Bangkok Trip Repost 1 (updated) - Itienerary (Hotel, Foods, Shopping)

Firstly, Hotels. Which to go?
I'll recommend
The Residence Rajtaevee Hotel (Opposite First Hotel)
588/1 Petchburi Road, Rajtaevee, Pathumwan, 10400 Bangkok  
Many Taxi drivers doesn't know about this hotel. Just tell them First Hotel will do. 
You can't really see the hotel from outside but you'll spot a 7-11 store and a lightbox with "SunBuri", the hotel is located 1 min walk into that lane.

Travel from Airport: 300baht for taxi

The staffs in the hotel is super friendly!!! If you're unsure of the direction some places just ask them. They're more than willing to help!
Another pros of this hotel is that it is located in between Siam Centre & Platinum.
Both are in walking distance (: about 20-30 min walk? treat it as an exercise for all the good foods u have ate. And there are more snacks at the pathway that you can enjoy while walking.

(* try out the grill stick pork when you are otw to platinum!! it's super delicious!!)

Second, 

Centara Watergate Pavillion Hotel*****
567 Ratchaprarop Road, Makkasan, Pratunam, Bangkok, Thailand 10400

It's still a new hotel so many taxi uncle doesn't know as well.
Best to have the hotel's contact number and exact address before you get to bangkok.
I'll give 5/5 stars for their service!
Extremely helpful, carries your luggage from the point you enters the building to you room.
Language communication: THUMBSUP! Excellent staffs with very well spoken English.
Indoor facilities: Spa, Restaurant, Outdoor Sunbeds. Great ambience for you and your friends to chill.
For girls that are travelling with other girlfriends, this is a place I'll strongly recommend.
They have Securities around the lane that leads to the hotel. Makes me feels so much safer even when I'm getting a quick bite alone near by.  

5 Mins walk from famous shopping mall- Platinum mall
7 Eleven, KFC, Cafes, Thai Massage Just right under the hotel!!
and not to miss out! There's a awesome chicken rice nearby. But I forgot to take any pictures or names.
Too hungry from all the shopping T.T

Definitely visiting this hotel the next time I goes Bangkok.

This hotel is for those who are dropping by for a flight change or wanna stay closer to the airport its hotel is definitely worth trying :D
Airport transfer available at 100batt. SUPER CHEAP! it's cheaper than traveling by public transport!or if you bought a package with your hotel stay it's even cheaper! they are super punctual & attentive. willing to give the best service (*thumbs up*)
It's slight inconvenient as it's located deep in a lane and the best way to get there is to cab. and there's a shopping mall nearby abt 10 mins walk. 7-11 is a distant away, so is better that you get your stuffs prepared from the airport's 7-11.
