But even in low season and in less touristy places you won't get much of a room for 200 Baht - and in any case not a place where you would want stay with your wife and baby. -- Alfred Molon http://www.molon.de - Photos of Asia, Africa and Europe |

Simple motels and hotels (with aircon, showers and an icebox) charge around 300-400 bahts for a room a night outside Bangkok and popular beach destinations (which typically reside on islands). These may be a bit primitive for western families who can afford much more. In provincial towns room rates begin from 1000-2000 bahts at the best hotels. In these establishents the most expensive suites can cost ten or twenty times more than the cheapest rooms). |

There is a shuttle bus for free, but it takes half an hour to do the (short) trip. There is also an enclosed elevated walkway (air conditioned) which takes between 5 and 15 minutes depending on your walking speed. miguel -- Photos from 40 countries on 5 continents: http://travel.u.nu Latest photos: Australia; Malaysia; Burma; Thailand; Hong Kong Airports of the world: http://airport.u.nu |
