April 2, 201115 yr Just moved into an apartment in Ratchada 17, lazy and cheap, any close parking for a motorbike? Not fimilar with the area.
April 2, 201115 yr If you are on soi 17, Sutthisan is by far the closest station to you. Huay Kwang is the closest station to the south, not TCC. Not sure how far in the soi you live, but the Sutthisan station isn't more than 400-500 meters from the "mouth" of soi 17 (where it meets Ratchada). I can't speak for Sutthisan, but as far as I know, there is no parking near Huay Kwang that could be considered "public." If you are quite far in the soi, you could also consider walking from your building to Ratchada and hopping a bus to Sutthisan; there are at least a half dozen routes that would do that short hop for a mere 7-8 baht

April 2, 201115 yr Not sure if they allow commuter parking, but Esplanade would be the closest parking to TCC that I know of, even though it's not your closest station.

As "planr" said, Huay Kwang is between Sutthisan and TCC, so if they are 1km away, then you should be right next door to Huay Kwang. I think you're getting confused between Huay Kwang and TCC. TCC is between Carrefour and Esplanade, so it's a long way from Soi 17. Looking at google maps, Soi 17 is about 300m from Sutthisan, and a km from Huay Kwang. Why don't you catch a motorcycle taxi?

Yea I was, TCC is 2 away even, don't really wanna get a motobike taxi or taxi (2 ppl) for 40bht everytime I come and go ... I noticed TCC has park and ride, but how much and do threy take motorbikes?
April 4, 201115 yr There is a car park right at the mouth of Soi 17, as it meets Ratchada...not sure if it's a private/company car park though, got to be worth an ask. There's a guard there letting people in/out. Also, just before you get to the mouth of Soi 17 (about 300/400 yards back into the Soi) is Wattana Mansion. I know they have parking under this building, mainly for residents/guests of Wattana Mansion, but again, might be worth an ask.
