pumper Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 I posted this last week in the internet forum & got no hotels wit frre wifi responses. what Bangkok hotels offer FREE wi-fi? a thread in the Phuket forum has a bunch of listing on Phuket for free wi-fi Phuket thread: Hotels/bars With Wi-fi so many of us are carrying laptops (mine is used mostly to empty my camera!) BUT: If my hotel offered FREE wifi i'd probably use my laptop more. I usually stay at Grand President & they have ethernet but IMHO charge tu mutt .. what coffee shops? http://www.wi-fihotspotlist.com/browse/intl/2000038/p1.html I'll begin the Bangkok hotel free wi-fi list with: http://www.bangkoksuite.com/buffet_breakfast.html & gleaned from the phuket (Hotels/bars With Wi-fi) thread: http://thaibasecamp.com/ http://www.littlebuddhaphuket.com/ http://www.nirvanaphuket.com/spa.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billp Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 Coffee shop (and ground floor) of the Landmark Hotel has free wifi. On the budget side, Om Yim right beside Chong Nonsi BTS station has free wifi throughout, Bangkok City Suite on Petchburi Road offers free wifi.

pumper Posted April 4, 2007 Author Share Posted April 4, 2007 Thanks. Om Yim & Bangkok Suites are cheaper room, meals & wifi than some sukhumvit hotels are for wifi alone! i searched this am for free wifi hotels in Thailand.. came up mosty empty stickman has some 'i think free wifi' listings .. none of which list free wifi on their websites. weird so many hotels on phuket offer wifi & so few in bangers .. or anywhere else in thailand for that matter this being a computer based group of english speakers .. with I assume a large % of retirees / tourists with hotel / serviced apartment internet / wifi needs it seemed this topic would be of interest to all. NOT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaithai Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 Unico Grande Silom (formerly called Tower Inn) has free wifi in their lobby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pumper Posted April 4, 2007 Author Share Posted April 4, 2007 >Unico Grande Silom (formerly called Tower Inn) has free wifi in their lobby.< went to their web site & it was not 'advertised' .. apparently several hotels offer free wifi but do not list on their web site. I did find their web sitre to be refreshingly honest about Bkk traffic From their silom location: Nearby Attractions within 15 minutes by car Maboonkrong Department Store Nearby Attractions within 1 hour by car The Grand Palace lord, do i hate bangkok traffic what's the worst job on the planet? .. Bkk taxi, perhaps below a male sex slave in cambodia! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billp Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 (edited) I wish the Unico Grande Silom had advertised its free lobby wifi TO ITS GUESTS when I stayed there in January. I didn't know about that and ended up searching for a connection in the area. Found a café with free wifi nearby in the area between Silom and Surawong (maybe on Th Decho?), then the pub on Soi Convent mentioned by Stickman, then the Om Yim.

Ulysses G. Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 bourbon st in washington square got free wifi. Other than the free internet, I found the place to be overpriced. The Nana Hotel is not only cheaper, but a better deal all around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MTW Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 I recently stayed at Bangkok City Suites which someone above me mentioned. It was very good for a budget hotel, clean, new, has all the basics except not much TV in English (I was recovering from Lasik surgery and couldn't do much so good TV would have helped me). Wifi for free in your room, plus 30 minutes a day free from the lobby computers. They don't pay commissons and offer good value for the money. (By basics I mean, refrig, bathtub, phone, good furnishings, room service, breakfast included, etc.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
