I have lived in Bangkok for 13 years in 4 different areas and of those places you mention I would choose Asoke. If your coming on a holiday especially as it has the BTS and MRT to get you almost anywhere you would want to go. However there are other places to live long term which is better like where I live. Its only 15 minutes by train from Asoke but the cost of living is way cheaper. The locals are old, friendly and have been living in the area all their life. A pint of beer will cost you 85 baht. Food is crazy cheap. Live music venues. Great bars. Renting a 45 sqm condo will cost you 10k a month. Where is it you ask? Haha. I want it to stay just the way it is.

I agree. Asok is always great for a newcomer…then it’s nicer to migrate a bit further! Followed the same path here haha

Great observations! I have lived in Bangkok since 2016, and within 6-8 stops on BTS/MRT from Asoke, there are loads of interesting & authentic areas where costs are REALLY manageable. If you like the sound of what our friend mentions, try Udom Suk, On Nut, or Phra Khanong to the east of centre - barely a 15 minute ride by BTS Sky Train. If you’re here for a 1 week/ 2 week blitz, for sure stick to the centre (Asoke / Phrom Phong / Ploenchit / Silom-Sathorn) - but for a longer, less manic, stay, head out 6-8 stops in any direction.

Good content as usual, Cal. I really like the area between Asok and Phrom Phong. With all the shopping and transportation available, it is easy to get to just about anything you need. As a techie, having Fortune Town only a couple of stops from Asok is the icing on the cake.

Been to BKK twice as a solo traveller, and stayed in Ploenchit/Chit lom area and Asok/ Sukhumvit area. Both are amazing. Asok takes the cake for me just cos its so freaking convenient! And Terminal 21 food court is crazy cheap like u mentioned! I will be making my third solo trip to BKK next week and will be staying at Asok once again! Perhaps I will check out Silom next time too!

Awesome video thanks. Both times in Bangkok I stayed in the sukhumvit area. I'll be coming back to Bangkok for a year as soon as possible and I plan on living Riverside. I figure I can get to sukhumvit easy enough for nightlife and a bar that I like and have the beauty and accessibility of Riverside. But your video has opened up my eyes to even more about Bangkok which I will be happy to explore over the next year. It's such a wonderful City. And crazy too, and I love that.

Thanks for another good video. I’ve really enjoyed staying in Saphan Taksin over the years. I like that it hasn’t changed much and location is very convenient. Trying Thong Lo at the moment and so far so good. Moving to Ekkamai later on to see what that’s like. I didn’t know much about Rama 9 so thank you for mentioning it. I’ve also read somewhere that Bang Na is an up and coming area so I might explore that too. I totally agree that access to public transport is a must in Bkk. More than 10 minutes walk from a bts station in this heat is a deal breaker lol Thanks again and all the best.

Thanks for the comment and kind words! Saphan Taksin is a great area. Really love Thonburi across the bridge as well. It’s barely changed in a decade since I first lived there… it’s probably the most relaxed and peaceful area in Bangkok. I stayed in Thonglor for a few months. Definitely a nice area but I wanted a little more mall a/c 😅 I like Rama 9 but it can get a little busy. It probably gets divided opinions from expats! Haven’t spent much time in Bangna. Shall check it out! Thanks for the input!

As he says in the video it really depends on what you're looking for. Sukumvitt those where I stayed both times in Bangkok and I love it there. The first time I stayed at the solitaire Bangkok 11. The 2nd time the Miami hotel. The Solitaire was definitely more upscale but the Miami was good value. Either way enjoy your stay it's a great place. I was also in Hua Hin and Sam Roi Yot and Jomtien Beach. All were cool for different reasons. When I come back to retire and live it will be Bangkok for the first year. I'll choose to live in the Riverside area but party and hang out in Sukumvitt.

First timer, stay close to the river cuz all main sightseeing attractions are close to the water. Returning bkk addicts: stay close to Asoke/Siam. JIMHO: Siam paragon food court is the best in the world. Pier 21 is 2nd. but Siam paragon blows pier 21 out of the water.

I know all these areas except Thonburi. I think you break it down well. As a first time tourist with some money I think I would choose Asok or the Riverside. After a few visits would shit to Thong Lor as it is still fancy but it is interesting to hang out in a less tourist-centered place. For a western backpacker, Khao San. I wouldn't recommend Rama 9. It's very very busy and traffic heavy, and generally low on charm.

It depends on the location of the places you want to visit. It always the best if you stay near the main transportation like MRT or BTS. The new locations are near the yellow and purple lines which may far from the central of Bangkok, though there are many interesting areas you can visit and less scammers. If you have a plan to travel to other provinces or other countries, the red line which connected to Donmuang airport may be another option. Most of the malls and markets open until 9 or 10 PM and some open after midnight. (Though you may find it harder to travel without the metros).

I'm very comfortable with your English diction despite some slight differences but probably acceptable between yours and the diction of some other pronunciation inputs found in American English dictionaries. Regarding closed captions, it's a plus to have Thai places spelled out and displayed correctly on the screen (I'm not sure about it, though), unlike other videos featuring incomprehensible spellings, making it hard for me to follow. Anyway, it's much better than a lot of them on the same subject, for sure. Do you set this up in advance? Or is it just by accident as randomness in closed captioning is a norm here? Engaging and dedicated video. Much appreciated. Thanks.

Thanks for the kind words. There is an auto translate function in KZbin but it always gets the Thai names incorrect so I fix them myself. Cheers!

Thanks for the kind words. For condos, there are plenty of pet friendly ones. Normally it is best to ask an agent when you are looking after you arrive in Thailand. And for the hotel, I would recommend checking Booking.com as they have a pet friendly hotel section. Here is the link: www.booking.com/pets/city/th/bangkok.html?keep_landing=1&sid=5fb115421024448d78054d7adad6741e&aid=318615;label=Low_CPA_English_EN_TH_21461894665-_*wrNf_0EmJ2E6HXFRdRXgSM640874783491:pl:ta:p1:p2:ac:ap:neg:fi:tidsa-55482331735:lp1012728:li:dem:dm:ag21461894665:cmp340122385;ws=&gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAAD_Ls1JwsKdunq0Ap3KNI_QjKK0oB&gclid=Cj0KCQjwlN6wBhCcARIsAKZvD5iblYwiUsKxEqNEsQVW3Ud6OT15blD2yKRAPDst__kTl8gb2bckKngaAuSQEALw_wcB

Hi Cal, I really appreciate the info in this video. I'm very curious about two areas specifically: Thonglor and Ekamai. I have Japanese ties an speak Japanese, and would love to live in an area where that culture is prevalent. I guess my concern would be how much more expensive it is. Is the price difference (for rent, food, etc.) significant? Which of Thonglor and Ekamai is more expensive (I'm guessing Thonglor?). I'm looking to live in Bangkok for at least six months and go from there...Thanks again!!!
@thebangkokguide
@thebangkokguide 4 ай бұрын
Thonglor is more expensive than Ekamai generally. And both are more expensive than most other areas. That being said, prices aren’t too high anywhere so it’s best to look at the area you really like and find what works for you. Traffic gets annoying if you’re far from your preferred location. Cheers!

100% agree. I have always prounced it ‘Sigh-am’. And I’m 58. But then this is the same generation that for some reason thinks ‘anyway’ has a plural called ‘anyways’. Which it hasn’t. So not sure why they add an ‘s’ to that word either. Lazy teachers not correcting people.

@@thebangkokguide I just can't make up my mind where to stay during my four nights there early September. I am in my mid 60's, fit for walking distances but the heat may be a killer. Staying near public transport is ideal but so many of the transport hubs are near the classy malls; I am more into markets than the glossy malls. I have wasted hours and hours and hours (and hours and . . . . . .) looking for the ideal spot but can't decide. I am thinking Old Town but not Khaosan Road and mostly relying on river transport. I have over three weeks in SE Asia by myself but oddly my first stop, Bangkok is giving me the most grief trying to work out my itinerary and where to stay
