Location is the most important fact that can ease your stay or make it harsh in Bangkok.
Staying near public transportation is the key of everything, which will make you move
from one spot in to another while saving time and money.
1st let us give you an idea about the major public transportations in Bangkok, after we
will show you the regions & hotels that are located just in the heart of famous shopping
districts and vibrant booming nightlife.
The BTS sky train is one of the most popular transportation ways in the city which has
sukhumvit & Silom Line intersects in Siam station.
The other popular way of transportation is the MRT underground metro line, which is also
a fast and cheap way to move in the city Staying near these two lines will give you
access to the most popular touristic areas from shopping, eating and nightlife.
As for tourists Sukhumvit is one of the most popular regions to stay in Bangkok since it
is in the middle of every action from luxury to street shopping, street food, and its famous
night life spots.
If you are in to nightlife, then you can stay around Nana or Asok station which combines
the both MRT & BTS at Asok area.
One of the popular streets in this area is sukhumvit 11, which has many pubs restaurants
massage shops, street food stalls and Indian food.
Hotel Ambassador is a good choice to stay in sukhumvit 11, since it’s a 4-star affordable
hotel ,budget rooms are not that big but the ambience of the hotel and its amenities from
breakfast to the swimming pool to the gym is considered a good choice to stay in.
Another affordable hotel is Royal president located in sukhumvit 15 also very affordable
room rates in a very strategic location just in the middle of asok and nana bts stations.
This hotel has big budget rooms and great welcoming stuff, which makes your stay a pleasant
experience.
The breakfast could be considered acceptable and the swimming pool is small all in all
it a great spot to stay in Sukhumvit area
If you like to stay just at the middle of the nightlife and exactly in Soi 4 nana, than IBIS nana is the perfect choice, a budget
hotel with international standards and great breakfast.
Now if you are a luxury type traveler than Sofitel hotel between sukhumvit 13 to 15 is
the right choice a high rise building with luxury rooms full of style in every corner
for cozy and romantic moments.
This hotel is considered a high budget type comparing to the two previous mentioned hotels.
If you want to stay near the action but little bit In a calmer area than Thonglor starting
from sukhumvit soi 55 would be a good choice, since you are not far from the nightlife spots
and also near the BTS station thonglor.
Grande Center point hotel is a great choice to stay in Thonglor area, a fantastic decorated
hotel with elegant big rooms and great views of Bangkok city, the atmosphere is totally
perfect and your stay will be amazing experience in it.
Now if you are in to shopping more than nightlife than staying in Siam & pratunam area will
be a wonderful choice, since it’s the center of shopping district in down town Bangkok.
Siam as we mentioned intersects between sukhumvit and silom BTS train line.
This area contains many malls and shopping streets which all are accessible by BTS skytrain
or MRT underground metro.
Like MBK mall which has a direct access from BTS national stadium.
Or Pantip plaza and platinum fashion mall that are just 5 min walk from Rachatewii station.

budget prices and the location is considered amazing near the BTS, a swimming pool and
gym facilities are also available.

hotel is a perfect choice where shopping will be just a foot steps from your hotel door.

international standards and amazing breakfast and more over a cheering reception.
Amari water gate hotel combines between fantastic location and luxury accommodation, so if you
like to pamper yourself in a beautiful decorated rooms, with an amazing rooftop pool and delicious
breakfast just at the middle of every famous shopping area than you are in the right hotel.
So as a summery if you are a nightlife owl than lower sukhumvit is a perfect area to
stay for you, and if you are a shopaholic tourist than siam and pratunam are the best
choices.
In both cases as long as you stay near the public transportations you can move from one
area in to the other without losing time and money.
