Many good and new hotels in the area, no reason to book a chain unless you want the points. Big fan of Majestic Grande before but don't see myself going back to the rebrand.
Majestic Grande is being refurbished currently. It is to be rebranded as a Double Tree property by March or so.
It would be best to contact Majestic Suites/Grande reservations via mail, they are very prompt.
I think they are pushing tourists to take Visas at their local embassies and reduce the massive queues at the VOA. I have seen the entire plane from India lining up at times. It makes sense for VOA to be reserved for people who decided on a quick weekend getaway instead of package tourists.
I have stayed there for a short trip, good rooms but a lot of tourists (probably groups). I don't think the hotel is guest friendly anymore. Same price, Soi 2 Majestic Grande is pretty good, nice pool, don't know about the gym.
Haven't stayed at four points but would strongly recommend Majestic Grande. Nana is the hotspot for freelancers and a very short walk from the hotel, also no issues with joiners.
