If you are travelling to Bangkok there is only one place to stay, the Pathumwan Princess. This hotel is connected to MBK, the biggest shopping complex in Bangkok. MBK is amazing. There are about 6 levels and shops and bargains galore. There are several shops that only sell fixed price items, which many find as a nice break from bartering and there is also markets within the shopping centre where you can perfect your bartering skills.
There are doors from the hotel into MBK which really does make it extremely convenient. The rooms in the hotel are extremely spacious, but the best part is the views. The hotel sits on top of MBK so even the rooms on level 2 have spectacular views. When I visited in 2008 I stayed in the superior (cheapest) room but was still on level 16.
The pool at the hotel is a lap swimming pool but still absolutely fine for a relaxing swim after a day of shopping in the heat.
The buffet breakfast in the hotel is amazing. They serve everything from pancakes, to noodles to eggs.
This hotel is definitely the best in Bangkok.
