It depends on your budget and service preferences. While Sukhumvit has two of the most famous areas targeted at non-rich westerners out of three, there is a completely different market (more Asian-targeted and overall more upscale) along Rachada – around and up from the MRT Huay Kwang station. There are still other less known areas, on Phetchaburi to airport direction (similar to Huay Kwang, but cheaper and lower quality), somewhere around BTS Ari (Thai-targeted gogos) etc. The world is not limited by Nana Plaza LOL.
