Le Siam Hotel Silom Bangkok by PCL

Le Siam Hotel is located in what appears to be the heart of the Silom district, close to public transport options, both the BTS elevated rail and the subway system. It's also close to the major Silom road through the city. There are restaurants of many kinds nearby especially in the Silom Plaza a few minutes' walk away. I had booked the larger of the rooms available which included a large bed, separate bathroom, a corner with a desk, light and drawer, a sofa, TV, bar fridge, bedside tables and lights and adequate space for hanging shirts and other garments. The building appears to be have been in operation for some years and kept very tidy and clean. It does show signs that some details need to be upgraded such as painting in the bathroom while the walls of the main room have fresh wallpaper. The shower option in this room was over the bath which is less than ideal for some people, like a more senior citizen like myself. Water was always warm and flowing adequately. The hotel provided snacks and soft drinks with several glass bottles of plain water as well. Some toiletries were available in the bathroom. The wifi worked well but needed to be reconnected at midnight, something that can be overlooked after a long day out in the city when one might be in the middle of email or some other password protected application. Breakfast included oats and other cereals, orange juice, milk, fried or boiled eggs, several hot food options, toast, jam, tea and coffee. Staff were always attentive and helpful if sometimes communication was not always spontaneous but with a genuine will to help.
