Bangkok Marriott Marquis Queen's Park

This is our go to hotel when we visit family in Bangkok, it is clean and comfortable. The staff are very friendly and accommodating, after speaking casually with the head chef Michael a year ago for twenty minutes or so he recognized us this time, it was like meeting a old friend. Conveniently located near major shopping and just a train ride away from most anyplace we want to go. The BTS is literally a walk in the park away from the hotel which is accessible by a back entrance to the hotel. We always get the breakfast buffet as part of our room. The restaurant is known among locals as the best buffet in Bangkok.

This is a huge hotel with over 1000 rooms. The lobby was grand and impressive. Due to its size, you can feel the atmosphere can be impersonal. Too many people walking around at all times in the common area. So you don’t get the warmth hospitable Thai staff greeting you a welcome even when you enter the hotel. Rooms are nicely designed. The bathrooms are on the small side for deluxe rooms and ceilings are very low. Guess they want to allot more space to the bedroom living area, which is generous and has nice views on higher floors. Despite the crowd in the lobby, rooms level are quiet and cosy. The location is about a 6 minutes walk to the BTS station and emQuartier mall via a cut through the adjacent park. Very convenient. However do bear in mind, the park will close around 9-10pm so then u will have to take a long detour to enter hotel from front entrance. Pool is quite small for a hotel this huge, but the gym was well equipped and good. Breakfast at hotel has a wide selection. But I do not like that the pancakes, waffles and eggs are precooked to save time. So they are cold and taste stale. All in all a good stay, will be back!

Convenient location for us for the weekend

Great stay

Slow check-in, malfunctioning elevators (need to swipe room card and press floor button multiple times before it would light), no bidet in toilet. Nice club on 27th floor w excellent food.
