My suggestion is always to stay by the river. That means, between the two you mentioned, the ShangriLa would be best. Being on the river gives an entirely differnt feel to a hotel, and makes it convenient to take the water taxi.

I agree with Elainee-The Shangri-La is a very good choice. Request a room overlooking the river on the Executive level-they have some overlooking the city! Free drinks & nibblies all day & wonderful wine & canapes at night. We paid US30 per night for the upgrade - great value.

both are great hotels...i prefer the river locations so the sh-la is my pick...we stayed there twice earlier this month and it was quite nice...
the banyon tree's location is not my favorite (in the middle of the hi-rise business district) so i prefer to go there only to eat on occasion...
