David Carrillo Review of Courtyard by Marriott Bangkok

One of my favorite spots in Bangkok. Great location just about equidistant to Chit Lom and Ratchadamri BTS Sky Train stations (free tuk tuk service is available to Ratchadamri). Easy walking distance to Siam Square and Central World. A couple of stops to the shopping at Nana Station in Sukhumvit. Nice pool. Nice gym. Nice restaurant with several options from 10-15 USD. The Green Curry is wonderful and could easily be shared by two if not ravenously hungry. The executive lounge on the 15th Floor is open all day. Light meals are served in the morning, afternoon and evening. Happy Hour is available in the evening as well. The view from the executive lounge at night is great.
Best thing about this hotel is the service. It is always friendly and prompt and courteous. I've visited this hotel on business and also as a traveler on bicycle. You might expect that when arriving by bicycle in the heat of summer that you might receive a less than enthusiastic reception, but just the opposite. The staff remembered me from my business trips, made special arrangements to see after my bicycle and made my stay as comfortable as when I visited fully suited.
Rates are great. There are a couple of Marriott properties nearby that are nicer with slightly better locations, but for the rate and the exceptional service and amenities this hotel is hard to beat.
