Several boardies spent the recent election weekend in Bangkok. Several of us stayed at Aloft on Sukhumvit Soi 11. Aloft is a spin-off of Starwood's W Hotel line. Think of it as a budget version of The W. The vibe is fun and young...and cheap. I paid a rate of 2,000 baht per night (not including taxes) for an Urban room, but there are lower rates available.
The location is convenient for Nana, Cowboy, Beer Garden, and more. The hotel is across the street from Bed Supper Club, where I use to go with a civilian ex. Bed and the rooftop bar at the Fenix are great places to watch civilian eye ca
