Each room at Reflections was designed by a different artist. The hotel is still currently undergoing renovations, but I haven't experienced much noise, disturbances, or mess due to construction inside.
They have a great little shop that sells cool bags from reused materials, like empty jasmine rice bags. Lastly, there is the Reflections restaurant downstairs with funky decor and a chill vibe.
My room was designed by Pirawate Krasaesom (Wate). It's awesome. I want to live here. One really nice detail is the set of steps to nowhere in the shower. Another one is that every room has a DVD player and a copy of An Inconvenient Truth. It has a great feel to it with five distinct spaces that flow together nicely. There is a sitting space, the bench under the tree, the multi-leveled and very angular bathroom, the framed bed area, and the desk/vanity/ entertainment area. LOVE IT! I took a shower then headed to the restaurant to start filling my belly with Thai food. More on that next!

Ohmygod. That place looks so wonderful.
The first thing I thought when I got your message on Facebook and saw the background was "WHERE is this?" Since Bangkok is one of my favorite cities and the last place I stayed on Thanon Khao San was shyte, I'll mos def check this out the next time I'm there. I mean there is something about landing in Bangkok, getting settled and strutting down the road when you set out to explore with the melody of "One Night in Bangkok" spinning in your head. Yeah, I know, so NOT original and geeky, but I can't be perfect ;)
Enjoy your travels and keep chronicling them.
