Arcade Bus Terminal or Arcade Bus Station both options the right ones. It is possible and without the word Arcade to speak, as if you the tourist, then the local, most likely you on this bus station and Orient. There is another bus station, Chang Puak called, but It is of local importance, and you are unlikely to come in handy. So by bus You will arrive at the Arcade, and you will leave the bus with him. By the way from here and minibas to Pai go, I mention, because Pai is a place popular, so for information.

I don’t have schedules of all buses and minibuses, therefore lay out all that is, and that seemed to me useful.
Bus company Nakonchai Air
Very comfortable buses. And their vip-32 class for the eyes enough, it seemed to me even more convenient than vip-24, so as the seats, well, very reclining, and the width of me all equally.
Nakonchai Air (NCA) First Class (21 seats) to Bangkok 876 baht, buy only 2-3 weeks, otherwise it will not. Wide leather massage seats (3 seats in a row). Gold class (32 seats) at Bangkok 657 baht, on weekdays a couple of hours before departure there is, in weekends and holidays can not be in time. Enough comfort for man of medium size.
