The best areas

Sukhumvit

Hotels and restaurants at every price along the BTS Skytrain. Easy to get around, busy at night.

Hotels in Sukhumvit

Riverside

Hotels on the Chao Phraya, with river boats to the Grand Palace and Wat Arun. Calmer evenings, often pricier. Good for couples.

Hotels in Riverside

Silom and Sathorn

A central base with both the Skytrain and the subway, Lumphini Park and plenty of street food.
