Yes, I agree it's tough if you never made it to breakfast though, you missed a decent brekkie

Thanks for the positive feedback mate, appreciated. You will really like the hotel. Your rate is also excellent - if my maths is right is around 1,650 thb a night. Inclusive of breakfast that’s a great rate.

Room tip - ask for a front facing room other wise, at the rear of hotel, you will be facing a building a couple of meters from your window.

I'm looking for as quiet as possible.

What do you suggest in this regard?

South side (Soi Honey side), and the higher the floor the better would be my suggestions. My stay there was very quiet.

High floor, front side, away from the lift. These are the quietest rooms. This is a very quiet hotel...little street noise, nor hordes of noisy tour groups. Top place.

Booked here for November, is it two separate buildings as it appears to be on Google Earth and if so how easy is it to get to the gym and pool if you are in the other building?

There is no sky bridge so it's just a matter of walking out the front door of one building, walking outside to the adjacent building, and walking in the front door. It's as easy as, and exactly as walking from one building to the one next door. And yes, they are two separate buildings. I do wish they would have put a covered walkway between the two, but they didn't. 

[burgher]

Of the two buildings is one better than the other and are the same class rooms in both buildings

[qqwert]

Thanks Garzan, as you said its as easy just to walk from one building to the next.

I wonder why they built them as two blocks with no links, you can see on Google Earth that they were built at the same time.

Where do you check in is there two receptions?

Is it worth emailing them and requesting a room in the block with the pool and as mentioned in an earlier post a room on a top floor.

I do have knee and weight issues and was hoping to do a lot of swimming and light exercise during the days but minimum steps as this antagonizes the knee.

Is the pool and gym in the same block?

In my opinion, if you want easy access to the pool, bar, and breakfast room the building closer to Second Road is perhaps five minutes quicker. Acqua does have a remarkably good breakfast buffet, but if I wasn't planning on using the breakfast, the building wouldn't matter. I don't use swimming pools, or spend much time in bars, so being in the building with the pool and the bar isn't all that important to me. The rooftop I personally would get the most use out of would be the building nearest to Soi Buakhao since it has rooftop seating and shade.  

The quality of the rooms is the same for either building.

I have only actually been in the west building (the one with breakfast and the pool) so I can't say for sure that there is a duplicate reception desk in the east building, but my guess is that there is.

Given your situation, yes, I think it would be worthwhile to contact the hotel and specifically request a high floor in the pool building. Unlike 247, the elevator at Acqua goes all the way to the rooftop, so there should not be any issue with needing too many stairs. There are a few stairs to get up to the pool deck, and to get down from the pool deck to the gym, but not very many of them. 

I have only checked in at the west building (Second Road side). That is the main building as you walk through the parking lot at Honey 1 Body massage, and the first building you'd come to if you traveled up Soi 10 (deadend). Since that's the building you want to be in, that is the reception desk I would use.

And yes, I hear you. My not an architect, and not a structural engineer self says why and the heck not put a skybridge covered walkway between the two building rooftops? The two rooftop areas would go so much better together. There's the extra seating on the east building and all the facilities in the west building. If only they were somehow tied closer together...

[qqwert]

Thanks Garzan I think I will contact them and when I book in I will use the West Building.

Yes a skybridge would make sense, the only thing that I could think of is that building regulations meant they were unable to build it as one large hotel and they may have plans to put one in after a period of time.

[iMonk]

Have a small query.

I'd be bringing a couple of TG's to my room every day(One at a time of course), while some would stay the night as well (Again only one at a time), so in case I decide to book this property, should I book for two people or a single? Would booking for a single person attract any joiner fee if I bring in girls to my room?

[xc1]

Always book for 2 to avoid hassle. Plus at Acqua you can get a second key to keep power on when away. 

[nunchuck]

Here now. Top hotel. Very very pleased

It is unnecessary to book for two at this hotel; there are no hassles on this subject matter.
