  • Some interiors feel neglected

Bottom Line

Klassique Sukhumvit is a 45-room mid-range hotel that has seen better days. This no-frills option might appeal to travelers on a budget, and it’s walking distance from the Skytrain (with a free shuttle), but it’s in a noisy, hard-to-find suburban spot under a freeway overpass. Contemporary interiors feel dreary despite heavy doses of orange, and rooms, while spacious, are noisy and lack views. Guests also report maintenance issues and grimy bathrooms. Breakfast is served only on request, and costs extra -- no other meals or drinks are available. Other features include a small meeting room, free Wi-Fi, a vending machine, and an internet terminals in the lobby. Travelers may be better off staying at the similarly priced Pinnacle Lumpinee Park Hotel, which has a more convenient downtown location, plus a pool, gym and restaurant.

Oyster Hotel Review

Klassique Sukhumvit

Scene

Mid-range hotel with attempts at contemporary decor but an overall dreary result

In an uninspiring five-story building beneath an overpass, Klassique Sukhumvit is a former Best Western hotel that has struck out on its own. Although it was renovated not long before our July 2016 visit, it feels past its prime. The lobby makes an effort at contemporary design, with bright-orange seating on black and white tiled flooring, but it still feels tired. The dated front desk has a backlit marble-effect tiled frontage and pale tan-wood paneling, while corridors are messy and dingy. The simple restaurant, with chairs in blues and purples, is left largely unused and seems neglected. Outdoor seating here and in the small garden beside the lobby is a nice touch, though the location means it can get noisy. The small glass-walled meeting room is bright but basic, with colorful striped wallpaper and busy navy-blue patterned carpet that feels like it belongs in an airport from the 1990s.

Location

Close to the Skytrain, but tricky-to-find location and far from downtown attractions

Klassique Sukhumvit is within walking distance of the elevated Skytrain -- great for beating Bangkok’s notorious traffic jams -- and the hotel also provides a shuttle to the station. But it’s tucked beneath a freeway overpass, making it tricky to locate (it’s arguably easier to reach on foot from the Skytrain than by taxi). There are two large supermarkets close by, and plenty of local-style street food if you know where to look, but anything livelier or more visitor-oriented will likely require a ride downtown. Old-town tourist attractions, in particular, are a long drive away, especially when you factor in the traffic.

  • Seven-minute walk to On Nut Skytrain station
  • 17 minutes to the Thonglor neighborhood by public transportation 
  • 19 minutes to the BITEC convention center by public transportation (12-minute drive)
  • 20 minutes to Emporium and EmQuartier shopping malls by public transportation (12-minute drive)
  • 20-minute drive to Chinatown
  • 21 minutes to Terminal 21 shopping mall by public transportation (16-minute drive)
  • 24-minute drive to Suvarnabhumi International Airport (55 minutes by public transportation)
  • 26 minutes to Lumpini Park by public transportation (13-minute drive)
  • 26-minute drive to the Grand Palace
  • 28 minutes to Siam shopping malls by public transportation (18-minute drive)
  • 28-minute drive to Don Muang International Airport
  • 32-minute drive to Ancient Siam historical park in neighboring Samut Prakan province

Rooms

Basic, worn, and noisy rooms with complaintes of maintenance issues

The relatively spacious rooms at Klassique Sukhumvit are certainly passable for a short stay, though they’re on the basic side and are generally worn and tired-looking. Entry-level, 248-square-foot (23-square-meter) Superior Rooms have comfortable beds against brightly colored accent walls, and other accent walls have striped multicolored wallpaper. Rooms have pale laminate wood flooring and well-sized built-in desks, but the windows are small and views range from unimpressive (such as of a parking lot beneath the freeway) to practically non-existent (looking out on air-conditioning units and the perimeter fence). Bathrooms are small and simple, with white walls, floors, and sinks, though guests report they can be a little dingy. Walk-in showers have power showerheads, but the textured white wall tiling here can be a bit grubby in parts. Basic miniature toiletries are provided.

The 280-square-foot (26-square-meter) Deluxe Rooms and 441-square-foot (41-square-meter) Grand Deluxe Rooms add small open closets and wet-room-style bathrooms with power showers behind curtains. Grand Deluxe Rooms also feature simple black leather-effect two-seater sofas and small coffee tables on pale blue deep-pile rugs. These rooms get slightly more natural light. The hotel also has one 495-square-foot (46-square-meter) Family Suite available, too, with one double bed and one single.

Standard amenities in all rooms include individually controlled air-conditioning, flat-screen TVs, phones, mini-fridges, coffee- and tea-making facilities, and hairdryers. All but the cheapest rooms have safes. Guests report traffic noise, poorly functioning air-conditioners, and other maintenance problems (on our visit, we noticed warped wood flooring).
