What is it like to go to Bangkok?

Street food stalls in Chinatown offer many dishes for less than the equivalent of £ 1 in the local Thai Baht currency.

While in Chinatown, he also enjoy one night in the nearby Soi Nana district, where many traditional stores have become fashionable bars.

But one thing worth spending a little more on Bangkok is a cocktail in the Sky Bar of the Lebua hotel, which many will recognize as a place of filming of the comedy film of Friends of 2011 The Hangover 2.

A cocktail, which includes Hangertini, a whiskey gift made with rosemary, honey and apple, will cost him more or less.

But you can ask for only one and stay for the horizon views that are the best of Bangkok.

I also scored a couple of nights at the Hotel Shangri-la Bangkok as part of a vacation package in British Airways.

The rooms cost around £ 450 less per night than at the Hotel Sister in London, but they are equally opulent.
