We booked the TENFACE Bangkok for an extended weekend trip to Bangkok, that comprised mainly of eating, shopping, relaxing and spa. It was our first time staying there and we really enjoyed it!
There were 3 of us so we booked the two bedroom premier suite, which gave us plenty of room and space to spread our stuff and shopping. The chic apartment was really, super spacious.
I had the bedroom with the queen sized bed all to myself, my fellow travellers (sisters) shared the other bedroom, with the king sized bed. We loved the good pillows and even more, the firm mattresses. One of them who had moved in from her earlier part of the Bangkok trip, from another 5 star hotel, enjoyed TENFACE tremendously and proclaimed that TENFACE offered her, her best sleep for her entire Bangkok trip! It was all just so comfortable.
The apartment offered us ample supply of drinking water in specially packaged TENFACE bottles (handy size for our handbags too!), and while we didn’t use most of the kitchen facilities (which included a dishwasher, stove, Nespresso machine and washing machine), we did use the kitchen to make ourselves hot tea every evening, to go with our fruits.
The TV channels in the apartment were adequate, we were news junkies so having CNBC and CNN etc were good enough for us. There was a TV in the living room and a TV too in each...We booked the TENFACE Bangkok for an extended weekend trip to Bangkok, that comprised mainly of eating, shopping, relaxing and spa.

The TV channels in the apartment were adequate, we were news junkies so having CNBC and CNN etc were good enough for us. There was a TV in the living room and a TV too in each of the bedrooms. Awesome. The living room was spacious and comfortable, we had more than enough space to relax with our own tech devices, or our books.
The TENFACE stay came with a nice box of amenities, which included an extra set of toiletries (shampoo, conditioner, etc) an iPod loaded with music (which sadly we didn’t use cos we had our own), and a SIM card which we inserted into our spare iPhone.
This came in handy for all the local arrangements we needed to make (spa bookings, restaurant bookings) and especially so for when we needed to get the TENFACE Tuk Tuk to pick us up from the Ploenchit BTS station to head back to the apartment. It was literally like your personal pick-up service at your own beck and call – they came whenever we called for a pick-up and they dropped us off whenever we wanted to leave the apartment; they even dropped us at church (Christ the Redeemer church) just around the corner from TENFACE on Sunday for mass, and picked us up after too!
The box also provided us with a BTS one-day pass but we did not use that, so we returned it to the apartment. Why waste.
Breakfast was good at TENFACE’s Wanara Eatery too. Where other hotels would opt to provide a wide spread, the buffet here was not as extensive but they made up for it in quality. I particularly loved the good bread selection, well fried bacon which we had loads of (it was yummy!), grilled vegetables (very sweet), ham, sausages, the fried rice which was spot on, fresh fruits always great and the egg counter – chefs there do eggs well!
The fact that TENFACE provided us such convenient access to the BTS with its Tuk Tuk service, made up for the fact that it was not located (say) next to the shopping sky walk. Yet, the very fact that it was located away from the shopping mayhem however, gave me much respite. There was really only so much shopping I could take in, so I enjoyed the peace and quiet in the apartment and its location, much more. It was great for a chill out stay.
We also booked the airport limo service with the hotel (THB1,200 per way) for both ways and that was great to have, saved us much hassles with the regular public taxis.
I highly recommend TENFACE especially if you like to enjoy some privacy, comfort and chill-out space in your accommodations, during your trip to an otherwise, high energy Bangkok.More
