Our stay at the Hilton Sukhumvit was exceptional on every level. Several days after checking out I was asked to complete a quick on-line survey rating my stay. When completed I was asked if I would like to share my experience on Trip Advisor which I happily did. When finished and sent I looked at other Trip Advisor comments about the Hotel and was pleased to see that while almost everyone raved about the hotel the majority of the comments were about the staff and how great they were to interact with, which totally mirrored our experience.
