I'd argue that group shuttles, as has been done in the past, is probably
a better option than trying to have 1000 people even share taxi rides.

There are 7 pages of "official hotels".  Some might have shuttles many
won't.  In addition traffic is such that a shuttle might take a very
long time, since bus drivers tend in my experience to follow set routes
rather than routing around congestion (of which there is a lot ;-).  In
any case, I would say that public transportation would likely be the
best alternative unless the hotel in question is very close and you
don't mind the adventure of walking. Currently the price of a 15 trip
pass on BTS (the SkyTrain) is Bht 350 (about $11.66); a 3 day pass on
MRT (the subway -- QSNCC is on the subway) is ~$7.33, so about $30 would
basically take care of travel expenses for the week...
