Trip advisor feed back on Bangkok palace...some say ok some say p!ss poor,the last 10 reviews are not good, me i would go elsewhere.
But in fairness to this hotel, it says it is Newly Refurbished, and the photos of the rooms look good, as long as they are very recent pics.
i know the part of town its in and if you like being near to the 'expressway'(you couldn't miss it when arriving from Don muang heading to Sukhumvit, sitting in gridlock watching people having their breakfast in the glass front elevated restuarant..lol) and you don't mind taking a chance... it could be for you, there are better area's.
Bangkok Palace Reviews HERE..!!
Would stay on Sukhumvit early numbered soi's, and just jump on skytrain, nice and easy with plenty of Hotels 1200baht up, bars(no not just girlie ones) restaurants, nightlife, shopping......
Agree prenders majestic suites always gets good reports.
