Kempinski is great. Glad they've opened up in Singapore.BBCDoc wrote: ↑Sun, 26 Dec 2021 11:59 amI stayed at the Bangkok Kempinski a few times and always forgot the minibar was all inclusive….
Agreed the MBS pool is a bit chilly, was there 3 years back. Had to go in and out of the hot tub.
Would agree on changing the water every night given the amount of heavy petting going on…

Re: Latest property cooling measurements, what are your thoughts?
Bangkok Kempinski is a very ritzy place, we stayed there once when we got a good deal (I don’t think the mini bar was included on our rate). It’s got a link straight into the back of Siam Paragon. Normally we will stay on the other side of the mall at the Novotel which is plenty decent.
The thing I always looked forward to is having a Cheddar & Jalapeño Bagel for breakfast at Au Bon Pain — that was located in the basement level of Paragon, and then I washed it down with a Cha Yen.
They used to have Au Bon Pain in Singapore, but that was over 20 years ago. It closed down so fast I don’t think I even got the chance to step in even once!
Of course the local food Thailand is always great. What I love about Thailand is you can walk into any eatery and order paad thai — nobody messes up that one, and it’s dirt cheap.

Stayed at the Kempinski once in 2015/16, and just like you, forgot the minibar was all inclusive. Guess I was too used to the “Singapore style” of charging for every little thing. Although don’t think changing all the water is very feasible, would be quite a waste. Unless of course you mean running it all through a heater.BBCDoc wrote: ↑Sun, 26 Dec 2021 11:59 amI stayed at the Bangkok Kempinski a few times and always forgot the minibar was all inclusive….

What I love more than Pad Thai is surprisingly the Thai omelettes. I used to get them with rice and have it for breakfast while on vacation in Thailand… was always so amazed by how such a simple dish could be done so well. So fluffy and flavorful but not oily unlike the ones in Singapore.malcontent wrote: ↑Sun, 26 Dec 2021 9:56 pmBangkok Kempinski is a very ritzy place, we stayed there once when we got a good deal (I don’t think the mini bar was included on our rate).
