    Cheers guys. much appreciated. I read Saxons post but thought it might have been renovated since then. Current pics posted on travel sites look a tad different hence the my question. 
    I like the new pics and the rates are really good. Thank you again.

    For Thai food, I'd recommend Suda.
    It's in a little side road opposite Terminal 21, very reasonably priced. Always a bit of a "TripAdvisor darling" type of place. Like most places, they were on their arse during the pandemic but starting to pick up again now. I remember going there to eat in 2020 just after restaurants had been allowed to reopen again and the owner and staff were so happy to see me, like they hadn't seen a customer in a while. Very popular with tourists, but not so much the locals.

    If you're staying around Asok area, a few I'd recommend 
    Red Lion - Soi 13. They do a build your own breakfast option for a cpl of hundred baht, choose 6-7 items
    Sportsman - Soi 13. Best Sports bar in BKK imho, they have 2 different Full English options, one of them is pretty big.
    Bullys - Between Soi 2-4 on Sukhumvit Rd. Recently reopened in a smaller unit, well kitted out though. Haven't tried breakfast yet but the other food has been decent.
    If you go one stop further on the BTS to Phrom Pong, you've got Royal Oak and Robin Hood as well.

    Actually, Galleria 10 does have balconies on lower floors. Below pic is from a few years ago. We were on the 2nd floor (1st floor UK) as I recall.

    Galleria 10 is a perfectly good hotel with good proximity to CIB, but there are better hotel options in that area. For instance, Adelphi Suites on Soi 8 is also a 5 minute walk from CIB and there are several restaurants, laundries and legit massage places within a stones throw. On Soi 13 is  Radisson / In Residence, which has balconies and a large, fine pool on the roof. It's a 7 or 8 minute stroll from CIB.

    The only Hotel I can think of with both a swimming pool (small pool just a bit bigger than  galleria 10) and a balcony that I’ve stayed at is @Mind Suites in On Nut where I’ve stayed a few times, taking a one bedroom suite.
    Here’s my review from the hotel section

    Not sure I’d call it a pool as it was more like a bath last time I stayed there. 
    Decent enough rooms and good location

    Indigo Hotel on Wireless Road, has balconies, beautiful pool upstairs with bar and restaurant above, good gym. Very nice area (opposite US Ambassador’s house).
    Guest friendly. Only issue is that it is 10-15mins walk to Soi 4.
    I’m going to give Novotel Soi 4 a try this time. Will be interesting to compare.
