A quality small luxury hotel, convenient to direct Airport Link from Suvarnabhumi Airport.

Review of Akara Hotel
5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 4 weeks ago
Stayed at the small luxury Akara Hotel quite a few times & always had a warm welcome from professional, caring & service orientated hotel staff.

Another good stay for a couple of nights having arrived into Bangkok from Malaysia. A swift direct Airport Link train from Suvarnabhumi to the nearest stop on the main link called Ratchaprarop, 1 stop before Phaya-Thai.

The hotel is the same well appointed, mood lit, small luxury hotel it’s always been with nice touches to the building design & furnishings.

Another plus is the quality staff service levels which always hit the mark. From Richie on the front door / concierge desk through to guest services manager Miss Milacron Chaemsrikaew (AKA Linda) who on this occasion kindly upgraded our room pertaining to an unforeseen issue.

The daily afternoon food tasting delicacies accompanied by Malaysian Pulled-Tea is always a quality touch & a very welcome experience for guests available between 1400 & 1700hrs. This delicious tasting offering is served in the hotel’s relaxing second floor mood-lit library.

Slightly disappointing is the ongoing neglect of the solo strength station in the small fitness suite on the second floor.

All the hotel need do to address this ongoing issue is purchase the relevant Dual Adjustable Pulley (DAP) with attachments & handles which would then permit guests to actually workout on the reasonable 6-cabled / dual weight plate loaded strength station.

Hopefully the accompanying handles / attachments will be in place by my next stay at the Akara in late September. Cost to the hotel proprietor would be less than US$100.

The Matrix CV equipment is perfectly fine & all up the fitness suite works adequately.

Well appointed hotel guest rooms are very comfortable, well appointed, with quality beds, linen & topped off with great marble bathrooms offering super baths & rain showers.

Another great stay. Thank you.
Date of stay: September 2024
Room Tip: Great small luxury hotel with high end guest-centric staff like concierge Richie, guest services...

Wow what a place. This was a once in a lifetime trip for us and this hotel made it perfect. Stylish and cozy at the same time, unbeatable location and staff. Location was ideal for getting around the city. A must mention is the outdoor pool, we spent half our vacation just relaxing by the pool. Thank you.

Akara Bangkok is located near ARL Ratchaprarop but if you want to go to Pratunam, it is still quite a walk but safe because many people are walking too.
It was already night check-in, there was only one receptionist, in front of me it seemed like a walk-in guest took quite a long time, about 10 minutes to finish. We were asked for a deposit of 3,000 baht which was returned upon check-in. The first impression of the lobby is a bit crowded, but it is proper because the AC is cold so after walking with the hot Bangkok air it feels comfortable. Entering the room there is a work desk, work chair, day bed sofa, and mattress with 4 pillows and 2 decorative pillows. The room looks cramped because it is too full. The funny thing is that the closet is near the entrance to the room while the bathtub and washbasin are at the end of the room. Mineral water is provided in 2 bottles with coffee capsules, coffee sachets and Lipton tea. The TV, although not too big, is clear. Wifi is also quite good. All controls in this room are provided on an electronic tablet so you can turn on the AC lights etc., set it from the tablet.
The bathroom is clean, the bathtub is large, there is a shower, rain shower and water filler tap. Complete amenities but no razor. Everything works perfectly, towels are also complete, provided 2 body towels, 2 hand towels and 2 face towels.
Unfortunately our room was not cleaned on the second day, because we had returned to the hotel and wanted to rest so we just asked for new towels, amenities and mineral water.
The facilities include an infinity pool on the rooftop, the view is quite good, the gym didn't have time to take a photo. For breakfast, we only booked a room so we couldn't review it, but the Akara hotel provides afternoon tea for all guests from 2-4 pm. It's quite delicious, there are spring rolls, grilled bananas, sticky rice, rice vermicelli, Thai cassava, salad, fruit, coconut pudding and Thai iced tea.

Perfect stay, excellent service, good location (even though not in a main location, its a good proximity to market - incl. night market, mall, and convenience store). Staff service are amazing, Ray and Ian are exceptional. This is also my first time to get an upgrade room, thank you!

I recommended the hotel to my 5 friends and they’re booking other rooms for the whole week, too and there was no complaint. Thank you Akara.

The room was exceptionally clean, and the staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating. The level of service and cleanliness made a strong impression on me. Additionally, the Wi-Fi was reliable and had a strong signal throughout my stay. Given the positive experience I had, I am certain that I will choose to return in the future. The overall environment was welcoming and well-maintained, contributing to a pleasant and comfortable visit. The efficiency and warmth of the staff, combined with the quality of the amenities, made my stay enjoyable and hassle-free.
