Excellent location





by Mrs Lisa Hoey from United Kingdom






Mar 20, 2011




Didn't like the extortionate prices in the coffee bar and due to this didn't even bother checking out the prices in the restaurants as there were a few good eating places just down the road either on the street or in a local cafe. Didn't like the tacky 'Elvis' show that was playing in the bar/restaurant area opposite the reception area. This meant that you couldn't sit in the lobby area to relax. Really like the fact that the sky train was right on your doorstep. Also the large Siam shopping centre was just down the road and a river taxi and Jim Thompson's house were just round the corner.

Old but good location





by Wong Lai Kuan from Singapore






Aug 10, 2009




Rooms and furniture are old and needs refurbishment. We were in a non-smoking floor but the smell of smoking was strong. Bathroom walls looked very dirty and no tissue packs were available. It is the location that attracted us as it is near the BTS.

The hotel was in a good location but that was about it. Very busy not only with hotel guests but with people coming to the Cabaret show. Room was okay but expected more from a deluxe room.

Great location with shopping places nearby





by Shirley from Singapore






Apr 28, 2008




The hotel walkways are not well-lit but rooms are big and clean! Best of all is the hotel´s proximity to the BTS station and shopping places such as MBK and Platinum. The staff are helpful as well =)


7.6



Good Hotel





by Darrin Morgan from London, United Kingdom






Mar 20, 2008




The hotel was fine, and the cabaret was excellent, but the food was hardly inspiring. All that could be said of the main restaurant downstairs was that there was a lot of food - none of which was really good. As someone who loves to eat well in fine dining restaurants, I was very disappointed. But overall, I would come back to stay in the hotel - and eat somewhere else!

Very old hotel, but near to Siam shopping complex





by Leitner, Thiemo from Germany






Feb 28, 2008




the only good thing at first:
if you are into shopping, this hotel is very near to the Siam shopping complex, with Siam center, Siam paragon and the MBK which you shouldn´t miss. The footwalk will take 10 min. The connection with the skytrain BTS couldn´t be better as you just fall from the hotel to the station.
what I dislike was the very old room, which was called "deluxe-room". If you expect a "deluxe-room" you should reduce the expectation to the 1970- definition of deluxe.
The room was normal in size, the wall-papers were old and dirty, the furnitures are old too. The average sized TV started with a just green coloured screen and need 15 min. to come to normal colours.
At least the bed-sheets and towels were fresh and clean, the room was clean too.
Don´t go to the gym-area which is disappointing.
You have to follow a long corridor with old wallpapers and carpets (who wonders?) and you will find one bigger room with exercising machines which are same old like the building.
Also the massage room and sauna, which is near the gym is not really invitating you. Better go to one of the massage rooms outside the hotel, just go left if you go out the main entrance, cross the street and you will find some business there, a traditional thai massage will be around 250 baht, about 5 Euro per hour.
In my opinion the hotel really needs some renovation.
The price for the old rooms is to high.
You will find better and newer hotels, also with a good location and with at least the same price.

Good Location





by Laak Tzyy Herng from Singapore






Sep 25, 2007




It´s very convenient because it´s link to the Skytrain on the 2nd floor. When we asked for taxi to the airport at the Taxi Service Counter in the hotel, the staff told us it was 900 Baht. We rejected because it was outrageously expensive. When we walked out from the exit, the driver who worked for the hotel approached us and gave us a discounted rate to the airport at 700 Baht. We rejected this offer too. We decided to walk forward to the main road and got a taxi by ourselves. The whole taxi fare including toll fees was only around 285 Baht. Next time, the hotel staff should get a taxi for us that follows the meter and not charging tourist an unreasonable price.

by Selma Steinberg/Suely Atzaba from Israel






Mar 24, 2007




I liked the hotel, the staff is not great and I didn´t like to wait at the reception desk lines too long and the staff can´t speak english so well hard to understand what we want, I expected to have better qualified staff.

Excellent Location

it´s very convenient to travel around from hotel to most of the shopping areas. With the BTS just right in front of the hotel, travelling to other places is so much easier. Good massage parlours can be found just next to the hotel. Great place indeed.

Location of this hotel is pretty convenient and have good acessibility to well known tourist location through BTS / MRT . The selling point of this hotel is location . The breakfast provided is so so only and should improve it. I have stayed 4 nights and the breakfast served is similar .

Dec 26, 2006




We have booked a Delux room and I must say it was better than expected. The room was spacious and clean. The only thing I do not like is I am usually greeted with an unfriendly face during the collection of room key. We have to drop our metal room keys when we leave the hotel.

Excellent location, the 2nd floor is linked to the BTS station, which leads you to many places. Morning breakfast is okay. The bath tub in our room was dirty, there was this yellow thing stained on it. Overall, it was alright.

Crowded





by Mrs. Heda Bar-Ratson & Mr. Daniel Minikes from Ramat Hasharon, Israel






Dec 6, 2006




Nice hotel, good location (next door to Jim Thompson House and Sky Train), very crowded lobby specialy when the cabaret "Calipso" starts, over crowded breakfast resturants, comfortable rooms but wall paper is pealing off (room 819), excellent bell captains.
Warning !!!
Do not use the minibar, telephone and specialy not the Taxi service the hotel offer since prices are very high and exagurated.

Convenient Location, Value for money





by Josh from Singapore






Nov 20, 2006




This place is the best if your would travel by BTS (best way to travel around to avoid the busy traffics), it is directly link to asia hotel which is the most plus point. Rooms are average but acceptable, hotel should be refurbished abit. Surroundings would have Foot Massage center and near 7 eleven. This is an busy hotel probably because of its loaction and price. They should change its keys as it is very big and heavy, having the hassle of placing it at the hotel before leaving as it would not be convinient to carry around. I would stay there again if I am at Bangkok again. Value for money


7.2



Good location but the rooms can do a little touch up





by Heng from Singapore






Nov 19, 2006




I have been travelling to Bangkok rather often for work and I found Asia Hotel well located. I can reach many places easily with the BTS Skytrain just a stone throw away from the hotel. Unfortunately, the hotel is rather old and the darkly lit corridors leading to the rooms gave a very eerie feeling. I think it is about time for the hotel to do a complete makeover. Nevertheless, Asia Hotel would still be a good place to stay for its value and good location.

Great location but not-so-flash rooms





by Natalie from Singapore/Australia






Nov 19, 2006




The rooms were very dated & the bed was as hard as a brick! The air-con was absolutely freezing, I had to turn it off during the night, but then woke up all sweaty & had to turn it back on again. Breakfast was very nice, there was so much to choose from & all of the western foods were delicious. The hotel is in a very convenient spot, & for what I paid it was pretty good. I´d recommend it for anyone that just wants a room to base themselves from while they sightsee, but not for anyone wanting to enjoy the ambience of their hotel!

I always make a point of staying at the Asia Hotel when i am in Bangkok. I find the hotel good value for money and the service is excellent. The only downside is that it is a little way out for some tourist attractions but that would never stop me booking the Asia for future trips.

Excellent Value hotel with direct access to BTS





by Nicola Davenport from Near Manchester






Aug 7, 2006




I liked the facilities in the hotel and the spaciousness. It has everything you need and is very convenient. The only problem is - there is a local bylaw apparantly - and you are not allowed to use an iron in your room - a bit tricky if things get creased in your case. I had to have the items I needed, washed, dried and ironed - just to really get them ironed - tip -take your own iron. This is my second time at the hotel and on both occasions it has been great.

Good location for getting around Bangkok





by Victoria Tring from UK

The hotel was good value for money however beware of paying the hotel for taxi service to the airport.... very expensive. Much cheaper to get a taxi off the street from right outside the hotel. Always negociate price with driver first though!!!!

The staff was in every meaning most helpful and serviceminded , big plus.
The Breakfastlounge felt dark and not " how you want to get your day started - in lack of windows and with dark wooden walls to look at,also the tables with the dishes for breakfast felt a bit disorganised due to lack of space. Overall it felt a bit oldfashioned but ok.

Great location for first time visitor





by Nathan Atkins from B´ham

This hotel was a great place to stay for me - being a first-time visitor to Bangkok. The rooms were comfortable, the breakfasts good, and the proximity to the sky train amazingly convenient. The pool size was a little disappointing

Cheap and Reasonable





by Bernard from Singapore






Feb 14, 2006




Spick and span rooms. However, no tea or coffee making facilities. No room service menu. Staff quite competent, if somewhat harried especially when there are scores of rude Singaporeans or impatient farangs raising a big hooha about how come everyone else is served first except them.
Room rates are a steal and I go back to this hotel often.

This place is simply fantastic and fully packed with Asian tourist. With a subway right at the door step of the hotel that brings you to tourist attraction, nice room, entertainment and food. What else can you ask for?

Excellent location but overly priced





by Sudarshana from india






Nov 3, 2005




We were there for two nights from october 12th to 14th 2005. the hotel is very well located on the sky train route . Ours was a deluxe room, clean but the hotel being a very big one is heavly crowded and almost feels like you are in the airport or in a railway station. the service hence is not personalised. you need to shout at the top of your voice to be heard. the bell captain was the only helpful one among the staff. Most of the staff do not understand English and thats one major problem. We were suppose to get a welcome drink and a basket of fruits on arrival in our room,that never came. Water is very a precious commodity in the hotel and do serve drinking water even while serving food. Never heard of that before!!!
