“Just tolerable..”

0/1 found this review helpful

So, having sent comments already to email without receipt or response..



Staff:
functional. don't have any 'spirit'
the groups other property, President Park, overall has a more lively staff. Management here needs to follow that example for managing staff.


Room:
Artwork and accents should be better quality.

In construction, floor to ceiling windows should be used for all rooms.

Having half-wall windows only closes off the energy of the room,

and blocks out valuable light space.


thick blankets should be better quality.
current ones are unpleasant color and texture.

do not go with rest of the room or design.


Facilities:

Gym is very poorly designed.
Cramped and uncomfortable to use.

Should be on a higher floor, and with an open view (See Grand President gym)

and proper normal ventilation.

Dining:
most of the room service menu items are not served as listed.
listed as a gourmet menu, but does not translate as such.
ingredients are skimpy.

for example
'eggs benedict- on english muffin' is served as two tiny poached eggs, served on 1 thin slice of standard bread, with a dab of mustard sauce. like a kid's lunch menu. this is not real eggs benedict.
'french toast, with cinnamon- is again standard grocery store bread, with no milk in the batter, and no cinnamon used anywhere in the dish. bland.
soups are served in little cups. but priced as bowls.
soup with vegetables have a couple tablespoons of said veg.
'solitaire mixed salad, with rock lobster and heart of palm' is served without either of those ingredients.

either the cooking staff need to prepare the dishes properly, and management needs to supply the ingredients to make the dishes as listed.

overall, the dishes bland and empty.



Maid: stacks wet dishes after wash without drying them

“Loved this Hotel”

President Solitaire

Aug 9, 2008

This hotel was excellent in every way. The staff were really accomodating, room service was excellent. Our rooms were fab with all facilities you could want. Very reasonable rates. Hotel tuk tuk will take you to the end of Soi 11 where you can get the skytrain from Sukhumvit Nana. Quiet street where hotel is. Home to an excellent Spa called Ananda, quiet expensive as Thai prices go but excellent service. Made our first days in bangkok very enjoyable. Would definatley stay here again.

  • This TripAdvisor Member:
    • Liked — Excellent hotel for very reasonable rates
    • Disliked — location was a little too far from Sukhumvit main area, but our Tuk Tuk driver took care of that

“Loved it, amazing value”

President Solitaire

Aug 2, 2008

I booked two nights in one of their Platinum suites but had to change my dates twice. English on the phone was a bit hard but my dates were changed fine. Staff was incredibly courteous and friendly, as expected from most good Asian hotels. I was upgraded to a Penthouse suite, and at that rate, it's incredible value. The suite was great, super clean and well kept daily. Location is very good, in the heart of the sukomvit. This hotel blows the well-known brands away in terms of quality/price and I strongly recommend getting their suites.

“Felt like royalty!”

President Solitaire

5 of 5 stars
Wigan, England
Aug 2, 2008

Really enjoyed our 3 night stay at the President Solitaire. The staff were very friendly and attentive and treated us like royalty - running to open doors, pressing for the lift etc. The room was very spacious with all you need and a fantastic bathroom. Didn't mind the bit of a walk to the sky train which would have been easier to navigate had there not been stalls everywhere blocking the pavement. All part of the experience of Bangkok. Would definitely stay here again if I return and would recommend this hotel to others.

“Bling hotel”

President Solitaire

5 of 5 stars
St Albans, Hertfordshire
Aug 2, 2008

Excellent hotel - huge clean rooms, very comfortable bed, friendly staff, fantastic breakfast!

Area is ...interesting - lots of Western men with Thai 'brides' I'm afraid, but you can turn a blind eye to all that. Close to Skytrain station which is a plus.

Would definitely recommend.

  • This TripAdvisor Member:
    • Liked — The rooms - large, clean and comfy. And the breakfast!
    • Disliked — The location
