Excellent,I will stay this hotel again
by Joyyi from China,Shanghai
Feb 16, 2012
这是一个性价比超级高的酒店,首先位置很好,地铁出来走10分钟就到了(原本打算叫出租的),出门往前走一点就是著名的水门市场,非常热闹,大概走10分钟左右可以到达centre world和四面佛。购物、吃美食两不误。酒店早餐相对他的规模还是算丰盛的,中西餐都有,房间非常干净整洁,我们一共定了三间,每个房间都有不同的色彩。要说缺点的话就是楼下有点吵,但是估计我们太累了,躺下就直接睡着了,哈哈!下次再去曼谷我还是会选择这家酒店。

The service staff were very very friendly and helpful. It may be alittle difficult to give taxi drivers directions to the hotel, but for people wanting to just go to Platinum Mall, Budacco is perfect. Breakfast selection is limited but very yummy! Will definitely stay here again next time I'm back in Bangkok.

Cosy and comfortable stay.

like the concept of the hotel, cosy and nice theme. the staff were to polite and helpful, speaking fluent English and giving excellent customer service to every guest. the only thing feedback is we were staying at the highest floor, 8th floor there wasn't lift on that floor, having difficulty to carry heavy lugguge up and down from/to 7th floor. To people who like to shop around pratunam or platinum mall area, i will highly recommend them to stay there..

Good location and service
by YY from Singapore
Jul 15, 2011
Likes - Very happy with the service by the staff, I didnt use to tip but their service was so sincere that I'll feel bad if I didnt tip!
Location was good as we were right in the middle of the Pratunum wholesale district. Pretty easy to hail for taxis and tuk tuks.
Dislikes - The hotel might be hard to spot for taxi drivers. A little secluded if you come back late at night, didnt meet with any bad experiences but its better to keep your eyes wide open.

Good location
by Jason N from Singapore
Feb 8, 2011
The place was really difficult to find on the day I checked in. I see the signboard using Google map on my Iphone but I couldn't find the entrance. The place was chaotic with roadside stalls at that time around 5 to 6pm. I only managed to find the entrance when I called up the hotel for directions. The taxi drivers do not know this hotel and therefore you need to use Baiyoke sky as an anchor point for alight and walk your way in.

Good enough hotel
by Louis Chin from Singapore
Feb 1, 2011
Budacco hotel is a pretty okay hotel, the staff were very friendly which i personally felt at home with however, its the environment surrounding it that's turn off.
The alley leading to budacco's main door is littered with cockroaches at night, and there's always strangers hanging around the alley late at night which made it exceptionally dangerous for ladies.

Very convenient, Near all wholesales center and quite near Central world. No need to take cabs to these places. Can save up alot of $$$. The staff there are very helpful and friendly. You won't regret staying there. The only thing i think they can improve is the breakfast abit boring no much choices.

by Susan Wai from Malaysia
Dec 2, 2010
It was my 2nd time to visit Bangkok & i choose Budacco since it was just opened a year ago. At first we have difficulties finding this place but after we found it, i can say it was a good & convinient hotel to stay. We extended our stay at this hotel as it is very convinient & confortable to be there. Very near to Rajparop Station(abt 5mins walk) & Pratunam market(3mins walk). The hotel staff & manager was very helpful & polite..we like their service very much. Breakfast wise is ok & the room was big too. I will definitely recommend this hotel to my friends when they visit Bangkok. (2 thumbs up)

Likes- new, clean, Staff was very courteous and helpful. (5 thumbs up!) Rate was very affordable too. Airconditioning was very cold, meant that it worked well!
Dislikes- breakfast menu could have a little more variety. small elevator, Bathroom walls were in frosted glass (makes you a bit conscious when taking a bath). the place is a bit hard to find for beginners but its really near the markets

Difficult to find but good service
by Yeung Mui Mui from Hong Kong
Nov 3, 2010
have printed 2 maps but still wasted about 1 hr to find where it located as we were not coming from the airport. We know it's somewhere near the central world and big C....it's in a small street and the surrounding was not good actually. But the hotel is quite new and the hotel staff is helpful. the room is as new as the photo shown. if you like to shop in central world and isetan and you like to eat the chicken rice, it's okay....by the way, there are a lot of massage shop nearby......

by Cathleen from Phillippines
Jun 14, 2010
At first, Budacco was quite difficult to find given the location (within small streets behind Pratunam), but it's actually a good location - easy to find taxis, walking distance from shopping centers. The hotel itself was as good as we hoped - Very nice aesthetics, rooms are comfortable and big, dining area's nice as well. We especially love the service - everyone was so pleasant and helpful! The only thing i disliked was that we had the exact same American breakfast (ham, sausages and egg) everyday. Other than that, everything was great. highly recommended!

by Puskas, Ilka from Germany
Apr 12, 2010
the budacco is in a busy quater in bangkok in walking distance to shopping centers. its quite a walk from the next skytrain. the rooms were simple, but nice, but didnt had daylight. for my taste a roofgarden or another meetingpoint is missing, though the lobby is quite nice. the stuff was very helpfull too.

Urban Living
by KINGSBURY Ray from Ontario, Canada
Mar 12, 2010
Loved our stay at Budacco. Modern and funky design with amazing staff that always wanted your stay to be the best. We stayed in the deluxe room which we thought was perfect for the two of us and the sink in the main room was great! We could have upgraded from a deluxe room to the oriental room for pennies more once we were there - we did check out the room but decided not to upgrade because we were leaving soon. Busy market place outside the hotel and around the corner from the Baiyoke Sky Hotel (we used it as a landmark to find our way back to the hotel). We were about a 15-20 minute walk to the skytain (BTS) which was our favorite way to travel on our own - new section only minutes away isn't open yet.

valued for money
by Calvin from Singapore
Mar 12, 2010
this newly opened hotel (late 2009) is a great place to stay in. the location is certainly good as it lies in between the busy sois of pratunam. no worries for food and transport (busy street filled with food vendors, tuks-tuks, taxis..) also to mention her cable tv services is superb. there are 80 channels for guests to choose from!
perhaps because the hotel is new, so her cafe isn't quite ready for full operation. it's not open for lunch and dinner yet, thus there's no room order service for food at any time. the breakfast is ok for the first day, but any long staying customers will find the breakfast just keep repeating itself. no other varieties are available. hope the hotel can soon work that out.
besides the breakfast, everything is just fine. i will come back to stay in this hotel again, for sure.
p.s. the hotel is a little bit hard to find the 1st time. if you stay in hotels before like baiyoke sky, citin pratunam or indra regent hotel, Budacco is very near to all these hotels (within walking distance). for first timers to bangkok who like to try out this new hotel, just print the map and pass it to the taxi driver. when you arrive on the street which connect phetburi soi 11, 13, 15 on the given map, you can drop off from the taxi and look out for shop number 122/44. once you are there, everything is fine. (for female guests, the hotel hasn't installed hair dryers at the moment. you may want to bring along your own compact hair dryer if you need one)

Hidden gem of Pratunam
by Ngeow Kian Moon from Malaysia
Mar 12, 2010
The hotel is really excellent value for money. The taxi driver fetching us from airport had a hard time looking for the hotel, and being situated among some of the narrow lanes in the area, it took a long time once you make a wrong turn. But once you check in to your room, all the hassle is worthwhile. The room is clean, probably due to the hotel being quite new. I'm most impressed with the free WiFi Internet available 24 x 7 for the guest. The breakfast can be further improved as choices are very limited. I've stayed for 2 nights and I've only ate the complimentary breakfast once, so go figure. Overall, it's real value for money. Defintely will stay here again and hopefully breakfast will be improved, hotel will be mroe well known to taxi drivers and tuk-tuks, with whatever that is excellent now to remain.

Feb 16, 2010
My wife and I stayed for 4 Nights in Feb and we would say the Hotel is great. Great location and clean room. It looks very very new as it open not even half years only. We love the Room Paint as it was sweet enough for couple. Location is good as it's near to Platinum Mall and all the nearby Shopping area. The only thing I would dislike is, Cab can't drop you off to the Lobby and mostly the cab driver won't know the exact location. If you stay in this Hotel, just tell the Cab to drop you at Baiyoke Sky Hotel. You can see Budacco Hotel Signage from Baiyoke Sky Hotel's Lobby. Pricing wise is affordable for the size of the hotel. Room kinda small but sufficient for 2 person. Staffs friendliness are superb. Felt very much like staying in my own house. Feel very comfortable and alwasy being "Welcomed". Another thing we dislike is Breakfast. Weekday is ala-carte and weekend is Buffet type but limited to few choice only. Apart from this, we do like this Hotel a lot. Will definitely be back if going again with my Wife.

i just checked out from this hotel on 27/12/2009 and can't wait to write about Budacco -
- Perfect location for shopping for clothes, local street food, good massage, etc - just a few step a way from the hotel. Walking from Hotel to Platinum. slightly long walk to the nearest Sky train station.
- in case you need to tell the taxi driver the location of the hotel, just mention Indra Square, Pratunam. It cost 35 baht from Central World to the hotel.
- The staffs are very friendly and helpful. If you need any kind of assistance, please feel free to ask them and they will do their best to help. They prepared early breakfast (6am) for us because we told them our day-tour van is picking us up at 6:30am
- room is well equipped, even come with a big safe box - big enough to put my laptop in it.
