What guests think

At VELA be Bangkok Ratchathewi, travellers repeatedly praise the friendly, helpful staff and clean, modern rooms, while noting a convenient location near BTS and malls that sits down a side street and can be a short walk.

Several reviews highlight thin soundproofing, with street and corridor noise affecting sleep. Facilities are basic for leisure: the pool is tiny and exposed, and some rooms lack kettles. Breakfast is generally well liked, though a few found the selection modest, and occasional maintenance or hygiene hiccups (like weak shower pressure or drainage) were noted. A practical choice for short city stays.

There was no kettle in the room, and I wa a bit confused with regards to where I could get a coffee or not. The chair in the room was very flimsy and bendy, making it difficult to sit on, otherwise all good.

Rooms were very clean and in good condition, breakfast was nice and a good choice menu. Only thing poor was the pool, it was the size of an average jacuzzi, there is no bar so no relaxing by the pool with a coctail.

The street noise was very bad, with a rooster crowing and dogs fighting all night long from across the street, with minimal sound-proofing. That, and the swimming pool is really a bathtub with pretensions. Other than that, clean enough and close to transportation. Staff was nice and friendly.

Stayed here for a week with 8 members of my family. Good value for the money. Clean place, friendly staff. a bit of a walk to the BTS, but not terrible. They have a tuk tuk but it was pretty worthless. It only dispatches to the MBK center and doesn't run at all on Sunday or Monday. the driver was apparently unavailable the other times we asked to use it. Never managed to get to use it. The other criticism is that the split unit aircon has the hot side right on the balcony blowing very hot air right on the chairs and table. So you can't cool the room and enjoy the balcony at the same time. But these are minor issues. Breakfast was good. You can ask for eggs (omelettes, scrambled, over easy etc.). I didn't realize that for the first half of the week and the buffet turned out to be plenty even without it. One has to love Pad Thai for breakfast.

Staff is friendly. But hygiene of rooms leaves quite a lot to be desired. When I checked into the room, I wiped down the floor with Clorox wipes and they all turned black. Swatted 5 mosquitoes or so in the room. Curtains are stained. The water pressure from the showerhead becomes very weak as you turn the water to the warm end, probably to save water, but at the expense of the comfort of the shower. There are no kettles supplied in the room. You have to go to the restaurant downstairs to get hot water which is a source of inconvenience.

This hotel is great. It is definitely one of the newer hotels in the area, so a little pricier, but completely worth it for the condition of rooms and buildling overall. The AC works great, the balcony is quite nice, and even comes with a built-in laundry drying rack. It's also in a terrific neighborhood, just a short walk from the BTS Skytrain. There are a ton of food options nearby, and it is also within walkable distance of most of the major shopping centres. Bonus- perhaps the most comfortable hotel bed I have EVER slept on. The pool is quite small and basically right in the middle of the open-air lobby/drop-off area, so there's no privacy or space for actual swimming... but perfectly fine for a quick dip to cool down. Overall, a great spot!

Had a bit of trouble at first, getting there. The taxi's didn't know where it was. We felt it didn't match the description that made us book.

Ok budget hotel med bra pris och med gångavstånd till bla MBK Gallerian. Ligger på en bakgata med väldigt lite trafik, vilket var positivt. Rent och helt ok rum, vi hade rum med balkong. Frukosten var så där. Den stora nackdelen är att det saknas ljudisolering i rummen. Så du kan höra allt som händer i korridorerna nätterna igenom. Vi hade rum mot innergården så vi hörde ingen trafik. Hotellet borde införa tydligare regler kring gästernas beteende under vissa delar av dygnet. Det skriks och pratas nätterna igenom när gästerna kommer tillbaks till hotellet. Ingen hänsyn tas till andra gäster. Men detta kanske hör ihop att det är ett billigare hotell. Men lite isolering hade gjort susen. Fråga inte hotellet om restaurang-rekommendationer. Den som vi fick var helt värdelös, och det är pinsamt att hotellet ens kunde rekommendera det.
