New one built opposite Varada Place near Santitham, unsure of price. New one a few months ago for cheaper very close to spirit restaurant and nu's place, also fairly near Santitham. Emperor or a similar named place that has been around for a while on Santitham Road, also a few new and old ones on the streets off Santitham, so it is worth biking around for a few hours.

Don't know, but why Santitham? It's a really dirty, seedy area.

Very seedy. All those young women in excessively short shorts and skirts.

And within walking distance of the YMCA with those cheap Thai language classes in that grubby building, that huge, confusing Thai Tanin Market and that old, seedy mall, Kad Suan Kaew. Yes, who would ever want to live in Santhitam?

Have you been here recently, most of the dirt comes from construction sites. There will soon be little left of the old Santitham, dirty or seedy

I love Santitham, it still has some quiet residential sois which are great places to live and the surrounding area has plenty of buzz. Much more real Thailand than some other areas of CM, though that too is changing. Years ago there weren't so many farangs in this part of town; now I see ever more Digital Nomad types around. Must be the 5000 Bt rooms....

That was 15-20 years ago.

Check it out.

Stayed at the Emporium Residences a few years back for a few months when it was one of the better places in the area. Went back a couple of years back and it needed a refresh. It's opposite Tesco Lotus. There are a few other places on that busy road, one on the roundabout which seems to be quite popular and also one called Nokkapao Place near Santisuk Road.

Best thing to do is drive around the area as there are loads of new places now particularly on the Sois leading up to the super-highway. A good area to grab food at any time and has a buzz about it. Santitham plaza has cheap beers and big screens to watch the football. There's a Moo-ga-ta there too (Thai BBQ) and also a swimming pool and Sauna within the complex. I wouldn't recommend a room within the plaza - cheap but not very good standard and noisy!

There are small parts of Santitham that are a little dodgy maybe but generally it is a great neighbourhood - if you'd been here recently you'd know

I live in the heart of Santhitam. It's noisy and funky, and I wouldn't want to live anywhere else.
