For some of us, the accommodation is just as important as our itinerary. The thought of being welcomed in a new city by a warm host and a place that appeals to our sensibilities gets us just as excited.

This magical building has a bar on the ground floor and the condo on the 3rd. Sitting on the couch gazing out on to the "not so special, just the usual yet intriguing to a visitor street". The more you look at the regular people walk up and down the street go about their business, the more you will want to feel part of the inside life. This quarter has that kind of a vibe. The apartment over looks the vibrant "Soi Nana" near China town. We love that the place is a refurbished form of a 40 year old Thai shop house. The building has retained the Oriental quality. So even without a pool or the frequent gym this accommodation has something special, something irreplaceable to it.
The 2nd and 3 rd floors have some common shared amenities like the TV room, the kitchen, balcony, respectively. Book this accommodation and live the Thai life in this house that carefully preserves its 40 yr old elements and yet is renovated to suit the modern taste.
Cost : 7,211 INR per night (1 bedroom, 3 guests)
