Upon touchdown, we checked into our hotel - St Regis Bangkok. I used to think the hotel was just a place for one to snooze and lose a pretty dollar; but after I veered past quarter-life crisis, I realized how wrong that assumption was and that the hotel matters as much if not more than the destination.
Can't rough these old bones up no more...
Five-star efficiency plus overpriced drinks in an elegant setting equals Honey, it's vacation time. Love honey-roasted macadamia nuts.
Talk about a warm reception. I spent too much time in bed for the wrong reason though - more on that in a while.
Too bad I couldn't fit the beautiful coffee table in our luggage.
Every morning, the wake-up call would be followed by coffee or tea served up to our room. The accompanying cookies were a good reason to get out of bed for.
We had breakfast at Viu on the third day as I wasn't feeling too well (thus spending a better part of my day in bed).
Couldn't bring myself to have anything else but pork congee for breakfast.
Kw's Spanish omelet was under-seasoned *reaches for table salt*
Need to work on cam-whoring skills.
Greenhorn.
Moving on...

You are spoilt! Even sick still go on holiday
Er, I fell ill in Bangkok... and how does going on a holiday while ill make me spoilt? Hmmm
Bernice, I'm so sorry I accidentally deleted your comment. But yes, can't overstress the importance of a good hotel!
I've fully recovered, thank you!
:)
Feel you on the hotel being increasingly important, yo! Haha we are growing old indeed.....
I share your love for BKK. Want to go back like NOW. Btw weather end of Dec was a lot less humid - perhaps we had a lucky patch of cool clouds and rain but I found it enjoyable even - for my picky skin, this was a blessing. Perhaps you could try end Dec next time ;-)
Totally agree with hotel being important! We often bum around in the hotel after a couple hours of shopping too. :D
Btw may I know how did you book the hotel room because I found a deal without breakfast from http://www.trivago.sg/bangkok-519/hotel/the-st-regis-bangkok-1702025 and was wondering if it is better to book via the hotel website.
