Hotels, bungalos, apartments and other fun places to stay in Thailand.
Thailand is one of the worlds premiere destinations and offers a variety of options in hotels, lodges, bungalows, hostels, condominuims and apartments. The choice largely depends on where you will be traveling to and how long your intended stay is. The short term visitor is limited and will likely be staying in a Hotel or Bungalow. For someone wishing to stay for weeks or even months, the lodging expense can be much cheaper as you can easily find a Condominium or Apartment to fit your needs. Thailand offers the best of the best, you can stay in five star luxury accomodations, or in a shared hostel, the choice is yours.
Location is the primary factor. Naturally, poplular tourist areas like downtown Bangkok, Phuket, and Koh Samui will be in more demand, and thus more expensive. A small amount of flexibility can open up a large amount of viable lodging options. For example, finding a good hotel that is near the skytrain or subway, but not in most expensive area will save you a large amount of money while still close to the major tourist areas and attractions. To find the best Thailand hotels visit Luxury Hotels Bangkok and browse through a variety of styles of locations. If your stay in Bangkok is short, such as a short layover the I recommend Airport hotels Bangkok as the best resource for finding accommodation near Suvarnabhumi International airport in Bangkok Thailand.

Small venues packed with dramaOne reason the Bangkok audience has recently seen a rise in the number of theatre performances are the three new venues - Muangthai Rachadalai Theatre, Makhampom Studio and Crescent Moon Space - which have been operational for a little over a year now.
With the media hype created by an enormous marketing budget, the public knows what has been happening on the Rachadalai stage, and people can easily count off the number of productions.
