Family Friendly Hotels in Bangkok

Bangkok, with its superb amenities and ancient culture, is not free from prostitution and a particular kind of night life that we would wish to avoid when with children. More often than not, the more budget-friendly hotels turn out to be in red light areas and tourists are in for a nasty surprise. Check out some budget-friendly hotels in Bangkok that are in safe areas and near the popular attractions which make them even more convenient when with kids as the minimize the travel time. As a general rule, try to get a hotel near the areas of Siam Square, Silom, Sukhumvit to stay close to shopping areas or Chinatown, Rattanakosin to stay within easy reach of the temples and the museums.

Amari Hotels

Amari is a chain of hotels in Thailand and they have quite a few in Bangkok itself. Amari Atrium although lovely is far from tourist spots but Amari Boulevard is situated fairly well. At any time, do check their promotions as they usually offer 3rd night free on 2 nights which makes the decision easier.

Holiday Inn

Located close to Central World Mall, the Holiday Inn at Silom is a wonderful choice for any family. They have a children's pool and can also provide day care and babysitting services and you can rent a playstation on request.

46 Thewet soi 1, Phranakorn, Bangkhunprom, Krungkaseam, Bangkok, Thailand Tel: 0 26288188-90, 08 1308 1515

This hotel is in an offbeat area but is the prettiest boutique hotel one can imagine. A healthy Oriental vegetarian breakfast starts your day and the calm and peaceful surroundings give you a great start.

Pathumwan Princess

If you wished for location, you couldn't get any better. Located right next to MBK mall which is where all your bargain shopping is going to take place and opposite the Siam Discovery and Siam Paragon Malls (which has a wonderful Ocean World the kids will easily spend half a day in), you wouldn't want to walk out of the hotel for long.

Pullman Bangkok King Power

Another hotel closeby, near the Siam square which means proximity to the above mentioned malls, is the Pullman by King Power Duty Free and which means that they have a King Power Duty Free Mall within!
