Displayed prices are for multiple nights. Check the site for price per night. I see hostels starting at 200b/day and hotels from 500b/day on agoda.

Thought i would post this here , during my recent trip i found two places that gave me the best rates for canadian $ anyways.

 

the first is in the night bazaar the green building on 2nd rd just past central festival think it's called best exchange

 

the second is on walking st you have to go inside it has a glass wall and door and they also arrange travel it's on the sea side fairly close to the silver star 3 i think.

 

I found they gave me 0.100 better then anyone else. for example most places giving me 29.102 they would be around 29.202 or better

 

hope it helps

roo m8 thanks for the heads up on another place to investigate ,

in the last 2 years , ive taken exchange rate to heart - many places can loose you as much as 10% on exchange rates,

 

Over my last 9 visits in 24 months, some for a month at a time i've almost taken it as a hobby to look at exchange rates in passing - infact my teelaks de jour have run across roads to look for me, knowing its a hobby of mine and show willing

as baht is very close to thier heart - in fact i have had skype and text where they have even given a heads up on places after i've been home,

 

The problem with exhange booths is - I did a sense of loyalty when they have being do well every visit but not anymore

I have no such loyalty after a conversation with a thia exhange booth owner, my last visit, a new small booth in soi dianna, and beat my constant win for best booth on soi buakowe oppersite LK metro, 3 yellow TTT booths , 2 on beach road and 1 on 2nd road where worthy second place.

my new ruke is never be loyal, never think managment dont change - never think its all realitvely the same - go to the exhange booth in mikes mall as an example of the 10% loss

 

wish we could keep a thread with constant updates as i think that post will help alot
