danny1977 Posted October 3, 2004 Share Posted October 3, 2004 Hello, Am planning on going to Thailand at the end of October (30th/31st) for 6 to 12 months. Will spend some time in Bangkok to start so was hoping to rent a place on a month by month basis for a while. I figure it may be cheaper than staying in a guesthouse for a couple of months but I don`t really know where to start looking. Can I get a decent place for around 10000B per month or am I dreaming? Anyone with any advice or suggestions please feel free. If you don`t know of any rental places then a cheap clean guesthouse recommendation would be useful. Around the 200-400B a night with shower mark should suffice on my budget. Also I am looking for a cheap open return flight (London to BKK) or one with low or no penalties for changing the return flight. Plan is to stay for 6 months but I know I`ll probably end up staying there for a year hence the return portion of the flight being flexible. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, Danny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valentinoxxx Posted October 3, 2004 Share Posted October 3, 2004 Danny Buy yourself a one way flight to Bangkok(You'll need to get a visa) . Currently around £250 with Etihad Airways. Then, when you are ready to return, you can purchase a one way(or return) ticket back to the UK.(Return prices from Thailand as little as £300) That way, you have the flexibility to return home when you need to, together with an extra ticket to get back out again. All for as little as £550. Of course, you do not need to buy a return once in Thailand. A one way back to the UK, starts from £150. 10,000 baht per month is not unrealistic. I have no experience with this type of accommodation, but I can list, for instance; VIP Mansion Sukhumvit 71 Soi Chuleeporn (fridge, TV, Tel, AC, cleaning, microwave... 6,500 baht per month(plus elec & water) Telephone: 02 7110952 SkyTrain: Phra Khanong I sure many have better examples. If all else fails, pick up the Bangkok Post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
