Department of Consular Affairs

Pros. Big room, clean room, big windows good mattress. Cons. Cannot adjust room temperature. Asked front desk to change. Said okay, but nobody came. Location has nothing nearby. One 7-11, one food vendor. The worst coffee in the coffee shop on the main floor I have had in 10’years in SE Asia. 2 small washer and dryers . 1 dryer broke. 10 floor hotel with 2 washing machines. Not impressed at all. Maybe I was jinxed at this hotel. Strange management decisions , luckily just one night

Good service , very clean, location away from downtown

Modern hotel with a rooftop Infinity Pool with a good view of Bangkok's skyline. Got a ticket for a welcome drink which was nice. We booked two rooms which were joining rooms which was nice. They only accept cash deposits and don't give it back to you until they inspect the rooms before you leave. The inspection actually discovered my daughter leaving her Apple charger and cord there so actually helpful. Room's AC was powerful and made the room a bit cold even when I raised it up to 26 celcius. Ari is quite a bit different from Sukhumvit as it feels more local than touristy. But if you look for the trendy cafes, they are there in Ari although they are way more expensive than typical Thai stores. I would stay at the Ari again if I wanted to stay in that neighborhood.
