"Once you get past the excellent location, and pretty nice decor, the fun ends there. The staff (with the exception of the valet/lot attendants and the barista in the lobby) were generally unfriendly throughout the process. Not warm in any way. I do not have a problem with Muslims but I quickly got the sense that that we would have been treated differently had my wife been wearing a hijab. Aside many many judgmental glances, the unwillingness to offer basic extras that every hotel I have been to in this world without a charge, was off putting.
Extra pillows, “no sir, 4 is enough”.
Extra blanket for blanket for my 6 year old “200 Bhat sir”.
One extra hour to checkout since our plane is not leaving until 4:20 pm. “No sir, we are booked, you WILL check out at noon”.
Breakfast ******. And not just because “chicken ham isn’t ham” but because this was basically a very slightly elevated continental breakfast. When I stay at a “Resort and Spa” I am not expecting “Comfort and Suites in Nebraska” for Breakfast. At least give me the good waffle maker if that is the case.
Breakfast continued: I have had acceptable coffee from espresso machines. It’s possible. Whatever came out of this Nescafé machine no matter which beverage was chosen, tasted burnt and terrible. I gladly paid the Barista for Lavazza, which was serviceable, but not special.
The bottom line is, this place might be winning a few green awards, and it may have a decent spa, but the ability to make the guest feel welcome or special is not up to resort standards, and definitely not up to Thai standards. A one time only stay for us."
