Bangkok Condos - Reviews and Rates

We arrived in Bangkok station in the morning and decided to get the night train to Chiang Mai instead of wasting a day on the train. We left our bags in the storage area and set off to have a look around Bangkok. We got around by underground train and the sky train. The trains here are open plan through all the carriages, which is quite nice, an...

One of the injections that we didn't have was rabies. Advice was that unless you were going to stay in Thailand or Malaysia for a long time, work as a vet or going caving where there were bats, it wasn't really necessary. We went prepared to leg it from angry dogs and cats, but Yvonne has never moved so fast when leaning over the balcony and a b...

Hello from Bangkok! You may not know this, but the official name of this city is the following: Krung Thep Mahanakhon Amon Rattanakosin Mahinthara Ayuthaya Mahadilok Phop Noppharat Ratchathani Burirom Udomratchaniwet Mahasathan Amon Piman Awatan Sathit Sakkathattiya Witsanukam Prasit. Which means: " The city of angels, the great city, the eterna...

Well, were getting ready to head to Chang Mai tonight on a sleeper train. Today were going to a huge Market, the biggest one in the world to be exact! Bangkok is such a strange, wonderful city. There's always traffic- I mean ALWAYS (It makes Houston traffic laughable)- street vendors are every 3 feet cooking up strange foods, most of which so fa...

Hi All, Well, we've finally arrived on the first leg of our travels.. the wierd & wonderful Bangkok. Had a couple of mad moments though before we even got on the plane from Heathrow.. First Eimear forgot her passport in Dublin. She'd left it on the photocopier at home. Easy mistake to make. Luckily we had arrived at the airport in plenty of time...

Cambodia - a country with a recent history of suffering and destruction, ongoing abject poverty and serious wealth, too may amputees and so many unexploded land mines, a depth of history and culture in spite of the best efforts of the Khmer Rouge, and inhabited by smiling and courageous people. There is more to see and I thought long and hard ab...

Did a little sight seeing, but mostly shopped! Have good and bad experiences from that (being ripped off by a mean tailor and fighting till we got part of our money back was one of the bad experiences) But shoppping is so great! The most we've spent (other than our semi-precious gems) is 7$ on billabong boardshorts! Gotta love it! J entry: our 1...

So we have been here nearly a week now (can't wait to get out of Bangkok!) The water festival was going on for about 5 days - Thai people certainly know how to party! We decided to give up on the Khao San Road after about 2 days and decided to consult the Lonely Planet (a.k.a backpackers bible) of other parts of the city we could explore. It was...

Nice start of my holidays: just paid a whopping 50% more for the Thai Airways tickets to Kuala Lumpur and from Penang than anticipated. :-(( Yup! I could have checked and found out beforehand that you get the right price at any travel agent outside the airport, but may I argue that a) last year it worked out OK on the Bangkok-Chiang Rai stretch ...
