Pullman Bangkok King Power Executive Suite review
I’m finally catching up on my Bangkok travel posts, and this one was too good not to share.
We landed in Bangkok pretty late at night,
so for the first night we stayed at a Grand Mercure closer to the airport,
and then moved here for the rest of the trip.
Pullman Bangkok King Power.
There are, I think, three Pullman hotels in Bangkok,
so make sure you double-check the full hotel name before you book.
We booked the one
connected to the King Power Rangnam duty-free complex—Pullman Bangkok King Power.
This is one of those great-value 5-star hotels in Bangkok that I’d happily recommend.
This is the entrance where your Grab will usually drop you off.
Somehow, I’ve ended up staying at Pullman hotels
in quite a few places around the world.
Phu Quoc, Dubai, Bangkok…
The lobby here is actually pretty spacious.
The regular check-in desk is on the ground floor, labeled G,
but since we booked a suite,
we went up to the Club Lounge for a private check-in instead.
Check-in is at 2 PM and check-out is at 12 PM, which felt very generous.
The lounge is on the 20th floor,
and a staff member escorted us up.
And here it is—a quiet lounge with almost no one there.
We traveled during the Lunar New Year holiday,
and it happened to overlap with a major Chinese holiday too,
so everywhere we went was absolutely packed.
That made this calm, seated check-in feel even better.
Even that juice they served was weirdly delicious—bright and refreshing.
During check-in, they handed us quite a few things,
including various hotel coupons
and a King Power Lounge access card
to use at Suvarnabhumi Airport on our way home.
It was valid for one full year,so even if
you don’t use it on this trip,
you can save it for your next Bangkok visit.
If you stay at Pullman Bangkok King Power,
you can basically take care of your hotel stayand airport lounge access in one go. Such a nice perk.
Quick spoiler: it wasn’t an amazing lounge,
but it was more than good enough for a short visit.
Anyway, after checking the floor guide,
I had to take a photo because the elevator buttons looked so unusual.
We were assigned to the top floor,
room 2141.
It was also tucked away at the very end of the hall,
so it felt extra quiet and private, which I loved.
Our room type was the Executive Suite,and
this was the living room area.
It had a sofa, a table, and even a dining table.
There were fresh flowers in the room too,
and housekeeping actually replaced them during make-up service, which I loved.
The living room was such a nice spot for late-night snacks and drinks.
This is what the room looks like from the entrance.
That mirrored cabinet on the right is the minibar.
There was a fruit plate as welcome food,
but between that and the Club Lounge,
we barely touched it.
You can check various hotel services through a QR code.
The luggage rack had this ruler-like shape,
so it wasn’t the most convenient thing to use, but still better than nothing.
The item on the right was a drying hanger for swimsuits.
Drinking water came in glass bottles,
and they gave us six at a time—plus more if we asked.
There was also everything you’d expect: a coffee machine, electric kettle, ice bucket, and more.
At this point, whenever we enter a hotel room,
my husband just waits without touching anything while I take all my photos and videos.
The minibar wasn’t included in the room rate,
so we took everything out and used the space for our own drinks instead.
If you need it, here’s the minibar price list for reference.
The view outside the window was… not great.
Now onto the bedroom.
The bed was very generously sized,
and that easy chair? I didn’t even sit in it once.
The TV was smaller than I expected,
but since we barely used it, it didn’t matter.
After staying at a few Pullman properties,
I feel like I’ve started to get a sense of their design style.
It’s not exactly my personal favorite,
but the pricing and service are consistently solid, which makes Pullman an easy choice.
The bathroom was connected to the bedroom,
with a separate bathtub and separate shower booth—
my favorite layout.
The bathroom was spacious,
and I especially liked how much counter space there was around the sink.
The tub was large and nice too, though I never actually used it.
The amenities were provided in refillable bottles,
and Bangkok water quality is… well, as you can see.
A shower filter is a must.
They still provided all the usual disposable items too.
I especially liked this brush—
honestly too good to feel like a throwaway item.
Open the closet and there’s even more inside.
You can probably see everything without me spelling it all out.
One outfit per day could be laundered for free,
so we made good use of that every single day.
The slippers were soft and comfortable too.
But there was one small downside.
In the gap of the bathroom door,
there was a strip of double-eyelid tape left behind by a previous guest,
and even after housekeeping came through,
it was still there, so I guess they missed it.
Some people like to check the hotel information booklet too,
so instead of explaining every page,
I’ll just leave it as something you can read if you need it.
Also, besides the default pillows,
you could request different pillow types.
We asked for cervical support pillows,
and when we came back from going out, they were already in the room.
From the next day on,
housekeeping kept setting up the same pillows for us, which was great.
Every day after we came back from being out and about,
they would leave ice and simple snacks for us
even without us asking, which was such a nice touch.
Thailand’s famous whisky—well, technically brandy—
Regency is apparently hard to find these days,
and we got lucky enough to grab four bottles.
We also picked up snacks and fruit and ate them in the room,
rolled out a mat and did some stretching,
and really enjoyed a slow, relaxed Bangkok hotel stay.
From here on, let’s look at the hotel facilities.
There’s a café called Junction on the lobby level.
As long as you’re not sitting right by the coffee counter,
it seemed like a comfortable space anyone could use.
I’m not sure if they were selling diffusers,
but there was a spot where you could test the scents.
In the ballroom, they were hosting some kind of pet treat expo—
or something along those lines, anyway.
It was clearly being used actively as an event space.
If you step out into the courtyard on the G floor,
you’ll find this beautifully landscaped garden.
There’s also a sushi omakase restaurant called Tenko Sushi,
and the pricing didn’t look bad at all, so I considered trying it,
but we had just had sushi omakase in Japan
not long before this trip, so we passed.
You can even watch schools of koi swimming around,
and the whole area photographs beautifully with a lush, jungle-like feel.
Meanwhile, we were in black outfits every single day, of course.
It was pretty at night too,
but there were lots of bugs, so I definitely had a few jump-scare moments.
And that wraps up the quick look around the property.
Throughout our stay, I honestly had zero complaints.
This was such a solid Pullman hotel in Bangkok,
and we had a really restful stay.
I’ll cover the pool, gym, and Club Lounge
in a separate post next time.
