i stayed there about 6 years ago. Good property and good serviced staff. Nice location actually if you do not need to be near party places. Sanam Pao area is nothing much, but nearby Victory Monument and Ari has plenty of food.

nice. for that price, can get free breakfsat + 65m2 living room plus sleeping room for 42.55 per night inclusive of taxes is superb !!!

Plus is 3 min walk from bts, take to siam bts is 4 stops ...

wow your hotel booking got free cancellations ?
Else is risky to use BPG.
What is the policy like for starwoods bpg ?

So far only tried marriot BPG before, not bad, 25% towards my best price.
Booked Marriott sathorn 2bedroom suite + breakfast is 256 usual price.
Then found out other websites is 128.
Hence they offered me 25% discount of 128.
hence only paid 80+ for 3 adults in a 2bedroom suite + breakfast per night :)

SPG can do BRG even before make any actual reservation, but you need to book within 24h once they give you the new price. depending on how much monetary saving, sometime 2000pt on top of matched rate is better than additional 10%, considering 2000+some cash or 3000pt can get you a free room in some hotels in the program.

I always use hotelscombined to search price comparison. In my case, i spotted hotesclick.com got significant lower rate compare to other sites.

haha cool ! But you booked from direct starwoods website, is your hotel free cancellation ?

Because when I did my marriott sathorn BPG, my was free cancellations. so is not that risky. The problem with BPG is that if your hotel is not free cancellations, later the hotel give excuses do not want to honour your bpg. then omg liao ...

My marriott sathorn bpg, first time was not honoured. Then rebook again, they honoured my bpg bookings...

My booking will reflect the new price, price given by SPG staff via email, so i have evidence to back myself up. It's non free cancellation but i don't see any risk in it. I don't think a big chain like starwood would want to ruin their reputation over little thing like this.

icic. But i doubt I will try for non free cancellations.
coz my first marriot bpg was rejected.
however I cancelled my bookings and rebooked.
the second time, another person handles my case, and she approved it
and beat my price by 25% ...

anway u choose which option ? coz starwoods bpg has two options right ?
Find a lower rate and we'll give you a 10% discount or 2,000 Starpoints.

pls read again. i didn't book anything before hand when i request for price matched. Once they give me the new rate then i will go in and book as instructed within 24h. So the price matched is already confirm before i do any booking.

And i choose 2000pt, since it's only just 1 night booking, 10% isn't significant in my case. You will have to calculate which one is more beneficial to your situation when choosing the reward.

Just came back from bkk.

Short review.

Diamond ratchada - 700baht - My top choice.
Mode Sathorn - 75sgd - Deal.com - Not bad, but I rather go for citrus 22 for this price.
Belaire - $60sgd - agoda - Lousy. =(

citrus 22 better than mode sathorn ?
Coz only stayed before mode sathorn executive room, find it not bad.
Just wondering what is the strong point from citrus22 that makes u feel it is better?
Have also considered citrus22 before, but is inside the alley. Have tuk tuk out, but no tuk tuk into the hotel ...
