Typically hotels pride themselves on providing its occupants with the most luxuriously filled spaces. 1000 square foot rooms, huge bathrooms and a shower large enough to fit 12 people. All of that sounds amazing, but, sometimes you want to be taken back down to reality and live within your means. Don't forget, just because you're living within your means doesn't mean you're compromising style and sophistication.
Luxx is a boutique hotel located in the central shopping district of Silom, Bangkok. If you were walking by it on the street, you might mistake it for just another store, or maybe even an apartment building (exactly what they'd want you to think!).
Luxx explains its accommodations as having your own apartment in Bangkok, and that's exactly what the rooms remind you of. The dark hardwood floors that spill up onto the walls and furniture is perfectly matched by the large window and white linens. We love the masculine accents in the grey chairs and couches &mdash we want them in our own home.
The bathroom doesn't extend the luxury of sharing this room with friends, but with the smallest rooms (with a king size bed and floor to ceiling windows!) starting at $55 and the largest suite at $100 &mdash we're sure friends can splurge for their own rooms.
What do you think of Luxx?

Great for friends that want separate rooms - but I wouldn't be happy with sharing that room (bathroom in particular) with my husband. What's so wrong with WALLS?
That tub. I just want a night alone with that tub.....
The wood is gorgeous
Nice furnishings, but a bathroom with glass walls is just - I'm looking for the right word - inappropriate.
Nice room! I actually like the glass in the bathroom- lets the light in. Lots of hotels have that (i.e., Hudson in new york). There is a little privacy curtain for those who are modest.
I stayed in a hotel in Oregon, not as nice as Luxx, but the bath/shower was right beside the bed. Gave me the heebeegeebees.
A bathtub enclosed by glass walls - sexy. A toilet, not so much.
I stayed in an aloft hotel. They have very compact rooms. They aren't as gorgeous as Luxx but there is a door for the bathroom.
I don't think I could share a wooden tub with non-family.
The entire suite has the ambiance of a moody retail showroom. I'd keep looking, wouldn't be comfortable there.
mmmmm wood
"A bathtub enclosed by glass walls - sexy. A toilet, not so much."
Then I don't recommend the Flamingo in Las Vegas...
Yikes at the clear glass encasing the bathroom- I thought there might be a sliding door for some privacy. Guess it means your spouse will see you on the loo?
Not sure why you'd be sharing a room with non-family, but there is a privacy curtain for the toilet... I love this room.
It looks to me as if there is a folding door that wraps around the bathroom.
It says 14 comments but when you click there are none.
I can understand having a tub and even a sink out in the open if it's a private room or one is just sharing with their significant other - but who really wants to sit and watch the other use the toilet?
@quiltmaster-what I meant was I couldn't use a wooden 'hotel' tub that others have used, I'm a bit germ phobic. Ok if in my own house for our family, not okay in a hotel. Again, just my heebie-jeebies, your mileage may vary!
I want that tub.
I stayed there before. The story was a bit confused as LUXX has difference type of rooms, compact (small), studio, and suite.
This place doesn't have bulk beds and the bathroom is definitely not meant to be shared.
I think, some of the rooms has glass bathroom wall, but it does have curtain (inside).
While in the picture shown is the suite, where the partitions can be opened and closed. So you don't have to stay sexy, if you don't want to.
@tuf_100000.... stayed there before... or work there?! a slight coincidence that you sign up, the same day you post this, and don't post anything else?
