The Atrium is one of the best if not the best business class hotels in Bangkok. Situated in New Petchburi Road, its just 5-10 minutes away from the City Centre. Great Location Really.

The staff right from the Resident Manager to the security and door men are very friendly. Service is also fantastic. These kind of people and quality service make the hotel feel like a home away from home.

The hotel has all the usual facilities that one would expect from a Business Class hotel. The restaurants and bars are very good indeed.

I highly recommend this hotel to everyone especially to first time visitors of Thailand. This is easily according to me the best hotel in bangkok. I will always stay here in the future.

I have to say the hotel is good enough, but my perception is based on few facts, here below.

When we arrived we had to wait more than 15 minitues beofre somebody take care of us, because we were well in advance to check-in time, no body gave any information or advise about the hotel's services and facilities like, fitness center, breakfast time, SPA, pool area and so on. We had to go to a toilette to change our dress, before getting into a little tour in the city.
When we get back to the hotel, the receptionist gave us the keys of the room, skipping again to tell us useful information about a briefing they suppose to deliver to new customer when they get finish their check-in procedure.
I was quite surprise about this behaviuor (twice in few hours); back to main comment I had the perception that because of "internet reservation" (not refubdable) we were treared like a "B" class clients; infact the room we've booked was a superior but, there were few things like size size, just 1 small window was like mickey mouse home.
Let's move to positive stuff, such as breakfast service was good with multiple choice menu, fresh fruit, and many international dishes.
Room was so and so, we had to ask for soap and shampoo few times, make up room was too late in the evening and not really clean sometimes.
People and transportation are good, despite some lack of language communication.
Location is far from downtown district and old town (grand Palace and others temples), quite far from Indian and chinese market; to go to undergaround station (MRT) Petchaburi it takes between 10 to 15 minute walking.
Otherwise 5 minutes away from Hotel there is a boat wich will bring to a internal canal near to shopping area (Pattunam stop 15 min.) or you can go till end station near to old town area, but then you have to take a taxi or tuk-tuk to get to the river or to mounuments and temples.

Be carefull, to be approached by people offering a 3 hours tuk-tuk tour asking ONLY 20 bat, because then they will bring you to travel agency to book a tour, to visit outlet or suite factory /low quality and also to gem factory where tourist are welcome and theyr try to squeeze you out. There is a good public network transportation (undergorung/MRT or Sky train/BTS) to cross the city, also because traffic jam in BKK is a mass 15 hours a day (from 6am to 10-11pm).

As a base for exploring Bangkok and the surrounding countryside we found the Atrium ideal. The hotel organised our transfer from the airport, we were expecting a taxi or a minibus but were extremely surprised when we were escorted to a limo complete with uniformed driver.
By the time we had checked in our cases were in our room which was fine. We stayed 3 nights and as we had a full itinerary we didn't have time use any of the hotel's facilities but there was a small pool and gym if thats your thing. We ate at the restaurant once which was very nice if a bit lacking in atmosphere but the breakfast buffet was perfectly adequate.
Although the location is a bit out of the way the advantage is that it's pretty quite at night and with taxis being unbelievably cheap the location wasn't a problem at all. We used taxis a lot, a couple of times the journeys lasted 45 minutes which cost £3! London cabbies take note.
The service was excellent throughout the hotel but special mention goes to the staff on the door who organised our taxis even to the point of using their own mobile phone to check exactly the location of our destination and making sure the driver knew where he was going. Marvellous!

Location is far from city centre, yet price is very good for the services.
