We stayed at the hotel for 6 nights with our 3 children - 14, 13, 9 years. Our immediate impression was fantastic, the rooms are spacious (we had interconnecting rooms) with wide screen TVs, large bathroom (not the greatest bathroom if you were sharing with a friend as there is not a lot of privacy - but for a family the bathroom was perfect). Our kids loved the 18 hole putting green. The pool on the hotel's website looks small but in fact it was a rather decent lap pool (not at all deep - 1.2m). There were separate mens and womens spa/sauna/steam room facilities which were very luxurious. The coffee shop in the foyer sold their delicious cakes, pies, quiches etc for 1/2 price after 6pm. The staff were great, the breakfast buffet had a wide selection of foods to cater for all tastes. We had the seafood dinner buffet which was lovely but extremely expensive. At first we thought the location of the hotel was not the greatest but after the first day we realised that Bangkok is such a large city that no matter what hotel you chose you would have to travel some distance to see the sights. The hotel is a short walk to the skytrain and train station. The only downside I would say is that there are no restaurants (that we could find) in close proximity to the hotel so we tended to catch the skytrain to different restaurants. On the whole we loved the hotel and would definitely recommend it. If we were to return to Bangkok we would not hesitate in staying there again.

Stayed at the Grand Millenium in BKK from the 27.02.2008-01.03.2008.
This was my first time in BKK and after reading many reviews here on tripadvisor I decided to give the GM a try as it's one of the newest additions to the many 5 star hotels in Bangkok. I didn't regret my choice at all. Altough there is always a traffice jam in the Sukhumvit area the skytrain station Asoke was just a 5 min walk from our hotel and it's the best way to get around the city centre.

We checked into the hotel around lunch time and could get to our room immediately. As I spent almost 1 1/2 in the stuffy taxi from the airport I was glad to be able to go the room. Check-in staff was nice and efficient and you felt truly welcomed there. Everything is brand new and looks great from the inside and outside. We had our room on the 9th floor and the room is just great. It's quite large for a standard room, has very good beds, flatscreen tv (with many tv channels in 5 languages), a large desk, big bathroom and rainshower etc.
Everything worked and was spotless just as expected from a good hotel. Breakfast was included in our room rate and was served on the 2nd floor in the hotel restaurant. The selection was really huge and quite good. You had fresh fruits, thai food, western food, japanese food, dim sum, pancake stand, salad, cold meat, cheese etc etc. The quality was not bad however the fruits were not so ripe and therefore not always tasty which I find surprising considering that the fruits are all local. However that's one very small detail.
I tried out the spa which was splendid. Everything is nicely decorated, the privaterooms are well designed, the staff is friendly and one can choose from many different treatments including the traditional thai massage. I found the prices were quite cheap and it was really good value for money.
Also the hotel offers individual tours to many attractions in Bangkok. We booked 2 tours with them and everything went smoothly. We had a tour of the Golden Buddha, Emerald Buddha, the palace and also a tour of the floating market which is about 1 hour by car from Bangkok and leaves already at 07.30AM.
To sum it up:
-great value for money
- very good hotel
-very nice furnished
-good location
-great spa
-nice staff

A truly great hotel. Close to the Skytrain, fantastic rooms and views

We wanted to begin our two week trip to Thailand a good but not too expensive hotel. This was just the job. It's very new so has a really fresh feel and spacious. The room was a fantastic (went for their basic rooms) with a bed my wife is still raving about such was its size and comfort. The atrium in the middle of the hotel is very impressive but not so good if you suffer from vertigo as all the rooms are off the atrium.

The only down side (but it's the same with most hotels in Thailand) is that if you're looking to eat or drink in the hotel you might find it a bit of a budget buster - my wallet yelped when the bill came for three capuccinos! However, the hotel is in a great location with the sky train nearby and only a short taxi ride from lots of lovely places to eat.
