Metropole Bangkok

Poor service in an obscure location - don't bother

Comfortable bed Nice electronic bidet in the bathroom Room at sale price was cheap

Location - taxis cannot find this place and nothing is nearby. Rooms - small and cramped, especially the bathroom. Front desk staff - I talked to four different people, none of whom could tell me whether or not the room I booked on the Metropole website was actually prepaid or just booked. They kept changing their minds as to whether the room was paid or not. Computer system - couldn't find my reservation, so check-in took almost an hour. Bathtub - had a gutter around it that collected water and channeled it straight to the floor, so the bathroom constantly flooded. I had to pay a maid 40 baht to put extra towels around the bathtub to soak up the water. Shower curtain was mouldy along the bottom.
