Essentials
Mercure Bangkok Makkasan is a 180-room hotel in Makkasan, built around the Airport Rail Link. The hotel’s page on the Accor website puts both Makkasan station (Airport Rail Link) and Phetchaburi MRT station at about 1 km, a 5 minute walk or 2 minute drive, and the hotel runs a complimentary shuttle to Phetchaburi MRT Exit 3.
The point of staying here is the airport train: a late arrival or early flight needs one rail ride, not a taxi through the city. Makkasan connects on to Phetchaburi MRT, so the Blue Line is one interchange away. The airport to city guide covers the other ways in from Suvarnabhumi.
Overview
The hotel opened in May 2017 and has 180 rooms and suites. Superior and Privilege rooms are both 25 m2 with a king bed or two single beds, and the suites are 45 m2 with a king bed. Each type takes up to three guests. Rooms are compact, so a long stay with a lot of luggage is easier in the suites.
The tower puts its facilities up high: the all-day restaurant on the 8th floor, the pool bar and the fitness centre on the 10th. Accor lists the hotel as wheelchair accessible.
Other options in the district, including serviced apartments with kitchens, are compared in the Ratchada and Rama 9 guide. Mercure is the pick when the airport train matters more than the neighbourhood.
Tip: Phone the hotel on +66 2 115 3333 before you land: the hotel’s page says airport and MRT pick-up can be arranged by calling that number, and the shuttle saves the walk with bags along Kamphaeng Phet 7 Road.
Food and drink
The Station
The all-day restaurant is on the 8th floor and serves Asian and international cuisine, as a buffet or à la carte. A live cooking station is part of the buffet. It is the easy choice for breakfast before an early flight.
The Pool Bar
On the 10th floor beside the pool, with drinks, cocktails and light bites.
M Wine Lounge
A lounge serving grilled steaks, comfort dishes, wines, whiskies and cocktails. It suits a quiet dinner without leaving the hotel.
Amenities
The outdoor swimming pool has city views and a garden area. The fitness centre is on the 10th floor and open from 6:00 to 22:00, so a pool and gym visit is one lift ride from the restaurant.
The free shuttle to Phetchaburi MRT Exit 3 is the main transport feature, and the hotel can arrange airport and MRT pick-up on request.

Where to stay
Pick the area before the hotel
Traffic and heat make Bangkok distances feel longer than they look on a map, so the area shapes a trip more than the hotel does. Our guides match areas to trip types and explain the trade-offs.
