You will save close to an hour of travel time in each direction and get to stay in one of the world's great hotels for something like 6700 THB.
Mandarin is directly across the river. Ferries every five minutes or less.
You guys convinced me...shoot pre-pay rate of $167 at Shangri-la...I love my Marriott points, but not THAT much
