    Update on this after a recent stay, I was in the building with the reception,  you do not need to go past reception  just turn left when through the main door and free access to the lifts, so guests arriving own their own or if you are bringing someone back don't even get noticed.
    Rooms are spacious beds are huge i was on the 14th floor over looking the pool area, Huge Glass window, safe in room, good shower plenty of hot/cold water and good power , location just off soi 11 is great no noticeable noise although i wasn't an early bedder so couldn't comment on noise levels between 10.00 & 03.00. Very Clean and tidy good room service, with buttons on inside to request room service or do not disturb no need to faf about with cards on door handles which some smart arse usually pulls of anyway thinking they are funny. Roof top bar is very nice, i didn't get down to the pool or use the Gym but both looked more that adequate for a short stay.
    I would definitely stay here again only niggles to note -small lampshade low down above the middle of the bed headboard is a nuisance kept banging my head off it and the position/height of the towel rail in the bathroom is dangerous as i cut my head on it getting off the toilet (sober) and i am off average height.

    https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/8-ways-to-boost-testosterone#1.-Exercise-and-Lift-Weights
    "Exercise is one of the most effective ways to prevent many lifestyle-related diseases. Interestingly, it can also boost your testosterone.
    A large review study found that people who exercised regularly had higher testosterone levels. In the elderly, exercise increases testosterone levels, fitness and reaction time (15Trusted Source, 16Trusted Source)."
    I concur as well,  I recently started exercising again, I find it easier to get hard on nowadays   
    Best of all, it is free

    1 - Stumble Inn good atmosphere and play a good mix of good music
    2- Fitzgeralds ( hanrahanns) - Love the breakfast and just watching it all warming up
    3- Hooters - not because of the bar just like grabbing a stool at the front and watching the action from the other side of the road.

    Stayed her recently for 3 nights, first time sating soi 11 and thought the location was great easy access to everywhere, 15/20 minute walk to soi 4 and easy access to soi 10 and CIB over the foot bridge, a lot going on with building works on the soi but not an issue certainly no noise could be heard from the Hotel rooms and even lying by the pool  was peaceful. 
    Rooms are big an well appointed nice sofa by the window , great big beds comfortable and good mattress, in room safe, white robe and asylum slippers, mini bar was disappointing, in fact non existent only complimentary bottles of water  replaced daily otherwise empty. Big walk in shower plenty of room for sharing, bathroom on a whole is big, good bum gun, only thing i didn't like was the toilet flusher was on the left hand side low down on the toilet which means bending over the used toilet to flush which is a bad design.
    Good Gym with plenty equipment for a short stay but would not be much good if you were into heavy lifting dumbells only go up to 20KG, Pool/bar area is a good size and although a few people using it could always get a bed/chair to sit back and be amused by the Chinese trying to swim, presume they don't have a kids swim programme back home never seen anything like it.
    Access to floors is card only via the lift, no issues with guests and ID never taken although i did meet all my guests in the lobby if i wasn't arriving back with them, very busy Hotel with plenty of people coming and going so if you want privacy when bring back your guests you wont get it here.
    Enjoyed my time here and would definitely stay again, i didn't get the chance to go to the Bars or Nightclubs so couldn't comment on them but defiantly a lot going on in this area and a Hilary 3 straight across from the hotel.

    I've stayed there many times and have always found it good value for money. Rooms are spacious, beds large and extremely comfortable, bathrooms adequate. Below some pics of the room featuring Ming as a willing participant to brighten it up a little
     
    If I stay in the soi 11 area my preferred hotel nowadays is Fraser Suites. Large modern rooms, decent swimming pool, great rooftop bar (Above 11) for only a little bit more money than the likes of Mercure.

    Stayed here for 3 nights from 15 to 18th Nov.
    New Hotel and all rooms as pictures, clean spacious and well equipped, Hot water was a bit random at times and Air con  seemed to be at a constant output no matter what temperature i changed it to, but it wasn't an issue although at time slightly cooler would have been better.
    I have previously stayed  soi 18 but wanted to be closer to the action and this certainly gives you that, i had inquired about guest/ladyboy policy prior to booking and as was stated no joiner fees or ladboy policy, although additional guest would be charged for, but this was easy to get around as i will mention in my trip report.
    This is a joint hotel with IBIS on the other side which is quite a bit cheaper but i did not like the look of the rooms, The Pool/ Roof Top bar and Gym are shared with Ibis & Novotel and i was concerned that the Pool are would be overcrowded but it was not a problem any time i used it.
    Only slight niggle was the fact that you had to use your key card in the lift to access your floor, i only came down to meet one guest as the others arrived with me but you can get free Access to floor 24 and go up a small flight of stairs which takes you to roof bar/pool (floor 25) so if you wanted to meet here it would not be an issue.
    I would definitely stay here again the ambiance and views from the roof bar at night are great and less than a 5 minute walk from Nana and chaos 9.
