I've been told that the Somerset Hotel has 5 new exclusive suites that are not available to book online and there are no pictures on any internet sites. They are saying that the pictures on the internet are old pictures and that the hotel has a new owner.

Can anyone validate this story? Or is it just a con? Thanks!

Hi,
I Was At Somerset Hotel, Sukimvit In Nov First Week.
I Did The Booking Via The Internet And Did Not Have Any Problem Checking In.
The Rooms Are Good Although The Hotel Is Old . I Was Told They Are Going To Re Do The Hotel Very Soon.
The Hotel Is Very Friendly To Guest(!) In Fact The Reception Would Not Know As The Elevator Is On The Ground Floor.
The Breakfast Is Good.
Fot The Price They Are Offereing I Can Bet It Is A Good Hotel.
Also You Can Reach All The Night Life Places Walking.

Having stayed at the Somerset before I wanted to book but was told by hotel mgr that they were closed until 1 July 06 for rennovation. Should be an even better place to stay.
