Scene
Large, imposing lobby with high ceilings and little seating
The Avani Atrium is popular with business travelers, as it has extensive conference facilities and offers easy access to the airport and downtown. The hotel is ultra-modern, with its front desk and sprawling lobby set under rising columns with striking light installations and a towering art sculpture in the center. The imposing lobby, renovated in 2014, offers little seating, making it more of a space to pass through en route to the rooms and hotel facilities above it than an area for lounging. The hotel is popular with business travelers.
Location
Slightly outside the city center, within a 10-minute walk to the subway station
The Avani Atrium is located just outside central Bangkok, along New Petchaburi Road. It's a 10-minute walk to the Petchaburi subway station, which makes it easy to get to other parts of the city, and the Makkasan station airport link line is about a 15-minute ride to Suvarnabhumi International Airport. Petchaburi Road gets congested and gridlocked during rush hour, and there's not many restaurants and bars near the hotel, so it can feel kind of isolated at night. This neighborhood is more of a business area, with lots of companies, so while it bustles by day, it goes a bit dead after sundown.
Rooms
Rooms are modern, with 40-inch flat-screen TVs, sofas, minibars, and free Wi-Fi
Rooms at the Avani Atrium come in several types and sizes. All are modern, and include 40-inch flat-screen TVs, free Wi-Fi, sofas, minibars, coffeemakers, safe-deposit boxes, bathrobes and slippers, hairdryers, and toiletries. Premier Rooms have showers but no tubs. Deluxe Rooms feature walk-in rain showers. Grand Executive Suites have kitchenettes with microwaves, dining areas, whirlpool tubs in black marble bathrooms, and hi-fi stereo systems. All rooms have large windows overlooking the city, but views are not spectacular.

Swimming pool, state-of-the-art fitness center, and excellent conference facilities
