I have booked 10 nigths at President Solitaire Hotel & Spa Bangkok in Sukhumvit Soi 11, but was thinking I did a terrible mistake since it is far from the Nana action.
Should I cancel the reservation and book Nana Hotel?

[QUOTE=Soap Fan]The Admiral Suites Location Map shows Admiral Suites as just past Grand Mecure Park Avenue. Is this in fact quite wrong? Shows as about 550m on Google Maps. Wouldn't be first time a Hotel doesn't know their own location, or lies about it. [/QUOTE]
I gotta walk it, Citideines 11 you can see Sukhumvit, That to me (as I just played pool at Hillaries across the street 10 minutes ago) seems to be much closer to Shukhumvit then Admiral. Citidines on Soi 11 is more like Imperial Queens park IMHO....

Why not jut ask to rent one of the short time rooms upstairs in NEP for a few weeks? I mean why see anything in Bangkok outside of NEP?

It's not that far. Plus you are better off being a little bit away from Soi 4, trust me.

I agree - it's not that far and Soi 11 is a rather nice street with some good restaurants. About a 10 minute walk to NEP from where you are.

It is right near it, do not worry, it is close to cowboy and nana and beer garden and new wave. Has German House, Australian house restaurants near this hotel, has Hillary's across the street for pool and drinks, is on a nice(r) soi in the nana area etc...
You can take cut through park hotel parking lot to reach beer garden, they even have a tuk tuk if you do not want to walk down the soi to the Sukhumvit (Nana BTS) etc... What are you going to get in a Nana Hotel except a gift that gives giving :D ?
You want to sex one girl then call out for another to come in then repeat like that then go to pattaya....

Citadines 11 maybe be slightly closer to Sukhumvit that Admiral Suites but it looks close to the same on the Map:

Anyway I have enough energy for a short walk when not in a hurry.
My friends and I are planning a trip to Bangkok in early December. I have search through the internet for some new hotels situated at Sukhumvit and the name "Ibis Nana Bangkok" popped out. The price looks reasonable and the location is great. I just wanted to check whether anyone has tried the hotel and what would your rating be for the hotel in terms of GF, cleanliness, security and general services before I proceed to book.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers

A budget Hotel but newish. Expect the mattress to be very firm (a cheap one). No pool.
I haven't stayed there but used to stay at Grand Business Inn so I know a lot about hard mattresses :(

It's good for the price you pay. It's clean, secure and relatively new, which is more than you can say about a lot of hotels in that price range. But there is some downside. The biggest turn off for me is the tiny (and I do mean tiny) size of the rooms. They are among the smallest hotel rooms I've seen in a facility run by a major hotel chain. Walls are thin - you can hear every sound from the rooms on either side. The furnishings aren't hospitality grade. They looks OK now because the hotel hasn't been in business for very long, but they will get very scruffy fast. Also, it's quite a hike down the soi. The hotel's tuk tuk will take you to Nana station, but you're on your own getting back.

If I told you the truth you probably wouldn't believe it.
The result was not really what was intended.

I am coming to BKK at the end of September to get away from China National Day week long holiday horrors.
I am looking for an inexpensive and clean place close by but not too close to the Sukhumvit attractions.
I've stayed at Livingstones (which was very nice and friendly) and also at some much less expensive places such as Federal and Woriburi in the past. I want to try something new.
Has anyone tried the Darjelling on Soi 18? It has good reviews and is only 1400B/night including breakfast and Wifi. It is supposed to be very quiet inside and very close (<300m from ASOK MTS station)
Most importantly, is it girl friendly??? It is very gf and close to Soi Cowboy according to a single report on this forum. I spelled the name wrong in my search....

I don't know anything about Darjelling, but a friend highly recommended budget Baan Hotel Sukhumvit on Soi 18 and on Soi 20 (very close to Sukhumvit Road).

Here is a super deal at Latestays including taxes and breakfast ande free wifi (no pool I guess):

I might also try Darjelling as location is very close to Asoke BTS and reviews look O.K.
