Centre Point Plus Hotel Silom — Hotel in Bang Rak Subdistrict

The ONLY area that one might call grand and of 4 star quality is the bathroom which includes a nice high tech toilet. With the recent superficial, "lipstick on a pig", renovations in the rooms they removed the washing machine from the "grand" suite. The "renovations" to the "grand" suite are mostly cosmetic; fresh new paint, in one area a new floor. The kitchen/dinning area which is closed off from the sitting area contains a table and 4 frumpy looking chairs and the only thing on the walls is a mirror. While there is an electrical outlet near the table it is inconveniently placed so to plug in your phone or laptop the cord has to be dangled across the walkway to one side of the table. The sitting area is also devoid of anything on the walls, just blank walls. The only furniture is a small 2 person sofa, what we call a love seat in the US, along with a coffee table; nothing else whatsoever, barren, lots of empty unused floor space, nowhere for guests to sit except on the bare floor, not at all grand. There are absolutely no electrical outlets in the sitting area, nowhere to plug in a laptop or cell phone to charge! The sitting area has 4 ceiling mount lights which can be on or off, no dimming, and not in the best positions to provide light to read by while sitting or trying to lay down crunched up on the small sofa. The bedroom area has just a bed along with a desk and chair with a lot of empty unused floor space. Except for over the bed there is nothing on the walls, bare and boring. There is no tv in the "grand" suite bedroom so no watching any late night tv in bed. Like the sitting area the 7 ceiling lights are all on or all off, no control at all, just bright harsh light. No bedside reading lamps. The desk does not have a desk lamp. No mirror above the desk so that perhaps where you could apply makeup. Nowhere else in the "grand" suite to sit and put on makeup which my wife didn't like. The large dressing area has 2 builtin wardrobes with nothing else, no mirror, no place to put on makeup, no electrical outlets. No other suitcase rack or other bench, etc provided in this "grand" suite. Like the rest of the "grand" suite nothing on the walls in the entrance area or bathroom areas making for a very sterile, uninviting place to stay. The poor lighting situation also leads to an uncomfortable stay as does the lack of electrical outlets essential in today's phone, tablet, laptop world. Except for the bathroom the other areas of the "grand" suite are what you might find in a mediocre three star hotel, not at this supposedly 4 star property that brands itself as "Plus", seriously? One also needs to be aware of the poor elevator service at the hotel which has only 2 small; 6 or squeeze in 8 people, elevators for guest use. You have to be quick to jump into the elevator when it comes because the doors slam shut very quickly which might also be a dangerous situation. Of course, the management made the elevator service worse when last year the "real" Grand Suite we stayed in 2 years ago was made into a Family Suite where they packed in more beds in the sitting area making more heads in beds and more traffic on the 2 small elevators. Yet the hotel continues to use some of those old photos of the real Grand Suite on their website and on booking websites, buyer beware. Now turning to some things at least in the hotel if not in the "grand" suite that are 4 star. The bountiful, quality breakfast buffet with the manager and staff is an excellent experience including a nice view of the Bangkok skyline through a wall of windows overlooking the pool. All of the management and staff that we met on site live up to a 4 star experience. But these few areas do not makeup for not being able to comfortable read in bed or watch tv, work at a desk and watch tv, or read comfortably in the sitting area, let alone have friends come to talk in the sitting area. No, this is NOT a "grand" suite by any stretch of the imagination. ed that the package...

We travelled very often to Bangkok and since I was a kid I've been staying at Centre Point Hotel Pratunam whenever we travelled to Bangkok. And now twenty years later with a family of my own Centre Point is still my first choice. This year we stayed at Centre Point Hotel Silom. As always, the hotel & service is top notch. Every employee of the hotel is friendly and accommodating. They make you feel very welcoming.

The hotel is connected to Robinsons mall. Which makes it very convenient for currency exchange and getting daily essentials. There are various eateries such as street food, restaurants, cafes, dessert shops and food courts right in front of Robinsons. It is within a walking distance from the hotel along with pharmacies, cosmetics shops and convenient stores such as the infamous 7 Eleven.The best part of the hotel's location is that it's not too far from the city centre and shopping/tourist hot spots.

If you are travelling with your own vehicle there is free parking which is shared with Robinson's mall but it is located at the very top of the parking lot and it is more spacious. There is easy access to public transport (bus and train) and taxi/tuk tuk service. The ferry stop is only a walking distance from the hotel which is one of the unique tours to see more of Bangkok sites and landmarks.

The hotel is very well maintained and renovations are done from time to time. The room is spacious and is an apartment-hotel styled setting. We stayed at the deluxe room with a balcony facing the city. You could also choose for a river view. There is a mini kitchen with sink, stove, cabinets, dining table for 2, a single door fridge with freezer and tableware provided. The bathroom has a shower space, bath tub and smart toilet. Queen sized bed, wardrobe, make up vanity table and a sofa. Other amenities provided such as safe box, hair dryer, television, iron and toiletries.

The breakfast is a buffet styled setting. With a combination of asian and western cuisines. It is very delicious. With various selections of warm meals, dim sum, congee & noodle station, salad & fruit bar, cereal & oats, pastry, egg station, a few vegetarian selections, variety of juice and freshly brewed coffee. The omelette is a MUST HAVE! I've been to many hotels and none ever made as perfect as the Chef in Centre Point.

Other facilities available at the hotel are gym, swimming pool, childrens play room, spa & massage parlour and meeting/conference room.

Overall we had a pleasant stay. Every employee from the receptionist to the bellman, security, waiter & waitresses, chef & cooks, maintenance technician and housekeeper were very hospitable and has an excellent service. This why Centre Point Hotel is one of the best places to stay when you're visiting Bangkok. We feel at home here and looking forward to staying with them...
