Lasalle Suites & Spa

The hotel staff is very friendly. As I was there to attend a BITEC event, the location was not bad and the hotel provides a nice free shuttle to get to the event. Only for when you want to stay around the event place though. Has a nice pool and decent enough gym to get some training going. The breakfast is really a "you get what you pay for kind of breakfast". At 200 baht per person, it is very basic, not a buffet, but it gets the job done.

Your comfort will vary greatly depending on your selected room. One room, the family suit, I stayed in had ants crawling all over the place. Every night we also have at least one or two gecko visitors in the main room. It was very obvious how they were entering the apartment and the hotel should fix this entrance. The other room was much cleaner and had none of these problems as the room was not facing the street side. The infrastructure of the hotel is very old. Very old gym equipment that is about to break (the multi-gym equipment overhead cable is partially snapped, an accident waiting to happen), using 2 treadmills at the same time creates a power surge they capture with safety block (so they obviously know about the problem), an elevator that you step in and the first thing you hear is broken tiles, we had 2 power outages during our stay, etc . Attending a BITEC event or for going to the nearby golf club, it really the only good reason I can see to stay at this hotel. Just for visiting Bangkok it is much too far away from everything, including the BTS line.
