If you have to stay out at Don Muang International Airport, or have business at IMPACT Arena and Convention Centre, this is a convenient hotel for both. Westerners might appreciate a room five minutes away from Terminal 1 by air-conditioned walkway and never having to venture outside. Rooms on the exclusive women’s floor, accessed by a private elevator, have a feminine touch in their decor and upgraded bathroom amenities. The look is modern and spacious. There are conference and banquet facilities for up to 1,000 guests and the business centre is open 24 hours.

This large hotel is famed locally for its space-age appearance and beautiful atrium lobby. Even though it’s close to the city centre and a short walk from the new underground, it might be a bit out of the way for some. To others, that’s the beauty of the place. Free shuttles are provided to Siam Square. The rooms are large, comfortable and elegantly understated, and some have terrific views of the city. Service is friendly and efficient. There’s broadband internet in every room and in the well-equipped business centre. Wi-fi is available only on the executive floor.

This spacious, cheerful business hotel doesn’t take its [name] from an American political scandal, rather from the busy central district in which it’s located— Prathu means gate in Thai, nam means water. It is surrounded by a busy shopping area and is a short walk from the huge Central World Plaza shopping centre. The interior is a classic blend of East and West, with large, understated rooms. The top three floors are reserved for executive rooms and have their own reception and lounge, butler service and complimentary breakfast buffet. The staffed business centre is open 24 hours.

This hotel is a little off the beaten track, sitting just across the river from downtown Bangkok and its hazy silhouette, but it feels more isolated than it actually is. With its rustic touches and hardwood everywhere, it’s a favourite with business travellers who want to feel like they are getting away from it all when the meetings end. And they can get still farther away by taking an exotic night cruise aboard the Manohra Song, the hotel’s restored rice barge, to the ancient Thai capital of Ayutthaya. If you love luxurious, sprawling resorts but hate cities, this could be your place.

This is a no-tourist zone. The liberal use of wood and muted colours will tell you from the moment you enter the lobby that you’re among businesspeople. The luxurious apartments are more executive home than Holiday Inn and your neighbours are more likely hoping to make a good business deal than get the perfect tan. The comfortable rooms are well-equipped, with microwave ovens. If you feel more comfortable in a place like this, come even if you intend to stay only one night. Centre Point has five other locations in the city, all fairly similar, with apartments up to four bedrooms.
