2.2 Bangkok: Districts

Bangkok is massive. A city with a population of more than 8 million people, Bangkok has 50 districts split into 150 sub districts! This can make it quite confusing as to where to send your clients in Bangkok. Here is a summary of some of the most popular areas to stay.

Sukhumvit: Situated between the BTS Skytrain stations from Nana to Thong Lo, Sukhumvit Rd is the main street of Bangkok. Visitors in the Sukhumvit area are spoilt for choice with many accommodation, shopping, eating and nightlife options.

Banglampu district: Home of the famous Khao San Road, many people know Banglampu simply as the Khao San Road District. An area with an abundance of backpackers and hostel accommodation options, this area has a vibrant nightlife scene and an abundance of markets.

Siam District: Unquestionably the centre of shopping in Bangkok, home to some of the city's most popular shopping centres like MBK, Siam Center, and Siam Paragon.

Riverside Area: Bangkok’s riverside is beautiful and very scenic, especially after dark, with its glittering temples, shrines, and the Royal Palace. In this area, you can explore Bangkok’s historic roots. Here along the Chao Phraya river, Chinese immigrants founded the first settlements of what would become the capital of Thailand. If you are looking for top-end accommodation this is also where you find most of the 5 star hotels in Bangkok.
