| Large Hotel with Friendly Staff |
| My husband and I stayed at the Asia Hotel for 6 days a few years ago. The neighborhood is very interesting but it is not close to the major tourists sites. However, everything is easy to get to by either taking the local busses (crowded), a regular taxi or a tuk-tuk. The restaurants serve good food and there was a non-smoking section in the lobby floor restaurant. The room we had was clean, furnished nicely and had a view of the swimming pool. There were very friendly staff who helped us plan fun things to do, including a visit to the floating markets and a dinner and Thai dance show performance. The outdoor food markets are interesting and plentiful. Yes, it was very hot and lots of car exaust, but there is so much to see and do which helps you overlook it all. Once inside this hotel, though, you can relax, enjoy the surroundings--even go shopping in their shops. They have lovely jewelry for sale, for example. We rate this hotel an 8. Its better for the mature traveller than back packers, budget conscious or adverturesome types. |
