Good location and Clean Hotel

4.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 19 Nov 2012
I took a risk to book Ideal hotel after reading mix reviews for it's location. It's located in a small lane behind Shibuya19 Mall, and there's a sign on the street directing you to the hotel in the lane, just have to keep a look-out for it as street-hawkers may be blocking the sign.

It's 5 mins walk to the Plantinum Mall and there are street shopping along the way and about 15mins walk to Central World and Big C is opposite Central World. From Central World another 15mins to Siam series shopping centre and MBK.

Vincent is indeed a very nice & friendly guy. We arrived in the morning and he offered us breakfast :) while they confirm the room for us. When we returned to check-in at 2pm, our luggages are already brought up to the room.

Our room is on the 4th floor facing the lane of the hotel main entrance, although there's no view but the rooms & bathrooms are clean and neat. It would be perfert if there is a shelve for toiletries in the bathroom :) Hair-dryer, electric kettle & safe box is provided in the room. Instant Noodles, coffee & tea are provide in the lobby.

Daily breakfast is simple and good for a boutique hotel.

Thumbs up for the good location, clean hotel & friendly service :)

Ideal Pratunam is a gem of a good deal when youre looking for clean and an inexpensive place to stay in Thailand. It is strategically located in the middle of the Pratunam. District within 5- 10 minutes walking distance to the malls. The rooms are clean and spacious for a boutique hotel. The elevator has access keys which make the traveler feel secure that no other people except the guests can go up the rooms. The owner , Mr Vincent is very helpful and the staff is equally friendly. Wifi is free and The complimentary breakfast is surprisingly good , compared to other boutique hotels I've been. The hotel is in an alley secluded enough to not be that noisy but near enough to where the action is. I would definitely consider staying here again and this hotel comes highly recommended for the budget traveler .

I have went to many country for travel this was the HOTEL that I feel the OWNER is REALLY friendly. The most can't believe is when I tell VINCENT that my friend was pure VEGETARIAN , Vincent volunteer to provided good breakfast for her....

'fully recommend to stay this hotel.

it's my 1st stayed in this hotel, their location right inside the small road at the back of shibuya 19th shopping mall, it's little hard to located at the first time
the room was very small, and that's make the aircon was so cold, but comfy and very clean,
the bathroom also clean but small.
and the owner was very nice, helpful and always smiling :)

at first I tough the gang street at night will be so scary, dark and noboby to walk around, but I found it's very wrong, with a 7eleven shop infront of the gang street it's not even dark and scary since lot's of people still going to 7eleven shop.

if you traveled with a budget, this is the right choice :) it's worth it really ...

The hotel is a little hard to locate the first time. otherwise, after a quick orientation around the area, there was no problem finding the hotel. Just find the 7-11 on Soi Petchburi 19. Rooms were impressive, the decor and the comfort is superb! the toilet is spacious and clean, there is a mini refrigerator with lots of storage space, 2 bottles of water complimentary, no beers/ overpriced drinks that will end up on the bill when consumed. breakfast is sufficient, food quality good. Enjoy the 24 hours free flow instant noodle and drinks at the lobby, no worry about going to bed hungry.
Just opposite the hotel is a fillipino restaurant, walk out to the main street(soi 19) there is rows of food vendors along the road, selling fruits to barbecue chicken to local cakes. that road is also the border of a maze of lanes selling clothes-its linked to the pratunam market somehow. Very near to platinum fashion mall.
Mr Vincent is very helpful. His best advice to beat the Bangkok traffic to the airport: take the airport link(express=non-stop), only about 20 mins to airport from phaya Thai station or 30 mins via the city line where there are 5 or 8 stops to airport.

Chose this hotel because of the location and we were so right about it. It's right in the middle of the shopping haven and just 3mins walk to the platinum mall. Nearby to convenient stalls too. Room was clean and neat as well.

The owner, Vincent was superbly helpful ! We asked for a few recommendations and Vincent recommended a whole list of activities that was well worth going. Overall the stay in Ideal was a very pleasant and homely feel.

The only issue is that it's a good 10-15mins walk from the BTS station. Could be solved by taking a tuk-tuk at around 50 Baht if you are lazy to walk.
