Khao Yai Bound for Bangkok, Lemontea Hotel, Platinum Mall

Hello readers! So after we checked out from Botanica Khao Yai in the morning, our driver brought us back to Bangkok, there were heavy traffic jam so by the time we arrived in Bangkok, it was around 1.30pm. Feels good to be back in bangkok as we have the freedom of walking around because we are familiar in the area already.

We had to returned to Klub hotel to collect the wallet, so we checked in first. 
First time trying Lemontea hotel because many reviews mentioned lots of Singaporean love to stay here.

It's a nice hotel with nice backdrop for you to take photos, its a decent room but i probably won't return again as it's not my preference.

Very basic and simple room.
But what got me frustrated was, we were only issue one keycard, and that means we can't leave the aircon on if we leave the room, as they have laundry services so we did our laundry on the last night, but each time you need to have both going down because there is only one key card.

After my complain in instagram stories, some of my friends tell me they find it ok leh and i can request additional keycard from the hotel. We didn't thought of it, i just thought it's plain stupid to issue just 1 card if you already make it this way such that none should stay in the room if one will to leave the room. 

Isn't it common sense to give more than 1, but i do realise that we can ask, but it's too late cos we were checking out the next day. The sound proofing is not too good too so i won't be staying here anymore.



After we settled down, we went to Pantip plaza wanting to buy a cake to give to the hotel staff before we go back to collect Jeremy wallet, but the cake sold was xmas cake and god knows how long they put there already. Jeremy suggested donuts, so we get them donuts instead!
We were thankful to the staff that report the wallet found in the room to their management that prevent us having our holiday mood ruined for this trip. I would strongly recommend Klub hotel if you are looking to stay in Pratunam area. The price is cheaper than lemontea hotel but its more newer. Their lobby is bigger too. You may refer to my 31 Dec 18 post for the Klub hotel photos.

While looking for the cake, we was surprised to chance upon my 5th uncle at bangkok. I was engrossed checking out the cakes that i thought someone is calling me, which is impossible since we was at Bangkok. But it was such coincidence! We chatted for awhile before we went to buy the donuts and retrieve the wallet at Klub hotel.
 I wanted to go Yunomori onsen but we didn't have much time left so we decided to eat at the neon night market and shop around at Platinum mall.
 The loots for this trip this time, i didn't bought much this time.

 Our dinner!


 We checked out early the next day as we are taking a 12pm flight. So we need to be at the airport by 10am. Anyway i enjoy our trip and yes i will be back soon bangkok!


Shall end for now.
Till then!
