Going to Bangkok? Feeling overwhelmed with hotel
choices? Well, don't be.
Here are some great
Bangkok hotels we recommend based on your
budget:
8,000-9,000 BAHT A NIGHT:
-
THE ORIENTAL HOTEL BANGKOK - One of the
world's premier hotels. The oldest
hotel in Bangkok on the bank of Chao Phraya
River. Nice colonial-style architecture. Not in
the city center though.
7,000-8,000 BAHT A NIGHT:
-
THE PENINSULA HOTEL BANGKOK - High reviews,
world awards. On the bank of the Chao Phraya
River, but on the farther island. Free hotel's
shuttle boat service takes you to BTS skytrain.
-
SUKOTHAI HOTEL BANGKOK - Beautiful
contemporary Thai architecture in beautiful
landscaped garden. A bit far from shopping areas
but worth the beauty.
-
FOUR SEASONS HOTEL BANGKOK - Right in front
of BTS skytrain. The name guarantees the luxury.
Close to most shopping malls.
6,000-7,000 BAHT A NIGHT:
-
GRAND HYATT ERAWAN HOTEL BANGKOK - Stunning
garden spa. Very close to BTS skytrain. High-end
shopping right below the hotel and just across
the street.
-
THE BANYAN TREE HOTEL BANGKOK - One of the
newest
hotels in Bangkok. The tallest hotel
building in Bangkok. Exceptional spa and
massage.
5,000-6,000 BAHT A NIGHT:
-
SHERATON GRANDE SUKUMVIT HOTEL BANGKOK -
Beautiful Thai/Bali style swimming pool garden
with soothing underwater music. Right at BTS
skytrain.
-
SHANGRI-LA HOTEL BANGKOK - On the bank of
Bangkok's Chao Phraya River. Nice pool, nice
view. But don't try the hotel's Angelini Italian
restaurant though.
4,000-5,000 BAHT A NIGHT:
-
CONRAD HOTEL BANGKOK - Contemporary hotel
for modern lifestyle. A bit of walking to do to
get to BTS skytrain. Traffic is always horrible
right in front of the hotel.
-
PLAZA ATHENEE HOTEL BANGKOK - Nice and close
to BTS skytrain. But the hotel's name might
cause pronunciation problem between you and
local taxi driver. Bring the hotel's business
card and the road name in Thai with you.
3,000-4,000 BAHT A NIGHT:
- MARRIOTT RESORT AND SPA - Right on the bank
of Bangkok's Chao Phraya River. Very much like a
secluded and relaxing resort. Not in the city
center, but free shuttle boat to BTS station
makes it all fine.
-
NAI LERT PARK, RAFFLES HOTEL BANGKOK - Lush
garden with peaceful atmosphere. Within walking
distance from BTS skytrain and shopping malls.
-
TRIPLE TWO SILOM HOTEL BANGOK
- Nice
boutique hotel with contemporary Asian design.
At night, enjoy Silom Road's street market.
2,000-3,000 BAHT A NIGHT:
-
PATUMWAN PRINCESS HOTEL BANGKOK - Great
location, but always under renovation. Right
inside MBK Shopping Center. Try the hotel's
Japanese+Korean buffet lunch at Konju
restaurant, only $25/person.
-
SOFITEL SILOM HOTEL BANGKOK - Cozy boutique
hotel in Bangkok. Few steps off the night
market on Silom road. Near BTS skytrain.
1,000-2,000 BAHT A NIGHT:
-
BUDDY LODGE KHAO SAN ROAD - Nice hotel in
the world-famous Khao San Road area. Good for
backpacker with more budget. Ask for a quiet
room. Khao San could get noisy at night.
500-1,000 BAHT A NIGHT:
- ROYAL RIVER HOTEL - On the bank of
Bangkok's Chao Phraya River. Quite difficult to
get into the city. Big room for small price. You
also get free breakfast buffet.
