Just tell the doorman you need a taxi and one will swing on off Sukhumvit within 2 minutes.
I have never had any hassles with taxis from there. Last time the cabbie asked if meter or a fixed price and he quoted a figure (including all tolls).
I cannot remember the gross price but I do remember his total quote was only 20 baht over what I had paid coming in from airport so I said OK.

I am curious. Which hotel and area do you like to stay in?

Has anyone stayed at this place? Its on Soi 11, between the under renovation steak house & Grand Swiss.

I figure around 50 to 100 CAD a night should cover a decent hotel. I've stayed in rat nests before on the Reeperbahn, but looking for something a little nicer and close to transit. Nothing fancy, but simple, clean, and good A/C.
Thanks everyone for all your help I will be investigating all the hotels you have mentioned.

Posts: 414Salil Hotel soi-11
Planning to book Salil hotel on soi-11 for my coming trip as I am getting a good offer on their superior room for around 45 USD / Night inclusive of breakfast. Has anyone stayed there? How is the ambience and the room quality, wifi etc. I know for certain the hotel is girl friendly and there is no joiner fee, also it doesn't have a pool but how is the hotel experience otherwise?

You have already received several helpful replies but you should indicate in your question what is your price range.
Landmark is my choice and suggestion but it's 5-star and you pay for it. I wouldn't be caught dead in some of the places other guys recommend and like, so you have to assist guys wanting to to help you by being more explicit.
A quick check on any of the sites like Agoda, Bookings or Hotels.com will show you a map with 100's of hotels and you can narrow them down by price.
Edit. I just saw Sunlover's post which must have gone up just before mine. Sorry to repeat what he said albeit in a slightly different way.

For a cross section try: Landmark, Nana Hotel, Majestic Suites, Majestic Grande, JW Marriott.

The girl just has to leave her ID card for your security and she takes it back from the reception on the way out. Girls don't mind that, because it's costless and it is also for their security.
For anonymity, you can pay cash. They don't even require a passport, a foreign ID card is sufficient. And if you want complete anonymity, how hard is it to get one of those? The front desk don't care where it comes from.
Oh, and one more thing, unlike Grand Centre Point (which is, admittedly, more beautiful), they don't charge twice as much when you walk-in to pay cash as when you book on the internet with a credit card: at Ruamchitt it's the same price. You're not here to feel screwed, you're here to do the screwing.

What are people's preferred guest friendly hotels within walking distance (5 to 10 minutes) of Nana BTS Station?
Thanks.
