The Ivory Suvarnabhumi

The Ivory Suvarnabhumi is ideal for somebody needing easy access to Bangkok International Airport. Though the airport is just about 2 km away aircraft noise is non-existent.

What added to our time getting to the hotel from the airport was the thirty-minute wait for the free airport pick-up service. The driver was very apologetic though.

The hotel is compact, but with rooms that are surprisingly spacious, comfortable and spotless. What I liked best was the bright and cheerful colour chosen. Ivory naturally.

Staff at the hotel were at a minimum and I wondered if these were serviced apartments.  However, the front office person did try hard tracking down a telephone number for us.

There is a restaurant in front of the building but I didn’t think it was part of the hotel and anyway, the fare offered was extremely limited in choice. We checked in at about 9.30 pm and then went in search of something to eat but there was nothing to be found. For Bangkok, the streets were surprisingly deserted. I got the impression that it was an industrial area with a lot of warehouses that were locked for the night.

This hotel has to be accessed by taxi.
