Bangkok Luxury: Netflix, Pool, Gym & 50MWIFI River View Suite!
Alright, buckle up buttercups, because we're diving headfirst into the shimmering, sometimes-a-little-dodgy-but-always-enticing waters of Bangkok Luxury: Netflix, Pool, Gym & 50MWIFI River View Suite!. And trust me, this isn't your average cookie-cutter hotel review. This is the raw, unfiltered, and occasionally caffeinated truth. Grab a Singha, and let's do this.
First Impressions & Accessibility (or, the Dreaded Airport Shuffle)
Okay, so picture this: you’re fried from a long haul flight, desperately craving air conditioning that doesn't feel like a lukewarm swamp. You finally pull up, and thankfully, the hotel looks… well, it looks like the pictures. HUGE bonus. Finding the place itself? No problem at all, right off the main road in a pretty decent spot, accessibility wise.
Now, before we get too gung-ho, let's talk real accessibility. They say "Facilities for disabled guests," and that's a good start. But, and it's a big but, I didn’t personally check their detailed accessibility for specific needs. So, it’s a "check with the hotel directly" situation, yeah? I’m leaning towards “mostly accessible” based on elevator use and room layout, but don’t quote me on it.
The Suite Life: Roomy, River View, and the Eternal Quest for Wi-Fi
The “River View Suite” – now that's where things get interesting. You’re talking proper space. Enough to swing a… well, you could probably swing a whole damn elephant. The view? Gorgeous. Absolutely breathtaking. I'm talking postcard-worthy, Instagram-worthy… you get the picture. It’ll cure what ails ya, until you get mosquito bite.
And then there's the Wi-Fi. 50 MEGAWATTS, they boast! Well, sometimes it's more like 50 Kilobits. Look, it was generally okay, but don't bank on streaming a 4K movie at peak times. I had a few moments of hair-pulling frustration. But, hey, Free Wi-Fi [free] in all rooms is a big win, and eventually, I got my Netflix fix. (More on Netflix later. It became a thing).
Inside the room, they've got all the usual trappings: Air conditioning – glorious, life-saving air conditioning. A comfy bed (extra long, nice!), a mini bar (always a dangerous friend), a safe (where I stashed my passport… and a secret stash of chocolate the kids weren’t allowed to touch). Plenty of outlets, essential for the modern digital nomad. And, bless their hearts, a coffee maker. Because, you know, survival. Towels, toiletries, bathrobes – all the necessities for a luxurious soak.
The Pool, The Gym, and the Sauna: Sweat, Soothe, Repeat (and Maybe Miss a Step)
The outdoor pool – that’s a highlight. The "Pool with a view" is the star of the show. Picture yourself lounging, sun reflecting off the Chao Phraya River. Pure bliss. Except, and this is life, I spent more time dodging kids' splashing than enjoying the view. Ah well.
The fitness center? Functional. Good. Gym/fitness is there, and you can break a sweat. I am by no means a workout fanatic; I’m more of an “attempt-a-light-jog-before-giving-up-and-eating-a-croissant” kind of person. But it did the trick. Sauna/Spa? Excellent. Sauna, steamroom, the works. Good to get you relaxed and ready for more action. Spa. I skipped the full-on spa experience as I didn’t want to be poked with a hot stone, but it looked swanky.
Food Glorious Food (and the Occasional Food Fight)
Okay, let's talk food. Because, let's be honest, that's important.
Restaurants: They have restaurants; plural. International cuisine in restaurant is there – and they had pretty decent stuff. I really enjoyed the Asian breakfast.
Room Service: 24-hour room service? YES, PLEASE! I ordered multiple meals just for the fun of it. Because, hey, I was on holiday.
Breakfast: Asian breakfast, Western breakfast, buffet… you name it, they’ve got it. The buffet was… well, buffets are always a gamble, aren’t they? Some days it was amazing, other days… let’s just say I saw the sad remnants of a half-eaten sausage.
Snack Bar and Others: There's a coffee shop, a poolside bar and a bar. I tried them all. Happy hour? Yes, please.
Dietary needs: Alternative meal arrangement, vegetarian restaurant are available!.
Cleanliness and Safety (because let's be real, that's important too)
- Anti-viral cleaning products, Daily disinfection in common areas, Hand sanitizer, Hygiene certification, Individually-wrapped food options, Physical distancing: Good initiative, feels responsible.
- Staff trained in safety protocol: Feels like they're trying their best.
- Rooms sanitized between stays: I certainly hoped so.
- Safe dining setup: The effort was there.
The Netflix Obsession (or, How I Became One with My Bed)
Okay, back to the Netflix. I discovered the sheer joy of binge-watching a terrible reality TV show while simultaneously ordering room service and gazing at that river view. It was glorious. Pure, unadulterated escapism. It may have caused me to miss a planned excursion. But hey, priorities, right? (Don't judge.)
Services and Conveniences (the Stuff That Makes Life Easier)
The list is long!
- Concierge: Super helpful.
- Daily housekeeping: Ah, the luxury of a made bed.

- Car park [free of charge], Valet parking: Parking is easy.

- Around The Hotel: Nearby shrines for spiritual seekers.
- For the kids: Babysitting service, family/child friendly, kids meal, kids facilities: all options available, but remember this is a luxury hotel, and may not be a place for kids to run wild.
The Verdict: Should You Book?
Look, "Bangkok Luxury" isn't perfect. Nothing ever is. But for the price, the location, the view, the sheer comfort, and, yes, the availability of Netflix, it's a solid choice.
The Imperfection of the Experience, some things were not available
- Couple's room, Exterior corridor, Pets allowed , Proposal spot: Not available.
- Additional toilet, Bathroom phone: Not sure on the additional toilet, and who uses a bathroom phone these days?

Ipoh's BEST Family Getaway: 10-Pax Stay!
Okay, buckle up, buttercups, because we're about to dive headfirst into a Bangkok adventure. Forget those perfectly curated Instagram feeds – this is the real deal. We’re talking messy, glorious, slightly-too-much-Pad-Thai-induced-belly-ache kind of real. And it all starts… in PREMIUMRIVERVIEWSUITEKF4 NETFLIX+50MWIFI+POOL+GYM. Oh, the glamour.
Bangkok Blitz: Operation "Don't Get Eaten by a Tuk-Tuk"
Day 1: Arrival, Jet Lag, and the Quest for Authentic Noodles
Morning (6:00 AM - 9:00 AM): Arrive Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK). Okay, let's be honest, that part was a blur of sleep deprivation. Found my luggage (miracle!), wrestled with the airport Wi-Fi (minor victory!), and got a taxi to the… fancy suite. The aircon hit me like a euphoric wave. I’m pretty sure I saw a Buddha statue wink at me from the corner of my eye. Jet lag is a beast.
Mid-Morning (9:00 AM - 12:00 PM): Suite Reconnaissance. Checked in. The "Premium River View" is actually… pretty darn premium. The view? Stunning. The Netflix? Essential. The gym? Probably never going to be used, but hey, it's there for moral support. The pool? Oh, we will be best friends. I spent a solid hour just staring out the window, feeling that exhilarating mix of awe and "what have I gotten myself into?"
Lunch (12:00 PM - 1:00 PM): Food. I’m STARVING. Time for the first foray into the world of Bangkok street food. Found a little place down the street based on the chaotic symphony of clanging woks, sizzling oil, and what I hoped was the promise of deliciousness. Here's a thing: don't just point at the menu without knowing what you're pointing at. I ended up with something that looked like a beautiful, spicy, noodle-filled crime scene. It was AMAZING. Seriously, best thing I've eaten in… well, maybe ever. My mouth is still on fire.
Afternoon (1:00 PM - 5:00 PM): The Grand Palace and Wat Pho (Temple of the Reclining Buddha): Okay, this is the touristy bit. And guess what? It’s AMAZING. The Grand Palace is… well, GRAND. So much gold! So much detail! I also nearly got run over by a rogue tuk-tuk, which probably counts as an official Bangkok experience, right? The Reclining Buddha? So huge! My jaw genuinely dropped. The sheer scale of everything… it’s overwhelming.
Evening (5:00 PM - 8:00 PM): The food coma is setting in. Now I found a rooftop bar, but the problem is the jet lag – it’s like I’m constantly fighting to keep my eyes open. So, the view was pretty, the cocktails were strong, and I probably slurred my way through a conversation with the bartender. I think I told him my life story. He didn’t seem to mind. One drink turned into three which turned into me trying to learn Thai. Let's just say it didn't go further than "Sawasdee krap!" and a lot of laughter.
Night (8:00 PM onwards): Netflix and… well, probably passing out. The suite's Netflix selection is a godsend. I'm pretty sure I saw half a documentary, then woke up drooling on the pillow. This jet lag thing is brutal. But, hey, Day 1 = success. I survived!
Day 2: Temples, Boats, and Bargaining Battles
Morning (9:00 AM - 12:00 PM): Wake up, slightly less jet-lagged. I think. Went to Wat Arun (Temple of Dawn). The sunrise I missed. Don’t judge. I’m on vacation. The details here are insane, and I felt a strange sense of serenity as I walked around.
Lunch (12:00 PM - 1:00 PM): Another street food adventure! This time, I'm armed with a phrasebook and a slightly less adventurous palate. I ordered pad thai… and it was glorious, even if I did accidentally order "extra spicy" again. My face turned shades of red that would make a fire engine jealous. Worth. It.
Afternoon: (1:00 PM - 4:00 PM) The Chao Phraya River Cruise: This was amazing. I mean, absolutely stunning. The temples, the buildings, the life along the banks - all of it was like stepping into a postcard. Getting on and off the boats was a bit hectic, but it was an adventure in itself. This is probably the best touristy activity.
Afternoon (4:00 PM - 6:00 PM): Chatuchak Weekend Market Frenzy: This market… wow. It’s a sensory overload in the best possible way. So much stuff! Clothing, souvenirs, food (of course), animals (which felt a bit weird, tbh). I attempted my first serious bargaining session. I probably overpaid for a pair of fake Ray-Bans, but I consider it a contribution to the local economy. And they look cool, so who cares?!
Evening (6:00 PM - 8:00 PM): Dinner. Sat by the river and had food to go. This time, I got less spice than usual. I felt like I was winning at life. Enjoyed the vibrant city views.
Night (8:00 PM - onwards): Bubble bath in the glorious bathroom followed by a movie, feeling pleasantly exhausted. I think I'm finally starting to adjust to Bangkok time. Or at least, I hope so.
Day 3: Floating Markets, Massages, and a Farewell Feast (Maybe Tears)
Morning (8:00 AM - 12:00 PM): Damnoen Saduak Floating Market. I took a tour, because I definitely don't trust my navigation skills enough to drive a boat myself. It's crowded, it’s touristy, it’s beautiful and I loved it. The colours were amazing, the food (again, the food!) was incredible, and the whole experience felt surreal. I accidentally bought a hat that makes me look like a local fisherman. I don’t care.
Lunch (12:00 PM - 1:00 PM): More floating market food. I ate a pancake from a lady in a boat. I don't know what was in it, but it was absolutely wonderful.
Afternoon (1:00 PM - 3:00 PM): Thai Massage. This should be added to the itinerary of everyone who visits Bangkok. It was an hour of pure bliss. I think the masseuse actually bent me into shapes I didn’t know were humanly possible, but I walked out feeling like a new woman. Forget therapy – I need a Thai massage every week.
Afternoon (3:00 PM - 5:00 PM): Last-minute souvenir shopping. I'm buying for family and friends. The chaos of the markets is still fun! I buy some trinkets, and some silks.
Evening (5:00 PM - 8:00 PM): The grand finale. Finding a restaurant that got good reviews. I want to mark the end of a great trip. Some drinks with sunset views. The food was amazing, the drinks are well made and the service was good.
Night (8:00 PM - onwards): Packing (ugh). One last Netflix session. And probably a tear or two as I realize I have to leave this amazing city. I was ready for some adventures and food. This trip has been amazing, and I am ready to come back.
Day 4: Departure (Sobbing Optional)
Morning: Wake up with a heart full of memories. Travel back to the airport.
Afternoon: Leave Thailand.
This is just a rough outline, of course! I'm sure there will be detours, spontaneous noodle runs, and moments of pure, unadulterated bliss. And maybe, just maybe, I’ll finally conquer that gym. (Probably not.) Bangkok, you beautiful, chaotic, delicious, and slightly terrifying city, you've got a hold of my heart.
Escape to Paradise: Pretty River Valley's Cozy Blue Mountains Inn Awaits!
So, is this "Netflix, Pool, Gym & 50MWIFI River View Suite" REALLY all that? Like, REALLY REALLY?
Okay, deep breath. Let's unpack this. YES. And NO. The River View? Breathtaking. Like, "nearly dropped my phone taking pictures" breathtaking. The way the light hits the Chao Phraya at sunrise? Forget Paris, this is art. The size of the suite? Like, I could do a full sprint around the living room. (I didn't. I'm not *that* energetic after a long flight.)
The Netflix? Glorious. Binge-watched half of "Queen's Gambit" while staring at the river. Perfect. The pool? Stunning infinity pool, but... (Here's the "but") ... it's also where everyone else is trying to live their best Instagram life. So, expect some...posing. I might've accidentally photobombed a couple of "candid" shots. Sorry, influencers!
The gym? Okay, here's the truth...went once. Lifted a weight. Felt virtuous. Went back to the room, ordered a Pad Thai. It happens. The Wi-Fi? 50MWIFI? Dude, it was faster than my brain trying to process how good that Pad Thai was. No complaints whatsoever. EXCEPT, and I realize I'm nitpicking... it cut-out when I was trying to stream "The Witcher" and oh the humanity...
Let's talk Wi-Fi. Is that 50MWIFI actually legit? Because I've been promised "blazing fast" only to get dial-up speeds in the past.
Okay, friend, I feel your pain. The "blazing fast" lie is a universal travel experience. But here? This was the real deal. I mean, I was streaming 4K without a stutter. I Skyped with my mom (bless her heart, she loves seeing me in "fancy" places), and she actually heard me! No robotic, glitchy voice. It was...a miracle. So, yes, 50MWIFI is legit. You can download an entire season of a show in like, five minutes. And maybe, just maybe, stalk your ex. (Just kidding... mostly.)
But, and I have to be honest, there was one moment of pure, unadulterated frustration I'll NEVER forget... I was trying to watch *the* episode. You know the one. The shocking return. The Wi-Fi decided to drop out at. the. absolute. WORST. POSSIBLE. MOMENT. I nearly threw my phone out the window. I even swore at it. (The window, not the phone). It was a dark time. But it came back. Eventually. And I'm still salty about it.
The River View? What's the view REALLY like? Are we talking "postcard perfect" or "can barely see the river because there's a crane in the way"?
Postcard perfect, my friend. Seriously. I'm not even exaggerating. Okay, maybe a *little*. There were a couple of construction barges chugging along, but honestly, they added to the charm. Think "gritty, working-class beauty" meets "oh-my-god-that-sunset." The sky at dusk? Unbelievable. The boats with their lights twinkling on the water? Romantic as heck. I might have shed a tear or two. (Don't tell anyone.)
The best time? Early morning, when the city is waking up. You're sipping your coffee (which, by the way, the suite also had a Nespresso machine, which is a HUGE win in my book), and watching the river come alive. Or late at night, when the city lights reflect on the water. It’s magical. No, *I* am not exaggerating.
What about the gym? Is it packed with gym bros? Is it even a decent gym?
Okay, the gym. Let's get this out of the way. I am not a gym person. I'm a "walk around the markets, eat too much mango sticky rice, and then lie on a sun lounger" kind of person. But for the sake of this FAQ, I braved the weights.
It was… surprisingly decent. Not packed with gym bros. (Mostly, but I did spot one guy lifting weights with the precision of a surgeon. Intimidating.) There were treadmills, free weights, machines...all the usual suspects. And, yes, it was a decent gym. But, and here’s the key, it wasn’t *amazing*. It was a gym. It had air conditioning. I used it. I survived. And then I went and had a MASSIVE breakfast. Priorites!
Tell me about the pool. Is it as good as it looks in the pictures? Because Instagram lies, y'know.
Okay, the pool. The infinity pool. The one that probably made you click on this whole darned FAQ. It IS good. Damn good. But… and this is where the Instagram reality check comes in… it's also a social scene. Expect people taking selfies. Expect stylish swimwear. Expect, dare I say it, some posing. Don’t be surprised. It’s Bangkok, after all!
The view from the pool is spectacular; you get to see the river from a whole different perspective. There were days when I just floated, staring out at the river, feeling like I was on top of the world. And there were days when I felt a little… self-conscious, surrounded by perfectly tanned bodies. Don't let that phase you! Enjoy it. The pool is a delight.
What about the food? Can you order room service and is it any good? (Priorities, people!)
Priorities! YES. Absolutely and completely, yes. The room service menu was extensive. Pad Thai? Delicious. Green curry? Spicy and perfect. Spring rolls? Crisp and addictive. The presentation was even beautiful! I might have ordered room service for every meal, just because I could. Don't judge me.
Pro-tip: Ask for extra chili. You won't regret it. (Unless you hate chili, then… maybe skip that advice.) There was also a mini-bar. I stocked up on snacks and drinks. Because what's a luxury suite without a mountain of crisps and a fridge full of sugary goodness? It's the little things, you know?
Overall, would you recommend it? Be brutally honest.
Absolutely. Without a doubt. Despite the Instagrammers, the occasional Wi-Fi blip, and my general laziness when it comes to the gym, this suite was amazing. It’sStaynado
