Hi all

Will be in BKK early May and will be staying either at Nana Hotel or Town Lodge Hotel. Would like to know where is the best place to change Thai Baht around this area or any other areas.

Thanks!

You will also find if you are taking US Dollars, the higher the denomination the better exchange rate you get. So if taking US Dollars take $50's or $100's

There's also another currency exchange booth between Nana and Soi Cowboy.

Next to McDonalds and Robinson's Department store (Soi 21) and they've always taken my big bills.

In actual fact there are around thirty places to exchange currency between Nana and Soi Cowboy.

Finding legitimate places to exchange currency is probably the second easiest thing to do in Bangkok.
Toffees....Concern yourself with other things like not wearing socks with your sandals and keeping a shirt on in the shopping centres and bars.

Vasu Travel is the best place in this area.

Other side of Sukamvit from Nana, around soi 7, but on Sukamvit it is a travel agents at the front and money exchange at the back. Also has a side door. Open in the day time only. They take your money and it disapears through a little hatch then after a while the Thai Baht comes back, don't worry they aren't robbing you. Plenty of times I have change large amounts there.
