Park Royal Suites (formerly Phachara Suites)

I have a trip coming up very soon and I was considering this place. I hope somebody who has stayed there recently can offer their thoughts. 

I stayed there many times when it was Phachara Suites and had some of my most rewarding LB adventures there with Sofie and Jam when they were new on the scene (see below) and several others.  It really did offer the best combo of location, large comfortable suites, huge balconies, jacuzzi bathtubs and a quality pool. I hope things have not changed. Thanks in advance.

Hi,

stayed there already 3 trips this year, 4th also booked there.(December)

usually book the suites, so that i dont have the noise from the hallway when want to sleep out. 
No issues bringing in a LB or even 2. Staff is friendly, rooms are clean.

minus is that the internet is not always top speed. 
pool is still there and nice to relax.

No info on the jacuzzi bath.

enjoy your stay !

Thank you for the info. It sounds like things haven't changed much at all. 

I had forgotten about wi-fi issues. I remember on the upper floors, suites with bedrooms and balconies facing north toward Sukhumvit had problems no doubt caused by the distance to the modems, but if you moved to the living room or kitchen of your room the connectivity improved markedly, so that's not a deal killer. 

Like I said in the OP, for sex tourists it's hard to beat the combination of location and size of the suites. I have had many great LB adventures there in the past. I'm sure I have lost a step when it comes to avoiding getting my ass run over from behind by speeding moto taxis and cars while walking on Soi 6 at night, but that's a chance I am willing to take. Thanks again.
