The Sheraton Grande Sukhumvit was the first hotel we stayed at on our honeymoon inThailand. I wasn't sure if booking a hotel, aimed at business travellers was a good thing. Any doubt was removed within 30 seconds of arriving.
This is a fantastic place to stay. It is spotlessly clean, quiet where it needs to be, and has great facilities. What makes this resort that extra bit special is the staff. They are wonderful. Friendly, professional, courteous and helpful beyond comparison.
We stayed in a Grand Deluxe room which was enormous (it even has a small walk in robes with built in, large, safe). We looked over the pool below and the park in distance, and the room was quiet.
Staying at a business oriented hotel as a leisure traveller is actually a smart thing to do. Business travellers have high standards and requirements. Good food, good entertainment, good gym and facilities are expected. The thing is of course is they aren't there to enjoy it. We made our way to breakfast at 9am and the restaurants were almost empty! We got to enjoy the sumptuous and unbelievable selection of food almost to ourselves. The same went for the pool (which is massive, beautiful, and exactly what you want after a day out and about in Bangkok), gym (a real gym), spa (truly amazing), etc..
The location is great. You walk out the entrance, along a raised walkway and within a minute you're at the sky rail station. A few stops later you're at MBK and the Siam shopping malls and there is plenty to do around this area. Plenty. You can switch here to the other skyrail line, ride it to the end, and catch a boat up the river to all the wonderful sites.
We couldn't fault the Sheraton. It has all the fundamentals right plus more and then tops it off with fantastic service.
