Anyone been to the new(ish) Aussie embassy recently?

[giddyup]

How did you get there, self drive, taxi, bus etc? Is it easy to find?

Didn't know there was a new Aussie Embassy in Pattaya. Where is it supposed to be 😉

There isn't, but you already knew that didn't you?

Older threads warn that there is no parking nearby,

Most recommend to walk from MRT Lumpini. Short walk.

How to get to Bangkok is "up to you" and what you want to pay,

 

Cheap by bus, minibus and changing to public transport in Bangkok (MRT in this case) or take a taxi within Bangkok.

You ask on the Pattaya forum and not all expats live in Pattaya.

So expect some snippy answers.

 

It's on Witthayu rd ("wireless rd") as so many embassies.

Mine is north after Ploenchit rd. Will have to visit later in the year and will sure walk from BTS Ploenchit.

 

 

An ugly architectural monster by the way

Thanks. I asked on the Pattaya forum because it's from here I would be making my way to the embassy. If  I was in Hua Hin I would have asked on that forum.

Doesn't matter where you are mate you should be able to work this out for yourself. Get to BKK. There's the 1st thing you need to do. How you get there is up to you. When you're there find your way to the embassy. Admittedly BKK can be a bit daunting but use the net and Google maps and you'll get there. Make sure you make an appointment.

The "new" Embassy sucks, in my opinion.  Not very user friendly if one has mobility issues and it is raining.

Adjacent to the current embassy the One Bangkok office towers, mall etc officially opened a couple of months ago, so this should solve the issue of where to park the car if driving to the embassy.
