Holiday Inn Express & Suites - Bangkok Pier

This Holiday Inn Express & Suites Bangkok Central Pier review covers a property that gets the fundamentals right and backs it up with a location that opens up the whole city.

Saphan Taksin BTS Station is a 4 minute walk — putting you on one of Bangkok’s most useful transit lines within minutes of leaving the hotel. Central Bangrak is also 4 minutes away and Mekhala Pier is a 7 minute walk, giving you access to the Chao Phraya River ferry network as an alternative way to move around the city. For anyone wanting to explore Bangkok without relying entirely on Grab, this location is hard to beat.

The room setup is practical and well thought out — standard room layout with good closet space, in-room amenities and a mini-kitchen area that makes longer stays considerably more comfortable. The bathroom is clean and functional.

Breakfast is included and covers the essentials well. The pool, gym and spa round out the amenities, and self-service laundry on site is a genuine practical advantage for anyone staying more than a few nights. There is also a good dining option just steps from the hotel for anyone wanting an alternative to the breakfast buffet.

A solid Bangkok base that works equally well for first time visitors and slow travelers looking for a longer stay.
