Where To Stay in Silom
Editor's Guide to Hotel Locations in Silom
Stretching from Charoen Khrung Road in the West, to Rama IV Road (by Lumpini Park) in the East, the Silom area extends as far as the parallel Suriwong Road and Sathorn Road. Part of the city's main business and financial district it's short on traditional tourist attractions. Canceling out the sterility of the abundant head offices and tower blocks however, is the combined appeal of the famous Patpong, Silom Road's energy and enterprise, some great bars and restaurants, and its central location - in fact, its one of the city's most liveliest and popular areas in town.
Depending on where you stay along its 4.5km length, Silom places you roughly halfway between the riverside and main shopping areas like Siam Square. The standard of accommodation overwhelmingly ranges between mid-range and five-star luxury, and prices reflect this. Loosely served by three Skytrain (BTS) stations - Surasak, Chong Nonsi and Sala Daeng - its best broken up by these.

Sala Daeng
A stay in this area gives you the access to the main shopping and entertainment segment of the Silom area - one of the liveliest, bustling and most interesting areas in the city, including Patpong. Office workers by day become bargain and thrill seekers by night, the straight stretch coming alive with shops and stalls selling all manner of merchandise, great restaurants, bars, Thai massage parlours, crowded clubs and notorious sex shows.
Rising above the scene is the skytrain, which, via handy raised walkway, connects to the subway station at the end of Silom road. Just beyond it is Lumpini Park - the perfect daytime escape from the noise and pollution.

Chong Nonsi
Busy but not altogether bustling, the area of Silom near BTS Chong Nonsi - roughly in its middle - is populated by huge office tower blocks and corporate offices, and people scurrying about in suits. Lots of shops of marginal interest and decent restaurants strewn along this stretch - including seafood, Italian and, of course, Thai - as well as further afield, on nearby Sathorn and Narathiwat roads. A stay here puts you roughly midway between the riverside, in one direction, and Patpong's chaotic entertainment and shopping in the other. Both are in walking distance, but perhaps best reached via tuk-tuk or taxi.
