Bangkok Airport Transfers

Bangkok has two main airports used by travelers: Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK) and Don Mueang Airport (DMK). BKK is usually used for many international flights, while DMK is common for budget airlines and domestic flights.

Suvarnabhumi Airport Transfers

1. Suvarnabhumi Airport Rail Link

Airport Rail Link

The Airport Rail Link is one of the easiest and cheapest ways to get from Suvarnabhumi Airport to central Bangkok. It is best if you are staying near Phaya Thai, Makkasan, Siam, Asok, or Sukhumvit areas.

  • Time: Around 26 minutes to Phaya Thai
  • Fare: Around 15 to 45 THB
  • Best for: Solo travelers, budget travelers, light luggage
  • Main connections: Phaya Thai for BTS, Makkasan for MRT
  • Why choose this: Fast, affordable, avoids Bangkok traffic

The Airport Rail Link fare is around 45 THB from Suvarnabhumi Airport to Phaya Thai and around 35 THB to Makkasan. Trains usually run from early morning until midnight.

Travel Tip: If your hotel is not near a train station, take Airport Rail Link first, then use BTS, MRT, taxi, or Grab for the final part of the trip.

2. Public Taxi from Suvarnabhumi Airport

A taxi is better if you have big luggage, arrive late at night, or travel with family. Official airport taxis use the meter, but extra charges may apply.

  • Time: Around 35 to 60 minutes, depending on traffic
  • Fare: Meter fare plus airport surcharge and tolls
  • Best for: Families, groups, late-night arrivals
  • Pickup area: Level 1 taxi area
  • Extra cost: Airport surcharge and possible baggage fees

Suvarnabhumi Airport states that public taxi fares start with the meter rate, plus a 50 THB airport surcharge. Baggage fees may also apply. Grab is also available at Level 1, Gate 4.

3. Private Airport Transfer

Private transfer is the most comfortable choice if you want someone waiting for you at the airport. It is also good for first-time travelers, families with kids, or those arriving after midnight.

  • Time: Around 35 to 60 minutes
  • Fare: Higher than taxi, depends on car type
  • Best for: Families, groups, seniors, heavy luggage
  • Why choose this: No need to queue, fixed pickup, direct to hotel

Don Mueang Airport Transfers

1. Airport Bus A1, A2, A3, A4

Don Mueang Airport Bus

Airport buses are useful if you want a cheap way to reach BTS, MRT, shopping areas, or the old city area.

  • A1: To Mo Chit / Chatuchak area
  • A2: To Victory Monument
  • A3: To Lumpini Park
  • A4: To Sanam Luang / Khao San Road area

A1 and A2 buses cost 30 THB, while A3 and A4 buses cost 50 THB. A1 runs from 5:45 AM to midnight, while A2, A3, and A4 generally run from 6:00 AM to 11:00 PM.

Travel Tip: If you are staying near Sukhumvit, Siam, or Silom, take A1 to Mo Chit, then connect to BTS or MRT.

2. Taxi or Grab from Don Mueang Airport

Taxi or Grab is easier if your hotel is far from BTS or MRT stations. It is also better if you arrive late or have many bags.

  • Time: Around 30 to 60 minutes
  • Best for: Groups, luggage, late-night flights
  • Tip: Always check the route and fare before starting the ride

BTS Skytrain

BTS Skytrain Route Map

The BTS Skytrain is one of the best ways to travel around Bangkok. It is fast, clean, and easy to use, especially for places like Siam, Sukhumvit, Chatuchak, Silom, and Saphan Taksin.

Key BTS Lines

  • Sukhumvit Line: Good for Siam, Asok, Nana, Phrom Phong, Ekkamai, Mo Chit, and Chatuchak
  • Silom Line: Good for National Stadium, Sala Daeng, Chong Nonsi, Saphan Taksin, and Bang Wa
  • Gold Line: Useful for ICONSIAM

The BTS system operates daily from around 6:00 AM to midnight.

BTS Fare & Tickets

  • Single Journey Ticket: Good for one ride

  • One-Day Pass: Good for unlimited BTS rides on the same day

BTS single journey fares start from around 17 THB and go up to around 47 THB, depending on distance. The BTS One-Day Pass is 150 THB.

Rabbit Card

Rabbit Card is a stored-value card mainly used for BTS. You can top up at BTS ticket offices and selected machines. The minimum top-up is 100 THB, and the stored value can go up to 4,000 THB.

Quick Tip: Rabbit Card does not work the same way as Hong Kong Octopus. It is mainly for BTS and selected connected services, so keep some cash or card for MRT, boats, and buses.

Bangkok Metropolitan Rapid Transit Network

The MRT is another important train system in Bangkok. It is useful for Chinatown, the Grand Palace area, Chatuchak, Sukhumvit, Silom, and railway stations.

Key MRT Stops Travelers Should Know

  • Chatuchak Park: Connects to BTS Mo Chit
  • Silom: Connects to BTS Sala Daeng

🏨 Pro Tip: Don’t forget to look for Bangkok hotels near major attractions to make your sightseeing more convenient!

Bangkok Buses

Bangkok Buses

Bangkok buses are cheap and cover many areas, but they can be harder for first-time visitors because traffic is heavy and some signs may be in Thai. Still, buses are useful for budget travelers and local areas not covered by BTS or MRT.

Why Take Buses in Bangkok?

  • Very affordable
  • Good for local neighborhoods
  • Useful when train stations are far
  • Good backup when traveling short distances

Tips for Taking Bangkok Buses

  • Prepare small cash
  • Use Google Maps or ViaBus app to check routes
  • Press the stop button before your stop
  • Avoid peak traffic hours if possible
  • Keep your belongings close

Best for: Budget travelers, local areas, short trips, and travelers who already feel comfortable using maps.

Chao Phraya River Boats

Chao Phraya River

River boats are one of the most scenic ways to travel in Bangkok. They are useful for places near the river, including the Grand Palace, Wat Pho, Wat Arun, ICONSIAM, and Asiatique.

Popular Boat Options

  • Chao Phraya Express Boat: Good for local-style river transport
  • Tourist Boat: Easier for first-time visitors
  • Hotel shuttle boats: Some riverside hotels and malls provide shuttle boats
  • Private longtail boats: Good for tours, but agree on the price first

Chao Phraya Express Boat’s Orange Line fare is 18 THB flat rate, Yellow Line is 23 THB flat rate, and some other routes have different fares depending on the section.

Best Boat Stops for Travelers

  • Sathorn Pier: Connects to BTS Saphan Taksin
  • Tha Chang: Grand Palace area
  • Tha Tien: Wat Pho and Wat Arun crossing
  • Ratchawong: Chinatown area
  • ICONSIAM Pier: ICONSIAM shopping mall

Travel Tip: If you want to visit temples near the river, BTS to Saphan Taksin plus boat is usually easier than taking a taxi through traffic.

Taxis in Bangkok

Taxis in Bangkok

Taxis are everywhere in Bangkok and can be affordable, but traffic can make the journey slow. They are best for late-night trips, hotel transfers, or places not close to train stations.

Taxi Tips

  • Ask the driver to use the meter
  • Prepare small cash
  • Show your destination on Google Maps
  • Check if toll fees are needed

Tuk-Tuks

Tuk-Tuks

Tuk-tuks are fun for short rides and photos, but they are usually more expensive than taxis for tourists. They are best as a travel experience, not your main transport.

Tuk-Tuk Tips

  • Agree on the price before riding
  • Avoid “too cheap” rides with shopping stops
  • Best for short rides only
  • Not ideal during rain or heavy traffic
  • Keep your bag close

Best for: Short experience ride, photos, night market area, old Bangkok streets.

Motorbike Taxis in Bangkok

Motorbike Taxis

Motorbike taxis are one of the fastest ways to move around Bangkok, especially during heavy traffic. You can find them near BTS stations, MRT stations, malls, hotels, markets, and busy streets. Drivers usually wear orange numbered vests, and they are best for short rides.

Why Take a Motorbike Taxi?

  • Faster than cars during traffic
  • Good for short distances
  • Easy to find near stations and malls
  • Useful when your hotel or attraction is not near BTS or MRT
  • Good for solo travelers with small bags

How to Take a Motorbike Taxi

You can take a motorbike taxi from a roadside stand or book through ride-hailing apps like Grab, depending on availability. For roadside motorbike taxis, ask the price before riding. For app bookings, check the fare, pickup point, and driver details before confirming.

Motorbike Taxi Tips

  • Always wear a helmet if provided
  • Avoid motorbike taxis if you have big luggage
  • Do not use it during heavy rain
  • Keep your bag close to your body
  • Use it only for short trips
  • Choose BTS or MRT if you are not comfortable riding on a motorbike

Best for: Solo travelers, short trips, traffic hours, quick rides from BTS or MRT stations to hotels, cafés, markets, or attractions.

Ride-Hailing Apps in Bangkok

Grab

Ride-hailing apps are helpful in Bangkok, especially when you do not want to explain your destination. Grab is commonly used, and other local transport apps may also be available depending on your phone setup.

Why Use Ride-Hailing Apps?

  • Easier destination input
  • Fare shown before booking
  • Good for late night
  • Useful when traveling with luggage
  • Less language problem

  • Check pickup point carefully
  • Some malls and hotels have fixed pickup areas
  • Prices may increase during rain or peak hours

Overall, the experience was okay, but there are a few areas for improvement: First, the bed is a spring mattress, and it makes a lot of noise with even the slightest movement, making it very uncomfortable to sleep on. It feels like my back is unsupported. Second, I suggest moving the mirror in front of the bed somewhere else. Otherwise, it's quite startling when each person has their own bed.

Hotel is located near BTS Thong Lo station, around 8-10mins to there. Road is crowed but it is quiet living place. Hotel provides tuk tuk every 30mins to the station. Room is very big and clean as well as washroom. Cleaners are doing quite well. If you don’t aim for swimming, the limited swimming pool is acceptable, just for relax is fine.

Siam Bangkok|3.59km from city center
The hotel is conveniently located near the Airport Rail Link Phaya Thai station, just a 5-minute walk after exiting the station. It's very easy to get to the Siam shopping district, only two BTS stops away, and there's also a King Power duty-free shop nearby. The hotel has two buildings, and we stayed in the new one. The room was quite spacious, and the bedding was comfortable. The bathroom was huge but the facilities were a bit old, with only a bathtub. The hotel breakfast wasn't extensive, but it had all the basics. The boat noodles were particularly tasty, and there was also chicken congee, which many Chinese guests would enjoy, along with Tom Yum Goong and curry. The pool on the 6th floor is excellent, especially swimming at dusk on the rooftop with a breeze – it really gives you a vacation vibe. We also checked out some popular Instagrammable coffee shops and pad kra pao nearby, and even found a food stall with a line of locals. It's great to stay in a convenient location!

Since I had an early flight, I went to the front desk around 8:30 AM to drop off my luggage. They were very accommodating and told me they would prepare my room early and asked me to come back at 10 AM. Thank you very much! All the staff members were great; they greeted me every time we crossed paths. The room also had a washing machine, and there was even a single-use detergent packet, which was very helpful. The hotel is close to the station, about a 10-minute walk, but there are other hotels like Grand Hyatt and Waldorf around, so there's no shortcut, which made it feel a bit far for me 🥲. It's about a 15-minute walk from Big C and CentralWorld. It's also conveniently located for two BTS lines, so I recommend it!

Siam Bangkok|3.73km from city center
I had stayed in a standard king room in the main building before and thought the hotel was decent, so I booked a deluxe king room again, but it was a huge disappointment. First, they asked if we minded a room at either end of the hall. We said to avoid it if possible. They then assigned us a king room with no bathtub, which was also smaller and on a different floor than what I had booked. We were really unhappy, so we asked to switch to the room type we had reserved. This time, they gave us a twin room, directly facing the elevator. This was completely different from what I had booked. Finally, they gave us a king room that matched the location and floor, and it even had a bathtub. However, being moved twice and all the hassle until past 1 AM left us utterly exhausted. I will not choose this hotel again.

This stay was fantastic! The hotel's location is excellent, making it super convenient for getting around. The room was clean and tidy, and the bedding was soft and comfortable, so I slept very soundly. The front desk service was warm and attentive, and check-in was very efficient. The room was well-equipped, with a full set of toiletries, and the cleanliness was top-notch. The overall environment was quiet, and the soundproofing was good. It offers great value for money, and I'll definitely choose this place again next time I'm in town. I highly recommend it to everyone!

We stayed in this hotel 2 years ago which had great experiences. Same as last time , we stayed at deluxe king bedroom. After we checked in and got the room, we have waited 20 mins still doesnt have anyone send us back out suitcase . So i have called to reception to follow up and it took another 10 mins before we actually got the suitcase. The room was good , clean, well prepared a small cake to surprise us as anniversary. Amenities could have extra toilet roll and tissue box as backup. When we called for amenities, it took quite a long time to send to us. Front desk staff wasn’t as friendly as before and we don’t feel the welcome and warmness like last time we had stayed. Even when we check out , the girl was really robotic, and her eye was just focus on her computer screen while saying goodbye to us. Gym was still one of the best gym for hotel fitness facilities. Breakfast menu was pretty much the same, didn’t change at all . It was reasonable . Staff in restaurant also not as friendly as before. There were few new staffs ( i guess )which hard to communicate and not proactive at all. Overall , hotel hardware was good , location was good , but professionalism from the staff needs to improve and maintain.

Sukhumvit Bangkok|3.87km from city center
The hotel is located in the Sukhumvit area. The staff were very friendly and provided excellent service. During my first stay, the room was nice and well equipped with everything I needed, including large bottles of shampoo and body wash, a hair dryer, a kettle, tea and coffee, a wardrobe, and a small working area. However, my experience during my second stay was not quite as good. There was a small hole in the door, which made me feel a little uncomfortable, although it was not possible to see through it from outside. The sink was also clogged. The staff were very helpful and immediately sent someone to fix it. When it could not be repaired, they kindly upgraded me to a family room. Despite the issues with the room, I was very impressed with how the staff handled the situation and took care of me. The location is also convenient, with a 7-Eleven and several restaurants nearby. I would stay here again if I needed to attend a meeting in this area. The only downside is that the surrounding area can feel a little unsafe or uncomfortable when walking alone at night.

The room was spacious enough, with plenty of room even with a large suitcase open. I was very satisfied with the service, which included a large refrigerator, daily water replenishment, and even free Coke and instant noodles. The bathroom also had a bidet, and the hot water flow and pressure were strong and comfortable. Regarding the location, there's a shopping center nearby and Big C is very close, so there's no problem with dining or shopping for groceries. On the other hand, I was bothered by a slight musty smell, perhaps due to the age of the building, and the noise from cars, as it faces a main road, was quite loud. If you can overlook the slight age and noise, I think this hotel offers excellent value for money in terms of convenience and service.

Suvarnabhumi Airport Bangkok|12.89km from city center
The hotel looks nice from the outside, and the staff were polite. However, the room felt a bit dated and could benefit from some maintenance and refurbishment. The pillow had a slight odor, and a few facilities in the room were showing signs of wear, such as the soap holder, bidet spray, and toilet seat. The bathroom could also use more attention to detail, as I noticed some spider webs. One thing to be aware of is that the hotel appears to be popular with China groups, and the lobby was often quite busy. At times, some guests were lying down in the lobby area, which made the atmosphere feel an uncomfortable.

## Accommodation Experience Review | A Quality Stay You'll Love After Just One Night My stay this time truly exceeded expectations. From the moment I stepped into the lobby, I could feel the hotel's attention to detail. The overall decor is minimalist and modern, complemented by warm lighting and a pleasant fragrance, instantly making me feel relaxed and as if all the fatigue from my journey had vanished. The room was more spacious than I imagined, and the cleanliness was impeccable. The bed had just the right firmness, and the pillows offered excellent support; I fell asleep almost instantly. The room was well-equipped, featuring high-speed Wi-Fi and an LCD TV, along with thoughtful touches like tea bags, coffee, and bottled water, allowing guests to enjoy leisure time whenever they wished. The most delightful surprise was the view outside the window, which offered different charms both day and night, making me linger for a few extra minutes to admire it. The bathroom was equally satisfying. The dry and wet separation design made it more convenient to use, and the hot water supply was stable with ample pressure, making it incredibly comfortable to wash away the day's tiredness. The quality of the amenities was also good, exuding a subtle fragrance that enhanced the overall quality of the stay. Beyond the excellent facilities, the service quality deserves even greater praise. The front desk staff were friendly and enthusiastic, making the check-in and check-out processes fast and smooth. They were patient and helpful whenever I had questions or issues. From arrival to departure, I felt like a valued guest, which significantly enhanced the entire trip. The location is another major advantage of this accommodation. It's close to popular attractions, business districts, and transportation hubs, making it very convenient for both sightseeing and business trips. There's a rich selection of nearby restaurants, local eateries, and convenience stores, so finding suitable dining options is easy, even if you need a quick bite. Breakfast is an undeniable highlight. The variety of dishes is diverse, ranging from Chinese congee and Western pastries to fresh fruits and beverages – everything you could wish for. The ingredients were fresh, and items were replenished quickly. Enjoying breakfast slowly in the comfortable dining environment set a beautiful tone for the day's itinerary. Overall, this is an accommodation option that combines comfort, convenience, and high-quality service. Whether for family trips, couples' getaways, friend gatherings, or business needs, you're guaranteed an excellent stay. Besides enjoying the scenery, choosing good accommodation is equally important, and this experience certainly left a deep impression. If you're planning a trip soon, I wholeheartedly recommend adding this accommodation to your must-stay list. It's not just a place to rest; it's a place where you can relax, recharge, and enjoy life. Upon leaving, I already started looking forward to my next stay, and I believe that once you experience it yourself, you'll love it just as much as I do. ⭐Accommodation Rating: - Room Comfort: ★★★★★ - Cleanliness Quality: ★★★★★ - Service Attitude: ★★★★★ - Location: ★★★★★ - Value for Money: ★★★★★ Overall Review: A high-quality stay worth revisiting, recommended for all travelers seeking an ideal accommodation. 🏨✨

I can't believe they didn't provide toothbrushes or drinking water after I used the toilet. Plus, the bathroom had no door! Early check-in cost 700 THB, which for a room that's nearly 1000 THB a day, is a bit much. Overall, the place isn't bad, but these small things really detracted from the experience. The location, however, is excellent, and the market downstairs is great with lots of good food. There's also a 7-Eleven right downstairs, and they even allow free motorcycle parking.

Pratunam Market Bangkok|3.41km from city center
This was my second stay here, this time on the 45th floor. The room was still good, but my previous stay was in a higher-tier room with a floor-to-ceiling window and a higher floor, which was naturally more comfortable. I'd recommend booking as early as possible to get a better room type for roughly the same price. The air conditioning temperature couldn't be adjusted, and it was a bit too cold at night, so if you're sensitive to cold, bring extra long-sleeved clothing. The great thing about staying here is the opportunity to enjoy the changing light throughout the day and night, and to go up to the free 360-degree rotating observation deck to overlook the entire Bangkok – it's fantastic for photos. However, if you want to take pictures with people in them, using the restaurant's balcony during breakfast (which is paid) provides better photo opportunities. You can also move between different balconies to get a 360-degree view of Bangkok. While the breakfast itself is just average, the unparalleled view is, in my opinion, well worth it! I usually arrange this as my last hotel stop before returning home because the Pratunam area is convenient for buying souvenirs, and I feel secure leaving my luggage here. Taking the A3 bus to Don Mueang Airport is also convenient and quick. However, be aware that this time when I waited for the A3 at the bus stop at the alley entrance, I was misled by the ”A3, No Service” message on the bus stop sign, thinking it meant the service was suspended. In fact, it runs approximately once an hour, so it likely meant the electronic display couldn't read the schedule information. Checking bus times on Google Maps is more reliable. If you're going to Suvarnabhumi Airport, the Airport Rail Link City Line is equally convenient. Regarding souvenirs or personal items, if you need pain relief cream, I found that 'Tai Ru Yi' inside The Market Bangkok was much cheaper than Big C next door (Counterpain Hot 120g, 135 baht; Cool 120g, 144 baht). Bio Treatment hair mask sachets were 8 baht, and the red label 3-in-1 milk tea packs were 45 baht for 100g (180 baht for 500g, but this 500g pack wasn't the cheapest – I saw the cheapest at the red label milk tea branch in the basement of Robinson Department Store near BTS S6 station, 165 baht for 500g (50 baht for 100g)).

The hotel is located in the CBD. The staff saw I was traveling with a child and upgraded us to a larger room for free. Although it's in the city center, it's very quiet. The breakfast included Chinese-style dishes, and the service staff were warm and attentive. Be sure to try the spa! Banyan Tree's in-house essential oils are fantastic, and the therapists are very professional. I enjoyed a special package (90 minutes for around RMB 800, which also included afternoon tea on the 45th floor). The surrounding area is also very convenient. Just a heads-up: durians are not allowed back into the hotel! It's a good idea to download a translation app, as most of the hotel staff speak English and Thai... Fresh fruit was replenished daily in the room. Even though it's an older brand, it still stands strong, which shows that Banyan Tree definitely has its unique charm!!!

We stayed for 3 nights and the room was not vacuumed at all during our stay.

I’ve booked this hotel for 18 years whenever I visit Bangkok, and I always found the location quite good. This time I booked it again, but the hotel facilities feel really old. It was a balcony room, but the balcony couldn't be opened. The whole room felt cramped, and the wardrobes were old-fashioned wooden ones. The bed was very soft, and the power outlets weren't by the bed but behind the pillows, which was quite inconvenient. However, the room was reasonably soundproof. The stir-fried dishes at breakfast were just so-so, to be honest. The only real positive is still the location; you can walk to Siam from here.

Sukhumvit Bangkok|7.78km from city center
The hotel is about a 5-10 minute walk from Phra Khanong BTS station (exit E8). It's quite convenient to get to the airport via the highway. Although it's not in the city center, it was a good choice during the recent flood as this area wasn't affected much. Being close to the highway is important; it took only 30-40 minutes to the airport with smooth traffic! The bed and pillows were also very comfortable. The separation between the wet and dry areas in the bathroom wasn't great; water tended to overflow. I was also startled to see a cockroach on the table, especially since I was on the 14th floor. However, the overall room size was good and spacious. Considering it was a long weekend, the price was only TWD 1,500 per night. Overall, the good points outweigh the minor flaws.

The location is very convenient as it is just a stone's throw away from Asok BTS and Sukhumvit MRT. My original booking was for jacuzzi room but it was under maintenance when I arrived. They did upgrade me to a bigger room. The staff are always very welcoming and friendly. There are great food options from cafes to local food. And Terminal 21 is just a 5 minute walk away. The quickest way from the airport if you are traveling light i.e. Carryon luggage is to take the airport rail to Makkasan Station and walk to Phetchaburi MRT. Take one station to Sukhumvit MRT use the skywalk at Asok BTS towards Nana BTS and take the stairs down on the right. After that, it's just a 2 minute walk to the hotel.

The hotel provides a convenient shuttle bus service to the BTS station. There's also a small mall right across the street, making lunch options easily accessible. Additionally, the hotel has a hot spring, perfect for a relaxing soak in the evening. When I went at night, no one else was there, so I had it all to myself. The swimming pool is also very clean.

Stayed 2x weeks, it’s Located at 7-10 mins walks to Pom Phrong BTS, which is a big far in case of rainy days or at afternoon which could be scorching hot. But hotel provide half hourly shuttle which complimented this inconveniences. The only problem is limited seat for shuttle🫠, only single shuttle. If you missed have to wait another 30mins or walk back or take Grab😔. There is onsen inside the hotel which make this hotel very very special to me. I truly enjoy and like the onsen features. Another stood out thing is the social Night event every Monday-Wed evening, for an hour free flow of drinks and snacks, something impressed me, unique for this hotel. Though I did not patron every single day. I ate out every night regardless of this, it is a nice place to chill and socialise there. In-room washer make the long stay very pleasant and convenient, so as plenty of drinking water provided. There is no scenery view from hotel due to its location. The breakfast is average , where in some days below average. I truly enjoyed almost daily their swimming pool and onsen, just the operating hours only start at 7am which is a bit late. If could start at 6am instead would be perfect, else it will be a bit rush after use , prior go to work at 8am. The services was excellent. I would rate it 4 star instead , gates by its location and breakfast spread/ food. Aside from this they deserve 4.5star. Will stay again in future if visit BKK again. Oya, there is mini Japanese grocery minimart below the hotel, provide almost most of daily necessities, if you need it. There is pharmacy and 7-11 in opposite road and Tops besides it. Few atas massage shop near by with higher price, further down to BTS you could find cheaper one.

The room was spacious, featuring a mini-bar, a dressing room, and a cleverly concealed space for the washing machine. The water pressure was excellent, and the large bathtub filled up quickly. Breakfast offered a wide selection, including made-to-order items, hot dishes, desserts, bread, fruit, and salads; the menu varied slightly each day during our four-night stay. A shuttle bus conveniently departed every hour to the shopping mall. The swimming pool was large, with a separate children's splash pool. The location was convenient, surrounded by many chain massage parlors and convenience stores. The hotel staff were all very friendly. My family had a wonderful experience; it's very family-friendly, and we will definitely stay here again.

Had a very pleasant stay at Grande Centre Point Lumphini. The property is brand new, exceptionally clean, and nicely designed. The rooms are spacious with fantastic skyline views, and the daily free minibar is a great touch. Its location directly opposite the new One Bangkok mall and next to the MRT makes exploring effortless.My only critique is the check-in process. For a flagship 5-star property, making guests stand in a long queue to wait for room cards feels outdated. It would be a massive improvement if they offered arrival drinks or let guests sit comfortably in the lounge while the keys are being processed. Hopefully, management can look into this to match the high standards of the rest of the hotel. Still highly recommended!

The hotel is a bit of a walk from the BTS station, about a 10-minute walk from BTS Asok. There's only one convenience store along the way, and only two or three restaurants near the hotel, but lots of massage shops. The room was spacious and comfortable, although the view from my room wasn't great – it was very close to the building opposite, so I often had to keep the curtains drawn. The bathtub design was quite poor (water would splash out and wet the floor). The hotel doesn't provide toothbrushes (you need to bring your own). The breakfast buffet had very limited options, with only a noodle station offering a small selection of meat and meatballs. The swimming pool is quite large, not one of those small, instagrammable pools, you can actually swim properly in it. The hotel does have a shuttle, but it only goes to the end of the street. The housekeeping staff were very polite and always smiling, thumbs up! 👍🏻

Great stay at Qiu Hotel Sukhumvit! I really enjoyed my stay at Qiu Hotel Sukhumvit! One of the things I appreciated most was the daily room cleaning and fresh towels, which made the stay really comfortable. The hotel also has a great atmosphere, especially with the live band and happy hour from 2–8 PM. It’s such a nice way to relax after a day out. Check-in and check-out were super easy and convenient, which I really appreciated. The hotel also has some cute facilities, including a little mini-golf putting area, swimming pool, and gym, which added to the overall experience. Overall, it was a comfortable and convenient stay with some really nice facilities. I’d definitely consider staying here again!

Pros: 1. There's a washing machine (wash and dry combo), and they thoughtfully provided laundry detergent, so I didn't need to buy any. 2. The master bedroom has a large window with a great view, and there's also a bathtub for soaking, complete with bath salts. 3. I stayed on the 31st floor, which was very quiet. The staff were friendly and helpful, assisting with luggage from check-in to check-out. 4. The gym facilities are excellent, and you can even see the pool downstairs. Cons: 1. The TV isn't a smart TV. Although it has channels from various countries, it lacks YouTube and Netflix. Screen casting only works for certain apps (like YouTube). 2. There are too few power outlets in the room, not nearly enough for charging. Most importantly, there are no outlets in the bathroom, so I had to blow-dry my hair in the living room. 3. The master bedroom has a toilet, but it's tiny. The door barely opens without hitting the toilet. 4. The second bedroom doesn't have a toilet; you have to use the one in the living room.

Sukhumvit Bangkok|8.73km from city center
Pros: The location is the biggest plus: the hotel is directly connected to On Nut BTS station, so it's super convenient to get anywhere. The hotel is in the same building as Century On Nut, making dining and shopping incredibly easy. - During my stay, I happened to catch the On Nut weekend night market, which was very lively and added a lot to the experience. Cons: The facilities are severely inconsistent with a five-star rating, which is the main drawback: - The air conditioning had to be set to a very low temperature; otherwise, there was a very strong musty smell in the room (I suspect the filter hadn't been cleaned in a long time). - The shampoo and shower gel bottles in the bathroom were attached to the wall with very flimsy adhesive holders that would come off with a slight pull – the quality was concerning. - Upon checking in, I found a torn hole in the duvet cover under the mattress. - The TV remote control was broken on the first day. The staff were very nice and promptly replaced it. However, it stopped working again the next day when I returned to the hotel, so I had to get another replacement. After that, I just stopped using the TV for the rest of my stay. Summary: The staff's attitude is commendable, but the hardware and daily maintenance are truly unworthy of a five-star price and brand. If location is your top priority, it's the most convenient option in the On Nut area. However, if you have high expectations for accommodation quality, I'd advise you to think twice.

The hotel is right opposite the National Stadium, about a 2-minute walk from the BTS Skytrain station, making it incredibly convenient for getting around. You can take a taxi or the Skytrain, and even the food streets and night markets are just a 15-minute walk away. This is quite convenient given Bangkok's notorious traffic! The room isn't huge, and the facilities show a bit of age, but it's a cozy space with everything you need, offering a relaxed Thai ambiance. My favorite part was the pool on the 11th floor. Although it's not very big, it's super relaxing. 😎

The Carlton Bangkok is simply the MVP of Bangkok hotels! This is my fifth stay at the Carlton this year. The hotel's location is excellent, right opposite EmQuartier, making it super convenient for dining and shopping. There are two 7-Elevens nearby, and also some izakayas, so late-night snacks are no problem, even without Grab. On the 10th floor, there's a Let's Relax. If you arrive on an early flight, you can drop off your luggage and head straight up for a massage and some rest. The hotel staff are genuinely, genuinely polite and friendly. Whenever you see them, they greet you with a smile and ask if you need any help. Some staff even recognized me and said 'welcome back,' which truly touched me. You can feel they really put their heart into their work. Every time I return to the Carlton, it feels like coming home 💗. It's a completely different experience compared to my last stay at Grand Centre Point. As for the room, it looks exactly like the photos on Trip.com. When I choose a hotel, the bathroom must be brightly lit, and the Carlton's bathroom is just unbeatable! I always sleep with a light on, and their bathroom has two lighting settings to choose from. When sleeping, you can just turn on the mirror light, which is soft and not dazzling, so sleeping with a light on is perfectly fine~ Additionally, the bed is so comfortable that I still miss it after returning to Hong Kong. My boyfriend is someone who usually has trouble falling asleep, but every time he lies on the Carlton's bed, he falls asleep very quickly. We ended up sleeping in every day 😂. Everyone visiting Bangkok absolutely must give this place a try! 🙌🏻

This is an old hotel, so the cleanliness is very poor. The cleaning was really bad. There was quite a serious mold problem in the bathroom, and the inside of the toilet was stained yellow. I stayed in the Krungthep Wing with a river view, and there were several obvious handprints on the suede headboard that hadn't been cleaned. I was disgusted, so I wiped them with a wet wipe, and they came off. You can't connect a shower filter in the Krungthep Wing bathroom. I had to take my filter to the sauna to shower there. My skin broke out because I couldn't connect the filter. The water cups smelled sour, so I had to wash those with soap myself too. More than anything else, the worst part was the cleanliness. The biggest problem is simply that the room cleaners aren't thorough, and it's also an issue that the hotel is old, so mold and dust are severe, but they don't take care of it. And it's not even a cheap price. However, I was very satisfied with the grandness of the old hotel and the spacious, resort-like feel, and the staff's kindness was also excellent. Even though it was dirty, I plan to come back next month, haha. Next time, I'll book the Main Wing so I can use a shower filter.

We stayed at this hotel for one night. We checked out early in the morning, so we didn't have breakfast. The hotel itself is very conveniently located, right next to a shopping mall. We chose it for the river view from the window and to be close to the Reclining Buddha Temple. The room was small, clean, and cozy. It had a very beautiful large window. We stayed on the 9th floor, and the view was lovely. We went up to the bar on the top floor, and the city view from there was simply fantastic.

I've been to Bangkok many times, and this trip was a quick one with limited time, so I chose a hotel in a bustling area. Being located above MBK was incredibly convenient. There's plenty of food downstairs, and a 7-Eleven is also nearby. Even if the weather is bad, you don't need an umbrella as there's a direct walkway connecting to MBK shopping center. Breakfast was included, and I managed to grab a quick bite even when I was in a hurry. The selection was diverse, and the food was good. The room was spacious and complimentary bottled water was provided, which was drinkable. Overall, I was very satisfied. From the moment I arrived, the staff helped with my luggage, and when I left, they even helped push it to the driver and load it into the car. The front desk service was also excellent!

Montisha, the room attendant, is very meticulous and keeps the room spotlessly clean. Amm, Aim, and many other staff members responsible for the vehicle services at the entrance are very dedicated and try their best to assist every guest. The restaurant staff and all employees encountered in public areas always wear a warm smile. The hotel offers a complimentary golf cart service to Central World, which is very considerate. It's also conveniently located near Siam Paragon and the BTS station. I always stay in a Lounge room, which makes the experience even more pleasant with excellent breakfast. However, this time I wanted to try more local food outside, so I didn't opt for the Lounge. Every stay here is a joyful experience.

Everything was great, and the environment was good. Although it's a bit tucked away in an alley, there's a shuttle bus to the alley entrance, which is quite convenient! There's only one thing that wasn't so good: the soundproofing is really terrible. I'm not someone who's overly sensitive to noise, but the sound insulation is genuinely very poor! On the first night, I could hear the people in the next room chatting very loudly, and they continued until past 5 AM, making it impossible to sleep, so I left early! When I returned to the room on the second day, there were two Korean guys next door, making a lot of noise all night, constantly ”****” (explicit word removed), again until 5 or 6 AM. It was only on the last night that it finally quieted down. Besides the soundproofing, everything else was basically good, and the hotel staff were very friendly! If they could improve the sound insulation, it would truly be a great hotel! I would definitely be willing to stay again!

The hotel has two swimming pools where you can swim while enjoying the river views. The overall atmosphere is very relaxing, making it perfect for spending a day in, simply enjoying the hotel's facilities. Dining options are also abundant, with delicious Thai, Italian, and Western cuisine available. You don't need to go out into the city to enjoy various culinary delights. Additionally, I highly recommend the Relax massage on the third floor of the hotel – it's incredibly comfortable after a day of exploring Bangkok's attractions. The surrounding area of the hotel is also very convenient. There are two 7-Eleven stores just a 2-minute walk away, along with many local eateries, markets, and massage parlors nearby, making it easy to venture out in the evening. Most importantly, for just over 4,000 baht a night, you get a hotel with full river views, pools, dining, and massage services. The overall value for money (CP value) is excellent. I highly recommend this accommodation for anyone looking for a comfortable, relaxing, and scenic stay in Bangkok.

Bangkok Transport Tips for Filipino Travelers

Bangkok is easy to explore if you use the right transport. For popular areas like Siam, Sukhumvit, Chatuchak, Silom, and Chinatown, take BTS or MRT to avoid heavy traffic.

  • Keep some Thai Baht cash for buses, boats, taxis, tuk-tuks, and motorbike taxis.
  • Use Grab or taxi for late-night trips, airport transfers, or when carrying luggage.
  • Try river boats for temples near Chao Phraya River, such as Wat Pho, Wat Arun, and Grand Palace.
  • Avoid taking taxis during rush hour if your destination is near BTS or MRT.
  • Prepare a Thailand SIM card or eSIM so you can use Google Maps, Grab, and translation apps easily.
  • Before your flight, submit the Thailand Digital Arrival Card and check eTravel Philippines requirements when returning to the Philippines.
