Great location, great hotel and other Bangkok, Thailand Hotel/Accommodation Reviews

Our stay was great! We had a wonderful, easy check-in and a complimentary drink in the Balcony Bar before going up to our room.

The hotel is nicely appointed and set-out with great shopping in the hotel arcade. The staff are impeccable, in fact, I think they were about as good as you can get.

We stayed in a Club InterContinental room which entitled us to use the Club InterContinental Lounge. The lounge has a happy hour from 5.30 - 7.30pm when drinks are free. There is a light buffet available for free or for 500 baht if you are an upgrade customer.

The hotel is very well located in the centre of the shopping and commercial areas, the skytrain stops a block away from the hotel.

Highly recommended for reasonably priced, good quality accommodation.

Unique Qualities: The cleanest bathrooms I've seen in an Asian hotel. Not a speck of mould on the grout to be found - or smelled.

I would have to say once again, that the staff are unique. The feeling in this hotel is very good.

It also has a lowest internet rate guarantee.

We found this hotel to be an extremely pleasant surprise. We had booked a last minute trip to Bangkok with friends who couldn't afford to pay too much and they'd found a deal on Wotif.com for the Prince Palace Hotel. We could get a superior room for 1,550 baht per night.

We very happy about that until we got there to check in and were given a complimentary upgrade to a superior suite in the new wing, Tower B AND that included a free buffet breakfast. Now we were all thrilled, I just love getting an upgrade, it makes me feel so lucky.

Check in was a breeze with courteous, professional staff.

The suites were 8/10 on a cleanliness scale, very good for Asia! Just a little mould on the grout. The bed and pillows were comfortable.

We stayed here twice and were lucky enough to get the same deal both times. I see it's still available on Wotif, now being more than 2 months after our first stay.

Unique Qualities: I don't think there are any great views in Bangkok, but there were extensive views from both suites we stayed in.

We were, however very disappointed in the Picadilly Pub on the 11th floor. EXTREMELY POOR service and not a bottle of wine in the bar that wasn't off - REALLY OFF. Staff were unprofessional and disorganised, totally messing up our snack order, taking over 30 minutes to deliver it, let alone the drinks. Steve got up at one stage to ask what was happening to our drinks - about 20 minutes after we'd placed our order only to find the staff giggling and chatting. After asking for our bill, we waited for about another 20 minutes before we both got up to find the same scenario, the very friendly and sweet girl apologising. It wasn't enough to stop us being extremely annoyed though. There had only been another 3 people in the bar apart from us and they'd left early in our time there, so it's not as though they were busy.
