TL;DR
For quieter evenings, choose a room away from the pool, bar, entertainment area and restaurant grill. Avoid rooms directly above the barbecue area even on higher floors; the tree-facing side is generally calmer, although faint music from the neighboring Normal Oriental may be audible.
Avoid ground-floor bungalow rooms: they can be quite dark and may have a damp, musty smell.
If quiet is essential, note the reportedly poor sound insulation: noise outside the windows can continue late into the night, so this hotel may not suit a peaceful stay overall.
For a quieter stay, choose the tree-facing side rather than the building by the pool. It has shade and morning birdsong, while music from the neighboring Normal Oriental is usually only mildly audible.
Avoid a room directly above the restaurant grill if food smells are a concern. A higher floor alone does not necessarily prevent barbecue odors from reaching the room.
The building with full-size balconies may suit smokers, but its rooms are smaller and noisier because it is close to the pool, entertainment and snack bar. Choose a more distant building if early-night quiet matters.
