List of Bangkok Hotels by Area
Bangkok Hotels and their areas
Bangkok as a metropolitan city is divided into many areas. We call it "Ket", which means district; this is further divided into "Kwang', which means sub-district. Many times, we call the area by the name of the street.
Each area has a different atmosphere, e.g. population density. Some areas are full of working offices, easy access for mass communication, lots of shopping malls. So the main factor to help you select the hotel is your budget and your preference to the area.

This place offers the best view of Bangkok since it is right next to the river. From here, it is easy to access the old city areas, where Bangkok attractions are located next to the river. It is also convenient to take a ride on the sky train to travel to the market and shopping area. Plus, many hotels provide hotel shuttle boat for your convenience.
Khaosan Road is considered the Backpacker Street, as there are many short stay cheaper guest houses, cheap Bangkok hotels, restaurants and street venders. Khaosan Road was made for tourists who are traveling around Thailand and need to find decent accommodations without reservations. It is a busy area, as there are many street vendors. From here, it is easy to access the historical "old city" and temple areas.
If you are going to be touring around Thailand, this is a great place for you to stay. Here are our recommended hotels for you when in Khaosan Road.
The Pratunam Market area is famous for clothes; this is the shopping Mecca of Bangkok. It is the biggest wholesale and retail apparel market. There are many interesting shopping malls in the Pratunam Market area, that consists of Pantip Plaza (IT Mall), Central World Shopping Center; Big C Super Center (which is similar to a super Wall Mart, K-Mart or Pathmark, but with movie theaters) and Kesorn Plaza, which is a center for luxury and brand name products.
With Pratunam Market being the center point, the surrounding hotels with indicated approximate distance from the market are:
Sukhumvit Road is the business and luxury residential district. To find affordable hotels in the economy or moderate level in this district is not easy. Instead you will be able to stay at very clean and affordable guest houses.
There are advantages of being in this area. First, it is close to the BTS sky train; it is easy to get around Bangkok from here; there are any many small shops and street vendors, where you will be able to find very nice gifts at very reasonable prices; and for 'shopaholics' there are trendy shopping malls, such as The Emporium and Sogo.
The street is called Thanon vitayu in Thai. Many of the embassy offices are located here. There are also many office buildings, service apartments and luxury hotels. It is a great location for business travelers, since it is right in the middle of the city. From here, it is also easy to go to the night bazaar, and the city park of Bangkok named Suan Lum Pini.
Silom is a business district. At night, this street turns into a very exciting place for shopping and red light district, which is called Patpong Night Market. Night clubs, pubs, shows and street vendors attract night travelers to this market everyday. If you stay here, it is a convenient area from where you can travel to other places by sky train and subway.
Siam shopping area is an intersection between Ratchtewee Road and Rama I Road. There are five big shopping centers consisting of MBK, Siam square, Siam Paragon, Siam Discovery and Siam Center. The shopping malls sell from artifact products to brand name products. Those who love shopping should consider staying close to this area.
Yoawarat is a fantastic place to visit both at day time and night time. There are many shopping areas here, such as gold shops, food market, gift shops and fabric market. This area is also an important Bangkok attraction, and from here it is very easy to access other Bangkok attractions.
Ratchadapisek Road is an important street with many shopping malls, movie theaters, business offices and hotels. This street has a subway line, which makes it easy to travel to other places.
This is an interesting area to stay in because it is not a touristy area. There are a lot of luxury hotels with very affordable prices; they have exceptional facilities; it is convenient to access the sky train from here and it is easy to get a cab; the neighborhood is safe to go on a nightly walk and it is close to Big C shopping mall.
