Grande Centre Point Ploenchit
For the price paid it's hard to beat. The room is big and clean with the most comfortable mattress and pillows. I don't think it's 'grand' any longer (maybe 20 years ago) but if you need to be in that location then it's a great value choice. The complimentary minibar and snacks are a nice touch.
