Bangkok, the bustling capital of Thailand, captivates travelers with its busy street markets, vibrant nightlife, and historic temples. From historic palaces to incredible street food, Bangkok’s dynamic energy and rich heritage make it a must-visit destination for those looking for a real adventure.

The city keeps bringing me back — my most recent trip was my fifth time visiting the city in the last 3 years. On this trip, I had just 1 night in Bangkok, so I wanted to take it easy and unwind before my flight to Kuala Lumpur the following day.

After some deliberation, I decided to book a hotel that would allow me to spend my last day in Thailand relaxing. I chose the Hyatt Place Bangkok Sukhumvit as I stayed at the property several times last year and had a great experience each time.

However, this was my first time staying at the property as a World of Hyatt Globalist member, so I was hoping for a nice suite and a comfortable stay.

Read on for my full review of the Hyatt Place Bangkok Sukhumvit and why you should consider this property if you travel to Bangkok.

Booking the Hyatt Place Bangkok Sukhumvit

Since I had decided on the Hyatt Place Bangkok Sukhumvit for my 1-night stay, I headed to Hyatt’s website to see what cash rates for the property were, a necessary first step before deciding whether to pay with cash or to redeem World of Hyatt points.

Cash rates were around ฿3,575, or about $98, including taxes and fees.

Paying Cash vs. Using Points

The Hyatt Place Bangkok Sukhumvit is a Category 1 Hyatt property, meaning that award nights start at 3,500 points per night (off-peak) and can be as high as 6,500 points per night (peak). Since it was the standard season, the hotel could be booked for 5,000 points per night.

According to our valuations, World of Hyatt points are worth 1.5 cents per point, making 5,000 points worth $75. Using World of Hyatt points for this 1-night stay would have been a great use of points; however, I decided against doing so. I usually save my World of Hyatt points for hotels that are much more expensive to get much more value out of my points.


Hot Tip:

I booked a (1) Standard King (No Sofa Bed) room, the cheapest one available. Having stayed at the property several times last year and being upgraded without asking, I was confident I would get upgraded to a nicer room this time around for being a World of Hyatt Globalist member.

The total for my stay was just about $98, including taxes and fees.

As with all my Hyatt stays, I used The World of Hyatt Credit Card for payment, as it earns up to 9x points total for Hyatt stays: 4x Bonus Points at Hyatt hotels and 5x Base Points as a World of Hyatt member.

Hyatt Place Bangkok Sukhumvit Location

The Hyatt Place Bangkok Sukhumvit is located on Soi 24 in the nightlife and shopping district of Sukhumvit. The property is a 4-minute walk to the Phrom Phong BTS SkyTrain station, which can connect you to the rest of Bangkok.

Nearby attractions include 3 world-class shopping malls: Emporium, EmQuartier, and EmSphere. The famous Bhiraj Tower is a 10-minute walk from the property.

Getting There

The Hyatt Place Bangkok Sukhumvit is a 45-minute drive from Bangkok’s Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK).

If you are arriving from Don Mueang International Airport (DMK), Bangkok’s smaller airport, the journey also takes approximately 45 minutes by car.

You can also reach the property using public transportation. As long as you can connect to the BTS Skytrain, getting to the Hyatt Place Bangkok Sukhumvit is easy.

Check-In

I arrived at the Hyatt Place Bangkok Sukhumvit around 7:30 a.m., well before the hotel’s official check-in time of 3 p.m. I proceeded straight to the hotel entrance.

I entered the hotel at ground level and took the elevator up 1 level to the lobby and check-in counters.

Upon exiting the elevator, I was greeted by intriguing artwork featuring a prominently displayed rooster across the hall — odd choice for an art piece, in my opinion.

The check-in desks were conveniently located directly to the left of the art piece.

I was warmly greeted by a courteous front desk agent who requested my identification to locate my reservation. The agent expressed gratitude for my Hyatt Globalist status and welcomed me back to the property.

As I arrived at the property before 7:30 a.m., my room was not ready for check-in. However, the front desk agent informed me that my room would be available around 10 a.m., considerably earlier than the official check-in time of 3 p.m.

The agent told me I could wait in the lobby until the room was ready. However, I did a quick tour of the lobby before heading out to breakfast.

After returning to the hotel after breakfast, I went to the check-in desk to inquire if my room was ready. The front agent informed me that it was and that my bag had already been sent up.

She also informed me that the hotel had upgraded me to a King Suite with a sofa bed and that she noted a 4 p.m. checkout, a benefit of Hyatt Globalist status.

She then handed me the room keys and 2 drink vouchers for being a Hyatt elite member. These vouchers were good for drinks at AIRE BAR or The Market.

Elite Benefits

As a World of Hyatt Globalist, I was entitled to several enhanced benefits, including:

  • Free daily breakfast
  • 4 p.m. late checkout upon request
  • Upgrade to best room, up to standard suites
  • Club lounge access (when available)

Lobby

After completing the check-in process without receiving any room keys, I explored the lobby to see what amenities it offered.

A small seating area was directly across from the check-in area. It consisted of a 3-person sofa, a couple of armchairs, and a central coffee table with an elegant rug.

Another seating section was to the left of the initial seating area, divided by a wall. This area boasted several armchairs, 2 wooden side tables, and a round rug.

The right wall had a massive bookshelf adorned with various Thai artifacts, antiques, and books. The bookshelf was visually appealing and added to the ambiance of the lobby.

The lobby restaurant, Gallery Lobby, was to the left of the second seating section. I’ll expand more on this in the Food and Beverage section.

A small bar was around the corner from the check-in desk. The back wall behind the bar featured an attractive display of various liquors, which added to the space’s ambiance.

The hotel provided complimentary infused water in glass dispensers for guests to enjoy. I found this necessary as the temperature was above 95 degrees at 7 a.m.

The Market, a common feature in Hyatt Place hotels, was to the right of the check-in desk.

The hotel had 2 sets of elevators: a “Low Zone” lift serving floors 1 to 19 and a “High Zone” lift for higher guest floors and access to the AIRE BAR.

Bottom Line:

Overall, the hotel lobby was relatively small and intimate. However, the thoughtful furniture and design elements truly elevated the different seating sections. Despite its smaller size, the lobby never felt overly crowded.

Living Room

Despite having stayed at this hotel previously, it was my first time as a Hyatt Globalist and my first time being upgraded to a suite.

Upon entering the King Suite, I was pleasantly surprised by its ample space. The first thing I noticed was the massive sofabed and ottoman. Both were surprisingly comfortable.

The left side of the sofa had a small end table with a desk lamp, and the opposite side had a floor lamp.

There was also a sofa tray table for those wanting to have a meal while relaxing on the sofa. Although I only used it when eating a small snack, I found it to be very practical and convenient.

Next to the sofa area was a small workstation with seating for 2 people. Although the seats had an intriguing design, they were uncomfortable, so I opted not to use them much during my stay.

A wall-mounted TV with a sizable cabinet beneath it was to the right of the workstation and directly across from the sofa.

The hotel provided 6 complimentary water bottles placed on top of the cabinet.

All the other shelves in the cabinet were empty. However, the room’s minifridge was on the far left of the cabinet.

Directly behind the sofa and workstation, the room’s windows stretched the room’s length. The windows offered a stunning panorama of tall skyscrapers and nearby hotels.

The mix of lower buildings and towering skyscrapers made for an enjoyable sight. Bangkok has developed considerably since I first visited in 2016.

Bedroom

Upon entering the bedroom, I saw a bench upholstered in plush material. Next to the bench was a small end table.

I then saw the king bed, which looked incredibly comfortable (and it was). The bed had 4 pillows of varying firmness, and I appreciated the quality of the bedding

A small nightstand was on both sides of the bed. The left nightstand had the room’s phone, a notepad with a pen, and the TV remote. Above it were 2 AC power outlets, light controls, and a small wall-mounted lamp.

The right nightstand was empty. Above it was a single AC power outlet, a USB port, 2 light switches, and a lamp.

To the far right of the bathroom was a soaking tub. Although I didn’t use this tub, it did look inviting.

The bathroom also had a bathtub.

Overall, I was thoroughly impressed with the suite. I enjoyed the spacious layout, which divided the massive room into separate sections.

The sofa provided a comfortable spot for relaxation; I even took a nap on it. The bed was exceptionally comfortable, and I appreciated the quality of the bedding provided.

However, the most impressive part of the suite was undoubtedly its breathtaking views of Bangkok.

I’m grateful to Hyatt and the hotel staff at this property for consistently providing excellent service and upgrades, making my stays even more enjoyable as a Globalist member.

Food and Beverage
