December 22, 20241 yr I've been to Bangkok loads of times but never stayed in the Rose Hotel, off Surawong. Is it ok? Is it happy with joiners? I'm trying to be a bit more economical, having spent too much in the past.

December 23, 20241 yr Joiners no problem. Rooms large and comfortable, but dated. The biggest pluses are cost, location, and the pool. I'll be back there next week!
December 27, 20241 yr I’m at the Rose Residence right now and it is nice, a little jaded luxury in parts but the pool is indeed lovely. Note my bf is not happy with the small gym, I’m am not a gym bunny so can’t comment. The Rose Hotel is next door and looks quite shabby and as it had a lot of windows open I assume no aircon…
December 27, 20241 yr Author Thank you everyone. I think I'll give the Rose a try next time. 56Surawong is ok though lower rooms can be noisy at night (traffic and taking the market down) and I had to move to a room in the centre of the building to get wi fi that worked.

December 28, 20241 yr I may have been mistaken over all these years but I had assumed it was a LoSo hotel for the lady bars.

He had a reservation, but they denied it, and said they were full! Makes your point. We ended up at Mango Tree.
December 28, 20241 yr Yes - staying at the residence right now and the restaurant appears to be open, haven’t tried it but looks to be operational.

I have pleasure of being on their opening day in July 2023. Yes , it's Park Silom. Foodland there is busier than one in Patpong but I like Patpong one, menu and prices the same but better people watching venue , specially after bars start closing
December 29, 20241 yr On 12/28/2024 at 7:06 AM, vinapu said: last time I was there definitely aircon was working Yes, I since noticed the windows in the front of the building have visible aircon units and the windows were shut. It was the rooms at the back that you can see from the Rose Residence pool that had the windows open. Maybe those aren’t actually the hotel or they have cheaper non-aircon rooms as well? That said if the Residence is in your budget I’d highly recommend there, very comfortable and quiet given how close to all the action it is.
December 29, 20241 yr The price of the rose residence seems to have gone up a huge amount since I was there. It was about $60 a night but now seems to be $120. They were having construction work nearby before so maybe was why it was so cheap last summer. I would highly recommend it.

The work is close to the Rose Residence.
