P. S. Wonder what 5* hotels you get for 80 bucks in Bangkok. You may get this price on ROS occasionally (but ROS is not proper 5* IMO) or possibly on LM with BRG. Other than that, even Holiday Inns usually cost more.
Yes ROS, I have had Westin for 100 a couple of times. I just troll rates until I find a BRG.
