Frommer's "These days, the crusty old concrete bunker known as The Atlanta has little by way of comfort; however, it does have character, most of it left over from 1952, when it first opened." Full review
Rough Guide "A Bangkok institution, this classic, five-storey budget hotel was built in 1952 around a famously photogenic Art Deco-style lobby and continues to emphasize an old-fashioned hospitality."
Time Out "This one-time beau-monde haunt has hosted Jim Thompson and Scandinavian royalty, and a cult following of creatives and Asia obsessives." Full review
