Mercure Bangkok Sukhumvit 11

The hotel is about to the centre of Sukhumvit Soi 11, a perfect location. It has been recently renovated so it's all new and has a well-kept and modern décor. The pool is big; the sun comes on the swimming pool after noon (in July). The gym is small and equipped with the essential, with more than four people inside you have to start alterations on the equipment. The staff is very friendly and helpful, this almost everywhere in Thailand. There is a room where you can leave your luggage whit a balance inside and if you want you can weight them before you go to check in at the airport. Finally there is not more music in the corridors at the night.

They request a security deposit of 1000 baths per day. A bad surprise if you are going to stay many days, also because at the time of booking this deposit is not mentioned anywhere. It is the only hotel I have stayed in Thailand that has asked me for a security deposit. The in-room safety box is too small, a notebook does not enter.
