KunMatt Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 (edited) I'm having trouble finding this out for myself so I'm sure someone here can help me out. I'm coming to Thailand again in October for 4 to 6 weeks but we've just about had enough of living in hotels while we are there. Me and my gf miss being able to cook and eat at home and not living out of suitcases the whole time We stayed in a place in Phuket before which were these really modern one bedroom bungalows, with a kitchen/living room, all set within this pool complex for 1500 a night. That was ideal but we are planning to stay in Bangkok this time and need to find something that suits us like that. I don't even know where to start looking. Anyone got any ideas?? All we really need is a nice one bedroom (preferably not studio) apartment/house/hotel with a real kitchen (a microwave and a single hot plate is not a kitchen!!) for the month of October. If it has a pool then great, if not then no worries. We'd be spending about 35,000 on hotels for the month anyways so I'd like somewhere in the budget range from there to about 50k if it's worth it. I know I've left the criteria wide open but that's because I don't know what range of things are available in Bangkok. Can anyone suggest anything? Thanks in advance.

Xonax Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 We can strongly recommend a serviced apartment in "The Narathiwas Residence" http://www.thenarathiwas.com/ who have apartments meeting your requirements. We were very happy to stay in a 1 bedroom superior apartment, which is actually a studio, in last December (34.000 Bath/month). We did not miss the seperate bedroom, as the sleeping and living areas are seperated by the bathroom. They have a free shuttle service to Chong Nonsi BTS and to Central in Rama III Road. They have an own swimmingpool, and you also have access to the larger tropical swimmingpool in Belle Park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best Regards Mr Conrad Thank you Mr Conrad for all of those links. After today I'm sure I will get something sorted out, before looking through all of these links "The Narathiwas" that someone posted before looks ideal for us. I just need to check about the location and maybe have a backup in mind just in case. I'll checkout everything you suggested too. Thanks again.

Puccini Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 You don’t mention what part of Bangkok, if any, you prefer. Sardinian friends of mine stayed on the Thonburi side of the Chaophraya river and loved it. I searched in their emails to me and see that they booked through theriversidebangkok.com. Not particularly cheap, they said, but luxurious and excellent service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Matt, I would like to recommend Sivalai Place, Isaraphab Road and Charansanitwong Road. Just 10 min drive to Wongwien yai BTS (the nearest one) and Wang Lang Pier. I stayed at Sivalai Place for 3 month and a half months while studying abroad with my friend, and it was fantastic! We both loved it! 2 bedroom - 18,000 Baht per month. It's set way back in the soi, so you get a break from the smog and traffic. The ozone swimming pool is gorgeous, and was a great way to beat the Bangkok heat. The staff was so helpful and friendly, several spoke English very well. It was the best home away from home I could have found in BKK. I highly recommend this place.
