just came back from bkk.. with a party of four

overall whole trip was great with rain evening and night.

i stay in baiyoke boutique hotel - decent only. nothing much to shout about beside it is near to all the shopping area.
Bathroom was dark and air- con on one mode only, full blast - cant lower the temperature or anything.

Platinum Mall - my advice dont go to early in the morning although it open at 8 am, most of it only open around 10 something. and some shop assistant are very rude. "if u dont buy, dont touch." i not even ask the price of the item yet. if i ask for discount and after nego i dont buy, i dont mind kena lansi, i was just flip and feeling the quality of the shirt only. pun kena lansi mad.gif  mad.gif

Chatuchak Market - still the best place to buy stuff and makan non stop.

Centre World - Naraya still crowded with alot of people. and on the food street, they still make great ikan garam bakar (tilapia and snakehead) .. best gila  thumbup.gif  thumbup.gif

ChocolateVille - when there by taxi from hotel for 400 baht.. was raining on the way there, but stop when we reach there. nice place to makan, their BBQ ribs was the BEST !!!  alot of picture was taken and they have their Halloween night decor. when return back hotel cost me 350 baht.

Neverland Siberian @ Truelove Cafe -  great place to have a drink, cake and play with a total of 24 husky for 350 baht per pax . this place is quite isolated and not much taxi driver aware of this place. the cafe is @ resident area and way of the main road.

Khao San Road - i must go place in bangkok for their tattoo parlor, got my tattoo done. and manage to makan the scorpion, spider and insect.. one word - crunchy !!!

Asiatique - nothing to lose if dont go there. thing are expensive and makan also not that cheap. my opinion.

and makan alot of different street food. until know sore throat and baru see doctor for medicine only.  cry.gif  cry.gif  but worth it
*
Thanks for reviewing your trip here. Hmm.....I should go Asiatique or choose to go to Chocolateville.....

Novotel Bangkok Platinum Mall and Novotel Bangkok on Siam Square..which one nearer to BTS?

Yea..Accor is having sales, but not for Asia hotels for now. Im still waiting.  tongue.gif

Nop, this year is my first time to Bangkok. Next year Jan second time smile.gif

I go HK every year tho smile.gif

I heard about that train market but never been there. I'm only going to Chatuchak for the first time next year, huhu....

I suppose Novotel Siam Square is nearer to BTS.

Yeah I'm waiting for the sales too.

Chatuchak is a good place to hunt for cheap stuffs, but the heat is really something else. make sure you try the coconut ice cream, just beside the tower.
*
Yeah coconut ice cream is a must. Oh ya, I'll go on end of Jan, will it be less hot?

hi all
may i ask your advice and expert opinion

i will be going to Chatuchak to buy some clothing. where is a good place to stay?

preferably near, cheap but must be safe... for 2 persons. might buy as much as 4 luggage worth of clothing and accessories for a small business

urgent info needed...

your advice is deeply appreciated

thanks
*
You may check with Airbnb, inside got lots of apartment or room to rent. I rented one apartment at Thonglor (walking distance to Thonglor BTS) for RM180/night only. Maybe you can consider also cause BTS is very convenient

I'm going on end of jan next year, one of the main reason I chose to go in jan is because the weather is cooling. Can't wait.

How many of you going? 2? You try to search thru AirBnb. I will be staying in an apartment which I booked from Airbnb, cost me RM180 for one whole apartment, walking distance like less than 5 minutes to Thonglor BTS.
