Sukhumvit Psycho

The Rose Hotel Bangkok is a medium-sized boutique hotel located behind Le Meridien Hotel Silom on Surawong Road, 50 meters away from Patpong soi 1 & 2. Being distant from the main road, the hotel looks quiet and cozy. They charge 1,950 baht for a standard room including breakfast. WIFI in the room is not [...]

This is a reader’s request. I would expect that my readers ask about ‘a cheap hotel with swimming pool near the nightlife area’, or ‘a guest house with free WIFI near a BTS station’. But no. I got requests for luxurious serviced apartments like the Emporium Suites or 5 star hotels like the new Renaissance [...]

This is an email from a reader: President Palace hotel The hotel is next to ambassador in soi 11, about 150 m of Sukhumvit. Its a big hotel with pool, fitness centre and a Manchester united restaurant! The staff is very good and the hotel is clean. Climax is next door and its also a [...]

If you push a bit further than Lolita’s, down Sukhumvit soi 8 (yes you can!), you will find a rather quiet and cheap hotel on your right hand side, the Promenade Hotel. For 1,200 baht you will get a room, a breakfast and a free WIFI Internet connection, but only if you stay at one [...]

This review has been requested by one of the blog’s readers.

This comes as a surprise considering Amari Boulevard‘s location and the fact that Amari Atrium on Phetchaburi is Guest Friendly, but be informed that Amari Boulevard charges a joiner fee of 1,000 baht. Amari Boulevard is an Amari Group hotel located on Sukhumvit soi 5, very close to Gulliver’s Tavern. It is right in the [...]

The Four Wings hotel is a large 4 star hotel (312 rooms) probably underrated because of it’s location down Sukhumvit soi 26. However if you are looking for a high end hotel not too far from the center but still in a quiet area, Four Wings Hotel is a good option. Unlike Sukhumvit soi 24, [...]

Four Points by Sheraton is the newest luxury hotel in town. Located at the beginning of Sukumvit soi 15, opposite Hotel Manhattan Bangkok, it looks very nice and it doesn’t come cheap! A standard double room will cost you anywhere between 2,700 and 4,600 baht depending on days and occupancy, and it comes without breakfast [...]

Sukhumvit soi 19, the soi of the Westin Hotel, and opposite Sheraton Bangkok hotel, is full of new boutique hotels (and restaurants and shops) and Sacha’s Hotel Uno is one of them. Sacha’s Uno offers Standard, Superior and Deluxe rooms, all with modern furniture, flat screen TV and free wireless internet. On Agoda, the Superior [...]

Le Fenix Sukhumvit is a nice boutique hotel, quite famous in Bangkok for being also the address of the Nest rooftop lounge bar, and for its location, opposite to Q Bar Bangkok. In other words, it’s a rather trendy hotel and I was surprised when they quoted 1,907 baht for a night (double room, no [...]
