We had read all the reviews about the hotel and expected the worse but it was really quite OK. The room was a bit old, especially the bathroom, but are you planning on living in your room for more than sleeping? We are out the door the minute we get up and back in the evening so that doesn't bother... more

Stayed here for one night as part of a tour which was more than enough. The rooms were dated and shabby! Showers leaked all over the place and the beds were uncomfortable! The location was ok, not too far from the some of the tourist attractions and the breakfast was was good. There are far better places to stay in... more

Stayed here as part of a trip, so assuming it was pretty cheap. The place is geared up for tour groups. Reception area has been refurbished and the roof top bar/restaurant/pool is a pleasant addition but the rooms are circa 1970s. Dingy corridors, yellow stained walls, army-esque blankets and a mouldy bathroom with a shower head seriously in need of... more

We stayed at this hotel on two separate occasions as part of a tour group. This is a big hotel but reception staff were friendly and breakfast was the standard buffet type with a good selection of food. The first night, we had a standard room with one double bed and one single. The bathroom was in desperate need of... more

Stayed here as part of a tour. Furniture and decor would benefit by being updated. Hotel smelt a little musty. Reasonable range of breakfast choices. Not the best location as not near skyrail and fair walk to Grand Palace, Wat Po etc. more

We stayed in over 10 hotels on our trip to Thailand and the Grande Ville hotel was by far the worst hotel we stayed in. The people were slow to attend to us (15 mins wait). They demanded 1000 THB deposit before they would give us our hotel key in case we ran off with the furniture!!. We felt like... more

This hotel has some good points and some bad. Good- air con rooms, quite good size and really nice sky bar with excellent views out over city. Bad- rooms are so badly lit, still dark even with every light on! The hotel generally smells of stale cigarette smoke and the breakfast buffet is very average. I think you could get... more

I just came back from the hotel after a 3D/2N stay (Sept 07) in Bangkok. To start it off, everything else that you've read about the hotel is true. The traffic jams (bearable if you're used to traffic congestions, and partly due to traffic lights), the far-away-from-places (after dark, Mahachai Road is dead, but there's ALWAYS taxis and tuk-tuks waiting... more

The hotel doesn't have good security systems. Their surveillance camera doesn't cover all the hallways of each room & plus it's dark. I got my DVD video cam and digicam, ipod and traveller cheque stolen from my room while i was away with family member in hospital. The manager is not customer oriented -- tells me that their surveillance video... more
