Question "Very Specific" Hotel Q

This is my first post here - although I was hoping the first to be a field report.
I'm leaving for bkk for a few days (1st time!) tomm and even after all the searches on the forum can't decide on a place to stay

Am lookin to stay at a GF friendly place close to Sukhumvit, budget USD 80 - USD 100, need Wifi access and if possible a jacuzzi. Helps if place is close to some excellent food joints... (any suggestions on some really nice spicy seafood restaurants?)

Can someone help?

Lookin fwd to be in LOS!

go to priceline.com
i have used it countless times for BKK
you have two options:
1) Amari Blvd is quoted at 105/nt. nice hotel, along the lines of Westin and Marriott. its GF. pool is a little small, but nice rooms
2)i would use the "name your own price" and bid around 70us. i usually got the Westin or JW marriott

if your bid is not accepted, you can always book Amari Blvd, but would try for Westin or JW beforehand

also some serviced apartments will be within budget - usually much bigger rooms 70-100sqm , always GF.
Stayed in Suwan Park View recently and would recommend - good rooms - 2 tv's, pool , gym everything else I can think of - was a little under 3.5K baht/night

Amari Boulevard is actually quoted at $96 if you book through LATESTAYS: Last minute Hotel Bookings in Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore & Bali

But try to contact them directly (not through a referring service) as that often results in a better price
