Spent 4 nights here with my son. We took a bus from the airport and were dropped off on the main street. A local phoned the hotel for us and they sent their free tuk tuk to pick us up. This was a great service that we could use anytime to get to and from the monorail. Were given green tea and a warm towel on check-in. The room was large with a nice bathroom. The hotel is new so everything is modern. Coin operated washing and drying were available, so that can save some money. The buffet breakfast was quite good. On 2 mornings when we had early starts for tours, the hotel packed us a breakfast to go. All staff were very friendly. This really is a great hotel, but it's a bit off the main road, and it's easy to take a wrong turn trying to find it. We found a nice Thai restaurant nearby and Pak Bakery where we had lunch one day. The nice rooms and friendly staff were the real features.

We stay at Admiral Premier between 31st Jan and 3rd Jan 2012 before proceeding onwards to Koh samui. Though its an old property and needs re-furbishing we were delighted constantly by the friendly and helpful staff. The location perfectly suited us as it was in a lane away from the noisy main road but closeby to both the Asok Skytrain and Sukumvit MRT. They run a complementary tuk-tuk service for guests to the skytrain and MRT which was a nice touch.
Rooms are badly in need of re-furbishing though we were happy with the cleanliness. A couple on nice restaurant around added to the good experience - especially the Thai restaurant.
Only disappointment was the breakfast - options very limited and just okay in taste.

I was on a beach holiday in Hua Hin but took 1 night off for a 2 day tour of Bangkok.

Stayed here at a reasonable rate compared to Western orientated pricing hotels. It is an aparthotel. Room was comfortably furnished but with a living room/kitchen and desk with internet connection. The bathroom was excellent and had a washing machine.

Ordered food in off the internet and it was delivered to my room. One extra guest arrived and on request a separate bed quite adequate for a large adult was set up circa 10 pm. Of course I had priced for this in the orginal quote but note this bed was in the living room, which was spacious and there was a comfortable double bed in the bedroom so this would sleep a family of 3 in uncrowded conditions.

No tourist views worth speaking of from the windows but the reception desk were polite and English was spoken.

There is a breakfast room which we never used but it looked pleasant enough so at a cost (no details sorry), you can eat in the Hotel without going out.

The star deal was that the hotel has a little 'taxi' service (tuk tuk really) free of charge to the nearest sky rail station, which happens to also be a Metro station 2. The admiral premier will also pick you up from the Metro Station. The station is called asok.

Now when you know the walking route note the following comments that come from one of my adult sons living in Thailand. As you turn left out of the Hotel, walk the short distance to the end of the side street where you will find a little pattiserie, selling yummy cakes. My son recommended this to the sweet toothed. The Patisserie is called "Pak Bakery". At Pak Bakery turn right and at the end of the short side street turn left at a illuminated sign for "Giusto", an italian restaurant with it's own parking lot. Along this busier side street you will find a pub called "Queen Vic" which reputedly does a full english breakfast which is good. That is if you can stomach that much english food in a hot climate. Turn right at the end of the street you are in and you will come immediately to a massive crossroads. Just around the corner to the right is the entrance to the Metro. The station is "Asok".

I have written a review on the metro elsewhere. However if you want to use The Skyrail system instead of taking a right at the massive traffic intersection look above you and find the stairway up to high level pedestrian walkway and follow the signs to the rail station "Asok", which is probably 300 metres distant.

I was never lost but got stuck on ticketing and there was always a younger european around to help and they all speak english (apart from the russians).

This skyrail route (there are 2 in Bangkok) will take you straight to "Siam" station where there is upmarket fashion clothing and a lot more in the mall for a fraction of the price in the UK.

The admiral premier quiet and restful and I got a good night's sleep. Water was hot and everything worked well.

I was there in January 2012.

The hotel is nice, the rooms are large and we had a balcony off our room.
Compared to other hotels we have stayed at on our holiday we thought the room was great, nice and big with a balcony, in room safe and all the mod cons.
We thought the staff were friendly overall however we did have a bad experience with one man who works on concierge in the evenings. We checked in around 11pm on the 5th of Jan and the man from concierge took us to our room and virtually wouldn't leave the room unless we tipped him. He made us feel very uncomfortable. One night we needed some extra towels in our room and we hesitatated to call reception because we didn't want this guy to bring us something and Not leave our room unless we pay him.
The hotel is good- most staff are friendly - hopefully if we stay here again we won't get attitude from the evening concierge.
