Stayed 2 nights (arriving very late on the 1st night) at the Adelphi while stopping over in Bangkok. I had a one bedroom apartment (see pictures).

The Adelphi is easy to get to and the reception staff had my documentation all ready for my arrival and were very friendly The Adelphi location is close to the Nana skytrain station which would make it convenient for getting around Bangkok.

The apartment was very well appointed and included a kitchen, lounge, bathroom and bedroom. The kitchen area included a washing machine and mini-bar. Two large flat screen TVs were in the apartment and the high speed internet connection was included in the room rate (3200baht per night).

The only meals I had at the Hotel were breakfast. The breakfast menu was satisfactory and good quality although the range of items to select was not large (cereals, fruit, toast, danish, cooked items of sausage, hashbrowns, omelette/egg & fruit juice). The cooked breakfast is prepared to order which was nice. The restaurant was pleasant enough and I would recommend dining outside on the veranda.

The swimming pool (see pics) was good for cooling down and doing lengths and the Gymnasium had a nice range of cardio and weight equipment.

I would recommend the Adelphi for business travellers stopping over in Bangkok and people who are doing business for a few days or more in the city. It would also be good for families who are spending time in Bangkok and want a little more space than that offered by Hotels.

I am suprised to read about the bad experiences of the last two guests. My husband and I were at Adelphi from 12 to 14 March and our experience was very good. I made an internet booking and called the day before to confirm the booking with the hotel. On the day of check-in, we had no problems at all and were given the room that we requested (non-smoking, king sized bed). I agree with the other reviewers that breakfast was basic but with the amazing food that's available in Bangkok, a light breakfast was the kindest thing for our stomachs!

We stayed in the deluxe one-bedroom suite, and found it very spacious and clean. The kitchen was really useful for light meals in, and there was cable tv both in the bedroom and the living room. Our only complaint was that the aircon was rather noisy, but considering that we were out most of the day, it is not a big issue.

Location wise, the Adelphi can't be beat. Just next to Nana station, it enabled us to travel to most parts of Bangkok via the skytrain easily.

A word of advice about the taxi service from the airport: you should pay no more than 350 baht (including tolls). Just go to the public taxi queue located just outside the arrival hall and take a number. They are quite organised. However, if you're going to the airport from the hotel, the fare may even be lower than 300 using the meter as the hotel is located just before the entrance of highway.

I really hope that no one else suffers from the effects of the broken waterpipe!

I was very disappointed with Adelphi hotel. I got in to do check in and they said there was a broken water pipe on my room and I had to move to another hotel from the same chain. I had read about this as a common con. So I said I wasn't going any other hotel they had to find me a room, then a receptionist came from the back room to try to convince me to go to the other hotel. The discussion went to 45min and I was tired and cried and they kept saying the hotel was full and I had to move. I was very upset and almost giving up, as she was calling another hotel for us to stay, I notice a lady doing her check in. That show to me that they were lying to me. I was furious I walked to the receptionist and asked how come this lady had a room and I didn't, she said my room had issues, and I said I arrived before so if there was a free room you should have told me even if was more expensive...the receptionist notice that she lost the argument and said “Please sit down we will find you a room”. They then offered a double bed room and I explained I was on my honeymoon and she then found a king bed room a smoking room unfortunately but I was too tired to continue to discuss..Off course the room smelled badly but we bought some incenses to try to survive.

Besides that the location of the hotel is good since is near the Nana Station, the rooms a big and nice and breakfast is simple. Unfortunately because of the issues on the check in I didn’t felt secure on the hotel, they had already proved that they can’t be trusted.
