The Royal President is a clean hotel in a good location. Overall it was a satisfactory experience minus the following few points:

1. The service was lacking when I arrived from the airport at 1am. I checked in and they gave me the room card but did not help me (or even offer to help me) with my luggage. They didn't tell me that I needed to put the card in the elevator to make it work. When I got to my room the lights were off and it took me 10 minutes and a phone call to the front desk to figure out how to operate all the lights.

2. The room had a door to a connecting room which obviously was no longer used as it didn't have door knob but I could hear the conversation and the TV from the next room as if they/it were right in my room.

The shower pressure was average but they didn't replace the soap until the 3rd day.

To end on a positive note, the breakfast buffet was great. Fresh fruit and good service.

The hotel is ideally located just minutes from the BTS.

Service overall is excellent and the staffs are always helpful with your queries and never ever lacking in their response to any questions , however trifle.

Room is also huge and value for money.

The only let down will be the linen/towels which seems a little worn.

This hotel was great. We stayed there 6 nights and then again another night before we returned home. Everyone was very nice. We loved the door man...very funny and sweet. The cafes food was great. We ate there everyday because it was so good. The people that work in the restaurant were very friendly. Also the included buffet breakfast was WONDERFUL...They had American, Asian and European styles. The pool was very clean and private. The gym was good too. My husband used it everyday.

The room was a nice size and clean. The shower had a little mold but not bad. The bed was very uncomfortable but we found out that most beds in Thailand are (they have very hard mattresses).

After staying there we decided to stay there on our last night too before we had to fly back. And they were very nice and upgraded us to a suite :) THANKS!

We will definitely stay here again when we return.

I stayed in the Court Wing which is across the soi and up an alley from the main building. The apartment was very spacious and the small restaurant meant having to wait for a table for breakfast on one occasion. Located just off Sukhumvit Rd, it is handy to the Skytrain and a short walk to a large department store (Robinsons), tailor shops etc, plus some of the racier establishments. The hotel seemed to have a liberal attitude toward allowing visitors in rooms. My accommodation package included two nights with a one way airport transfer and was quite good value.
