I printed a map from Google maps all the way from Bangkok to Buriram (about 40 pages). Very detailed and accurate and I never got lost once even through Bangkok.

RIGHT LOURENS!!! 

Google Maps is a wonderful tool to get direction. just insert Location+destination and it gives you a VERY detailed direction !!

The hotel link provided has the two hotels I was thinking about:

The Thep Nakorn Hotel is very nice and I have heard nothing but good things about it.

My second choice is the Vongthong Hotel. Construction of the Vongthong probably started before the Thep Nakorn, but it was not completed until recently due to money/investment problems. I know the Lobby is nice, but I have not heard anything about the rooms.

 Would you please leave a review with us after your stay at whichever hotel you choose?
