canerandagio Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 All, My first post in many years, and it may be the first of a long series, as I have turned 50 and retirement visa may appear soon in my passport. So, allow me to introduce myself. My nick means stray dog, I am a stray who has travelled to Thailand since 1982, in all disguises, backpacker, 5 star tourist, business, study, work, honeymoon, you name it. My problem statement...: my job is flexible enough to let me work from Bangkok for a few weeks every quarter. Basically I work from my room, using the internet for video conferencing with senior managers. Internet needs to be high-speed and reliable. I have done this a few times, and found that the President Palace Hotel in Sukhumvit Soi 11 was just perfect... Good internet connection, large rooms for only 2000/day, centrally located with food and shops 24/7, near BTS, anonymous enough to do what I please, Starbucks in the lobby... but now it's all gone... on 10th December this little wonder of a hotel will shut down and will reopen renovated in 2017 probably... So... where can I go for my upcoming visit in January? Options: 1 - Nana Hotel, anonymous certainly, great location, cheap, but wifi is a problem there and if I don't want to risk being caught unable to work without internet, not even once... 2 - Condo nearby: I tried airbnb, but still haven't found what I want... and I am not getting the same feeling as a hotel (maybe it's because they are cheaper?) 3 - Hotel nearby: I had a look at few, but they seem to be significantly more expensive (I pay 2000-2500 max per day) and not as large rooms as I am used to, or not located where the action is. Can anyone help suggesting a good hotel, with a good internet connection in lower sukhumvit for my budget? Or is there anyone who has a studio to rent out for 3-4 weeks?

The Big Mango Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Dynasty Grande seems to fit your bill , nit to be confused with its older counterpart Dynasty Inn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
