Lebua At State Tower, Bangkok, Thailand - Reviews and Hotel Information

We stayed for 5 days in all, split into 2 visits (went to Ko Samet in between). Met by hotel staff at the airport - BEFORE Immigration - literally, as we got off the plane, which was a very welcome surprise. They took our passports, gave us hot face towels, took us thru' Immigration and got our luggage from the carousel. Then escorted us to our Limo. This cost 75 Dollars and makes one feel very special. I felt like a rock star. Hotel was spectacular. We wre accompanied to our room by the delightful Vicky, who checked us in to the room, unlocked the balcony window (what a view of the river! - Get a River View Suite; it's worth the few extra Baht). We had a 57th floor room (all are above 52 floors). Staff are so attentive, greeting you in the lift lobby, calling the lift for you, asking which floor and even pressing the button for you!

Didn't use the pool, but it looked nice, 'though it could do with a glass rather than brick wall around it.

Breeze and Sirocco are fantastic, romantic, great views, impeccable service, really good food. Wine is very expensive (i believe thre's nearly 400 percent import duty on wine). Expect to pay 3000-4000 Baht (£60+) for a bottle of Jacobs Creek-style wine. Half-decent Burgundy will set you back about 7000 Baht (£120 ish). You can get away with maybe £150-200 and have a very good meal at Breeze. Or spend £7000 (yes, really, seven grand Sterling) on a bottle of Petrus at Sirocco. Choice is yours, but it's so worth it, whatever you do.

Sky Bar is spectacular, but you wouldn't spend all night there - great for a pre-dinner drink or two - again, not cheap, 'though clearly it depends upon what you choose to drink, but it's a fine place and the view is worth the cost.

On balance, I'd say this is the best hotel I've ever stayed in - in terms of service, value-for-money (rooms are great value) location (see below). We spent a total of 70,000 Baht (£1500) for 5 nights including one dinner at Sirocco and one at Breeze - which account for £600.

We will for sure be going back to Bangkok and will stay at the State Tower - it makes one feel so well looked after - honoured, even, to be there.

Great location - walking distance to Oriental or Taksin Piers - and Taksin or Surasak Sky Train. Service is outstanding. Views are incomparable. Facilities in rooms are great - Bedroom and Living Room, huge bathroom with walk-in shower, balcony, big TV and DVD player. Huge beds, very firm. Good sound insulation (know what I mean?) If you go during Loi Krathong (November) you'll get the best view of the fireworks. Bangrak is fun - and Robinson's department store close if you need bits and pieces.
