    Hey Scoobie do you know what the suites sre like there? I always stay

    in the deluxe suites in the Grand but they are starting to be very dated and dirty!

     

    I agree the grand is becoming quite dated , except of course for the new upgraded rooms in the lower floors of tower 2 ,

    And has tired and trampled breakfast , busy lobby , poor facilities ....

    But my purpose of staying at either place is not for a holiday experience , where breakfast and facilities matter .

    Its the mongering experience ...Price , cleanliness , room size , and location.

    Both hotels are LB friendly and I have never had a problem with multiple guests.

    It was purely the recent price jump at the grand that caused me to switch to the Royal

    I have not yet stayed in the suites in the Royal . Just a standard or deluxe , depending on the deals at the time .

    But I find the hotels are pretty much the same vintage , Royal slightly less dated ... maybe ?

    Main difference is Royal being on soi 15 , is less busy, and more “private “ without the crowds hanging outside clubs and restaurants like you get on 11 .

    But some mongrels might prefer that !!

    Yes stayed there 2 days ago ... standard room , but it was good . Nice little mini mart off lobby .. but of a walk to Sukhumvit on narrow soi 15 , but can cut over to 13 next to 7/11 .

    I use the Royal for one nighters often .

    Kinda like the grand president before the upgrades ... but still nicer than the tower 1 in the grand and much cheaper . For the price ... it’s ok
