I thought about staying at the Marriott Sukhimvit near Soi 38, but now that the street food has left, I can scratch that off the list. Right now I'm choosing between Conrad, JW and Radisson Suites. The JW is right across the street from Nana, so I'm wondering if that will be too much stimuli for us. I read the Radisson Suites is a little further from the BTS station, but I don't know if it's far enough to matter. The Conrad is more $$. I also have free night certs for the Intercontinental but that seems too far west. I've actually read that much of the action on Sukhimvit is moving east. The Hilton and Radisson Blu are there. What do you guys think?
