[REVIEW] Pullman Bangkok Hotel G, Bangkok

Bangkok is one of the world’s most popular shopping destinations and accommodation is aplenty as the city is flooded with tourists year-round. You’d be spoilt for choice when deciding on a place to stay and as a tourist in a foreign country, things like comfort, location, facilities and public transport accessibility is extremely important. Some hotels tick off all of those concerns and offer way more than you can expect, and Pullman Bangkok Hotel G is one of them.

This 470-room trendy lifestyle hotel opened its doors in 2012 and is one of the most stylish hotels we have ever come across. Located along Silom Road, this hotel stunned us right away as we walked into the building. Sophisticated, super chic and contemporary, all the classy decor and cutting-edge architectural design of the entire hotel is unlike any other.

Needless to say, the hotel rooms were just as impressive. Spacious, comfortable and modern, the rooms offered here are the epitome of an urban lifestyle in the heart of Bangkok. We got to experience the 34sqm Deluxe Room, which was the perfect size for couples or families of three. The room had a white interior, decorated with white furniture that perfectly complements the theme of the room. Perfect for young leisure travellers like ourselves! All the rooms at Pullman Bangkok Hotel G are equipped with free Wi-Fi, flat screen TV, a pillow menu, iPod docking station, a complete minibar as well as Roger & Gallet bathroom amenities.

Besides the Deluxe Room, we also got the opportunity to take a sneak peek at the two types of 1-bedroom Suites the hotel offered. The first, called the G Suite, has a look and feel that’s similar to that of the Deluxe Room. The G Suite comes with a dining area, a bar area, a cosy living area as well as the bedroom. The Suite is suitable for larger families and if you’d like, you can also rent the Suite for small parties or celebrations! There is also a butler available upon request and a special menu just for the G Suite.

What caught our attention the most was this G Box, which is only available for this specific type of Suite. Clearly, the G Suite is made for some fun as this exclusive G Box had endless supplies of condoms, lubricants, some yummy snacks, hotel souvenirs as well as makeup! We were so intrigued and we’ve never seen any other hotels offer something like this.

The other type of Suite had a totally different look and feel, meant for more business-minded travellers. Instead of the white interior and pairing white furnitures, this type of Suite had dark wood flooring as well as dark wood furniture to go with the theme. It is classy, just as spacious and looks more refined for a slightly older crowd. We love the fact that the hotel offers its guests with two completely different room styles to suit various personal preferences.

Besides the outdoor swimming pool, there is the Anne Semonin Spa offering treatments inspired by both the holistic synergy of the East and West, as well as a fully equipped fitness centre for those of you who are looking to enjoy a full workout. If you’re staying in any of the Executive Suites or Rooms, this will automatically give you access to the hotel’s Executive Lounge located on the 27th floor, which offers guests an exclusive club atmosphere to relax and unwind while enjoying the all-day refreshments provided.

Pullman Bangkok Hotel G also offers its guests several in-vogue places to wine and dine. Open 24 hours a day, 25 Degrees is a burger and wine bar with a sophisticated new twist on the traditional American burger bar concept. It is the ultimate venue for you and your friends to eat, drink, party and entertain all under one roof. Besides an extensive breakfast menu, the restaurant also offers customers a unique experience in crafting your own burger by selecting your own toppings. In conjunction with the World Cup season, 25 Degrees is also offering a special World Cup meal set.

At the lobby and mezzanine floor, you can find Playground, which is a bubbles and mixology bar that’s open daily from 10am to 1am. It boasts a large selection of cocktails made to order by professional mixologists, so sit back, relax and enjoy its classy surroundings. With various art objects and elegant decor, Playground also provides a selection of retro board games such as Backgammon, Chess and Foosball if you’re up for a game or two.

Finally, this is our favourite place of all in the entire hotel and we reckon that it is a must-visit if you’re in Bangkok. On the 37th floor of the hotel is Scarlett Wine Bar and Restaurant. The place is absolutely divine and is decorated with the most sophisticated, classic and modern decor as well as furniture, so it is difficult not to love. We tried some of the food this rooftop restaurant has to offer and let us tell you, it is exquisite. That’s not the best part about Scarlett. After dinner, we moved towards the outdoor terrace for some wine and cocktails, and there it was, the breath-taking Bangkok skyline in all of its glory. Whether it is a romantic date, family affair or a girls’ night out, Scarlett would be the ideal place for you to hang out and enjoy the unique ambience.

We really enjoyed your stay at Pullman Bangkok Hotel G and we’d definitely be going back soon. Besides the top-notch service and pleasant stay, this is a very memorable hotel and we dare say that its standards are way above the rest in its class.

Pullman Bangkok Hotel G is easily accessible via a 5-minute walk from the Chong Nonsi BTS Skytrain station. A little further from that would be the Sala Daeng BTS Skytrain station, where a mall and tons of street food is located, so it would be an option if you’d like a little more to see on your journey while walking towards the hotel. The hotel isn’t very nearby the popular malls such as the Platinum Fashion Mall, MBK or Siam Paragon, but you can always hop on the Skytrain and head towards your destination.
