Staying in JW Marriot Hotel is already the highlight of the day. You could soak yourself in the luxurious bath listening to soft music, or splurge on the best steak in town by the in-house New York Steak House, all in the privacy of your own room. Shopping in MBK can be described in one word - GREAT!Things are exceptionally cheap, and the variety are so diversified. If you could speak Thai,you can buy things at an even more attractive price! Clubbing - Route 66, a paradise for clubbers who love crowds and people-watching.Ample parking space just opposite the club.

This 5 star hotel immediately made me feel at home. The lobby was beautifully adorned with 2 lilly ponds. With the aid of fine lightings, the flowers looked especially attractive and sweet against the greenish blue backdrop of the pond. The interior decoration is a blend of the spirit of Thailand and the tradition of Marriott, displaying a touch of class and elegance without being ostentatious. The guest room is imbued with such charming and peaceful ambience that it is definitely a wonderful retreat after a long day. The interior is luxuriously designed for comfort, especially the bathroom where you could unwind by soaking in the bathtub (bath salt provided), listening to soft music. The cozy...Read More

Restaurant | "Marriott Cafe"

I ordered room service from Marriott Cafe for breakfast. This is one of the best breakfast I ever had. I ordered a Dutch Pancake and a Tiramisu (total 340 Bht) The tiramisu was truly excellent, soft, creamy but not too rich. Just thinking of it is mouth-watering! The pancake was average, served with maple syrup and beautifully topped with fruits.

The breakfast set also comes with a variety of bread fresh from the bakery. This set was in such generous portion that it was enough to fill my stomach until evening.

New York Steakhouse Best of IgoUgo

Restaurant | "New York Steak House"

Quote:
New York Steak House boasted the best steak in town, recommended by some guide books. I tried the US Mignon(1500 Baht) - prime beef with black pepper sauce, which was highly recommended by the waiter and the Broccoli Monterre(140 Bht). The beef was juicy and tender. The broccoli deliciously cheesy. Not a bad choice but it is a bit overpriced. The down thing about this restaurant is it is only open for dinner.
