“Best place to stay in Bangkok”

Majestic Grande Hotel

5 of 5 stars

18/18 found this review helpful

We are just back from a wonderful week in Thailand. After much searching we came across the Majestic Grande (---) website. In all honesty it was the website that sold the hotel to us. It was so beautifully presented we knew the hotel must be of a high standard. A little more surfing and we managed to find a great price so went ahead and booked.
Our flight arrived early so we were at the hotel 3 hours before check in time. No problem, the Front Desk staff greeted us with a welcome juice and within 20 minutes our room was ready. We were thrilled to be given an upgrade to an executive room on the 23rd floor. The room was lovely and well furnished. Spotlessly clean and I can honestly say the most comfortable bed I have EVER slept on. Tea and coffee supplies were replenished on a daily basis as was the complimentary bottled water.
The bathroom was a granite delight with luxurious toiletries, fluffy towels and even a hairdrier for whoever needs.
Each morning we had breakfast at the hotel. The food was superb, choice more than enough to cater to all tastes and service was first class. We sat outside by the pool to eat but there are plent of tables inside too.
The spa is wonderful and a massage is a must during your stay. Prices are very reasonable compared to other hotels so make the most of whats on offer.
Our week flew by and we were sad to leave. The Majestic Grande has a four star rating on most websites but definately deserves 5 stars for service, quality, facilities and price. We will definately stay there again and will be telling all of our friends and family about the best place to stay in Bangkok.
A few notes about Bangkok:
Only use metered taxis and insist the meter is started when you enter the cab. It will start at 35 baht. Non metered taxi's grossly over charge and insist on stopping at shops of their 'sponsors' whether you like it or not.
The Bangkok Sky Train (BTS) is a cheap and very easy way to get around Bangkok. It does get very busy around 5 - 6 pm. The metro (underground) is amazing. Spotlessly clean, organised and very safe. It has connections to the BTS and between them you can reach most of the main shopping areas in Bangkok.
To get the best sight seeing opportunities use the Public Boat that goes up and down the Chao Phraya river (best place to get it is next to the Royal Orchid Sheraton Hotel) . For 100 baht you can get a 1 day pass that allows you to hop on and hop off all day long. It stops near the major tourist attractions and with your ticket you will get a small guide book that tells you the best places to visit.
Around the major attractions, Grand Palace, Wat Po (reclining Buddah) etc beware of men offering you tourist advice. Do NOT believe them when they tell you attractions are closed and never buy your entrance tickets from them. They are scam artists and cannot betrusted.
Riding a Tuk Tuk can be a fun experience and also very cheap but just as the unmetered taxis do, they will also insist you visit their sponsors shops.
For the bst shopping Siam Square is the best stop on BTS. The Paragon Center has superb shopping and a fabulous food court. Also home to a great aquarium and cinema complex. For market style shopping 6 floors high you can't beat MBK. Suan Luam night market is right outside Lumpini underground station and is open from 6pm - 1am. Here is the perfect place for all your take home souvenirs and you can get great foot massages for 300 baht per hour. Not to be missed.

“Fantastic Value”

Majestic Grande Hotel

5 of 5 stars

4/4 found this review helpful

For the money, this is one of the best deals in Bangkok. This hotel is clean, the rooms are comfortable and well appointed, and the service is excellent. I was greeted warmly on arrival and the concierge was helpful to me throughout my stay.

I loved the location and I got some fantastic clothes made less than 5 minutes away at one of Bangkok's best tailors (Rajawongse on Sukhumvit). On checkout there was a small discrepancy on the bill which they fixed for me quickly and professionaly. I would definitely not hesitate to recommend this hotel and I will happily stay here again in the future.

“A good hotel”

Majestic Grande Hotel

5 of 5 stars
Melbourne, Australia
Feb 7, 2007
6/6 found this review helpful

I stayed at the Majestic Grande for two weeks, arriving on the 20th January. I used the hotel as a base for travel around Asia in my first week, and stayed in Bangkok for the second.

The hotel is located on Sukhumvit Soi 2 so it's very central and a short walk to the BTS at Ploen Chit and taxis are readily availalable on Sukhumvit too. This makes it very convient for getting around Bangkok and the major shopping centres are only a couple of stops away.

From the beginning to the end of my stay the service was excellent. Staff were helpful and friendly and spoke good English so I didn't have to resort to using my Thai, which was a relief! The staff were also very responsive to an email query I sent regarding hte provision of wireless internet access.

My 'Grande Superior' room on the 14th floor was comfortable and finished to a good standard. It overlooked the express way but I didn't find the noise bothersome since it was quite well supressed.

Not being a morning person I never woke up early for breakfast, but on my last day I had time to visit the cafe/restuarant on the 7th floor where breakfast is served each day. Again the service was extremely friendly and the standard of the catering was good.

I used the laundry service several times during my stay and was pleased with the results. Nothing strange happened to any of the articles of clothing. The express service is quick and efficient.

The only issues I had with this hotel were a few minor niggles.

There are only two lifts serving all 20+ floors so you can be left waiting at times.

Sukhumvit Soi 2, on which this hotel is located, tends to attract taxi drivers waiting for tourists. In my experience it's best to politely ignore these guys and get a taxi on Sukhumvit since they are likely to charge you a flat rate fare rather than the cheaper metered fare.

The pool area, also on the 7th floor, seems to face north so doesn't get much in the way of sunlight. Still the outdoor seating area is pleasant and personally, I welcomed sitting in the shade.

Overall this hotel presents excellent value for money. The rooms are pleasant and comfortable and the service is friendly and efficient. The location is very central and hard to beat.

I will certainly stay here again on my next visit to Bangkok.

“Good overall”

Majestic Grande Hotel

Feb 6, 2007
1/4 found this review helpful

Stayed here for 3 nights just before Christmas. The rooms were fine although I thought that the bathrooms let the place down. Buffet breakfast was ok but there wasnt really enough variety, compared to other hotels I have stayed in.

As said before the swimming pool is really small, and is overlooked by the 'breakfast area' so I wouldnt stay here if a pool is a priority.

Location is ok roughly a 15 min walk to the Erawan statue.

Overall a good choice of hotel at a reasonable price not really a 5 star hotel tho'
