We had done quite a bit of research when trying to select a hotel for our stay in Bangkok, and the cost/class of this hotel seemed the best fit for us. When we arrived, we were treated incredibly well and everyone from the manager to the person doing some cleaning would greet us with a smile.
We stayed on the 54th floor with a river view, and the room that we had selected through Expedia included breakfast, which was AWESOME. Someone said that breakfast was ordinary, well, I would honestly want to know what he considered good, as there was an omlette/egg station, waffle/pancake station, pastries and breads, japanese selections, continental selections, thai selections, fruit, etc etc. There were a couple of the items that would change depending on the day and many that were the same throughout our stay. One of the most wonderful things were the fresh juices ranging from standard orange to guava, pineapple, watermelon, etc. It was like a rainbow of juice when walking in for breakfast!
One note is that almost anything at Lebua is going to be relatively pricey, but everything that we had was quite good. We ate at Breeze, and the bill came to 80 us dollars...and we only had 1 cocktail each.
Regarding the location of Lebua, it is only a short walk to the BTS station, which is also right next to the central station for the river taxi. Hint...buy the orange line tickets as they are cheaper than the yellow line tickets, and stop at almost all the same spots.
The room was huge and had an incredibly comfortable bed, which is always important for me. There could have been a couple more sheets as you could almost make it too cold with the dual air conditioners in the room. The room layout is executive style with a smaller living room upon entry to the room, and then the bathroom, then the bedroom which had the view and balcony (that you had to sign a release of liability form in order for them to unlock). The bedroom had a sliding door that was able to be closed to allow some privacy from the living room area. There is a fridge, sink, stovetop and ample storage space, but there are no clothes washing machines (just in case you were wondering). The bathroom had a great tub, and a very nice large shower with great water pressure and plenty of warm water.
A great hotel, wonderful staff, and a comfortable bed are my main concerns when staying somewhere, and Lebua more than met my expectations, they exceeded them quite well.
