At Ayutthaya Hotel

Friendly staff and great service. Upon check in I was given an upgraded and updated suite at no extra charge! Beautiful garden area too. Plenty of free parking. The hotel was spotless. The restroom was clean and furniture was all updated. I will definitely stay here again. The only negative point is the location is not convenient without a car.

My wife and me stay there for few days for a sightseeing trip to Ayutthaya. The food is good and the staff is very friendly. However the hotel itself looks already little bit old. What we really liked is the cozy breakfast area. So overall for a short stay it’s ok...

The Thai wife and I stayed here for a night recently. I had booked the hotel earlier in the day via a third party website. Upon arrival the receptionist could not locate the booking. She spend time looking for it on something on her workstation, holding up my passport to the screen. Failing to find it she attempted to call someone else who had prepared the room keys but couldn't get hold of them. Next she started to hand me room keys with notes of other names attached to them. It was at this point I realized she was unable to read English, nor speak it very well. I won't criticize her on this point (I don't speak or read Thai despite being in the country a total of more than a year) but clearly my earlier booking played no further part in the stay. Luckily they had a room available and for the same rate. We confirmed verbally a double bed room but were for some reason assigned a twin. The hotel has three floors of room and encloses a large central atrium that is not air conditioned. Nevertheless it contains quite a few plants including trees and is reasonably pleasant. There are no elevators and it is eighteen steps between floors. Thankfully there was a staff member eager to help with the bags and we tipped him appropriately. The room was pretty basic but was clean and everything worked. There was a bit of a glitch in wifi/internet access but we soon sorted it out. There are many channels available on the television and surprisingly there were a few English language news type channels, no BBC or CNN but happy to see what was there. The bathroom is a single room containing a washbasin, shower and toilet. The shower is contained by a plastic curtain, there is no floor divider so unless you are careful you will get shower water all over the bathroom floor. Breakfast was included in the room rate and is served on the ground level of the atrium. It is pretty standard buffet one finds in low-middle end hotels catering in the main for Thai customers. I managed to find enough to my taste to be satisfied. The Thai wife even made me a drinkable coffee at her second attempt. Limited parking is provided onsite and to one side of the hotel. When we arrived there was a security guard in place but I didn't see any next morning.
