What a coincidence, we also just got back from BKK last SUN and also stayed in Best Western Mayfair  Due to low season, they've upgraded our standard room (THB1000/night) to deluxe room! Best of all, free wifi and internet access in the lobby. I've stayed in Grand Watergate which is a stone throw away from here, and I've gotta say, BWM's breakfast is much much better. The only problem...it's deeper into the dark alleys  CentralWorld and BigC closed due to the protests before  Gotta walk all the way to Siam Paragon and Discovery for the mall foods. Everything seems normal and fine, not as pack as before but it's still quite a handful tourists... Check out http://eatlah.blogspot.com/2010/06/braised...an-noodles.html for the yummy wantan noodles at Soi 19 nearby Platinum. Will be updating few more Thai food posts this coming weeks

QUOTE(aeiou228 @ Jun 23 2010, 11:39 PM) When coming back to hotel, you need a Thai sim card to call the hotel to pick you up at either soi 11, soi 13, soi15 or pratunam. I called BWM to pick me three times at different intersections and the tuk tuk swiftly arrived in 5 min. hey i didn't know we can do that! lol! gee! argh...will do that next time hehe. i'm not sure about u, but i didn't find that tuk-tuk driver guy very friendly...most of the time he's like in a hurry and doesn't really smile...but the rest of the staffs are excellent though
