“Good location but a bit dated.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 February 2012
1
person found this review helpful

Stayed for 3 nights. The room was okay a bit dated, clean although the windows was very dirty. Bed comfortable but the pillows were hard as rocks. We could hear everything that happened in the halls, the staff was loud in the mornings when they started cleaning the rooms a 7.30. The breakfast buffet was good and all the staff was ready to assist you when you needed them. The wifi in the room didn´t always work and at 200 baht a day I excpect it to work by the pool and in the lobby.

“Great Place for English Speaking Tourist”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 February 2012
1
person found this review helpful

Most of the staff is very friendly, accommodating and speak great English. Beds are comfortable, clean and mattresses in good shape. Room is fine for a traveler who is spending one or two nights. The swimming pool is beautiful, large and private. Buffet breakfast includes both Western and Asian, staff is very attentive and fills up your coffee cup constantly. Located on very busy street near great restaurants (highly recommend Mango Tree Restaurant) and Night Market. Also, next door is a good little noodle shop. We kept coming back to this hotel after our tours to Chiang Mai and Cambodia and it was like coming "home".

Room Tip: Ask for a view of the swimming pool. It is quiet.

“OK but grubby and not great breakfast”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 January 2012

Booked this one a bit last minute. Was a completely different experience to the Swissotel down the road - functional, a bit dated, very busy, grubby and expensive for what it is. Was disapointed with breakfast. Did not live up to the standard of other hotels on our Thailand trip (which were cheaper too)

“A very nice hotel, well located in Bangkok”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 January 2012
3
people found this review helpful

The Tawana Bangkok is very well located in central Bangkok, a couple of blocks from the Night Market, lots of good restaurants, etc. The staff is very friendly, many speak English, and there is an extensive breakfast buffet with both Eastern and Western foods. The standard room is reasonably spacious and clean. There is a nice pool and pool bar.

Room Tip: Choose a room on a higher floor, less traffic noise.

“care with Luggage”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

Very responsive staff and very good with English. While on a OAT tour my luggage was broken into from room to departure bus. A full denial of incident yet the zipper was busted open. Took three hours to manually repair while on the next leg of our tour to Myanmar. My wife's costume jewelry was also stolen during this time. Location is great if you desire the real life of Bangkok.

Room Tip: Watch your luggage handllng
