The best hotels in Bangkok are not always easy to find, as there are so many options and so much confusing information online. But with a little research, you can find the best place to stay without breaking the bank. Here’s how to find the best hotels in Bangkok, Thailand!
Mandarin Oriental Bangkok
If you’re looking for a hotel that represents luxury and grace, look no further than the Mandarin Oriental Hotel. Sitting in a prime location, guests can easily access all of Bangkok’s main attractions. Located just 5 miles from Suvarnabhumi International Airport, Mandarin Oriental Hotel is one of those places where you really get value for your money. With only 264 rooms, each room is spacious and beautifully decorated. While some have balconies, there are also several rooms with windows right overlooking the Chao Phraya River.
Four Seasons Bangkok
For many, there’s no place like home. For others, home is where their hotel room is. If you’re traveling abroad and want to ensure that your stay is comfortable and memorable, check out Four Seasons Bangkok. This luxury hotel offers a range of suites—from Signature rooms that give travelers a five-star experience at moderate prices, to spacious apartments for those looking for some extra space during their trip. The signature restaurants are fantastic as well, with plenty of healthy options on offer.
W Bangkok
The W is unlike any other hotel in Bangkok, and it’s certainly unlike any other hotel chain. A brainchild of Sir David Tang—Hong Kong’s resident celebrity knight, who made his fortune selling watches at Saks Fifth Avenue—the first W opened its doors in 2001, with a second property soon following. Today there are seven locations across three continents; if you visit just one of them, make sure it’s The W brand’s swankiest outpost: One Hyde Park (London). For its high-rise glamour and ridiculous address (which happens to be home to billionaires), One Hyde Park deserves a special shout-out.
The Siam
Hotel Indigo Siam is a beautifully designed hotel and restaurant located just a few minutes walk from Lumpini Park. The location is great for those wanting to explore nearby Khao San Road, or for those who want easy access to any of Bangkok’s main BTS SkyTrain stations. The rooms are modern and spacious, each offering free Wi-Fi, tea and coffee facilities, and bright artwork. Guests can even watch movies on their 32-inch TVs. And there’s a swimming pool on site too!
Waldorf Astoria Bangkok
Located on Sukhumvit Soi 11, between Asoke and Sukhumvit Roads. Only 10 minutes from Skytrain Chong Nonsi Station and 20 minutes from BTS Asok Station. It is also a 10-minute drive from Phrom Phong Train station and 15 minutes drive from Don Muang Airport. A great location with easy access to anywhere you need to go. The staff is wonderful here, so friendly, and always ready to help you out at any time of day or night. There are over 900 rooms here with prices starting around $100 per night for a basic room and up to about $200 for a superior room. They have suites and even penthouses available as well if your pockets can stretch that far!
Shangri- La Bangkok
The Shangri-La Hotel, Bangkok is a beautiful five-star hotel located in one of Asia’s most beautiful cities. The hotel is situated next to fashionable Sukhumvit Road and Chidlom BTS station which gives tourists convenient access to all of Asia’s major tourist destinations. The hotel itself has four separate buildings that are connected by an underground walkway that leads guests from their rooms and back again without having to leave the building. This four-story complex also connects with several large shopping centers including Siam Paragon, Emporium, and Central Chidlom. While you may want to get out and explore, returning back home is always easy with public transportation within easy walking distance of each building.
The Peninsula Bangkok
The Peninsula Hotel is also a top hotel among tourists. With an onsite spa, three restaurants, and two bars, guests are treated to a variety of amenities. Rooms come equipped with a minibar, flat-screen television, and air conditioning for added comfort and convenience. Each guestroom offers views of either bustling downtown Bangkok or green gardens. The hotel is located within walking distance of notable tourist attractions such as Wat Phra Kaew Temple, Chinatown, and Khao San Road.
Siam Kempinski
This luxurious boutique hotel is ideally located in downtown Bangkok, just a 5-minute walk from BTS and MRT. Featuring classic Thai design and décor, Siam Kempinski also houses one of Bangkok’s largest spas. With an attentive staff and state-of-the-art amenities, it is an ideal choice for travelers looking for an upscale yet affordable experience. Plus, with reasonable rates on high-quality services like massages and manicures/pedicures, Siam Kempinski allows you to enjoy your stay without breaking the bank. After a long day of sightseeing or meetings downtown, unwind with an evening glass of wine at one of two rooftop bars.
Capella Bangkok
One of Bangkok’s newest hotels, Capella is located on Soi 55, one of the city’s most exclusive destinations. It’s also conveniently located near many popular tourist areas like Wat Pho, Lumpini Park, and Siam Paragon. You can find a wide range of restaurants and shops within walking distance or by hopping on a nearby SkyTrain or subway line. Capella offers several room styles with modern amenities and views of either Chao Phraya River or Lumpini Park. Common amenities include an outdoor pool deck, a fitness center, several dining options, spa services, and more. For those looking for luxury hotels in Bangkok without breaking your budget (or without staying downtown), Capella might be just what you’re looking for.
The St. Regis Bangkok
St. Regis may be one of Thailand’s most famous hotels, but that doesn’t mean it is the best for every traveler. It sits far from some of BC’s top attractions, including Khao San Road and Chatuchak Weekend Market, so many visitors opt for more centrally located accommodation. St. Regis does, however, have its perks: there’s a good gym on-site and spa treatments are available for guests looking to relax and rejuvenate before their next adventure. This also makes it an ideal choice if you plan to get married at one of BKK’s nearby temples during your trip—just hop across the street when you feel like you need a breather!
