Epic views of the Royal Bangkok Sports Club golf course
The legendary breakfast buffet at Viu with wagyu steak and eggs benedict
In sintesi: It’s a classic dame that’s starting to show her wrinkles—impeccable service, but the hard product feels a decade older than the nearby Waldorf Astoria.
Recensito da @Flywithyang: I checked into The St. Regis Bangkok and was blown away by the silence. My room overlooked the Royal Bangkok Sports Club—waking up to that much green in the middle of the city felt unreal. The marble bathroom was the perfect place to decompress after meetings.
Cosa hanno detto gli ospiti che hanno soggiornato qui
The hype
Travelers adore the location and the breakfast, but many note the rooms feel 'tired' compared to newer Bangkok luxury options.
Reality check
The 'City View' is often just a view of the mall across the street, and the carpet in hallways is showing significant wear.
You value traditional service rituals like afternoon tea and sabering champagne
You need to be on the BTS Skytrain line for work but want a quiet station
You are a breakfast person—the spread at Viu is a destination in itself
Pulizia e manutenzione
8.5
Housekeeping: Generally thorough twice-daily service, but recent reports cite missed dusting in corners.
Bathroom hygiene: Immaculate marble, though some grout lines in showers are showing age.
Maintenance: The biggest issue. Worn carpets in hallways, scuffed furniture legs, and 'tired' upholstery are common complaints.
Linens & towels: High quality, crisp, and plentiful. No complaints here.
Odors & scents: Signature St. Regis scent in the lobby is lovely; some older rooms have a faint musty smell from humidity.

Prima di prenotare
Buono a sapersi
Incidental deposit is typically 2,000 THB per night or a flat $100-200 USD hold on your card.
The BTS station (Rajadamri) is on the Silom line, meaning you have to transfer at Siam to get to Sukhumvit spots.
Butler service includes complimentary coffee/tea delivery 24/7—use it!

FAQ e consigli nascosti
Tutto ciò che vuoi davvero sapere prima di prenotare.
Is the butler service actually useful?
Yes, for two things: unlimited coffee/tea delivered to your room (saves $10/cup) and pressing 2 garments per day for free. The packing/unpacking service is awkward for most.
Does the hotel have a club lounge?
No. St. Regis brand typically does not have club lounges. Platinum/Titanium members get breakfast at Viu and a happy hour ritual at the bar instead.
Is the pool good for kids?
Not really. It's a narrow lap pool with a quiet, adult vibe. Kids might feel out of place or bored.
How is the location for tourists?
Excellent for shopping (walk to Central World/Paragon) and Erawan Shrine, but a bit sterile if you want gritty street life.
Can I walk to the malls?
Yes, you can walk to Gaysorn Village in 5 minutes and Central World in 10 minutes via the skywalk, avoiding street traffic.
Is it worth paying for the Golf Course View?
100% yes. The City View is depressing concrete; the Golf Course view is one of the best urban green vistas in Asia.
