Hotel Emerald Hotel Bangkok, Banguecoque, Tailândia (Bangkok, Thailand)

Opened in 1992 and continually upgraded, The Emerald Hotel is located in the midst of one of Bangkok's busiest commercial and entertainment hubs. Unlike most major cities there is no ''central or downtown'' Bangkok.. Instead there are three or four different areas of the city which all provide shopping, entertainment and business facilities. The Emerald Hotel is in one of these areas on Rachadapisek Road, locally abbreviated to ''Rachada''. The hotel is conveniently located within 2 minutes walk from one of Bangkok's new underground (MRT) stations, making it quickly accessible to almost any part of the city. Train journeys ranging from 10- 20 minutes will take you to some of the other well known areas - Sunhumvit & Siam Square. Using the MRT and above ground Sky Train connection you can also easily get to Chaopaya River where river cruise boats depart regularly from underneath the station. Travelling in the opposite direction on the MRT from the hotel you can also directly access Bangkok's famous Weekend Market - Chatuchak. This 620 room hotel has well appointed rooms and suites in two buildings. All guest rooms are luxuriously furnished and tastefully decorated in soft, pastel colours which reflect a warm, comfortable and relaxed ambience. The hotel also has some of the largest meetings and conventions facilities in the city. The grand Ballroom can accommodate up to 1500 people and a further 12 additional meeting rooms are also available. For dining and entertainment, the hotel offers a choice of four restaurants and lounges. Leisure facilities include a fully equipped two-level health club, plus a roof top swimming pool. High speed internet access is available in all guest rooms and public areas.
