Hotels in Bangkok - Prices and Reviews

We set off in especially good time to Manchester airport and, as luck would have it, then got trapped into a series of delays which meant that we were several hours late taking off. Luckily, we had some slack time in Heathrow but this was all used up and we had to speed madly from one terminal to the other just in time to catch the Bang...

Plane took off from KLIA at 9pm. Reached BKK 2 hours later. At first, it seemed that the airport was deserted, with no one to be seen. Turns out that everyone else was 2 floors up, where all the action was. I hung around the prayer room at the airport. Latched my laptop on some stray wifi connection. 2 hours later, it was boarding time for Sydne...

'It's always good to get yourself into a few situations.' - Dave Barwise The night train to Bangkok was an absolute belter, an easy travelling highlight and one of the most comfortable twelve hours of transit we could have hoped for. Just like the longboat to Burma, travelling overnight in a bed has great merits, something I'd take any day over ...

Phew! Just got in from a full 8 hrs of shopping! Oh, yes, 8 hours! I went to the largest flea market in Bangkok and did some damage! I think I can open my own stall with all my purchases! What fun - I got totally lost a bunch of times - there is a huge labyrinth of aisles upon aisles filled with all that your mind can imagine - clothes, shoes, j...

We arrived in Bangkok at 6am after a 12 hour bus ride from Chiang Mai. I think we've had enough of bus rides for the moment. In 26 days we've travelled approximately 70 hours on buses alone. If you count transit time (including ferries), add another 20 hours! When we arrived back in Bangkok for the 3rd time in the past 26 days at 7am and we head...

Content with our tans we headed back for our final few days in Bangkok. A city that is vibrant and synomonous with travellers. We opted to live out the trip in relative luxury and opted for an expensive room in the guesthouse (still dirt cheap!) that meant air con, ensuite, cable tv and a rooftop pool, which came in handy! The Ko San Rd is full ...

so sad, so sad, i m leaving the "city of angels" (bangkok aka home away from home) to go back home to another "city of angels" los angeles. no, no it is not a typo! bangkok, or at least its local/ thai name abbreviation "krung thep" roughly means "city of angels". bangkok's name was changed but for some reason it stubbornly stuck around and wou...

Arrived in Bangkok on the King's birthday so the city is absolutely manic, in a good way of course. Everybody is wearing yellow and everyone is in great spirits. Went for dinner and a few bevvies on the infamous Khao San Road and saw our very first jing jokh, aww. There are vendors along the street selling snacks from fruit to pancakes to fried ...

The first thing I will say about Thailand is this: it's a good thing that my tickets home are non-changeable, or I'd probably stay here indefinitely. This place is wonderful... The best thing about Thailand is, of course, the food. I was actually quite pained on arriving here, because I didn't know how to decide what to eat first. There is a lim...
