Ritti Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 Well first of all you need to find an Aussie pub within walking distance....... What sort of Accom are you wanting? How many beds, townhouse,unit, service apartment? you will find numerous great places for 60 000b You could get a place for 55 000 and a full time maid/nanny Your work will prob be close to skytrain so anywhere along that will allow you easy access to work and social Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alaina Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 Live as close as you can to work-- especially if its on the river. You didn't mention which side of the river you'll be on, but you should live on the same side to avoid bridge traffic or a boat ride that is not as relaxing as it sounds. If you'll be closer to the Sathorn-ish side (nearer to the city's center) the The Meritus Suites, on the corner of Silom and Charoen Krung Road is serviced and very nice.

joeuk1 Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 I have been looking at the serviced condos also , most of the condos offered on the net are sh&tholes , i have given up with the net and will look once i land back in Bkk , i like the Centre point group but for 2 bed condo they are out of our price range . Please post up if you find anything nice . JB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
