Luxury Bangkok hotels (Thailand)

The Khao San Road and surrounding area of Banglampu is the hub of the backpacker's hostels in Bangkok. This is the place where you can find rooms for just a few dollars a night – as long as you don't mind being kept awake by the music from the street. But Bangkok hotels range from the budget to the luxury. Most of the high-end hotels are located on the Chao Praya River and in the Silom area. Some of the more famous hotels in Bangkok include the Banyan Tree, which has a rooftop bar overlooking the city, the legendary Oriental with views over the Chao Praya River and the Shangri-La, set in lush tropical gardens.
