Pornping Tower Hotel

Accommodation and facilities:
A fine hotel, the newer tower of 20 floors well constructed about 20 years ago. The guests are a good mix of Asian and European. It has a lovely old-world Lanna feel about it and in the lobby we admire the genuine quality of the marble, wood, chandeliers, very high celiling and exotic decoration. The staff are pleasant and charming. At the moment there are some signs of ‘wear and tear’, but Renovation of bedrooms is planned for May 2011. The location is excellent — near markets: night, anusarn and galare, also near river Ping - taxis, tuk-tuks and songtaews are always available. Our view from the 18th floor made us feel as if we were in a penthouse overlooking the river ping. The quiet carpeted rooms are large, with armchairs, coffee table, desk and chair. The beds are very comfortable, and sheets and pillowcases are of the highest quality Egyptian cotton. The airconditioning is quite silent and efficient. There is a fridge and TV, but only a few channels available (including BBC world). The bathroom is all in marble. Best of all — there is no irritating muzak! There are the usual bars, disco and restaurants, but these are not intrusive. There are plenty of restaurants outside but we dined a few times on the roof at the Blue Bat Barbecue - again, very good value and superb views of course. Breakfast quality is variable but plentiful; a fine variety of western and oriental food with good coffee and a fresh egg-making station. The service is reasonably efficient and the crockery has seen better days. By the pool there is a delightful seating area overlooking a well-kept water garden. All in all, an excellent hotel with good value for money and which we have been using for about 5 years.

Reservation service:
Perfect. Thank you.

There are the usual bars, disco and restaurants, but these were not intrusive. There are plenty of restaurants outside and we did not dine at the Porn Ping. Breakfast quality is variable; good fresh omelets, but generally could be better and more varied. The service was reasonably efficient but somewhat laid back; the crockery has seen better days. All in all, an excellent hotel which we have been using for about 5 years.

Our stay at the Pornping Tower was very good. We have stayed previously at the Pornping and enjoy the close proximity to the night bazaar. Breakfast has improved over previous stays.

Pornping Tower Hotel

Accommodation and facilities:
All I can say is the room was adequate, even though it was one of the newly refurbished one’s. There is no safe in the room, and in this day and age going to reception for safe deposits should be a thing of the past. Tea and coffee making in the room is a bit of a joke, large kettle but only two sachets of coffee you’ll not use much water. Wi-Fi access is charged at 100 bht per hour don’t bother this is very expensive, go to a internet cafe or to one of the many cafes or bars that offer it free while you have a drink. Don’t book the hotel to pick you up, they charge 100 bht per person, the airport car service is only 120 bht per car and there all new cars.

Reservation service:
Excellent as usual

Pornping Tower Hotel

Accommodation and facilities:
Reasonably priced. Rooms in dire need of refurbishing. Lights in room are too dim. Cannot read in morning and evening. This hotel sometimes hosts large tour groups, making the buffet breakfast facility very crowded. The staff is pleasant and fluent in English.

Reservation service:
Sawadee is ALWAYS ths best. Never have a problem with their service
