R
ecently we had the pleasure of
staying at the AETAS Hotel in
Bangkok, ideally located in the centre
of Bangkok’s shopping, business
and diplomatic districts. AETAS is a family
owned company that has two hotels, AETAS
Bangkok and AETAS Lumpini as well as the
AETAS Residence, which are their serviced
apartments for longer stays.
AETAS Bangkok and AETAS Residence are
across the street from one another on Soi
Ruamrudee and very near the Conrad Hotel.
The hotel offers five different room types;
their superior rooms are 35 sqm’s and
offer modern amenities such as IP phones,
IPTV along with ironing boards with irons.
Deluxe rooms are a little larger at 46 sqm’s
and offer panoramic views of the city a long
with extras such as a large high-def LCD TV
and a well-furnished mini bar.
We stayed in one of their Executive Suites
and found them spacious at 68 sqm’s. The
lounge had tastefully designed furniture, a
large and comfortable work station, (with
plenty of plugs for all of our devices), a
comfortable sofa and armchairs plus a large
LCD TV. The separate bedroom comes with
another LCD TV, several roomy closets and a
handy dresser. The bathroom is quite large
and features a separate rain shower with
adjustable jets, and a stand-alone bathtub.
There was also an additional half bath which
was located by the entry hall off of the
lounge.
The Hotel’s Governor Suite is larger still
at 118 sqm’s and is outfitted more like a
serviced apartment with a kitchen that
features a refrigerator, microwave and
sink. Views are great in these suites with
panoramic views of Bangkok from both the
bedroom and bathroom.
When you’re truly in the mood to pamper
yourself then the 200 sqm Presidential Suite
awaits. The suite is split on two floors and
includes a very spacious living room and
dining room with a beautiful glass dining
table accommodating up to ten people.
The high windows with remote-controlled
curtains offer panoramic views of Bangkok
and direct access to the private terrace and
outdoor Jacuzzi. Next to the dining room
is a very convenient and fully-equipped
kitchen should you wish to have your meals
prepared within your suite. An electric
double glass door leads into the large
bedroom with its adjoining living room
and a second Jacuzzi with adjustable jets is
available in the spacious bathroom.
When staying at AETAS I highly recommend
you upgrade to Club AETAS. Club
privileges always get you complimentary
evening cocktails but here you also
receive complimentary afternoon tea
from 2:00 pm. – 3:30 pm, complimentary
