TPDH Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 (edited) Hey I'm looking for a condo in the areas of Phrom Pong, Thong Lor and Ekkamai but I'm wondering what's really the difference in terms of living between these 3 areas? Which one would you choose and why? Edited March 31, 2022 by TPDH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will B Good Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 (edited) You need money for Thong Lo....there if I had the money. Smart restaurants, nightclubs....(English pub).......and more dentists than you can shake a stick at for some reason.

Tong Lo have Chinese, Ekkamai have a bus station and Prom Pong have bars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnybangkok Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 I live between Thong Lor and Ekkamai. There's no difference between all 3 apart from Thong Lor between slightly more expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I had the choice I would go for Soi 8 or Soi 11......nice bars and restaurants, soi 8 is a dead end, so no through traffic.......and, not that it interests me,.......soi 7 and soi 4 are only 5 min walks.

TheScience Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 (edited) I stay out of thong lor completely. Don't need cop hassles. Actually, I'm not at all a fan of Sukhumvit (dislike all the farang, touristy bits) or the BTS. I remember when ekamai was out there and on nut was the last stop at the end of the world. Sukhumvit 101 ... Edited March 31, 2022 by TheScience 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackcab Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Phrom Phong is the area immediately around Sukhumvit 39. Thong Lo is the area immediately around Sukhumvit 55. Ekkamai is the area immediately around Sukhumvit 63. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brewsterbudgen Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Keep going past Ekkamai and you hit Phra Khanong, the beating heart of "midtown Bangkok". W District, J Bar, Summer Hill, PJ O'Briens...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
