Yes, it's a good deal, a very good deal (did you get them to throw in transfers as well?). I know Tubkaak very well (been twice!), wouldn't look at other hotels tbh as the Tubkaak is outstanding, and perfect time to go (ie prices skyrocket from 01 Nov).

Would spend a bit more money in Bangkok and get somewhere with a bit more soul, and better location than the Watergate!

Sorry, I know it's a 'quote' thread, but just an opinion!
