Essentials

Novotel Bangkok Platinum Pratunam is a four-star hotel built above Platinum Shopping Mall at 220 Petchaburi Road. According to the hotel’s page on the Accor website, Ratchathewi BTS is 600 m away (about 8 minutes on foot) and Siam BTS 700 m (about 10 minutes).

That puts you on the BTS side of the network rather than the Airport Rail Link. The mall below handles most daily errands, and a taxi covers the airport run.

Overview

The mall is the point. The hotel is connected to Platinum Shopping Mall, and Platinum Fashion Mall is listed as a 1-minute walk, so a wet afternoon or a heavy shopping bag does not mean a long street walk. Central Chidlom is 1 km away.

Room sizes are modest and stated on the website: Standard 23 m2, Superior 25 m2, Deluxe, Premier, Family and Executive Park View rooms 28 m2, and one Executive Suite of 56 m2 with a separate living room. The Family Room sleeps four with one king bed and one bunk bed. Executive Park View rooms include lounge access, and one accessible room is listed.

Among the larger towers in Pratunam, this is a smaller property that feels like part of the mall. That suits a short shopping stay better than a quiet month.

Tip: Ask for a park-view room on a higher floor for a more open outlook than the street side, and plan the BTS walk for the cooler hours.
