vie hotel was new and trendy and im definitely going back there in a couple of months' time! during check in, i was informed by the staff that i wouid be upgraded to a suite and one of the staff accompanied me to the suite. such wonderful service and hospitality!! the room was huge and tastefully decorated, with a spacious living room, bedroom and bathroom. as the suite was on the 19th floor, i could enjoy an unblocked view of bangkok city. there is only one restaurant called the vie grill restaurant which is an award winning restaurant in thailand. i had my lunch there on departure day (grilled salmon) and it was quite good. the bread was also soft and warm. the restaurant staff were attentive and polite. definitely worth checking out the restaurant if you are sick of the street food in bkk.
the best part about the hotel is that it is just a few steps from ratchathewi bts station, which makes around easy and fast. it is also located near shopping havens: it is about 10 min to mbk, 15 min to siam paragon and siam centre and 15 min to platinum fashion mall. if you are too lazy to walk, you can take the bts train. those malls are just one station away!
