  • The Narai is a good, no pretentions, 3* hotel in Bangkok that has a bit of charm. Its less than 45 min from airport, handy to BTR network (less than 10 mins to Chongnonsee Station) and a15-20 min walk to Tha Oriental Pier to catch the Express Ferry Service which gets the visitor to all the temple attractions of Bangkok very easily. Its in the middle of a major commercial centre of Bangkok ( and just up the road from Patpong).
    The main foyer is cavernous , with a restaurant on the mezzanine. The Narai serves up a good breakfast and dinner buffet( frequented by local business people). A large reception room on the ground floor is worth keeping an eye on ,local wedding receptions, high school formals.
    The rooms vary considerably between Superior and Deluxe. Pay the extra.Regardlees, the rooms are clean,tidy and well maintained.The housekeeping staff deserve a lot of credit for providing friendly efficient service that is missing from hotels I've a lot more money for.
    The narai is used by European tour groups, seeing a bit of bangkok before going home. The pool is best avoided( its not up to much anyway)
