Bangkok Hotels: Where to Stay?By Monice Dulcinea Finding a Thailand hotel is super easy these days. Do a search at google, and youll have some pretty good idea of where you want to stay. Plus, you can just go ahead and book for a Bangkok Thailand hotel right online. If you plan to find a Bangkok hotel, you have tons of choices. Stay at Kaosan road if youre a backpacker. If youre not one, then stay close to the skytrain if you love shopping. If youre into good atmosphere and dont care much about getting around the city, then stay close to the Chao Phraya river, which is the main river of Bangkok. If you want to stay at Kaosan road, you dont even need to book in advance. You can just walk around to see the guesthouse you like, and then just walk in. They always have a vacancy. If you prefer to stay in the city center in order to get around easily for shopping, (and let me tell you, Bangkok is shoppers paradise -- Hong Kong isnt cheap... but Bangkok is) then I suggest you check out Patumwan Princess hotel Bangkok. Its right in the MBK shopping center (fake jeans, watches and bags) and also right at the Siam Square skytrain station. Grand Hyatt Erawan hotel Bangkok, Le Meridien and the Four Seasons hotel Bangkok are more luxurious. Theyre right at the intersection where you can see Zen and Isetan shopping malls right across the street. The Siam Square (where they sell funky clothing) and the Chidlom (Central shopping mall) skytrain stations are within minutes away. A lot of tourists like to stay at the Asia hotel Bangkok, which is right at a Rajdevi skytrain station (one station away from MBK shopping center). It may be cheap, but its kind of old. Well, very old actually. I dont recommend it. But its totally up to you. If you dont care much about shopping in Bangkok, then Id really suggest you stay at the Sukothai hotel Bangkok. Its a classy and luxurious Thai-styled hotel --but youll have to take a taxi if you want to go anywhere. Or even better, stay by the Chao Phraya river if you can. It will give you a different feel of Bangkok, especially at night. Its rather expensive though, especially if you want to stay at the world-renowned Oriental hotel Bangkok or the Peninsula hotel Bangkok. If these two are too expensive for you, try Shangri-la hotel Bangkok. It may be a little bit cheaper. And dont forget to book a Bangkok river cruise dinner at your hotel. The Chao Praya river is glamorous at night -- with a view of well-lit Wat Arun. To get around town from your Bangkok hotel, you can ask the hotels doorman to help you get a taxi. Its not expensive at all.
