Where to Stay in Bangkok

Bangkok is the center for a wide range of tourism: culture, boat travel, shopping, food,entertainment by day & by night. Bangkok is an enchanting colorful city that attracts many tourists. Each year many travelers from all over the world head to Bangkok for business and travel, especially in November through April which is the high season in Thailand. All accommodations tend to be fully booked during that period. For your convenience, you should plan ahead and make your reservations at least a few months in advance.

BangkokThere are many accommodation options in Bangkok. If you are looking for a big, high quality and affordable hotel, you would do well to locate yourself in the business center, which offers great shopping and entertainment. The sky train (BTS) and subway (MRT) provides rapid and easy transit. You will find many excellent downtown hotel choices in the area around Sukhumvit, Silom, and Siam Square.

For a more peaceful, less central situation, you can admire the beautiful scenery along both sides of Chaophraya River. You can travel easily by boat or by road, not far away from areas of historical interest (e.g. The Grand Palace & Wat Phra Kaeo). Those travelers desiring a more laid-back experience will appreciate the excellent hotel choices in the Riverside area.
