Yeah. Walking to pratunam area hotel around 5 minutes or less, depends on which hotel you staying at. Then from there can walk around 5minutes to platinum mall. You can go centralworld and Big C if you want, or pantip plaza, which sells IT stuff, but not very cheap, coz been there once.

Walking is ur best mode of transport. Dont take taxi. That timing the vehicles driving speed r like snails
