seank Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 Excellent place to stay. The gym, swimming pool, staff and rooms are all great. Its so much better than the Oakwood as everything is new and not in need of repair. The only issue (which made me move out) is that its not near any night life. If it’s a family place you need that this is perfect but if you are single than this is not the place for you. Shopwise- there is Rama3 Central department store 10minute walk away. Taxi to sukhumvit with no traffic is 15mins and 80bt. It takes 5minutes to get to Skytrain with no traffic and 40mins with traffic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ceylan Posted March 6, 2009 Author Share Posted March 6, 2009 Thanks for that info..its great to hear from someone who has stayed there. We are traveling with a 17 month old so it sounds perfect for us. I have been very impressed so far with the replies I have had from the manager so fingers crossed its as nice as it looks on the web.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doubleJ Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 I am also kinda looking for a place to stay also since I'm working at Sathorn. This residence looks kinda great but I'm wondering how far is it from Sathorn road though.... Maps always appear deceiving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ceylan Posted July 9, 2009 Author Share Posted July 9, 2009 We ended up staying for 5 weeks and I have to say turned out to be the best place I have ever stayed in Bangkok. Staff are so kind..breakfast is very good.. cant say a bad word about the place..Never had any problems getting around town..would be fine for work in Sathorn..Just wish I could book in for a week as next trip I wont be staying in bkk for the whole time as far as I know the shortest you can book in for is 2 weeks..

roverforlife Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 Sorry to hijack this thread. I am considering staying at this property for about 7 months from November, so do not have much time to think through. Distance to BTS is critical for me. Therefore, may I know if the property is 5min on foot to the station, or is that by vehicle? If I were to walk, how long would it take? Also, is there sufficient eating areas around the property? Sorry to be so abrupt, but would really like to hear from real people who have stayed there before (rather than the hotel's marketing team). Thanks so much!

No, it is a 5 min walk from the Apartments to the main road Naratiwat Srinakarindra, where numerous buses and taxis pass. There is no way you can walk to Chong Nonsi BTS. There might be a possibility that the Hotel offers shuttle bus service to the BTS. The other Serviced apartments in the same road such as Bangkok Garden and Oakwood, all provide shuttle bus service. Consult the hotel and if not, ask them for the best bus route. Hope I've helped a little bit The area is very good, Starbucks, restaurants, pharmacy supermarket are all at the exit of the compound. cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roverforlife Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 Thanks for your reply, Marios. I will probably reconsider the Narathiwas then, because I would need access to the BTS. There is a shuttle service to the BTS, but I do not like to rely on that. My other option is the Rajdamri, which is right next to the Ratchadamri BTS station. The negative though is that the area there has lesser convenience stores and eating places, apart from restaurants. I guess I'll have to look harder!
