Bob-Will Marriott hold a bag?
 
I expect Bob will be able to help on this one.
When we arrive in BKK we will spend one night at the Marriott Resort and Spa BKK, before leaving the next afternoon for 2 weeks at the Marriott Beach Club Phuket.

Because we are flying to Phuket with Air Asia, they only allow 15 Kilos a person, and, I'm wondering if anyone knows if we left a bag of heavy things at the BKK Marriott would they hold them for us for 2 weeks until we return (to stay for a week at that location?)

Sue, I'm sure they will hold a bag. I've had hotels all over the world hold bags for me until I came back and it has always worked beautifully.

Yes, they will. I stayed at the Holiday Inn Silom and was traveling to Chiang Mai and Siem Reap. On return from Siem Reap, I was to stay one night at the Marriott R&S. I left luggage there for a week before I ever checked in.

To make a short story long, I will explain:

I took a taxi from the HI to the Marriott and left luggage there. Then flew to CM where I bought a BIG suitcase. I left the suitcase with CM souvenirs and used clothing at BKK and flew on to Siem Reap with the small carryon.

A week later back at BKK, I picked up the BIG bag and went to the Marriott and got the bag that I left there. That medium-sized bag had winter clothes. I put the small carryon with the summer clothes that I used in Thailand inside the BIG bag from CM that also had the souvenirs and some of the summer clothes that had been in the medium bag.

Then I flew the next day to Tokyo and left the BIG bag with the luggage storage at the airport while making a connection to Seoul. Took the medium bag with winter clothes to Seoul then Toyama, Japan, and back to Tokyo where I picked up the BIG bag (this was in January).

i leave bags there all the time and will be doing so this fall too....at least one fodorite said they refused them....i have often left things there for a week or two....just speak to the head bellman and give him some BBBB...he usually just asks me when i will return...

I am the one the Bob speaks of that got refused. Since that time we have traveled a ton and now i know how and who to ask. i think that was my problem at the marriott.... i asked the wrong person.
