Nothing to complain about this hotel. The rooms are a bit small, but clean and comfortable.
Personnel is very friendly and provides good service.
The location is fine as well, not far from shoppingcentre Emporium and a short walk to my favorite restaurant, Suda.

This was our first time at the Rembrandt & we have to say that overall we were satisfied with the hotel. The rooms were good & clean. Its a good sized double room which is spacious. The bathroom is quite big too. I think you would need to modernise the room with a new Tv & also look into the remote panel that controls the lights & aircon as these do not function very smoothly. Breakfast was good. There was quite a variety. We had two meals at your restaurants, the Da vinci & the Mexican. Food 5/5. Ambience 4/5. Service was good at most barring one incident at the mexican restaurant which was a bit upsetting. We did find out that the last order was at 11pm at the restaurant. When we got to the restaurant it was about 10.30. We ordered our drinks & food & enjoyed the evening. The band was quite good. After we were done we requested the dessert menu. The waiter then advised us that the Kitchen was closed & that they could not accommodate our request. This was disappointing to us as the waiter correctly should have informed us in advance that the kitchen was closing & asked us if we would like to order dessert. Such a matter needs to be highlighted & the staff in the Restaurant should as a practice mention to the guest that the Kitchen is closing & should ask if there is anything more that they would like. Other than that everything was fine. Would certainly look at staying here again.

The position of the hotel is just far enough from Sukhumvit Rd to be quiet, yet it s only 5mins walk from Asok MRT & Skytrain...
Excellent breakfast, good facilities. The hotel is Big and the service not overly friendly, compared to other hotels. Rooms starting to look old, although kept very well and clean.

Nice hotel, freindly personal, super service. We loved it. Once the sky train from the airport to the city will be completed the hotel will be in easy rech from the airport beeing located by the station ASOUK. Will we ever retourn to Bangkok it will be our first choice!

every thing was perfect until check out when to our horror our bill include two adult inhouse movies.This according to the cashier was viewed on nights when we are attending events away from the room. We were there on the world allergy congress meeting. On those dates the meeting has events which last into night time. When we asked to check their system, the printout dates of the system do not tally with the dates on the bill & they can't retrieve the printout from their system on the 2nd movie. We disputed & they werent too happy, not help very much by language barrier./ Suggest the management of the hotel check their in house movie system. Something is obviously wrong. Two fewmale health care professionals are not in the habit of watching adult movies in hotel rooms.

This was my forth stay at the Rembrandt in as many years and the hotel remins one of my top choices for Bangkok. If offers almost everything that one could wish for in a four star hotel. The included buffet breakfast is excellent. The only slight disadvatages are that the hotel has no shops so one has to go outside to obtain any minor wants, such as newspapers, magazines, etc. Also the location is not exactly ideal as it is not particularly close to a BTS station. However, the obliging staff will find one a taxi very quickly. I shall probably stay at the Rembrandt once again in a years' time.

Had a great time. Restaurant a bit too expensive so we ate out. Television sets could be modernised.
I paid £44/day ($US88) for a 'Superior'...
I paid £44/day ($US88) for a 'Superior' (i.e. standard) room in July 07. This hotel is the best quality in the mid range of all the Bangkok Hotels I have stayed at (I have stayed in probably 10, including the Davis and the Majestic Grande, which I would also recommend highly).
The room and bathroom were excellent quality, modern, clean and well-appointed. Service is outstanding - we were met by smiles/sawatdees throughout the hotel and reception/cleaners were all charming. Applause please for thoroughly professional management and well-trained staff. The breakfast was very good quality.
The pool is a good size for this class of hotel in the city. However, one of the few disappointments is the gym - it has inadequate (over-used and cheap-build) equipment.
The location is quite good - although it is a 10 minute walk to the Asoke stations(1) Asoke has both BTS Skytrain and subway conections making it easy to get to most parts of Bangkok (2) The hotel's tuk-tuk is readily available to take you most of the way there (coming back is less reliable) and (3) ubiquitous cabs (when not raining) charge only US$1 to get you to Asoke.
Apart from the gymn, criticisms are: (1) The price of internet access in the business centre - outrageous (room wi-fi access was good and better value if you have your laptop) (2) The price of food and drink at the poolside and in the (admittedly good quality) restaurants.
Clearly this hotel makes up for its very attractive room rates by charging on the peripherals. Along with the poor quality of the gym, I found this sufficiently irritating that personally I would favour the Majestic Grande on Soi 2, but this is a very close call. But if you don't need a gym and are prepared to go outside the hotel for the outrageously cheap peripherals of food & drink, internet cafes, local laundries etc that the Sukhumvit sois offer, this hotel cannot be beaten for all round value and an enjoyable stay.
Tips:
(1) DO NOT STAY here if you wish to have a 'guest' in your room. The hotel says it operates a strict no guest policy. I did not test it, but my long-term Thai girlfriend who registered with me for the stay was hassled the first two times we returned to the hotel (everyone was very sweet though once it was recognised she was not a cheap date - maybe they should have some better system for introducing genuine guests to the doormen!). The absence of short-time dating makes this hotel highly attractive for families and couples of course.
(2) Some of the external laundries in the area are unusually quite expensive by Bangkok standards. The Laundry cum massage parlour 100 metres up the Soi is however good and cheap if you dont mind running the gauntlet of the 'massage sir?!' chorus!
(3) 'Lean on Tree' Thai restaurant, dead opposite the hotel entrance, has excellent quality food in a romantic garden at super prices (even by Bangkok's low price standard).
(4) This hotel would make a pretty good business venue, no doubt much cheaper than the River grandee hotels and the Sheraton/Marriot/etc chains that typically charge 2 to 3 times the rates of the Rembrandt.
In my view anyone outside the backpacker/economy grade, including those who are used to paying a hell of a lot more than this, is likely to come away delighted from a stay here.
