Not sure about money changer near your hotel. But here is plenty or money changer in bangkok. The 2 wih good rates are Superrich (head office branch) and Vasu exchange.

If you can bring S$1000 notes, you get better rates compare to smaller notes.

In bangkok, you can always request for different denomination of THB. What I do usually is after I get my THB currency. I will take 4 THB1,000 note and tell hem to give me 15 X THB100 & 5 X THB500.

If u are talking abt the hotel in Rajdamri, super rich is directly behind your hotel when u step out of the hotel door. The green and orange super rich directly opp each other. U can't miss them.

The nearest MC to your hotel is Siam Exchange.

Click the map for location.

Small notes always come in handy. Especially when tipping.

That's why Naemlo suggest you to go to Superrich to change.l

If you want also can ask the money changer to give you some THB50 and THB20

Maybe change S$100 in Singapore, THB2300+ should be enough for taxi and some balance in case of emergency. The rest you can change in BKK

See above in red are my opinion.
