Floral Shire Resort
I had booked 1 room at Floral Shire Resort, Bangkok, after checking out their online photos and some of the reviews. When I was booking the room, I thought that the resort will be a good stopover for me and my family at Bangkok and will be good for us to go round the city as it was near to some of the places we wanted to visit. The place offered free airport pickup which was an added bonus.
Our dreams were really crushed once we reached the place and saw the behaviour of the hotel staff. The place is a resort in name only. When we reached the resort, which is situated in one of the narrow lanes of Bangkok city, we were really disappointed to see that the whole place is a down-trodden place with the furniture in a bad state, the wall paper peeling off etc. That place has had not undergone maintenance for years altogether.
The staff was not cooperative and did not bother to help us with our luggage. The bellboy was rude and kept muttering under his breath when we specifically asked him to help us with the luggage. I guess they are all looking to the tipped, in advance, to provide any kind of service to you.
I went to check the restaurant so that we could have breakfast there. The place, probably had served hot breakfast. But when I went in there, there were only some leftovers with no one bothered to refilling them, even after requesting them to do so. Well, we ended up having only slices of bread with butter and some coffee.
We headed to our room and crashed immediately as we were all very tired from the journey etc. The room was alright (neat and clean). When we woke up around 3 PM, we wanted to have some tea in the room. There was only 1 tea bag and 2 sachets of sugar. When we requested the person to give us a couple more tea bags, they made a frowning face and handed 1 more as if we were asking for alms from them.
This was the last nail in the coffin, so to speak. I immediately went online on my phone and booked another room at Novotel, Sukhumvit 20, and caught a taxi and moved to that hotel.
We had paid for this hotel for 4 days and 3 nights in advance. But we really did not want to spend another minute with them. We relayed our feedback to the ladies in the front office, but they were least bothered about it.
Even my little one was happy at the change of venue and she loved the new place at Novotel.
Please do not book yourself a room at this hotel, unless you have a lot of patience in you.

Accommodation and facilities:
Отель хорошо подходит для ночевки после или перед перелетом в Бангкок. Расположен в тихом переулке, 10 минут до перекрестка с магазинами Family Mart и 7/11. Удобная кровать, прекрасный душ, целых две раковины - в санузле и в комнате за перегородкой у окна. Есть фен, ТВ, чайник и кондиционер. Плотные светонепроницаемые шторы на окнах. Возьмите с собой беруши - решение от звука самолетов. Хороший завтрак (накрывают с 7 утра) - шведский стол, включающий как европейские предпочтения (хлопья, выпечка, сосиски, молоко, масло и т.п.), так и тайские блюда - суп, жареная лапша, овощи. После завтрака нас бесплатно отвезли в аэропорт, это приятный подарок от отеля. Минибас ходит раз в час, чтобы попасть на него, нужно накануне успеть записаться на ресепшн (в машине 10 или 12 мест). Да, нет лифта, но чемодан на ваш этаж поднимет портье. Не стоит придираться к мелочам вроде не самого свежего ремонта в отеле или слегка поцарапанного столика, и тогда это прекрасный вариант за данные деньги.

Service was ok. Not that excellent. And I don t know why they called resort coz it s just an apartment. No elevator, so if you have a big baggage, you might get struggle for that.
