A couple of months ago, I had booked a 3-day weekend trip to Bangkok. Working in Singapore for 2.5 weeks threw a slight kink in my plans -- couldn't take Friday off -- but still decided to go even if for just two days. Stayed at the Bangkok Marriott Resort & Spa -- used points so the room was free. Great place with a fantastic club lounge and a wonderful spa. A little of the beaten path -- but can get to the main attractions via a shuttle boat across the river and then the MRT (light rail system). I hired a private tour guide for 1/2-day on Saturday and Sunday each -- so didn't actually have to worry about public transport. It's very hot & humid in Bangkok -- so was glad to be able to get into an air-conditioned car between sights.
