I stayed at this hotel for the first time over Songkran. At check-in, standard rooms were occupied so gave me a suite on the 30th floor. Rooms were not particularly large but reasonably comfortable. Living room had a L-shaped sofa, small desk, and table with chair, bathroom had separate tub and walk-in shower. Also included a small kitchenette. I brought girls up all 4 nights without any interruptions from the staff. Wired internet access was 500 baht for each 24 hour period, and not very fast. Didn't try the breakfast.

I dont know about the Sofitel on Suk, but my dad still raves about him and my mom's stay at the one on Silom...I swear he talks about it all the time 6 years later...
it was an incredible value at the time, like 75 bucks a night...of course it was like 41 baht to dollar then.....
A funny story about that....My parents gave me a key card and me and mrs atl (GF at the time) were supposed to met my parents there after they went shopping and what not...well we got to their room and thought we had like a good 30 minutes before my folks got back and we were getting pretty randy...not f***ing yet but she was rapping on my microphone and we hear the key card going in and start scrambling....
They walk in as I am pulling up my pants, mrs atl is still embarrased about that

I've stayed at the Silom hotel a few times. Enjoyed the cigar lounge on the 2nd floor. As I recall, paid 2600/night, but I believe they've raised their rates significantly since. Don't think they're guest friendly anymore either. Can't really compare the rooms since I just stayed in the deluxe room on Silom.
BTW, I booked the Grand Sukhumvit during the 3-day Accor blowout sale in Febuary and paid 6200 baht total for 4 days.

Grand Sukhumvit (I think formally Sofitel), offers excellent value imo. Located less than 5 minutes walk from Nana BTS, fairly modern rooms, friendly staff and good rates. If you book 1 month in advance you will get a good room rate and an almost certain upgrade in room class. Also 100% girl friendly. However, I was pissed off when I checked out.... there were about 4 other people at the desk and the girl asked me if I had had anything from the mini bar. I replied just a water (as girl had taken mini bar water instead of comp... which always f***s me off).... after the usual phone up to the maid... she says with a smile/smug look... you take condom as well. The other people at the desk smirk in my direction, and I actually think about complaining as I was pretty embarrassed. However, having thought about it - I put it down to ignorance (I would like to think).

Means nothing in Thailand, and to Thais -- I would have just smiled and made a joke. It's western judeo-christian 'sensibilities' that cause such reactions.

Sorry, I should have made clear that the four other people at the desk were on my side, ie. two woman checking out, another woman waiting for something and another guy. It was the smirks from them that I felt embarrassed about - not for hotel staff to advertise to all and sundry what I have been doing...

Just got an email from a visitor mentioning that this hotel is not guest friendly. They are charging 1,000 B joiner fees.

I've stayed here a dozen times and was never charged a joiner. Last time was about a year ago, however. Are you sure they weren't referring to the Sofitel on Silom Road?

Maybe the joiner fee was for ladyboys.  I do recall my friend telling me of his friends' experience with ladyboys and joiner fees in some hotel along Sukhumvit. No problems for girls.

Watch out for the Friday night seafood buffet. I got food poising from the raw oysters. I didn't bother complaining to the staff but they voluntarily took the charge off my bill at checkout so they must have had a lot of complaints. I violently threw-up in front of Times Square  It was very embarassing, women and children were screaming.
