I wanted to stay in Asia Hotel for my Bangkok trip due to the location. For those who went BKK before, they will know that Asia hotel situated at a very good location which is linked to the BTS and the price is considered reasonable. ( but somehow the room rate is getting more and more expensive as compared to last year) And know what.... the travel agency called me and told me that the standard rooms for Asia Hotel is fully booked, left with the deluxe room which require us to pay 35 bucks more per pax. Come and think about it... 35 bucks more per pax... based on twin sharing of the hotel room, it will cost 70 bucks more for one room jus to upgrade.That's quite expensive!!!
So she gave me a list of hotels to choose. Yeah, none of them caught my eye after reading those reviews on the hotel. Not only the bad reviews.... the location is a bit off too. Argh... help me out with it man.
The list of hotel given:
1. Baiyoke Suite
2. Eastin Hotel
3. Bangkok Palace
4. First Hotel
5. Bangkok City Inn
From the reviews that i have read, Baiyoke Suite has the best location. Though it's not located near to any BTS, it's situated at the heart of Pratunam whereby there's a lot of shopping can be done. All the rooms in the hotel are all Suites ( with one living room and one bedroom) So i assumed it's quite spacious. And of all, the breakfast is served at 43th floor i think... having a nice scenery while having breakfast. That's a plus point... certainly brighten up your day. However, the reviews mentioned about the old and dirty rooms, those slow lifts which need to wait up to 5-10 mins and it's always very packed.
As for Eastin hotel and Bangkok Palace, the comments given are not too bad... as in the breakfast served... rooms... the services. Jus that the location.... is far away from shopping area. I have to choose between the location and the comfort of the hotel. That's so tough to decide. Well... perhaps i should choose the comfort of the hotel coz cab is easily available there and it's quite cheap. Orh.... nvm... let me think about it again.
I jus wanna make it a pleasant trip.
Mm... i'm gonna have my driving test on this coming Thurs. Okie, i'm a little nervous... I'm a little worried... I'm a little confused... I'm a little of everything...
I went for my driving lesson everyday since last sunday till my test date. Actually, i'm quite tired. Jus that i need to practice more for my driving... I still can't do my vertical parking that well. I don't hit onto any pole but tend to park more to the right. Orh.... Most of the people have problem with parallel parking and I'm jus one kind of weirdo to have problem on the easier parking. Fine, I'm weird.
The driving lesson yesterday was hilarious one... i did many stupid mistakes, my small little actions and my grumblings that keep the instructor "entertained" for that 100 mins. Can't help it... Last lesson today.
Wish me all the best for the driving test. Cutie , sweetie swift.... I'm coming!!!
