Ascott Sathorn Bangkok

Bangkok, Thailand
$100-160/ nacht

Boek dit als You need a massive apartment-style footprint with a washer/dryer right on the BTS line, and you don't mind sacrificing modern gloss for square footage.

Waarom mensen ervan houden

  • Rooms are enormous (starting at 58sqm) compared to modern Bangkok shoeboxes
  • Literally steps from the St. Louis BTS station (Exit 1)
  • Full kitchens and laundry machines in-unit make long stays a breeze

Snel Overzicht: It’s a fading giant that delivers incredible space and convenience, but the 'gym' is currently a conference room and the traffic noise is relentless.

Beoordeeld door @unpredicatabletravels: I stayed in this incredible suite at Ascott Sathorn and honestly, the space is huge! The pool was my favorite spot to escape the Bangkok heat, and watching the Skytrain from my window at night was so mesmerizing. It felt like my own luxury apartment.

The hype

Travelers love the massive rooms and BTS convenience but consistently complain about the aging facilities and traffic noise.

Reality check

The '5-star' rating is a legacy label; expect 3.5-star maintenance with 5-star square footage.

  • You are traveling with family and need separate bedrooms
  • You want to do your own laundry and cook light meals
  • You prioritize easy BTS access over trendy decor

Schoonmaak & Onderhoud

8.5
  • Housekeeping: Generally reliable, though long-stay guests may not get daily service depending on the rate.
  • Bathroom hygiene: Clean but dated. Grout is scrubbed but shows age; water pressure is excellent.
  • Maintenance: The weak point. Expect scuffed furniture, peeling laminate, and noisy air conditioning units.
  • Linens & towels: Fresh and crisp, standard hotel quality.
  • Odors & scents: Lobby is heavily scented; some non-smoking rooms have a faint lingering stale smell.

Voordat je boekt

Goed om te weten

  • A cash deposit of ~500-1000 THB may be requested at check-in (unusual for 5-star)
  • Housekeeping might be 'on request' depending on your booking rate
  • The St. Louis BTS station is closer than Chong Nonsi—use Exit 1

Wat je mee moet nemen

  • High-quality earplugs (essential)
  • Laundry detergent pods (starter pack provided, but you'll want more)
  • HDMI cable (TVs are older, smart casting is hit-or-miss)

Kamer Genie

Veelgestelde vragen & Verborgen tips

Alles wat je eigenlijk wilt weten voordat je boekt.

Is the gym really closed?

Yes. As of March 2025, the main fitness center is closed for renovation. A temporary gym is set up in the 'Ascott 1 & 2' meeting rooms on the ground floor.

Is breakfast worth the 480 THB?

Probably not. Reviews describe it as 'standard hotel fare' and 'no fuss.' You're better off grabbing street food or hitting a cafe at Mahanakhon CUBE nearby.

Can I walk to the BTS?

Yes, it is incredibly close. St. Louis BTS station is practically at the doorstep (2-3 minute walk).

Is there a pool?

Yes, a large outdoor pool on the 7th floor. It's one of the property's highlights, though the adjacent bar/restaurant may be quiet or closed.

Are the rooms renovated?

Most rooms feel 'classic' (read: dated) with dark wood and older carpets. Don't expect the sleek grey/white aesthetic of the new Ascott Embassy.

Is it pet-friendly?

No. Unlike some other Ascott properties, this specific location strictly prohibits pets.

Tips van Insiders

  • ✨

    Use the 'St. Louis' BTS station, not Chong Nonsi—it's a newer station and much closer.

  • ✨

    The 7-Eleven next door is a lifesaver for late-night snacks and drinks.

  • ✨

    Walk to 'Soi St. Louis 3' (Sathorn Soi 11) for some of the best local street food in the business district.

5 dingen die je moet weten voordat je gaat

  • 💡The 'Gym' is currently a conference room with equipment moved into it.

  • 💡The windows are surprisingly thin for a luxury building, letting in significant street noise.

  • 💡The 'Green Leaf Spa' on-site is solid but often overlooked for fancier outside spots.

  • 💡You might get a 'cash deposit' request at check-in, which feels very budget-hotel.

  • 💡The lobby scent is a signature fragrance that some love and others find overwhelming.
