If you walk down soi 8 away from Suk, there's a small soi on the right with lolitas bj bar, then there's a beer bar on the left, then a big serviced apartment block on the right then the Promenade on the right just after it (if my memory serves me)

Fastphil is correct with his location....another hotel Stable Lodge is almost directly opposite the Promenade....it is only a short walk to Sukhumvit and the Skytrain escalator to Nana Station is two steps down Suk after you turn left from Soi 8.
I posted about the Promenade on another forum as the wife and I stayed there regularly a bit over a year ago - it was 1000 baht a night cash then and you could always get a room - clean and tidy, guest friendly and never likely to see the 3.5 stars of its heyday again. In the words of others - a bit of a dump - but a well-located dump. The bar restaurant directly across the road had a great breakfast deal and was a good place for a first and last drink when on the town. Enjoy.
