4 of us, wife and myself and in-laws had 2 room/2 bath appt for 4 nights Nov 19th 2007. We had just had a couple of weeks in Chiang Mai, and BKK is much more "full on". Fraser Suites was a great find. It's a bit "corporate" but as we were tourists and not getting up early, we hardly saw anyone else!. The rooms are great and the pool to die for. Breakfast as some other reviewer said was only OK, the choice is limited, but the staff will cook you eggs any way you like them and the coffee/expresso machine is fine. What is best about this place is the location, it is a 10minute walk accross the bridge and along Chapel rd to Pat Pong, and if you come out of the property and turn right, its a gentle 15 minute stroll to Suan Lum night market. What others have said about being about 1000 yards to BTR and the chaos of the traffic is true, but that's BKK for you. The 4 of us paid about £60 combined per night which included breakfast and the cleaner, we had kitchennette. dining area, washing machine and 3 TV's, so I think that is great value for a 2 bed spacious and pretty soundproof appt in what is the main banking and embassy sector of Bankgkok. My only gripe was that they offer free wi-fi, as we were holidaying we were sans laptop and they charged me 200 Baht for 15mins online in their "business" area, which given you get 1 hour anywhere usually for about 40/50 baht was a bit much. However, if we can get a similar deal we will go back and stay there again.
