Hello everyone!!
Its my last two weeks before I go back to England and I have been staying at this hotel, it is in the Sukhumvit area, soi 24. It has a au pon pain cafe under it and a starbucks in its side wing. So its really good for morning coffees!
The hotel itself has three different bits, the main wing, side wing and the spa section. First I have to say I booked through hotels.com and arrived at like 5am so I had to pay for an extra night, boooo!!!! But yeah the problem actually starts after I woke up!! Right, so apparently I didn't book the room with wifi included and I would have to pay, 199 baht for one day or 999 baht for a week worth of wifi! Lets just say the damn receptionist was being a lil bitch about it when I asked about it, I mean I only asked because I didn't know! I was really pissed off at how they treated my mum when she asked too. So with all this anger inside I went to the main wing and asked for an upgrade because they put me in the side wing and I was already not happy about it! And of course I got the upgrade and all seems to be OK but there was a fricking cockroach in the bathroom!!!! :O :O :O
OK so you might be thinking oh this is probably some cheapo hotel in Bangkok, right? NO, totally wrong!! This is a four star hotel and it used to be one of the most expensive and exclusive hotels around here, its not one anymore because there's a lot of new hotels popping up in the area, like the Hiltons and the competition is high so they dropped their prices a bit to make it more appealing, but its still pretty posh!!
Right so anyway, after that incident I called housekeeping and then got a call from the duty manager and I changed rooms. After all this I went down to get something to eat as I hadn't had anything to eat since I woke up, I was approached by the duty manager to say that they are upgrading me to a junior suit! Now your talking!!! ;) ;)
The junior suit s really nice, just like last time I came with dad! So yeah all is well now with the hotel I'm glad that the manger is still good, I mean really in Thailand even when you are in an expensive hotel the staff still looks down on you if you dress a certain way! Like really why?!?! People would not be staying here if they couldn't afford it right? I mean I can totally look down on the staff like how much do you earn a month? Can that be the same amount money that I am spending on this hotel in a week? NO!
BUT of course I didn't say that!! I can be pretty mean/ nasty when I am not treated right! Everything as been fine since then.
Oh one more thing taxi's don't really want to come to this area because there's a lot of traffic!
Anyway rant over...
I will blog more about Thailand when I get back
