Why Bliston Residence?

Why Bliston Residence?

Blissful
Blissful Bliston! We recently spent some time at Bliston before heading down south to Koh Tao and then stayed again on our return. 
Bliston had really good sized rooms and was very clean, staffs were most friendly and helpful and the buffet breakfast was sensational. It was also very conveniently located - very close to Chidlom BTS and Central World, which had a good supermarket. We thought it was very good value. We would definitely stay there again!

Location
location is the best, staff remembered me and made me feel welcome; gym is great and they have a food delivery menu from around the city which was good…
I can't imagine a better location for a hotel, for the price, than the Bliston. You can walk in 3 minutes to Central Chitlom department store and its excellent Food Loft; you can walk in 5 minutes to the Sky Train, which will get you all around town. 
The staff are warm and professional, and the hotel sits on a nice Soi with an old Klong; all rooms are large ... you can't get more than that!

Impressive Stay
Impressive staying at Bliston. We have been staying 2 nights with Breakfast included, we got upgrade to executive room. The room is quite large living area and Bed room area like our home. Downtown station with closing to train station, as well reasonable price are the key choices we choose this hotel. Our kids love this hotel.
Thanks, for nice services. We will come back and stay next time when we are back to Bangkok.

Service
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this hotel, and will definitely stay there again. It was perfect for my husband and I and our 8 month old child, with a large cot and microwave. The service was fantastic and room even had DVD player. Location was very handy to everything including skytrain and 7 eleven, but not noisy at all as a little way down a side street.

Oasis in the bustle
Sad to Leave. An oasis in the hustle and bustle. A HOME.
My husband and I just got back, having spent 6 relaxing days at the Bliston.
Love Bangkok and stayed in the past on the river.
This time we chose to stay 'inland' and chose the Bliston having been reccomended by a 'passing ship', as a place to relax and recharge our batteries, 'bodge out' and check out spas.
The hotel is much more of a home, than a hotel, with all the hotel amenities.
Reccomended for diserning travelers searching for quiet and greenery,.Lumpini park, the largest park in Bangkok is closeby, [good for jogging].
The residence is in a little lane off the main Sukumvit road in a quiet residental area.
Saying this, shopping malls are within walking distance and I am not a great walker! The 'Central Plaza' store is litterly 5 mins walk away as is the sky train'.
Good gym.
Golf club is not too far away.
'Gianni' an excellent Italian restaurant is opposite the hotel.
I had 2 excellent 'inhouse' spa treatments and would have had more given time.
The staff could not have been nicer, or more helpfull.
The hotel is privately owned,with a 'country house' feel, making all the difference, as appose to large faceless cooperatives.
Refreshing in the razmataz, and hub of Bangkok.
The Bliston is not for travelers searching for hotels,connected to shopping malls, with all the hussle and bussle around them.
Bliston is a calm, quiet, oasis in 'that' bustle.
We will reccomend the Bliston to our travellers going to Bangkok,.
THANK YOU ALL AT THE BLISTON.

Very Nice Place
I arrived at the hotel late at night. The staff had prepared everything beforehand, making it a very nice check in experience. I even got an upgrade to a higher room category.
The kitchen came in very handy, to make a late night dinner from 7/11 (around the corner from the hotel) or preparing drinks. I wasn't able to make use of the fitness room, but it looked good. The traditional Thai massage that i got in the SPA was one of the best ever (honestly!). Staff recommendations for restaurants and bars were on the point and made this a realy nice stay. Most people stay here for long periods, but it's also very good for a short stay, and definitely preferable to any of the big name chain hotels.

Recommend
The Bliston Suwan Parkview was recommended to me by a colleague who had stayed there on a previous trip to Bangkok.
After staying there a week, I can confirm that it was a fantastic recommendation. I really enjoy the suite-style hotel room, especially when staying for more than one or two nights. I'm not one for the amenities of a hotel, but the basics (free wifi, gym, pool, food) were outstanding. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, and the hotel was remarkably clean. If you're planning to use the hotel as a launching point rather than a destination, but appreciate the ability to settle into your room at night and have it feel like home, this is the place for you. Would definitely return.

Extremely Helpful
Super! Great room, great staff (extremely helpful). This hotel is also very close to the skytrain and Siam square (one stop). I really recommend this hotel. Reservation was easy, safe and very fast!

Staff
The hotel staff was patient, kind, and very helpful despite the fact that I could not speak Thai. The hotel was beautiful. The breakfast every morning was outstanding!
I came to Bangkok with my sister and my 86 year old father for my brother's wedding. Your hotel staff was very accommodating to all of us especially my father who was in a wheelchair. Our rooms were very nice, and the view was wonderful especially at night. As I mentioned above, the buffet breakfast every morning was delicious. We especially enjoyed the "omelet bar." You have a great hotel, and when I come back to Bangkok I will certainly stay with you. Thank you.

I will be back again!!
Loved the rooms, the kitchenette is a fantastic plus, the balcony for smokers is so very convenient, the location is excellent!...
Will be staying here again! I loved all the staff, all the facilities and especially the in-house restaurant! The breakfast was fabulous as was the lunch, I will never go anywhere else! Fully recommend the location as well, right in the heart of Bangkok but without any of the noise....awesome!! Heaven!

Design


Feeling at home! The things that I like about the Bliston is the warmth feeling about the room…
The room design gives very warm feeling like home which is very convenient.
The view out the window is secular view of
Bangkok. The location of the Bliston is very good, with a short walk to BTS station and shopping center. The Artur restaurant in the building is truly international fine dining. The swimming pool, the spa on the 5th floor is very good.

oNly positive 
I recommend this hotel to everyone
Excellent - that the word to describe the hotel and staff. I had a wonderful time and at no given time did I feel afraid or unhappy. Although I was alone the whole time I felt safe and had the friendly crew to watch over me. I was given very good advise about places to visit and was very grateful.
The room was excellent and I enjoyed myself - can't wait to visit in November or January. Thank you for the service and I will be using your company in the near future. The only thing that surprised me was I had to give THB 1,000 upfront for a guarantee which will be credited to my account after a month. Excellent, excellent, excellent.

Centre of Bangkok
An amazing surprise in the centre of Bangkok. This place was a palace compared to the places we have stayed in around Southeast Asia.
The staff all spoke excellent English and were extremely helpful even accommodating us when we accidentally booked the wrong dates. Breakfast was a buffet which was a good mix if local and western food, room service was great.
The room was very large, it had a lounge room and kitchen, and the bedroom had a king-size bed. It was a welcome retreat from the busy streets of
Bangkok.

Even gave me a take away bag of food! My son and I stayed for one night at the Bliston Suwan Parkview in Bangkok. I booked online, and therefore was taking a chance on the hotel being up to my standards.
I was pleasantly surprised to find the room was spacious and extremely clean. The staff went out of their way to accomodate our stay.
I had an early departure the next morning and not enough time to eat in the restaurant, so they packed up some muffins and coffee in a take-away bag for us! I highly recommend this hotel, and will definitely stay there the next time I'm in
Bangkok.

Business Interview: ソイ・トンソン唯一の高級サービスアパート

――開館から現在に至るまでの経緯をお聞かせください

当館は2003年から5年間、シンガポールのレジデンス運営会社傘下でスタートしました。この間に国際レベルのサービスアパート運営について多くを学び、2008年4月からオーナー自ら運営に乗り出すことになったのを機に、「ブリストン・スワンパーク・ビュー」に改称しました。
オーナーグループは繊維事業から始まっています。当サービスアパートのほかにサラデーン通りのサトーン界隈でオフィスビル2棟を所有するほか、日本人の方々にもお馴染みの、「スワン・ゴルフ&カントリークラブ」(ナコンパトム県)を経営するなど、多角経営を進めています。
――ロケーションについて
ワイヤレス通りから東側、ソイ・ランスアンやソイ・トンソンの一帯には高級マンションが集中しています。ソイ・ランスアンはレストランも多くにぎやかですが、一方通行などの不便さが付きまといます。
ソイ・トンソンは緑が多い静かな通りで、住居として恵まれた環境です。スクムビット通りにもラマ4世通りも出やすく、高架鉄道(BTS)のチッロム駅にも間近で、ビジネスにもプライベートにもアクセス至便なロケーションです。意外かも知れませんが、ソイ・トンソンに建つ高級サービスアパートは当館のみです。
――日本人宿泊客も多いとのことですが?
全体の40%が日本人の方々で、その大多数がご単身もしくはご夫妻でお住まいのビジネスマンです。前述のように、どの方角にも向かいやすいことから、ビジネス利用のコーポレートがほとんどです。日本人のご利用が多いということで、日本人スタッフが常勤しています。
そのほかはほとんどが欧米諸国からの方々で、こちらはファミリーもいらっしゃいます。
――ホテル営業の許可を得たとのことですが?
幅広い層のお客様にご利用いただくため、独自マネジメントに乗り出すに当たって、ホテルサービスを開始しました。短期の宿泊客の受け入れということです。ソイ・ランスアンでは多くのサービスアパートが営業していますが、ホテル営業の認可を得ているところはほとんどありません。
ホテル営業の認可の取得は意外と難しく、サービスアパートでは必要としないサービスの導入や施設の充実、さらには環境保全といったことまで求められます。また、客層が広がることはプラスなのですが、短期宿泊は客室稼働率に波を与えることになり、マネジメントとしてはサービスアパート以上の手腕が求められます。
ビジネスの利用であっても、体を休めるための部屋ですから、それなりのスペースは必要でしょう。当館は1ベッドルーム70平米と、広々としたサービスアパートとしての部屋の造りですので、ゆったりとおくつろぎいただけます。
――景気について
多くの業界が影響を受けているのと同様に、昨今の政情不安が宿泊客を減らしています。やはり昨年の空港封鎖は、致命的な出来事でした。
客室稼働率で見ますと、昨年11―12月に落ち込み、今年1―3月で微増。そのまま持ち直すと思いきや、4月の非常事態宣言で再び落ち込みました。8月から再び増加に転じていますので、回復に向かってもらえればと期待しています。現政権の経済政策も時間が必要でしょうから、もう少し長い目で見ていきたいと思っています。
――事業拡張などの計画は?
景気の動向を見極めながらになるでしょう。タイの地方にはサービスアパートがほとんどありませんので、そのようなチャンスもうかがっています。今年の目標は、当館の客室稼働率80%維持といったところでしょうか。
――ありがとうございました

Why choose Bliston Suwan Park View Bangkok for a serviced residence?


"Location and service"


Bangkok is a vibrant city with excellent restaurants, shopping and nightlife. It also can be overwhelming, traffic clogged and extremely noisy. At Bliston Suwan Park View, one can experience all of the former and eliminate the latter. In the heart of Bangkok, located on Soi Tonson off of Ploenchit Road, Bliston is a short walk from the Chidlom BTS (sky train) stop and Central Chidlom Department Store. It has easy access to the second stage expressway. The Chidlom Skywalk connects to Central World Plaza, Isetan, and Erawan & Gaysorn Plazas. Soi Tonson is a lovely, quiet tree-lined lane with enough greenery to absorb both air pollution and noise pollution. It also is home to some favorite Bangkok restaurants, especially if one prefers Italian.

In 2008 when Bliston was created as the flagship in the hotel and serviced apartment division of Suwan Group, the Board of Directors’ vision was to build Bliston’s reputation on unequaled Thai hospitality management. Mr. Kijja Laowsuwan, Residence Manager, describes Bliston’s service as, “flexible, going the extra mile, and beyond expectation”. The name of the residence is indicative of this view to superior service. “Bliston” is derived from the word blissful, i.e. spiritual satisfaction and happiness. The “ton” is a nod to Bliston’s prime location on Soi Tonson.

Always looking to improve services and accommodation, Bliston has recently renovated the twelfth floor to create residences with a more modern ambiance in keeping with the shifting tastes of the 21st Century. In the coming year, one or two more floors will be added to this “Platinum” group of rooms. The “Classic” rooms are furnished in a more traditional style with warm woods and elegant silk trimmings. Also newly renovated, the swimming pool, located on the 5th floor as are all the public areas, now boasts a pool bar and restaurant. A buffet breakfast is served daily in this modern class-enclosed restaurant beside the pool.

A sister company, Suwan Golf and Country Club is a five-star golf course on the outskirts of Bangkok in Nakorn Pathom Province. A premier golf course in Asia, Suwan Golf hosted an Asian Golf Tour event in February/ March 2009. Convenient for Bliston residents, being only a forty-minute drive away, Bliston residents with a minimum one-year lease can now enjoy a free one-year membership at Suwan Golf.

Bliston is looking to the future with plans to expand to other properties possibly through a management agreement or by taking over an existing building. Currently, there is only one Bliston residence. The future might bring additional residences in Chiang Mai, Pukket or even another in Bangkok.

With a total 152 apartments, one can choose from three types of one-bedroom apartment, three types of two-bedroom apartment or a three-bedroom apartment. All apartments are fully furnished with linens, flatware, silverware, kitchen appliances, a flat screen TV, and entertainment center. Bathrooms are en suite with showers in all, plus a bathtub in at least one. Washers and dryers or all-in-one units are provided with 2 and 3-bedroom apartments and are available upon request for 1-bedroom apartments. Wi-Fi and port Internet service is provided. Other services include: 24-hour security, CCTV surveillance, parking, daily maid service, 24-hour maintenance and laundry service. Facilities include: self-service laundry, sauna and steam room, a large and small meeting room, a lobby restaurant (currently being renovated), aerobics room, children’s play area and a fully equipped gym. Kitchens are equipped with an oven, microwave, large refrigerator and a 2 to 4 burner stove top.

From a Bliston serviced apartment one has a view to suit the personality - either the greenery of Soi Tonson or the bustle of Ploenchit Road. Floors 1-4 are parking areas. All public areas are located on the 5th floor. Residences are located on floors 6 through 20. There are designated non-smoking floors.

Ideal for business people needing accommodation in the heart of Bangkok, Bliston Suwan Park View offers service to fit all needs. Staff members speak a variety of languages – Thai, English, Japanese and some continental European languages. Why look any further? Enjoy the bliss of being catered for in comfort and style while enjoying all the options available from Bliston’s prime location.
