 | |  |  | Amari Watergate Hotel: Very kind staff yet low quality hotel
|  |  | |  |
I stayed at this hotel in January 2007, paying $199U.S./night, inclusive. The hotel is located near some upscale shopping stores, and is not far from the convenient Skytrain. Very pleasant and proper hotel staff and nice fresh flowers in the room, yet was surprised at how poor a few quality related things were. The hotel room floor was surprisingly dusty, with clumps in both the corners and behind the main door. Bathroom accessories were not replaced each day, but I suspect that is the case with many Thailand hotels given my experience. The telephone had a bad headset which crackled too much, so making a call was unbearable. Also, I bought dinner at the hotel’s restaurant and took it to my room to eat. Surprisingly I wasn’t allowed to take the restaurant’s silverware up to the room to eat the dinner, and was informed that it was due to “management’s concern over inventory”. So I was given cheap flimsy plastic utensils. One tip for anyone taking a taxi to the hotel from the airport: taxi’s overcharge as often as they can. The trip to the hotel from the airport should be only approximately 350 baht, plus 40 baht for the freeway’s toll. I was overcharged, paying 500 plus the 40. So it might be sensible to call ahead and ask the concierge for an idea of what you can expect to pay a taxi. Finally, make sure taxi’s use their meter; accept nothing else if they won’t use the meter, or you’ll get taken unfair advantage of. In conclusions, the hotel’s quality control seems poor overall, and so I wouldn’t recommend this hotel to others. Leave a Comment
