Our first three nights were at the Livable Hotel Bangkok. We used it as a base to acclimate ourselves to Bangkok.
Stayed in a Superior Double Room with park view, and added the breakfast. Room was quiet and bed was very comfortable. They cleaned the room each day with new water bottles. The room has 2 USB ports, and universal power outlets. We used our North American plugs, so buying an adapter is unnecessary.
Fabulous breakfast. You pick an entree from about 10 choices, and then help yourself to the buffet with fruits, salad, breads and beverages. During our three days, the herbal tea changed each day, along with the fruits and small tea sandwiches.
We never ventured out of the nearby area during our stay. We went to the walkable Thai Vaccine Clinic (starting a backpack trip) and Suan Pakkad Palace. Easy walks, even in the heat.
The park next to the hotel is Suan Santi Phap, and is an amazingly serene place. Lots of song birds, monitor and fish near the lakes, with a walking tract all beautifully landscaped. The park has gates, so it closes at 9pm. Nearby is the Victory Monument and CenterOne Shopping mall. Nice food court and restaurants. Also a small night market adjacent under the BTS Victory Monument.
Livable Hotel Bangkok is accessed via an alley. It is actively travelled by pedestrians, motorcycles and vehicles. It is narrow, so everyone needs to be alert, but I felt safe.
Hotel has courtesy Tuk Tuk which we took upon departure.
