I was very much looking toward to my stay at SO as I’d been to many wine and cheese nights and always thought it looked 5star fabulous.
The service was fine at check in, they didn’t go overboard with information but speedy enough.
The hotel smelt gorgeous and was quite trendy but super dark! We stumbled to our room after getting out the lift!
The room itself, I’d gone for the cheapest So Comfy, city view. Was certainly large enough, very stark and white but clean, but I’d definitely say it was worn. The fridge door wouldn’t close and the table rocked on its legs. Every piece of furniture was rather angular and the sink and taps in the bathroom were impractical.
There was actually some building work going on outside our room ( this was 10.30 pm Sunday night) and the aircon unit dripped rhythmically until I switched it off.
We were very disappointed in the morning to discover there was only one English teabag and zero milk or powdered substitute, 3 sachets of decaf coffee and only one normal… for a 5star establishment I find this sloppy… we need our caffeine in the morning!
Breakfast, however, was delicious, lots of choice. Good coffee, protein balls and rejuvenating shakes
Pool area was fine ( again not as I’d remembered) quite narrow and very busy, but the staff were pleasant and the dj was good. Great views overlooking the park and the Bangkok traffic.
Overall I’d go back for brunch or wine and cheese and if I was feeling flush I’d book a better room, otherwise there’s cheaper places for the same quality.
