Hotel in Bangkok Thailand. The Peninsula Bangkok Thailand. Is this a good hotel in Bangkok?

It's not just a good hotel in Bangkok, it's one of the best hotels anywhere in the world. It was ranked the best hotel in the world a few years ago by Travel and Leisure Magazine and is still consistently rated among the top ten hotels in the world. I live in Bangkok and have no need to stay in hotels, but a couple of friends who have stayed there have said it's the best hotel they've ever stayed in. The Peninsula and the Oriental are considered by many to be the top two hotels in Bangkok.
