1. Best place is Super Rich for Bangkok. Make sure you have large denominations like $50's and 100;s for best rate. Here is the website http://www.superrich1965.com/Eng/location.aspx
2. If you aren't currently in Thailand, I'd suggest you leave the money in your bank account, and withdraw using ATM machines; however, you do need to check what charges your bank has. Secondly, I notice in BKK and Pattaya where I am, that the exchange rate seems to be lower in areas around where there are many tourists; i.e. Silom area, Paragon shopping center, etc. If you get a low rate, just exchange the minimum to get by, and keep an eye out, they do vary! NEVER exchange in any hotel! Before moving here I made so many trips, and decided using the ATM machines was really the easiest and best way to go. NOTE: Be SURE to tell your bank that you are traveling to SE Asia; also notify your credit card companies if you plan to use the credit card.
3. super rich You need your passport and higher denomination notes get better rates. The only one I know is Opposite central world and next (1 minute) to the BIG C supermarket. If you are facing Big C its on a soi on your left- red and yellow signage if i remember rightly. Don't use your atm card as someone suggested, the rates are generally poor and transaction charges high
4. the best exchange rate are sukhumvit soi 3/1 and prathunam market there are many indivudials autorized exchanger with very high rate
