Guest lurkerspeaks Posted August 16, 2016 Posted August 16, 2016 Are there any Starwood Hotels conveniently located to the main gogo bar area of Bangkok? Or are they all in different parts if the city? Quote
DivineMadman Posted August 16, 2016 Posted August 16, 2016 There is a Le Meridien right at Patpong Night Market and very very close to Soi Twilight. I used to stay there a lot. Very nice, friendly. I never had a problem with joiners. Quote
firecat69 Posted August 16, 2016 Posted August 16, 2016 Sheraton Grande Sukhumvit and Westin across from each other. Sheraton has escalator at front door to Skytrain. 10 minutes and then 8 minute walk to Soi Twilight W also a few steps to Skytrain 3 minute ride and 6-8 minute walk Aloft 6 minute walk to Skytrain and then 10 minute ride and then same 8 minute walk. And the above mentioned Meridien which is very close and usually require the most points which I assume you are looking to use . There have been 1 or 2 reports on problems with guests but not sure of their current policy. I would guess a large range of difference in points needed. The Sheraton, Aloft and Westin are at most a $3 taxi ride during off hours . The W probably less then $2 taxi ride I forgot to mention Four Points which is relatively same distance as Westin and Sheraton Grande Looks like aloft is 4000 points per night which is a great deal if you have points. No doubt Meridien is the best location for first time visitor. Make sure you book room for 2 people and be prepared just in case you bring a visitor. I think a lot will depend on how your guest is dressed and how assertive you can be if stopped. I have never had a problem with all the Marriots, W, all Hiltons , all Holiday Inns except the one on Silom and Crowne Plaza very close to action with no guest problems. Quote
