Grand Mandarin Residence

Its the really musty smell that killed it for me. The entire buidling. Like a senior center or worse. If your from a large city the old brick tenaments smell that grandmas lived in. The advertisements on here described it as close to airport..(Suvarnbhumi) It is not!! It is not 17 km away. Even taxi driver shook his head when we told him that. Taxi ride slow during traffic hours returning at night is fine. About 30 mins. I have been in and out of asia 25 years, This seems to be a hotel catering to the Thai night crowd. The "love bar" downstairs and lots of safe sex items on display in room. ( which I guess is a good thing) Old style locks on doors. Lots of noise in halls from local partiers. Im gonna say no on this one for a future stay. The town right next to the airport about 7 km has places in same price range. I didnt do my homework with location on this one. Not gonna save much when you include taxi fare. AC kept going in and out on cooling. Very limiting plugs in room nothing close to bed for your phone.

Very nice hotel, room a bit small with a view on the city, bed are comfortable. All is clean and well maintained. Staff is helpful and friendly. Breakfast has very large choice. Fitness and pool available.

They are nice people. Made us feel comfortable. We had communication gap so we faced minor problems in ordering room service. But room and bathroom are nice. Especially the bathroom has hand shower which is rare to come by in Thailand and which is a must have for people like me who are from Bangladesh or that area. Over all it has it's pro's and con's but is a good place to stay with a bouncy bed.
