“Davis was nice enough but I probably wouldn't return”

We stayed at The Davis for two nights at the start of our honeymoon in Phuket and Ko Phi Phi. After such a long trip from California--on 4 planes--we thought it would be nice to stop off in Bangkok for a bit before continuing on. We arrived at the hotel at1:30am after a very long trip and the staff on duty was very nice and accomodating. Almost too much, the bellboy who brought our bags into the room sat on the bed with us while he went over a map of Bangkok asking us what we planned on doing. He tried repeatedly to get us to book a taxi to the Grand Palace the next morning, we did say we wanted to go there but after such a long trip we weren't ready to commit to a time and weren't even sure if we wanted to do much of anything but lying around on the first day of our honeymoon. We finally convinced him to leave us alone so we could relax.
The room itself was quite nice. We stayed in the corner wing, which doesn't seem as nice as the main hotel. The bathroom was great with a large shower and separate tub that peeked out to the bedroom through a large window. The only issue was the shower head over the tub went from scorching hot to freezing cold every 10 seconds or so.
The breakfast buffet was very nice, I don't understand the other complaints I've read. IF a hotel serves breakfast in America it usually just consists of juice and toast so the plentiful buffet at The Davis was excellent, saved us the time and money of going out to breakfast.
However, when we finally decided we would make it to the Grand Palace we asked the hotel to call us a taxi since we thought it would be the best way. The taxi driver they called for us insisted on taking us to a tailor and a gem shop which was "on the way" to the Grand Palace. It was a little pushy and a waste of my time, but we could've been more adamant in saying no. And I saw this same taxi driver the next morning in the hotel waiting for a fare so they obviously have some relationship with him. Other than that, the hotel was nice enough. The pool looked fabulous, though we never made it there. And we didn't get a chance to eat at any of the restaurants in the Hotel. For the short time we had in Bangkok and at The Davis, I'd say the hotel was mediocre.

“Beautiful hotel depending on the wing your in!”

Davis Bangkok

3/3 found this review helpful

Stayed in this hotel twice during our trip to Thailand this month. We stayed for 2 nights on our arrival in Bangkok in a Studio room in the Corner Wing. The room was lovely and spacious and had a stunning bathroom with a glass window looking onto the bedroom. There is a curtain for the window for those who prefer a bit of privacy but we liked the idea of looking into our room from the massive double bath. The reception area of the Corner Wing is very quiet and the smell wasn't the greatest but apart from that everything else was spotless. On our return to Bangkok we stayed in a Davis Suite in the Main Wing and all I can say about the room is wow!! They had a special deal on for this room and we got it for £65 a night, the same as we paid for the Studio room at the start. The suites have a fully fitted kitchen and sitting area which are beautiful even tho the kitchen area looks like it's never been used and never will be! Can't imagine many people would stay in these rooms and want to cook! Once again the bathroom and bedroom areas were stunnning. We decided on the Main Wing on our return as this contains the swimming pool and fitness areas on the 9th floor which we only realised when we wanted to go there on our first stay but found out they were in a seperate building!

The location on Sukhumvit Road is very good for nice hotels and only a 10 minute walk to the Skytrain. The only problem is that it is the other side of the city from a lot of the things we wanted to do i.e. Kaosan Road, Siam Square, The Palace Temples etc. The metered taxis even to the other end of the city are mega cheap i.e. 100 Baht (about £1.50) to Kaosan Rd from our hotel but be aware that during the day the traffic is horrendous and can sometimes take up to an hour. We would say it's a lot quicker to get the Skytrain to the National Stadium (about 45 Baht) then get a taxi the rest of the way. It's not so bad at night when the traffic is less.

Overall this is a beautiful boutique hotel which we would highly recommend and would definitely stay here again.

We stayed at the Davis over a weekend (Friday to Sunday).
It is very well located in Surkimvit (although) not on the Sky Train.
We found Taxi fares of less than 100 Baht got us anywhere we wanted to go.
The room was stunning (Delux) with a four posted bed,modern facilities and enough room to swing a cat.
The buffet breakfst and the restuarant had a great modern ambiance as does the lobby and the stafff were very friendly and young...energetic.
English training for staff would make this Hotel get 5 stars.

“Unprofessional”

3/4 found this review helpful

If this hotel claimed to be a 3 star I would have had few complaints. The hotel and room are nice, but certainly not 5 star standard. There was no major fault other than check-out and payment. BUT these were some of our experiences;
1. Had to ask 3 times(email) for a simple question to be answered at booking.
2.Room allocated was not the one I requested at booking.(pictures on website do not exist as 1 room. I asked about this before and was assured they were correct. Suites do not all have wet bar/cooking facilities as stated on website)
3.Room not cleaned till 5:30 PM, ran out of tissue and towels not replaced.
4.Breakfast buffet poor, food not hot and dishes not replaced
5. Evening buffet was also poor, limited choice and again not hot
6.Drinks in bar incredibly expensive
7.Standard of fittings, toiletries like a 3 star hotel

If you are expecting 5 star standards you will be disapointed. The hotel is actually very nice but let down by the small touches that make you feel pampered and a valued guest. The Sheraton and Peninsula far superior, I would even say the Mercure Park Avenue is of a higher standard. One should exepect more for $200 per night in Bangkok.

I would not have written this review other than because of how we were treated at check-out. My room was booked and presumably paid for by credit card in advance, to take advantage of a low season offer. I did not bring the card with me, maybe my fault now I realise. I have paid for many hotels , worldwide, with credit card and my bill has always been charged to the account.
They insisted they swipe my card again for room payment. when I asked them to just charge my account they refused, I said they could not let me leave even tough I had a flight to catch. They, apparently, can take payment for a 'no show or damage' charge but refuse to do this for payment.
Maybe I was unlucky but he attitude displayed by the female duty manager was disapointing to say the least.
The whole incident was embarassing and conducted very unprofessionally ie. conducted with agressive tone in front of other guests(who were alsocomplaing of poor service)
We paid in cash and left, NEVER to return again.
With the competititon in Bangkok it's a wonder this hotel has return guests.

“Location counts!”

Davis Bangkok

Jun 21, 2008

The hotel in itself is pretty nice with a good taste design.
Rooms are spacious and very well furnished with a lot of extra amenities such as a microwave owen and a mini HIFI.
Anyway the property is 1.2 Kms far from the nearest sky train station (Phrom Phong) and the tuk tuk mentioned in other reviews doesn't runs so often... I've never met the driver in three days! Even the Reception and Spa staff is not enough trained to meet the 5 stars international standards.
Very good buffet breakfast.
Considering the rate paied there are many other better solutions in Bangkok!
