Travel in Bangkok, Thailand. If you want a perfect mix of East and West, getting around Bangkok can be among your best options. Bangkok has preserved its culture and heritage so well, with a bustling shopping district. It's also a perfect node to travel across borders to Malaysia, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, and even Burma.

Cheap Apartment Hotel in Bangkok
I plan to house my parents at AIT so they can see my campus life here in Thailand. But I need to book them in a hotel in Bangkok for 1 night (a night before they leave for Cebu) since we are going to Patpong late that night anyway.
I found a very good apartment hotel which is very ideal for my parents to stay. Citadines apartment hotel is a chain of apart'hotels located around Bangkok in Sukhumvit. Studio apartment can accommodate 2 persons, with 1 queen size bed and a sofa chair, free internet connection, hot & cold shower, cooking facilities (stove, microwave, refrigerator, kitchen sink, complete with china wear and cuttlery) and TV/DVD set. They also have Deluxe studio which is quite bigger but I choose the Studio for my parents.
It is probably the best priced apartment hotel in Bangkok area as it ranges from Baht1,100++ to Baht1,900++ per night only. Their chains of hotels are located nearby BTS stations (walkinh distance) which adds to its convenience. I chose one at Sukhumvit 23 which is near Asok station. It is a little pricey compared to that one which is near Nane station at Sukhumvit 11 (which costs Baht1,100++) but the one at Sukhumvit 23 (Baht1,900++) is nearby many massage parlors and food establishments, which can be more convenient.
Both locations are near Patpong and will cost about Baht215.00 for a taxi ride from the hotel to Suvarnabhumi Bangkok Airport.
I think my parents will have a great stay in this hotel...and I'm getting 2 rooms for them (my parents and my sister and her hubby). I can't wait to see them!
