The Landmark Bangkok: Reviews

Overall

I stayed two nights in the Landmark. I booked a suite directly with their web site as I wanted early check in (7:00am), rather than book an extra night.

I got a room on the 22nd floor, but had a disappointing view, as tall buildings tower around it.

The suite was big (over 70 sq m), and very 'designer', but it had some disadvantages; the marble bathroom floor was lethal when wet. I slipped and almost broke a toe! The hotel staff were very helpful, taking me to a local hospital, where an x-ray established that the toe was not broken. Then the hotel had the nerve to try to charge me for the limosine! I was furious. If I had been a real 'American' I would have sued them for endangering my life! This left an unreasonably bad taste in my mouth, which colored my otherwise positive view.

The 24-hour room service was efficient, and served up a good range of food. This was important, as I was in sufficient pain that walking was difficult. The hotel even opened the in-house Thai restaurant out of hours for me!

The area is a bit 'seedy' with some sex-industry outlets nearby, but after the toe-smashing incident, I didn't get out much to make a more balanced assesment.

It is near a Skytrain station, so it's very easy to get around town within the limits of that service. There is plenty I like to do near Skytrain, so I am very happy with that aspect of the hotels location.

The room had a high-speed internet connection, so I was able to work efficiently while room-bound.

I would consider returning, but prefer the riverside location of the Shangri-La.
