MALJR Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 We will be visiting Thailand for four weeks in April. We plan on spending most of our time revisting Bangkok and would like to find a place to set up shop for a month. It doesn't have to be fancy but we would like something clean with WiFi. I know I've seen this subject before but can't seem to find it by searching. Any help and/or suggestions would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beechboy Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 (edited) Apartment? Is Bright City on Soi 11 still going? I used to stay there a lot. You can get a mini apartment for a month for not more than 20, 000 bht. Otherwise Grand President nearby have apartments across from the main hotel ... slightly pricier but a bit better.

Mrjlh Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Win Long Hotel...Off Chareon Krung Rd, Bangkok. Tucked in behind several buildings off main road. In the middle of the jewelry district. OK for short stay but would not want to live there long time. For people on a budget. Very basic services. Has restaurant, laundry service, small 7/11 type store. Around 15,000-20,000B a month (negotiate). Either walk (800) meters to Taksin BTS or take baht bus or cab. Can walk to Silom Rd easily. Lived there 6 years ago so don't know status now, They also remodeled so maybe improved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MALJR Posted March 12, 2013 Author Share Posted March 12, 2013 I seem to remember some mention of a hotel or serviced apartment in the Chatuchak area that had a monthly rate, anyone have more info? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruckus205 Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Good topic. I will also be needing something like this come April 1st. I am sure many of the places that do month, well also consider weekly as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rgs2001uk Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Try here, http://www.omnibangkok.com/ Personally I wouldnt pay that, decide on what area you want, there are plenty of Thai mansion/apartment hong pak places all over the city that will cost about 1/3 of the above rates that are about 30k baht per month. Nasa Vegas at Klong Tan is one such place about 7k per month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walking distance to huai kwang mrt about 10 min to asoke /sukhumvit. Area is good, lots of Thai style stuff and prices around. Pretty new and good rooms, decent wifi. Can't remember the prices but I think I negotiated a discounted two week stay a year or two back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Serves him right for being such a CC and staying in such a dump.

Scottythai Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 I live around JJ. Try up more close to Kasert Uni. Have some good places there for cheap. Just have to know how to use the Skytrain when you go into town. Sawadee place is one off the top of my head Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Searat7 Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 I have lived at Oasis condo in Silom for over 8 yr. Great pool, wireless Internet and restaurant in building. Probably 15,000 for a month...depends on size of unit. Can't beat the location. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MALJR Posted March 15, 2013 Author Share Posted March 15, 2013 We lived in Bangkok from 2001 - 2003 and have been back several times since. Using the Skytrain is no problem. Do you have any contact info for the places near the university? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me google that for you. Yes they have wifi. Booked through Agoda previously. Rooms are spartan but comfortable. Good inexpensive alternative to a hotel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This pal of mine happens to be a teacher....and wanted to keep costs low. You know its fine to try cheap places but in this instance he was unhappy with his choice. I'm simply sharing the information. Kindly leave the personal attacks for the footy forum ya gimp scammer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stayed there the whole last December and they told me it´ll be finished in Feb / March 2013 and when we came back last week they told me "we need some more time" ;-) But beside that, nice place and good price.
