Somewhere to Escape - Hometel

可以説是泰國窮遊性價比最高的了吧，酒店設施稍微有點舊，但是特別乾淨，酒店老闆也特別熱情。在高架橋旁邊，開始還擔心會很吵，才發現多慮了，晚上特別安靜。位置離BTC特別近，而且去鄭王廟，大皇宮都很近，如果不考慮五星級以及泳池之類的絕對是性價比之王

很滿意，商家很熱心，環境還不錯，安靜整潔

房間還不錯 衛生也算乾淨 前台熱情但是地理位置比較差，出行的話不是太方便，都需要搭計程車

You must read this review in conjunction with an earlier review I wrote in Jan 2023 (see below, marshaanddavid All You Need In A Good 2-Star Hotel) otherwise this review will make little sense, which would be a pity! I, and family, have stayed here twice since my first review and this is an update; obviously if we keep on returning we are happy with the hotel, the pleasant people who run it, the level of co-operation we receive, the value and definitely the location. Additions/amendments as follows: 1. About 95% of my previous review remains accurate, including the strong recommendation. 2. We stayed in the same Family Room, No. 38, which now has a microwave and a new split-type aircon – and is very effective. Poo is the name of the cleaner (enough said). I said earlier that there were no shops but to be accurate part of the building on the G/F in the front is an optometrist. The hotel is split into 2 halves, the apartments, which we stay in, and Escape. Escape is the newer part but I have no further knowledge of layout, amenities etc. On the visit in Dec 2023/Jan 2024, we needed to make adjustments to our stay whilst there and Khun Tor was able to accommodate us, not so straightforward over the Christmas and New Year period. He invited the hotel guests to his rooftop to watch the New Year’s Eve fireworks to avoid the huge crowds. I needed to have a tailored shirt delivered and returned to my room to find it there (I did buy Khun Aey a snack for tea every now and then which she appreciated and I looked after Poo). 3. The nearby open-area food court I mentioned last time is in fact the Bang Rak Bazaar which is undergoing modernization and whilst the surroundings are nicer and the variety of food choices wider, the cheap, but very tasty, Thai dishes have declined. The best stall has moved on. The bazaar is still recommended, just, but the choice of food elsewhere is almost overwhelming. Don’t forget the duck. Prachak Roasted Duck Restaurant, nearby, is well-known (see my separate report) but remember the duck shop just to the left of Robinsons Department Store for a take-away. 4. As you are walking along Charoen Krung Road, perhaps to the money changer, a tailor or Prachak Restaurant, there is a shop on the left at the corner of Charoen Krung Road and Soi 44 (remember to look up for street signs) which sells coconut sweets/cakes and the flat, pandan and coconut milk ones are nice – definitely not expensive. Also on the left and before you reach the sweet shop, is a shop selling see-through bags of peanuts and coconut (spicy of course) which are displayed in the street and are worth trying for a snack. 5. For some unknown reason, I missed out bespoke tailors within easy walking distance last time, a serious omission in Bangkok! Trip Advisor can help here. I can recommend Alex Il Sarto, an upmarket tailor, Praise Tailors, cheaper, and Dream Women’s Tailor for my wife and I have reviewed all 3 separately. 6. Exit the hotel to the left, then take th

The manager was great and very helpful

For longer stay in Bangkok, with a a very friendly rate, Sathorn Terrace can't be beat. As far as location, it is a short walking to all the shopping and restaurants and with a short walk to BTS. The staff is very nice and accommodating.
