I would have to assume no one would fly to Bangkok just because of these hotel rates. I would suspect people taking advantage of these rates already had plans to be in Bangkok, like myself.
With that said, I am not changing my Hyatt reservations until I know for sure the Conrad will honor the rate, even if it is just a regular room.
Finally, I believe priceline does not allow refunds. However, the Amex rate/reservations do not require advance payment. So if you think you will be going to Bangkok, you might want to think about booking on the amex travel website instead of priceline.
