Best hotel in Bangkok if money is no issue.

Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Four Seasons without a doubt. I was last November in Bangkok, tried some 5 stars hotels. Capella Bangkok, Rosewood, 137 Pillars suites but without a doubt Four Seasons is a clear winner. 

Also stayed at S 15 Sukhumvit, nice also with a location hard to beat for a budget hotel.

Next trip will stay at S 15 again, at Mercure at Soi 11, at Park Hyatt and again at Four Seasons.

I once stayed at the Peninsula down by the river.

With the floor to ceiling windows and outstanding views of the river it is very hard to beat. 

They have a private ferry that takes you to other side of the river.

Not something i would ever pay for myself, but I was speaking at a 5 day conference, all fees paid by the organisers. 

I'd rate the Peninsula in the top 3 hotels worldwide I have ever stayed at.

I rate Hyatt Regency, not as the best hotel but the best location (for mongers), on corner of Soi 13 Sukhumvit. Price around 7000 THB per night depending on season. I have seen it cheaper but 7K seems to be the average. Suites go for 13,000 THB per night. Great buffet breakfast, nice swimming pool and gym on level 6 and very cool rooftop bar. I have stayed at Park Hyatt (over 16,000Thb per night for standard room) which was very nice but not the same awesome location as Hyatt Regency.

Hyatt Regency is a very nice 5 star hotel. 1 minutes walk to Soi 11 with heaps of restaurants to choose from, and Cindy's Secret.

450 meters - 4 minutes walk to Check-in Bar. 8 minutes walk to Nana Entertainment Plaza, 9 minutes walk to Soi Cowboy. 2 minutes walk to Nana BTS if you want to venture out around Bangkok.

Street walkers (GG and LB) right out the front most nights.

When I stay there I very rarely venture further than 450 meters!

Or Sofitel, just on next block past Soi 13. I have not stayed there but still great location.

Absolutely true, for mongers like us definitely the best location, especially when you are a short time in Bangkok, for a longer period though I prefere to change locations...

On my very first couple of trips I stayed at the Banyan Tree which was incredible, from the excellent rooms to the rooftop bar and great restaurants. That was until I realised how far it was from the action, now a much cheaper place on Soi 15 right in the thick of it all.

Closeto thefun area Sofitel no doubt. Guestfriendly top rooms Belga rooftop restaurant one of the best in Bkk. Excellent executive lounge. Just after covid was like 4000thb a night Now more towards 6000

Outside fun area Banyan tree. Almost unbeatable. But pricy!
Staying now most of the time Mercure soi 11, as I managed aspecial rate there all year long at 3000thb.

Novotel Soi 20 if you want more bang for your bucks. It has a boutique feel, good swimming pool and roof bar and one of the best breakfast range and location in the business. Quiet location and walkable from skytrain.Officially four star but feels like 5. For deeper pockets, Sheraton Grande ,truly luxurious and a great live music bar

I find the Sheraton dated, service and food is top notch but I find it dated.

I’m in Bangkok for 2 weeks + in July…first trip there. I’m a Marriott/Sheraton traveler…how is the JW Marriott? Is it the “best” Marriott? Looks to be in a good location. I read in an earlier post it was being renovated a few years ago. Thanks

I use to stay in the JW Marriott all the time since over 10 years ago. Great location especially for NEP just next door but marginally longer distance to walk if you wish to go to Soi 10 and 11 or that area. I last stayed there late last year and it was fine....
