WTF is Sukhumvit?! Reasons to stay or not?!

Sukhumvit in Bangkok is one of the most visited areas of the city along with Khaosan Road! Check out this video to see why you should be staying in Sukhumvit on your next trip to Thailand
Soi 4: Mix of Nana plaza adult entertainment and Hillary live music bars that everyone can enjoy. Pool bars, irish bars and even ladyboy bars if thats your cup of tea
Soi 7: Mostly beer bars for the single man.. although there is a beer garden a little more down the road thats more chilled out
Soi 8: wide selection of places for everyone including an epic pizza place call Vasizio that I would highly recommend!
Soi 11: Beer bars, Gogo bars, Night clubs, Rooftop cars and Restaurants... an all around good street for nightlife
Soi 13: More chilled set back from the road although it does have a Hooters haha
Soi 21: World famous Soi Cowboy is here for all to see.. Seen in the movie the Hangover
Soi 22: Massage central!

I always love sukhumvit soi-34 at thonglor bts near to my low-rise cozy and quiet condo!🙏💕

[@tonypepe]

How much do you pay. I was paying 40000 baht but the many thai girls i braught over said i was paying to much. I stayed on soi 36

[@TheThaiLife]

Really good explanation of the area. Ahhh the memories. My first few weeks in Thailand were here, actually my first few weeks traveling anywhere outside the US were here. Straight into the fire ;)

[@ProjectBangkok]

I think for most people it is as well.. was you recommended to stay there? I feel like people always stay here based on someone else recommended it to them

[@ageoflove1980]

Going to Bangkok for the first time in about a month. Thanks for the information! Very nice layed back style of presenting your content and pretty unbiassed as far as I can tell!

[@michaelprinz8178]

very interesting video and also very beautiful... thanks a lot for the picture with you.. all the best for you

[@ProjectBangkok]

Your welcome! Thanks for watching 🙏

[@haideryousaf7270]

I loved staying in Sukhumvit, so much there and such a lively part. No doubt I'll be staying around there in my next visit to Bangkok! Decent vid too!

[@ProjectBangkok]

Thanks bro! Get those tickets booked haha

[@gum6y1]

Great video, am fan of soi 11 lots of good bars to choose from and something for everyone

[@ProjectBangkok]

That soi has evolved the most over the past 6 months that’s for sure! Good to see new things open as well

[@richjxj8559]

The Landmark (5-Star) Hotel in Sukhumvit was great for my first few nights ever in Thailand. I'd never been to South East Asia, so it was the perfect first stop for me. I remember sitting in the restaurant looking out of the giant window, wondering if I would ever be brave enough to leave the premises! I was, and after 3 months of backpacking, I was happy to stay in the budget hotels around Khao San rd.

[@GandalfPassing]

great videos and great views in the background. it's good to see quality content from someone with lots of bangkok experience.

[@ProjectBangkok]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for watching

[@snarkyguy]

I literally just got back from Bangkok (I live in Shanghai) and we stayed in Sukhumvit at the Fusion Suites (location was almost bang-on @9:12). Very nice and, aside from some questionable electrical issues, was super convenient to reach the rest of the city by either bus, BTS, or the subway. Personally I love the old-school Hino buses.

[@PaulT27]

Very informative for newbies or even like me who is regular visitor there is so much to see and do … The Prices are definitely more than Pattaya and heaps of traffic… Awesome Vlog as always mate .

[@ProjectBangkok]

Thanks bud.. there were 100 other things I could have talked about to be honest but have to remember there’s a lot of viewers that have never gone. Will prob have a video called “why I left sukhumvit” soon lol

[@turkeynubs]

Awesome video that gave me an idea of what it will be like when I Stay there on my vacation. You should do multiple videos on the other parts of Bangkok/Thailand like this!

[@ProjectBangkok]

Will be doing exactly the same sort of video for the Khaosan road, old town area of Bangkok as well thats completely different 👌

[@pasqualenunnari7468]

Excellent vid- thanks for this. We're staying not far from Soy Cowboy when we get there next August.

[@ProjectBangkok]

I’m on the other side of the road from cowboy and it’s actually peaceful considering the madness around.. would be very difficult as a new comer to select the ideal location sometimes Bangkok Pat recommended booking only 2 nights for when you arrive in case you want to change and I think that’s an excellent idea 💡

[@StuWNZ]

Great video thanks very helpful.

Your welcome Rich! Thanks for the kind feedback.. I think its good to show things as they are.. perhaps a little reading between the lines here and there for people but most get the gist of things 🙂

[@NotASheep100]

Thanks for the reply ...is there any chance you could do a vid on the cannibis situation out there.... Im curious but dont want to get in trouble with the law ... If not. ..no bother....thanks

[@ProjectBangkok]

For the most part it could be detrimental to my channel so have avoided making a video.. same with talking about the redlight areas here in the city. Some of the other lads who made videos got flagged for ad sustainability so I will leave the subject for another time. For the most part you can buy it anywhere on the street here legally.. as well as endless shops to buy and smoke in.. I honestly wouldn’t worry for a second about it.. it’s just like going out to buy a beer now

[@NotASheep100]

Totally understand.... Respect your decision. Keep making those excellent videos. And thanks for explaining the situation

[@markh7304]

My favourite area I think but I haven't stayed in to many other areas of BKK yet except I stayed at Lebua State Tower the first time I came. I've stayed at the Park Plaza a few times which you can see at the beginning of the vlog. It's not the best hotel but I like the views of Benjakitti park from the lovely little rooftop pool. Go for a walk every morning around Benjakitti is a good way to start the day. Stayed at the Landmark Hotel a few times. Great area! Terminal 21 etc Insanity I watched Paul Oakenfold there once I was well pissed

[@ProjectBangkok]

Oakenfold is a legend! It’s really nice to be near the parks.. I miss that a lot now I’m in Q Chidlom. Rama 9 doesn’t have many parks either unfortunately

[@LifewithSerg]

Good points! I like living here for convenience factor to public transpiration. However, it is a little crazy. BTS has been a zoo at rush hour lately.

[@ProjectBangkok]

You can just about spot yourself in the zoo clip I put in haha 😂

[@ATIWatchReviews]

Asok/Sukhumvit is the best place in bkk. It's got literally everything, great vid. Been going for years, normally stay sukhumvit 11 which has a new row of bars since covid (and Hillary). However, its cheaper to stay Ekkamai, and Tonglor is quite good but I still prefer sukhumvit

[@ProjectBangkok]

This man knows what hes talking about.. all of the above true! Soi 11 is really picking up lately.. going to be the new walking street of Bangkok at this rate

[@shirleykimber2330]

I lived in Bangkok from 1996 to 2000 and spent some time living on Sukhumvit 11 at what is now The Mercure hotel. Not sure it has changed for the better as it seems to have joined the ranks with the likes of Nana and soi Cowboy. Back then it had its own identity and was more known for Cheap Charlie's and the infamous Ambassador Hotel long past its sell by date unfortunately!!

[@ProjectBangkok]

Has 100% changed by the sound of things then.. some higher end nightclubs now on the street and I agree that it’s looking more like Nana lately for sure

[@myb7922]

The parks have no drone signs. Can you fly if you have the NBTC and CAAT approval? Thanks

[@pejfectlife]

Exciting place, but not sure I would live there more than a few days at a time! But to each their own. We all want and need different things.

I intend to live in Thailand forever.. I could fully imagine staying here as well because of how easy it is to travel not only domestic but internationally as well. There’s an agent desk in Ashton that has info on rentals but hipflat and fazwaz will also have rentals from there too.

Yeah Ashton is the best located condo in Sukhumvit area.. can find it on Airbnb for sure.. There must be 10,000+ hotels all in the area so I couldn't recommend any to be honest as I only stay in my condo haha just have a hunt around and see what suits you.. be aware of location to BTS and MRT stations if you can, but again Ashton is the best located for that also
