The Landmark Hotel


The Landmark Hotel

Located on Sukhumvit Road, right in the main tourist area, The Landmark is an hotel offering five-star facilities and services for both leisure and business travellers. With a station of the Skytrain located in front of the hotel, The Landmark Bangkok is conveniently linked to the city's main commercial district and many of its leading tourist attractions. It also enjoys easy access to Bangkok's major conferences centres, the Queen Sirikit National Convention Center (QSNCC) and Bangkok International Trade and Exhibition Centre (BITEC). Nearby is the expressway to the domestic and international airports. Your perfect address in Bangkok.

At The Landmark, we have a choice of accommodation to suit your style and personality. From beautifully furnished superior rooms and newly created Junior Suites to the Superior rooms of our exclusive Landmark club, complete with its private lounge and Boardroom. All of our guestrooms and Suites now offer broadband internet access.

The above is what The Landmark says about itself, the location of the Hotel is perfect, as you can see from one of my pictures, its right next to the Skytrain and only one stop from the Subway.

Unfortunately the cheapest room is around $60 a night, which while cheap in the UK, is expensive when considering the competition in Bangkok. The rooms are OK, very clean and functional, not the biggest i've stayed in, but fine. Breakfast is extra, and at $11 per head is very expensive, you get what you pay for. This is the best breakfast in Bangkok, real sausage and real bacon, plus baked beans.

Underneath The Landmark is the Huntsman Bar, a british style pub, that always as a group on in the evening, and many ex-pats in there, again its amongst the most expensive bars in Bangkok.

The pool is alright, but the pool area is a small. The large Jacuzzi is very good, you can also use the Fitness First Gym on the fourth floor.

My rating for The Landmark is 6/10, dont get me wrong, its a very nice Hotel, but your probaly paying double what you you pay for a comparable Hotel only a few hundred metre away.

Did you also notice the fleet of Pick ups waiting to take Jackies shopping to the Airport.
