Traveler Review of the week: D2 Hotel Chiang Mai: "absolutely gorgeous"

I just had to add my recommendation for the D2 hotel to this forum. It was absolutely faultless. Yes, it's modern but I don't believe that this detracts from the Thai experience. Certainly it's not old/traditional Thai but I think it perfectly reflects the young and modern Thai. Just as the Raffles in Singapore and the Peninsular in Hong Kong etc are old/traditional hotels but the newer hotels such as Raffles Plaza or Westin are modern Singapore, I think the D2 is very Thai but up to date with the new generation. It certainly doesn't detract from the "Thai Experience" but rather adds a new dimension.
The staff are everything you'd expect of Thailand - warm, friendly and hospitable. The D2 also displays wonderful touches of the Thai's excellent sense of humour - welcome drinks were served in round bottom glasses which swivelled around on the tray (assisted by the smiling waiter). The lamp shades in the foyer are tilted at a precarious angle and the bar is decorated with huge acrylic "ice cubes". Attention to detail is evident in every corner, nook and cranny. The hotel is comfortable and welcoming while at the same time being elegant and spotlessly clean.
There is a terrific reading room with tea and coffee and board games. The pool, while small is lovely and there is even an attendant who sets up the deck chair when you arrive ... one wouldn't want madam to have to lay out her own towel would one? They even offer a complimentary 5 minute shoulder massage beside the pool along with herbal tea.
Location is perfect - 50 metres from the night market/'bazaar but the hotel is relaxing and peaceful.
The whole aura of the D2 is minimalist luxury and although I'm usually a "traditional girl" I loved every minute of my stay.

Traveler Reviews: Royal Benja Hotel, 39 Sukhumvit Rd. Bangkok

Someone said he had some great experiences at the Royal Benja Hotel, so we decided to check them out. I tried checking the rates through a travel agent and travel site, but the cheapest price I got was by actually calling the hotel. The people were very nice and helpful in finding the cheapest rate available. I got the room here for $10 cheaper than on ANY Internet site or travel agent I could find. I paid only $35 a night for a very nice room here.
The hotel itself is pretty well-maintained, especially in comparison to many other moderately priced Bangkok places. The staff was even friendlier in person than they had been on the phone. They helped me get settled and asked if I needed advice on where to go and what to see. All the front desk staff had excellent English skills and were impeccably groomed. The lobby itself looked like it belonged in a more expensive hotel. The room was spacious and very clean. I think they had just put in new carpet and decorations before I had come, as everything was in great shape. The decorations were not too cheap and added some class to the room.
The hotel also has an excellent restaurant and can start you off with a great buffet-style breakfast, which has a variety of Western dishes on it. The quality and variety was excellent, but as with any hotel restaurant, it is a bit more expensive than a local place. If you have a sensitive belly, you may consider starting your day like this. The hotel itself also seemed very safe and secure, and other guests all seemed to be nice people and families.
The location is almost perfect. You will be close to a rail stop, so getting around is easy. The hotel also had some taxi drivers they can call for you who are honest and reliable. These drivers want to maintain a good relationship with the hotel, so they will not overcharge you. The hotel is also close to the popular Sukhumvit Road, which can be a plus or a minus. There are numerous entertainment venues and stores here, but there are also a few go-go bars, and you will see prostitutes here. But this seems to be something that you see in many major hotel areas in Thailand--at least most that we went past - so it's not just a problem with this hotel. I'm no expert on Thailand, but I did notice that all the affordable hotels seemed to have some sort of adult entertainment around them.
Overall, it was a great place, and I could recommend it to anyone.
