The hotel signage was not very obvious but look for the sign for Shibuya Glow instead. The lobby of the hotel is located on 7th floor of the Shibuya Glow mall. The taxi driver was told to take the other entrance to make around the building and dropped us off on a little entrance on the side of the Shibuya Glow. There was a bell boy waiting and took care of our suitcases. Btw, the taxi trip from Suvarnabhumi airport cost about 470 (including tips and toll).

That night we decided to stay in and ordered room service instead. The menu offered both local and western fares. We ordered rad na (rice noodle with gravy), pad (rice with basil pork), (rice with braised pork feet). The food was delivered within 15 minutes and they came with an array of condiments like chopped garlic, chili, powdered chili, sugar, soy sauce, etc.

The food was very good and the price was very decent. We spent about $13 for 3 dishes.
Tips :
Most drivers don't speak English well. Make sure to have the hotel address written in Thai. We make our booking through Agoda and the hotel voucher has the address in both English and Thai.
Our taxi driver wanted the fare from Suvarnabhumi airport around 500 baht instead of using meter. But in the end it cost about 400 baht (without tips).
