Hope Land Hotel Sukhumvit 8

The hotel is in a great location. But the hotel needs some major improvements, especially for the price. We checked into a room where the AC wasn't working well, the room was very outdated with a dirty sofa and walls, and the bed wasn't comfortable. So we ended up upgrading to the "Deluxe" suite for 400 baht, which was 100 baht more than what is advertised for "walk-in" pricing. The front desk attendants claimed since I got it on Agoda I had to pay 400 baht instead of their advertised upgrade rate of 300 baht. I asked if the beds were better for the Deluxe upgrades and they said yes. However, the beds are the same in all the rooms, which aren't very comfy. I also paid extra for the hot plate, but there were no cooking utensils or pots whatsoever. The room is old with scratches on the walls and very uncomfortable couch that was dirty. Some lights don't work including on the vanity area which would have been really nice to have for this upgraded room. The AC doesn't work well, and we were hot and sticky. At this point I feel like I'm a bother by the way the attendants act so I don't want ask to switch rooms. The pool and steam room areas are old, moldy, and rusty. They claim they have had renovations but I can tell you they have not. The location is great if you want to be near the city centre and Sukhumvit area but this hotel is not worth the 2100 baht per night. The buffet wasn't too bad. They had lots of options but it ends at 10am. I'm not one to complain but I had to let others know what they are truly in for. 🤷🏽‍♀️
