Looks smart, very convenient.  I think a member suggested that there were a lot of rooms without windows.  Certainly on the website, I don't think any room picture showed a window.

Is there a pool?

There were signs of opening scheduled for Sept 9th  so it looks they kept promise.

At 3107 per night I suggest somebody else will try and report. Location is excellent , 27 steps from soi 4 but there are 30 hotels with marginally worse location in the area  charging half of that.

I think they're counting on expense account Japanese businessmen who want to be close to Soi Thaniya.

I think I just stick to my beloved Tartawan 😘

I did a search for December. No more opening offers. Cost of a normal room is prohibitively high!

Up on Business early October, just compared Suite with Breakfast, costing 18,362THB for 2 nights in Croom, whereas same at the Hilton with a pool  only costing me 9,039THB. Think I'll keep with Hilton.

Interesting the Croom website says Gym, but no photo as to contents. Also no pool. I think @reader is right, the Japanese men on expense accounts  will be the majority of the clientèle.

I'd say lets  see if market supports such level of prices . Recently we had case of Le Siam which tried to rise prices substantially. They returned to normal level after few weeks , I guess either it was some kind of glitch or simply bookings evaporated.

We have plenty of other options in the area
