One of the top notch hotels in Bangkok and the world. It is unique in its style and represents a bit yesterday's glory. Most recognized top hotels of today are very different style tending to a much more modern design. The Mandarin Oriental though conserves their own colonial Chic interior, combined lush greens and garden and impeccable service level. That is appreciated. But it also comes with a price level. And at the value side the amazing Grand old hotel loses quite some ground to St. Regis and Co in Bangkok. Personally I bring my money to one of the other top 5 star hotels where the rooms and suites are bigger, have a better layout and provide a more homey feeling. If you are in the quest to get away from that and enjoy being transported into a different time the Mandarin Oriental is maybe the best option in Bangkok of not one in the world to do so... For a price.
