Intercontinental or JW Marriott

[JS53 7]

Hi Guys

I’ve currently booked a basic room at the JW Marriott for a trip I’ll hopefully be able to make in October. 
 

However, I’ve been looking at prices again today and for the same price as a basic room at the JW I can get a club corner suite at the Intercontinental. 
 

I don’t have any experience of either of these hotels but wondering what you would do with these options?
 

JW seems to have a much better location so I’m probably still leaning towards that. Both have free cancellation btw

On both my trips, I've stayed at the Hotel Icon on the same soi as the Marriott. My go-to pickup place has been Hillary 2 on Soi 4 (Soi Nana), just a block away with an easy short cut through the Rajah Hotel parking lot. No need for taxi trips back to the hotel. So I would go for the Marriott.

My last trip to BKK I stayed at both the JW and Marriott Marquis Queens' Park.  The Marquis was nicer, but the JW was being remodeled, so I would assume it is in really nice shape now,  It is very convenient to Nana, and is a step above the Intercontinental.

Consider the Westin. Intercon is nice but just seems isolated from the fun areas at night.

Also the Athenee is a favourite.

I've stayed at the Westin a bunch of times, perfect location halfway between Nana and Cowboy, easy walk to either.  A bit pricey though.  If anyone cares, the gym there is top notch.
