We stayed in the Carlton Club Room for two nights. Check-in and check-out were not on the first floor, but on the 33rd floor where there is a private lounge. In the lounge, the hosts Immy, Baiwan & Nene were friendly and smiley. Baiwan in particular was a thoughtful and cheerful woman who spoke a little Japanese. Thanks to her, our stay was very enjoyable and fulfilling. The room rate included a wide variety of delicious Japanese, Western, Chinese and Thai breakfasts, snacks and drinks in the lounge (I had a variety of wines), late check-out, use of the 30-meter pool with a large lounger area, shirt cleaning, etc., Although it was more expensive than other standard rooms, it was a great deal compared to hotel rates in Tokyo and Osaka in Japan. The room had everything we need. The bathroom was spacious, with a bathtub and separete shower room, and the toilet was a electric toilet seat, which is rare overseas. The time we spent in the room was also comfortable and great. Phun at the entrance always spoke to us. Thanks to him, I felt like a regular guest even though it was my first time staying there. The location was also great, about an 8-minute walk from BTD and Metro stations. There were also large shopping centers and supermarkets nearby, so I had no problem about shopping. If you stay at this hotel, I recommend choosing the Club room.

The Carlton Hotel is something out of the ordinary, I’ve had one of my best stays at their Bangkok property.
As soon as you enter, you will feel their warm reception, the staff are splendid! They are very professional and accommodating which made the stay even more pleasant. Special thanks to Mr. First for his attentiveness and for facilitating our departure.
The room itself is just pure class, elegance and feels very comfortable and spacious. The View is the Bangkok skyline with a beautiful rooftop swimming pool on the 10th floor.
The modernity of the property and its easy accessibility via Sukhumvit makes its location ideal, within walking distance to Terminal 21 and other attractions.
Overall, I really enjoyed my stay and it was defined one of the highlights of my vacation in Thailand. I would highly recommend staying here, it will give you value for your money, especially when you’re coming back from the noise of the city life, you are certain to find a peace of mind and a restful night’s sleep.
I would like to extend my thanks to the Carlton Team for making this experience an unforgettable one.
To the GM Mark Bulmer, you have a wonderful property and a great team. Thank you for a hospitable stay.

The Cartlon was by far one of the best hotels I've stayed in! It was the first time my wife and I have been to Bangkok and the Carlton made our stay. We booked the Carlton Room which came with a free buffet breakfast, evening drinks and appetizers, and a 3pm checkout-- plus more! It was well worth the upgrade. The hotel and accomodations were pristine! The customer service was impeccable. The food was tasty! The location was phenomenal and close to the subway and monorail which was our main choice for travel to temples and malls. If your lucky enough to meet Title, one of the concierges, he will not disappoint you and is super helpful! All in all The Carlton is top tier and 10/10 - I recommend!

Great service from the moment you step into the hotel until check out! The rooms are cleaned daily and have complete amenities like hair dryer, iron & ironing board that don't need to be requested. Their complimentary water also comes in glass bottles to minimize single-use plastic - good effort!
I had some trouble with the smart toilet and they were able to address right away. They also had a cute surprise for me before check out. 🫶

We had a great time at Carlton. Room was absolutely lovely and amenities were great. They had towels, hairdryer, iron and ironing board.
They was accommodating when we required extra towels, change of bedding etc
Mr P. Wat was a great concierge and ensured we had a great stay. He also helped loading our luggage.
Rooms were kept clean, gym was nice. Enjoyed a swim by their pool.

It was great to stay at the Carlton Club. It was easy to access, as it was only a 10-minute walk from BTS Asoke and MRT Sukhumvit stations, even with suitcases. The traffic on Sukhumvit Road in front of us is amazing, so we don't recommend taking a taxi including Grab. The staff explained it in English carefully even to those of us who can barely speak other than Japanese. In Thailand, where the temperature is high, it is very helpful to have two free laundry sheets a day. The menu was updated daily at the club lounge, and the staff were friendly and very helpful.

Stayed at the beginning of our Thailand trip for a week and loved it so much, we ended up staying for another week on the way back from our trip to Phuket . We stayed in a club room which includes lounge access ( great view from the top ) and 2 piece laundry per person complimentary laundry. The rooms are spacious , comfortable beds, shower and bathroom facilities all class! The coffee in the room has converted me from an occasional to a regular coffee drinker. The warm toilet seat and bidet is something we missed on our trip onwards.Breakfast is amazing with a massive spread. Convenient location with 2 malls within 5-8 minutes walk, Emsphere ( Benchasiri park next door for those with kids) and Terminal 21. Nok from housekeeping made sure our rooms were cleaned and replenished every day and the laundry facilities and club lounge was great too.. The staff were all very helpful, too many names to remember at breakfast , shout out to Kook who escorted us to our rooms and always smiling and welcoming us back. Really enjoyed our stay and we hope to return on future trips. Great service and experience was had by us overall. Looking forward to the Carlton hospitality again!

I cannot recommend this hotel highly enough. Brilliant location, excellent food and wonderful service.
Just a 7-10 minute walk to the BTS Skytrain station (Asok) and even closer to the Sukhumvit MRT (subway) stations, getting around Bangkok on public transport is easy from this hotel. Perfect for our visits to the Grand Palace, Wat Pho and Wat Arun temples. There are also a plethora of restaurants and bars in the close vicinity to the hotel if you fancy a change of scene.
The rooms are modern, spotlessly clean and well designed - we stayed in a Carlton Club room and this is well worth the upgrade. We appreciated the free daily laundry (2 items per person per day) as well as access to the Carlton Lounge with complimentary pre-dinner drinks and canapés from 6.00pm-8.00pm. (Special thanks to Immy and her amazing team of Nene, Nich and Wan for their wonderful, friendly and attentive service in the Carlton Lounge).
Breakfast buffet was varied and excellent quality - something for everyone, including an “egg station” where freshly made omelettes to order became a daily treat!
Next time we come to Bangkok we will be sure to stay here - thank you for a wonderful start to our holiday in Thailand!

I had a splendid stay at the Carlton, from the moment we stepped inside the service was impeccable. My wife and I felt like iur every question, concern and needs were being addressed.
The breakfast buffet was delicious with each day offering variety with different dishes and smoothies of the day. They had a wide variety as well, we eat halal and always felt like we had many options.
The service in particular was absolutely amazing! We spoke to the concierge asking about great places to shop for gifts and souvenirs. The concierge was so kind in explaining different options and recommendations and guided us to a splendid night at the asiatique the riverfront.
The room attendant Kanya HK did a fantastic job with making everything feel brand new and the bed was so fluffy, room 2517 was like a home away from home!
