If your stay in Bangkok implies spending a large part of the day visiting the city, it seems a good idea to select a hotel that facilitates the transfers.
Keep in mind that between 12h00 and 16h00 the heat and humidity cause extra exhaustion.
Our tip is to avoid outdoor activities during this period and go back to the hotel to rest.
If possible, book a hotel with a pool.
A portion of the scheduled visits is likely to be in the Rattanakosin Historic District. If so, the most favourable areas are Khaosan Road, Silom and Chinatown.
Another possibility is that the hotel is an important part of the trip and you are going to spend more time enjoying it. If this is the case, we offer you a selection of hotels highly valued by families.

Some more tips:
» If your stay is going to be 2 or 3 days, you have to take into account how you are going to get around the city.
If you are going to move by taxi, tuk-tuk or with a private vehicle, the only recommendation is that the hotel is not far from the tourist areas shown on the map.
In the case of using the collective public transport, moreover, it should be located as close as possible to the MRT subway network or the BTS Skytrain.
» For a one-day visit, bear in mind the departure airport and plan carefully the sites to visit.
Depending on your schedule, the hotel will have to be located either close to the area where you will spend your leisure time (if you arrive in Bangkok at night) or close to the departure airport (if you leave the city early in the morning).
» My personal experience travelling throughout Thailand is that in general 3-star hotels must have a minimum score of 7.5 on booking.com. If you are interested in any accommodation but it does not reach this score, it is worth checking the reviews to know the reason. The 4-star hotels must exceed at least 8.0 score.
Where to lodge in Chiang Mai?
The shaded area is the one we suggest if your intention is to move around the city centre on foot.
If you are going to move with your own vehicle or using public transport, then it does not matter if you are a little further away.

The best accommodation area in Chiang Rai
The city centre is quite small. If the idea is to walk without renting any vehicle, then it is better to reserve the accommodation within the shaded area.
Keep in mind that the Blue and the White temples or the Black houses are located on the outskirts of Chiang Rai, so you cannot go walking.
