon tea and canapés served in the Club Lounge each day were consistently varied and of a very high standard. The staff are polished and friendly without being too friendly. We didn’t eat at any of the restaurants as the Club Lounge kept us well fed, however one night we did travel to Sirocco (which is not too far) to enjoy dinner and drinks in their open air restaurant – very memorable. And the shopping in Bangkok was also fantastic… however we were only there for 2 days which wasn’t long enough!
