Citin Pratunam is very near to Baiyoke Sky..walk out you get streets of food stall and night market at night.
approx 10mins to the BTS station. But have free tut tut shuttler every 30mins. Free internet connection and having PC at the lobby provided access to those that does not have laptop.

Breakfast is ok. But no meat...It's a vegetarian concept restaurant.
Bed is bit too hard for my liking. But room are clean.

U can either get package tour by walk-in to any tour agents in BKK (The most I heard ~! Khao San road)

Otherwise. just tapao any taxi outside your hotel for a day trip there. They will drive you there, wait for you & asking your permission to aloow him stopping at all those Gem stores & etc to collect petrol vouchers. & also bringing you to Elephant show, snake farm & etc...well u name it they will bring you lah...

The last I got in 2005 for 1 day trip was THB800 or RM80 to & fro BKK..excluding sampan fare ~ THB1000/boat. !!

ehhh when u last use LCCT? Already expanded lah & more comfy compare to last time but still very basic...BTWm the real food court is actually outside the termianl within 150m away...The Chicken rice & nasi Padang not bad & yet still reasonable compare to KLIA pricing...

The price is about the same as KL shopping malls ''food court pricing...& the drink also very reasonable too...U won't kena ketuk at LCCT food court for sure..

This is a proper Food Court cater more for LCCT & the cargo complex staff but lotsa passengers also there too...BTW, where in KL u can get a cup of cappucino for RM2? The LCCT food court does!!
