A few minor niggles as there often is anywhere but after my first time here I am very impressed. First the negs....no hot water the first afternoon and no drinking water in the room? The water was looked at the first night and it was better but still ran hot/cold, the drinking water was a mere oversight. The location is ideal for us, easy bts at either phrom phong or asoke. Locality can be either good or bad depending on what you're visiting for I guess. The breakfast room/downstairs restaurant is small, perhaps too small for breakfast if everybody arrives at once. Breakfast itself was really nice/different, service a little lacking but it was busy. It's a la carte so the buffet part is totally token and really an afterthought. As a boutique establishment (in the proper sense of the word), breakfast is boutique and the pool is too....however two choices from the a la carte pp should be enough to satisfy anyone and the dishes are all great and beautifully presented. I didn't swim in the pool but it's a kinda plunge pool which of course is adequate and the pool deck is pleasant too. I loved the room I was allocated (upgraded supposedly)....really nice, neat interior decor, wood effect flooring and fittings, elegant bathroom with slick understated tiling, separate shower and bath, city view window. The room itself was a kinda L shape + alcove/entry with a great bed and linen, desk, wardrobe, mirror, f/s tv, kitchenette , balcony etc. I'd definitely go back, no question at all.
