I travel through BKK a lot since I live in Chiang Mai part time. When I have to stay I always go Khao San. I love the atmosphere there.

Khao San isn’t connected by any public transport to the city, aside from the boat (which you can take to Saphan Taksin and from there the BTS) and bus (not all aircon and you get stuck in the bad traffic)

Actually, I would recommend Silom, because you can take the BTS to Saphan Taksin and take the river boat (also a cool experience) for less than a dollar to Khao San, while also being connected to the rest of the city. I think Silom area is awesome and you get a more authentic and balanced experience, rather than in Khao San you are only surrounded by backpackers.

the BTS (skytrain) and MRT (metro) are awesome and sometimes have unlimited 1day offers (you can ride as many times in a day as you want) – these bypass the awful congested traffic on the roads which could leave you stuck in a taxi for hours.

I am planning my 19-day trip to both Thailand and Vietnam. Now I am in the hostel/guesthouse looking process. I was wondering if you could recommend a good hostel in Chiang Mai?

Thanks!

Hi Rewati, I didn’t go out anywhere except Khao San road… but if you’re looking for cheap drinks and fun party people that’s where you’ll want to spend your nights!

Both were very interesting and gave me glimpse of what I’m in for :)

My friend and I are making it out to Bangkok at the end of this year. We’re two girls travelling alone and living in a hostel at Sukhumvit. It would be great if you could share the fun places to hang out at (aka getting really drunk at).

P.S: We’re not too keen on doing touristy things!

Thanks!

I’m glad it helped you! I always met so many Ohioans in Charlotte- why is that!? Lots of OSU students going down there for banking jobs I guess!

This post is very helpful and love your site. My wife and I are from Ohio and have lived in Charlotte the past five years.

very true, because more traffic means a longer more expensive cab ride!

I love that you remind the readers that they can’t walk all over Bangkok. Unlike the cities in Europe that I’ve been, Bangkok is quite big and the tourist places are located farther away from the center.

As a Bangkokian, I think it is good to do some homework and find a place to stay in advance. So, you won’t waste your travel time with the traffic congestion in Bangkok. :)

We had fun there too! I was hung over which allllmost ruined it because I wasn’t up for tying any food!

We absolutely loved this place – so local and busy. We found a lady who was selling the best Chinese dumplings in the world, did some fruit and veggie shopping and went for a boat ride. Absolutely amazing experience. Recommend it to everyone!
