Metropolitan (Metropolitan)

( 5 stars , Bangkok , Thailand )

Fantastic hotel! Preferred it to the Banyan Tree next door. So quiet and relaxing. Great facilities and attention to detail of the service provided by the staff. Loved the Bose hi-fi in room. My wife and I are returning in three week time for another stay.

great stay go for bussines but try the pool is great.

Take the metropolitan room. Much bigger and slightly more expensive. With the good size sitting area it is good value for money. The thai massages are divine. Best ever. The location is oke but you need a taxi to get to whereever you like to go except for the drink with the best view, next door on the roof of the BayanTree hotel (that is overpriced as an hotel).

really lovely hotel, spa was really relaxing. great cocktails in the bar. had a fantastic stay! fantastic hotel.

Excellent hotel, nice design, good location. Good choice !

This was a really great hotel. The rooms were beautiful and the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. If you have the option of getting breakfast included with your room, I would definitely do it. The breakfasts are delicious and there are so many choices. The hotel also isn't that close to anything that looked like it would have somewhere to eat breakfast.

The style and decor is extremely modern and chic, the staff are the friendliest and most helpful I have experienced, and the facilities were wonderful. The spa, the exercise room, the steam room and Sauna, the restaurants, the Metro bar . . . My wife and I can't stop dreaming of our return.

We got married in Bangkok last weekend, and spent our wedding night at the Metropolitan. When I made the booking on AsiaRooms.com I ticked the box about us being honeymooners, and followed it up with a call to the hotel to emphasise this point in the hope that they would give s preferential service. When I made the call I mentioned that after the wedding we'd bring some friends back to the hotel's bar, and the reservations staff asked me to call on the day of the wedding with numbers so they could book a table in the bar for us. When I called on the wedding day, it transpired that the hotel bar was closed because of local government elections (no alcohol is served in Thailand when elections are on), however the Metropolitan excelled itself, by upgrading us to a two-floor Penthouse Suite, with our own bar staff, so that we could have a private party! We did have to pay corkage on all the champagne we brought into the hotel from the wedding, but they even reduced this price for us. When we arrived after the wedding we were personally met by the front office manager, who open the car door for us, welcomed us by name and congratulated us on our marriage. We were treated like royalty, some 30+ of our friends came back and partied in our suite, which was more like a private nightclub! The room itself was fabulous, with all the understated, minimalist style that the hotel is famous for. Breakfast was included in the price of the room, and was served in it's Cy'an restaurant, and was as excellent as I would expect from a restaurant of this calibre.

Absolutely loved this hotel: service was impeccable (efficient, polite, unobtrusive), room gorgeous, food at Cyan restaurant delicious. The organic restaurant, Glow, was a bit pretentious but the breakfasts are great. It's tricky to find the pool but even that's wonderful once you do. The spa at the hotel is great value and excellent service, again. There's a Met Bar which is great for a drink in the week. At the weekend it's right there if you want to party but if you want a quiet drink, forget it!!

the ulitmate chic hotel , its the only place to stay , everything about the hotel is tip top and you just dont want to leave
