Overall a good experience, not without it's issues though. Firstly, our transfer from BKK airport to the hotel didn't show up, apparently because the member of staff left the company before booking. They did rectify this and refund our transfer booking. Secondly, there was some dirt or potentially human waste on the bidet hose, which clearly wasn't cleaned properly before we checked in. This was sorted after we raised it with the front desk. Other than these issues it was a pleasant stay.

The staff went above and beyond to help guest. Great breakfast, including western and eastern options. I loved the king room setup. My only complaint is the shower mat had mold on it and needed to be cleaned.

My stay was excellent and service is very good. The rooms feel luxury and Hugh quality although they are a bit small but for the price it's completely worth it. They also have a lounge area with free snacks and nibbles which was beyond simply basic nibbles rather delicious and extravagant. Location is really good too, managed to walk to quite a few places and avoid the Bangkok traffic.

This hotel is very close to Siam Paragon and MBK. It has some options for food if you walk around. The BTS is also very close (a con if you need complete silence to sleep). The room was very clean with only a few things looking out of place ( the air vents were hanging out of place a bit). The bed was comfortable. It is a firm but included a mattress topper. The bed is a bit high for those who might have mobility issues. The only thing was that the tub and the shower curtain were a bit dirty. They also will not let you check in until 2pm which was rough after traveling for 24 hours. They did take our bags. We opted to have breakfast at the hotel and then headed to the mall.

The property itself is great. Modern lobby and modern rooms. I stayed in an Akara Deluxe suite which had a large king size bed, bath and separate toilet room. The bed was comfortable. The shower had excellent pressure. The TV was very difficult to get working and logged into any streaming services. Minibar was well stocked and reasonably priced. The pool and pool area were good and clean. The barracuda rooftop bar was very nice and again well priced. Buffet breakfast had good choice. Some issues that were poor were that the bed linen and towels definitely were not changed everyday despite the room being asked to be made up. Staff appeared more preoccupied with their mobile phones than opening doors for guests. You were able to smoke drugs on the rooftop bar also which was not ideal. Staff members also had a very poor grasp of English as when asked if we could book afternoon tea 4 times (also showing a photo of the afternoon tea) we would not get through to them. The hotel is 5 star rated however, I would not agree it is. Other than the above issues, it was a comfortable stay however, I would try somewhere else in Bangkok if I were returning.
