Serviced Apartment Reviews

As cliché as it sounds, serviced apartments are the ideal home-away-from-home. They combine the best of what you left behind - namely large comfortable spaces and facilities like kitchens - with hotel conveniences like restaurants, room service and fitness facilities. Though built with the long-stay traveller in mind, tourists of all stripes enjoy their ease-of-use. Thanks to the growing popularity of serviced apartments in Bangkok, they are fast growing in numbers too and are priced competitively. These reviews offer useful tips to help you choose.

Imagine staying in the heart of the city's thriving Central Business District where everything you need is within comfortable reach, and at the same time still be able to revel in a rare glimpse of green. As impossible as it may sound, all that can be experienced at Somerset Lake Point Bangkok, a four-star serviced apartment that brilliantly combines the conveniences of city living, excellent service and the serenity of nature under one roof.

Siri Sathorn is everything a serviced residence should be: convenient and comfortable with just a touch of class. From the suites to the caf- to the gym, the execution is flawless - nearly too good to be true. Thankfully, for long-stay business travellers and casual holidaymakers alike, it is true. As a home-away-from-home - for one night or a hundred - it's perfect.

If you appreciate the twinkling lights of the city, yet still like to see a glimmer of green, you may just have found what you're looking for. Placed in the heart of Sathorn, and close enough to Silom, Somerset Park Suanplu Serviced Residences is shaded from the vibrant streets by a tree-lined stretch of lawn and landscaped garden.

Unlike other executive apartments, the cream-coloured exterior of Mayfair Bangkok Marriott Executive Apartments doesn't flaunt its five-star lavishness. A green French-inspired rooftop with a round sky window does make it stand out from Langsuan's populous high-rise buildings though. Don't be fooled by the inconspicuous fa-ade...

Rising pristine from the calm green lane of Soi Tonson, Somerset Suwan Park View is stately without being grandiose. Shielded from the city chaos, nightlife and noise, the tree-lined area is home to many embassies. The location balances privacy with easy city access - Chidlom Skytrain (BTS) station is a mere 100 metres away...

With so many choices of accommodation all over the city, it often becomes a real burden to select the perfect place to stay. Seasoned visitors tend to have their preferences but, especially for a first-time visitor, it can be quite a daunting task. One of the first factors that come into play when choosing where to stay is, of course, location.
