Sathorn Road and its immediate skyscraper-studded surroundings are a somewhat soulless meld of embassies, office towers, restaurants, and hotels as well. And the best thing about Hotel Ibis is their large and clean restaurant, with buffet breakfast in the morning, whose quality is very good. The best thing about the Astera Sathorn Hotel are their rooms which are extremely quiet, even though the street noise outside is maddening. The All Seasons Sathorn Hotel, formerly the 50-year old King's Hotel, has been taken over by Accor and was made into a fully renovated hip little hotel. Baan Pra Nond Bed & Breakfast is recommended to people who want to be close to everything, and want to see more than the typical tourist haunts. The Evergreen Laurel Hotel provides good internet access, great service, nice food, and is very well suited to business travelers who are not looking for 5-star accommodations. Surrounded by the consulate, embassies, immigration, office buildings, as well as a shopping mall and night bazaar, hotels in Sathorn Road are ideal for both business and leisure travelers.
Bangkok Hotels along Khao San Road
Khao San Road in Bangkok is an interesting place to begin exploring Thai life, with shopping, budget dining, and entertainment options conveniently located nearby. The Bhiman Inn is a nice little hotel which is a short walk away from the markets on Soi Rambutri. The Boonsiri Place is tourist-friendly and it is well situated near the Grand Palace. In the heart of Khao San Road, the Buddy Lodge Hotel is a great base to get your bearings, and not feel too different as there are many tourists just like you. The Diamond House is a great place to stay in; clean, modern, and has a good location. The New World City Hotel is a nice simple place you can spend nights relaxing, lying around, and reminiscing on your days explorations. Formerly a quiet local area with just a few budget guest houses, the famous Khao San Road has become an obligatory stop on the twenty-something travel trail.
Bangkok Hotels in the Old City
Bangkok hotels in the Old City are recommended for leisure travelers who want a taste of Thai history and legends. Guests at Aurum the River Place can enjoy a stunning view of the Temple of Dawn and its neighboring temples on the opposite side of the river. Situated in a tranquil location, the Swana Hotel provides convenient access to downtown Bangkok. Situated right at the gate way to the Rattanakosin Island, Golden Horse Hotel is just a 20-minute drive from all the major tourist attractions such as the Government House, the Grand Palace, and National Museum and Gallery. Hotel De Moc, formerly known as the Thai Hotel, is an inexpensive family-run hotel with a friendly atmosphere. You would not believe a hotel like the Sivalai Place could exist for such a low price; the staff are fantastically friendly, and the service is impeccable. The Old City area is becoming more popular among travelers, but if you are a shopaholic, head for Sukhumvit, Ploenchit, or Rachaprasong.
Chinatown Bangkok Hotels
Settled in the 1700's by Chinese merchants, Chinatown in Bangkok retains a large ethnic Chinese community who still continue their own traditions and religious ceremonies, while some actually run hotels in this popular area. For over 70 years, China Town Hotel has served its clients with a combination of Thai and Chinese hospitality. Rooms at the Grand China Princess Hotel are comfortable and functional, with full amenities and superb facilities to match the needs of contemporary travelers. The Grande Ville Hotel is located in the vibrant, bustling commercial district of Chinatown, right in the heart of Bangkok. The Miramar Hotel is a stylish boutique hotel that delivers a contemporary yet historic atmosphere to its guests. Like the elegant historic mansions that once lined the stately avenues of pre-war Shanghai, Shanghai Mansion Bangkok Hotel evokes the glamour, excitement, and Oriental mystique that once drew hundreds of travelers to Asia's first cosmopolitan city. Chinatown is an easy place to explore on foot, and in fact there really is no other way.
