However, room pricing and on-site dining are expensive for Bangkok, and a few guests note minor room flaws like dated control panels and awkward shower tap placement. 2722152

- “I thought the breakfast was very delicious.” 23
- “There are small plates of food served in the lounge as well, and the selections rotate depending on the time of day. I never had a full meal - only some hors d'oeuvres at dusk - but everything I sampled was high quality.” 13
- “Huge room with great service (they clean up twice a day I think), breakfast was the best I ever had in a hotel.” 23
- “The all-day dining venue is known for its expansive breakfast buffet, widely praised by guests as one of the best in the city.” 10
- “These snacks wouldn't be sufficient, or cost effective, solutions for dinner our first night. We instead ordered a quick bite to eat from room service - in this case some Thai curried beef with rice and Chang beers, and then crashed for the night in our firm, but not uncomfortable beds.” 13
- “Red Sky at Centara Grand offers stunning Bangkok skyline views, creative cocktails, and gourmet dining-perfect for an unforgettable evening above the city lights.” 27
- “Up and Above is the hotel's breakfast buffet and all day dining spot. It's noted for its outstanding Sunday brunch buffet, as well as high tea in the afternoon, and has a small outdoor area high above Bangkok.” 4
- “The crown jewel of the Okura's dining program is Yamazato, an authentic Japanese restaurant that consistently ranks among the finest Japanese dining experiences outside Japan.” 16
- “The hotel's breakfast is buffet style, from the western food we are used to taste to the delicious Thai cooking, there are bread, desserts, fresh salads to all kinds of cooked food, and even muffins of live cooking, accompanied by a cup of fragrant and delicious food.” 5
- “Baiyoke Sky Hotel in Bangkok offers stunning city views, a revolving observation deck, rooftop bar, and multiple dining options in the heart of Pratunam.” 27
- “Elements is another stylish restaurant that has an open kitchen and deck, and serves international cuisine alongside fantastic views.” 4
- “The selection of the food was absolutely amazing, there were several types of eggs, cheese and ham platters, dim sums, fresh fruits and vegetables, delicious pastries, and fruit juices.” 11
- “The food selection served during evening cocktails and canapes was actually really good - think Salmon Tartare, Gyoza, Chicken Karaage, Miso Soup, Papaya Salad with Prawn and a most intriguing Nori Soft Bun alongside desserts such as Red Velvet Cake, Matcha Pudding and Hokkaido Cheesecake.” 2
- “Time Out tip: Japanese philosophy sits at the heart of the stay. One way to experience that is with an in-bed breakfast, where a beautifully composed spread balances colour, flavour and texture from the moment you wake up.” 1
- “For example, Yamazato (their japanese restaurant), looks gorgeous and looks out into their garden but their food is okay for tokyo.” 24
- “The hotel is particularly convenient for getting around Bangkok, as it has a direct entrance from the Ploen Chit Skytrain station, making it possible for guests to access restaurants, bars, and sights across the city with ease (the Silom area takes 20 minutes to reach by skytrain while Chatuchak Weekend Market takes 30 minutes to reach).” 4
- “not only a bar but also an outstanding rooftop restaurant where the kitchen offers wonderful food during breakfast lunch dinner and on Sundays also one of bangkok's best brunches” On camera260:16
- “We both went for the Grilled Salmon which was served alongside pickled vegetables, miso soup, steamed rice and tofu. It tasted beautiful alongside an excellent pot of green tea - but the portions are not big which made a good excuse to head towards the buffet breakfast.” 7
- “As for us, we had dinner at the signature restaurant Yamazato, famous throughout Bangkok for its delicious Japanese cuisine. It serves kaiseki, sushi, and dishes cooked on a teppanyaki grill. The quality of the products is world class, with fish imported directly from Japan.” 18
- “Located within the impressive Japanese restaurant Yamazato, located on the left hand side of the lobby, the hotel expertly serves traditional dishes inspired by Nippon. The setting is beautiful with private booths for guests or window side tables with the Bangkok sun beating down on you during the meal.” 7
- “The spread, as is typical in Southeast Asia, is quite impressive. There are buffet options for every taste, with both Western selections like waffles and crepes and freshly-made pastries, as well as Asian selections like pork filled buns, dumplings, and noodles.” 13
- “All the facilities look good but breakfast is utterly mid. The buffet option (the big one at Orchid) is overrun with kids and half the shit they make is all from prepackiging.” 24
- “The other option, Nouvelle Epoque, is terrible for breakfast if you choose the free option.” 24
- “▲ The chef will cook muffins and pancakes on the spot, super delicious!” 5
- “The seasonal six- or seven-course menus offered at Elements change regularly, so while we can't say what exactly will be available during your visit, we're confident that chef de cuisine Hans Zahner won't disappoint.” 8
- “▲ The public environment is a tall space, and it feels very good for dining!” 5
- “The hotel's Japanese restaurant is one of the city's best, earning regular Michelin praise for its traditional Kaiseki Ryori and expertly made sushi, sashimi, and teppanyaki.” 27

- “The array and display of food is phenomenal from coconut juice served in coconut shells, the fresh fruit stall-like display, to placing your order for eggs cooked your way and delivered to your table by the chef.” 21
- “All day dining with a view is available at Up & Above every day of the week, but the highlights are the Sunday brunch and The Okura afternoon tea.” 8
- “The buffet breakfast had many Western and Asian dishes, while the high tea was truly exceptional-an edible work of art.” 27
- “I think it's handily the best of the onsite breakfast options for Heritage guests.” 24
- “Up & Above Restaurant and Bar offers stunning 24th-floor skyline views, elegant Japanese-inspired design, and award-winning dining in Bangkok's Ploen Chit area.” 27
- “The buffet is good but the quality of Yamazato is far better and has a more premium and curated offering - it is just a shame that few guests seem to want to give it a go.” 7
- “Both venues provide a serene atmosphere, making breakfast a delightful part of the stay.” 22
- “Another example is Breakfast. All the facilities look good but breakfast is utterly mid.” 24
- “The hotel is really beautiful, I loved the minimalist yet elegant and luxurious style of the rooms and the restaurants.” 11
- “The breakfast at the Okura Prestige is truly amazing and would have to be one of the best hotel breakfasts I have ever encountered.” 21
- “Up & Above is an indoor/outdoor, international restaurant & terrace facing west on the 24th floor. It's perfect for a sunset cocktail, and they serve their famous Okura high-tea.” 19
- “The Okura Prestige is home to a ground-floor patisserie and three exceptional restaurants, including buzzworthy Elements and acclaimed Japanese eatery Yamazato.” 8

- “The Okura Prestige Bangkok plays it more straight and austere. However, what the hotel offers is a terrific location with direct BTS access and proximity to the main Bangkok shopping stretch, a unique breakfast experience as well as a high level of quiet and privacy.” 2
- “The buffet option (the big one at Orchid) is overrun with kids and half the shit they make is all from prepackiging.” 24

- “The room was actually incredible and the best part about the stay. I really can't think of anything that could be done better.” 24

- “Wardrobe space was also excellent in this room including proper hangers, iron and the signature yukata - though do not take this as you will be charged a fair amount of money.” 7
- “The Okura Prestige Bangkok's room is big for an urban hotel. We also got great sweeping views of Witthayu and Phloen Chit Roads and all their imminent skylines.” 29
- “Park Ventures Ecoplex, 57 Wireless Road, Lumpini, Bangkok 10330, Thailand Reserve your room while it's still available. We like the minimalist, almost contemplative feel of the lobby and the 240 rooms, and the subtle but thoughtful, often distinctly Japanese touches.” 30

- “The hard product was good. Great views and we generally enjoyed the room.” 24
- “The 240 rooms and suites are available in ten different categories, and I had the pleasure of staying in a beautiful 45m² Deluxe room. The large picture windows provide unparalleled glimpses of the city, while the interior design features a minimalist style in brown and cream tones.” 18
- “Towards the far window is a lounger with many cushions, which need to be put on the floor, but that can be used to watch the television - which like the control panel was also pretty dated and seemed to only have standard definition channels.” 7
- “The suite is spacious and beautifully laid out, with a separate living area, a large walk-in closet, and a well-designed workspace tucked neatly into the layout.” 22
- “Huge room with great service (they clean up twice a day I think), breakfast was the best I ever had in a hotel.” 23
- “Here's what made our stay truly memorable. Our Deluxe Suite at The Okura Prestige Bangkok offered what you hope for in a luxury city stay - peace, privacy, and an unbeatable view.” 22
- “My favorite place was definitely the Powder Room in the corner - it was very useful when doing my daily makeup, not to mention how beautifully decorated it was.” 11
- “Sections of the room, namely the control panel and television, could do with some updating with them feeling like they are getting a bit long in the tooth.” 7
- “The 24th-floor lobby features massive floor-to-ceiling windows, and the outdoor terrace at Up & Above Restaurant and Bar - also located on the 24th floor - is a scenic, stylish spot to snack and sip cocktails.” 8
- “The indoor area is open from 7 am to 1 am and the outdoor area is open between 6 pm - 1 am. We visited the outside terrace during sunset and absolutely loved it.” 11
- “Alongside the television features an excellent minibar selection at the usual rates as well as a Nespresso machine and selection of Japanese tealeaf alongside a pot as well as regular tea bags.” 7
- “I stayed in a Deluxe Room, which is their smallest room category (of ten choices). It was very spacious for a standard hotel room.” 19
- “About the only downside to the rooms here is the lack of any balcony or terrace in any of the room categories.” 4

- “The room rates were also very attractive for a five-star experience - you would be hard pressed to find anything that is even in the same league as what the Okura Prestige offers it's guests.” 21
- “While it may come at a premium compared to other properties in the city, the experience justifies the price... From the breathtaking views and world-class dining to the impeccable attention to detail.” 10

- “idk why their prices are so high. I was just at the four seasons otemachi bar and there prices were way more reasonable and better quality.” 24
- “All the options here are grossly overpriced for what they are.” 24
- “My plan was to order a la carte because I was excited to try the Truffle eggs benedict. It ended up being so mid and super expensive.” 24
- “Overall: I paid $320 b4 tax per night for this which was a steal. If you can get this price def book this no question. you will not get a room like this anywhere else for that much.” 24
- “Value for money for club lounge as the breakfast and evening cocktails are quite good” 14
- “While prices are high, guests generally feel the experience justifies the cost.” 23
- “Me and my SO ordered 2 udon soups (that were underflavored), and a plate of sashimi (10 pieces total), a bottle of sparkling water, and NO alcohol and it ended up costing $2-300 i can't remember the exact price.” 24
- “Many hotels near to or connected to BTS including Park Hyatt and St Regis but they are getting expensive.” 14
- “But if you are not picky about service and care more about the hard product and value the it's not a bad choice. It's significantly cheaper than other properties at this level.” 24
- “Rooms are expensive for Bangkok” 4
- “Premium pricing for the category - starting from ~$220/night, the Okura sits in the upper range of Sukhumvit-area luxury. Budget-conscious travelers can find comparable room quality at better rates with properties like Novotel Bangkok Sukhumvit 20.” 16
- “Overall: I paid $320 b4 tax per night for this which was a steal. If you can get this price def book this no question.” 24
- “For the level of quality, the pricing felt fair - especially considering the premium ingredients flown in from Japan and the detail in every dish.” 22
- “The fridge and the cabinet were packed full of goodies, but nothing other than the complimentary water was particularly cheap.” 13
- “Daily breakfasts, which were included in our room rate, were special experiences in and of themselves.” 13
- “Japanese restaurant excessively priced - not as good a value as we would have liked” 18
- “The Intercontinental Ploenchit and Intercontinental Sukhumvit are within that price range and are close to a skytrain station. I've stayed at both locations and like them both...slight preference to the Ploenchit location because it's in the area I like, between Central World and Central Chidlom.” 14
- “i disagree, Yamazato is grossly overpriced for the quality of food.” 24
- “If you travel frequently to Japan and look at Okura Bangkok at the same price, you will find the Deluxe Corner room is spacious and comfortable.” 5
View9 mentions
- “The only pity is that there is a building built right in front of me. I think it is a building that obstructs the view for the Okura Hotel!” 5
- “Swing Bar is a unique rooftop bar with views of the Giant Swing and Chinatown. The local vibe, creative drinks, and unique panorama make it the perfect spot to unwind and experience a different side of Bangkok.” 27
- “In the morning, my father and I awoke to stunning views of Bangkok. One wall was nearly entirely made of windows, and the other wall had really wide windows. It was as if we had a panorama of all the hustle and bustle of the city.” 13
- “Experience Pastel Rooftop Bar in Bangkok: stunning skyline views, Mediterranean cuisine, vibrant nightlife, and warm hospitality on Sukhumvit 11.” 27
- “As I mentioned before the view from our room was incredible as we had a full panoramic view over the Bangkok skyline. We could even see the sunset from our room which was absolutely magical!” 11
- “Experience intimate rooftop luxury at Penthouse Rooftop Bar, Park Hyatt Bangkok, with stunning skyline views and creative cocktails.” 27
- “ABar Rooftop Bangkok offers panoramic skyline views, 100+ gins, innovative cocktails, and a stylish open-air vibe atop Marriott Marquis Queen's Park.” 27
- “The terrace offers an amazing view over the Bangkok skyline, I was totally obsessed with the view!” 11
- “I'm taking -0.5 points off because the view isn't amazing. You don't really see the Tokyo Skyline like you would if you booked at competitors.” 24
Bed & Sleep5 mentions
- “The rooms are serviced daily and each day I found an origami crane left on my bed with a card that said "sleep well" which was a lovely touch.” 21
- “If you do need to get to sleep, there are excellent black out curtains and electric blinds which can be controlled by a dated control panel next to the bedside.” 7
- “The bed was massive and cloud-soft - perfect for stretching out after a long soak in one of the largest hotel bathtubs we've experienced in Bangkok.” 22
- “Starting with the queen sized bed featuring cotton sheets, the mattress itself is a little harder than in the other hotels we stayed in during our expedition to Thailand. That being said, I still slept really well and it will give your back more support than a softer mattress on offer at other hotels.” 7
- “That being said, I still slept really well and it will give your back more support than a softer mattress on offer at other hotels. We were lucky enough to be situated on the corner of the building which gave us excellent views in two directions.” 7
Noise7 mentions
- “The hotel's triple glazed windows ensure there is no street noise.” 4
- “Don Mueang Airport takes up to 45 minutes to reach by taxi, depending on traffic. There are 240 rooms at the Okura Prestige Bangkok, and they all offer outstanding panoramic city views, with large triple glazed windows in each room blocking out noise and heat.” 4
- “It's best to stick to the skytrain here, as the traffic in this neighborhood is horrific, especially at rush hour, making it a real hassle for those who opt for taking taxis.” 4
- “One standout feature is the triple-glazed windows, which completely insulate against Bangkok's noise and heat. It ensures a peaceful night's sleep even in the heart of the city.” 10
- “The club lounge is by no means as dramatic as the athletic spaces, but it does offer a quiet, comfortable place to do work, have a drink, and take in the experience of being 33 stories up in Bangkok. The views up here are even better!” 13
- “Each course arrived beautifully plated, with a quiet confidence that didn't overcomplicate the flavours.” 22
- “The high-floor location allows guests to enjoy a quiet living environment.” 5
Bathroom16 mentions
- “The shower itself was nice. There were two heads, a rain spout mounted on the ceiling a” 13
- “The bathroom stood out. It had a deep granite soaking tub, a separate rainfall shower with skyline views, and high-tech Japanese washlets, making it feel like a spa.” 27
- “Water pressure was excellent and the temperatures could get pretty warm without scalding.” 13
- “Above: The 55-square-metre room is big and cosy, with a Japanese-style modern bathroom and toilet, and Yukata for two.” 29
- “After being whisked from the lobby on the 24th floor to our room on the 30th we were greeted with in-room fruit and flowers, huge triple paned windows overlooking the Bangkok skyline, a bathroom with a high intensity waterfall rain shower and separate tub and, something I had not experienced before, a separate, electric Japanese style bidet and toilet. (It really is pretty amazing!)” 15
- “The bathroom was huge for two people, they had a walk in closet, they have little pre-done souvenirs that you can take home to your friends and family, they had all the amenities you could ever ask for (i know this is usual for japan but they even had skincare products which imo was above and beyond).” 24
- “The design of the bathroom was unique, but functional. By default, the room is open to the rest of the living area, but you can slide massive bamboo doors to close it up. Amazingly, the room doesn't lose it's airy feel.” 13
- “The elegant room displays Japanese accents everywhere - from the superb bathroom to the autumn leaf-patterned carpet, the yukata, and even the provided Sencha tea.” 18
- “The lighting in the bathroom was fairly good, although I would have liked it a touch brighter for doing my makeup.” 21
- “The bathroom had a separate shower, spacious bathtub and the toilet had it's own room with a Japanese style bidet with various functions.” 21
- “The first area was the wetroom featuring a bath, with excellent views across the city skyline, dual rainfall, and handheld shower. It's a large space with plenty of space to move around whilst in the wetroom - although you will want to close the blind if you don't want the people in the bank building opposite to see you naked.” 7
- “The shower toiletries were by Aromatherapy Associates, and like the hotel itself, they smelled fresh and fabulous without being overpowering.” 13
- “From the simple bamboo finishes and clean lines and sliding doors, to the smart toilet (i.e. it has an auto-bidet feature) and a digital room manager (everything in the room - the temperature, the lighting, the shades, and so on - was controlled electronically) and blazingly fast wifi, you get the best of all worlds: style, practicality, and comfort.” 13
- “The hairdryer was powerful enough for my liking (I am very fussy on this matter), so I was happy to leave my hairdryer in my suitcase.” 21
- “More interesting is the decision to install a Toto Washlet - the makers of the famed and advanced Japanese toilets. I won't go into detail, but this is the future and wish that they would take off in other parts of the world - a heated toilet would go down equally well in the middle of winter in Sapporo or Southend-on-Sea.” 7
- “Other than that, it was spacious and clean, and that's what I care about the most in a shower.” 13
