After several days traveling in the North, this hotel was supposed to be our treat. What a disappointment! They didn't have the king bed we reserved. The room is practically off a parking garage and has a dank odor. When we complained, they did nothing. The hotel is full, so we can't change rooms. So full in fact, that we can't even get a reservation at the restaurant! On this trip we also stayed at the Hilton, which was amazing. Stay there instead. For the same price as the Sukhothai we got a huge suite with amazing river views and breakfast. The Sukhothai charges ridiculous amounts for breakfast. They even charge for the Internet access. The Sukhothai is completely overrated. Avoid!

Lovely calm retreat from the craziness of Bangkok with a treat of a pool. Not cheap, but good value for the quality of the rooms and facilities. Well-placed for access to Bangkok's central sites, walking distance from Pat Pong and the large night markets. If that's not your scene, the hotel's own restaurants offer a sheltered respite and it's right next door to the Banyan Tree's amazing rooftop bar and restaurant.

We stayed here for 4 nights total on our travels through Thailand. I must say the service was excellent as well as the cleanliness and accommodation.

The staff was courteous and friendly. The concierge was extremely helpful. He took our request for an authentic Thai seafood restaurant and made us a booking at a busy place. We found the pool staff to be attentive.

Overall the breakfast buffet was one of the best we had in Thailand. Tons of variety and prepared with care. Again the staff in the restaurant was top notch.

We would definitely recommend staying here while in Bangkok.

I stayed at the Sukhothai on two separate occasions this month. Both times I was given a complimentary upgrade to a suite.

Checkin was efficient both times although I had to wait the second time for a housekeeping check to make sure the room was ready.

The location of the hotel is not exactly ideal, but the subway is a 5-10 minute walk away. There are not a lot of things in walking distance like restaurants, but you can get a cab easily. And taxis in Bangkok are very cheap as long as the driver will use the meter and isn't looking to rip you off.

The breakfast is excellent with a big variety of items. I don't exactly understand why they require you to sign a bill for breakfast though when you are supposed to have it included in your room rate.

The internet service works well in room but it is a bit pricey.

There is a lot of security on the main floor.

The grounds are quite nice. They have nice Mercedes limos available. I did not use them so I don't know how much they cost but I assume it is not cheap.

It's hard to really complain about anything when I got upgraded to such a beautiful room for free. I think it was likely due to the travel agency I used.
