  • Local bus, the slowest but cheapest option
  • BTS Skytrain, (The Bangkok Mass Transit System) Not always available from your accommodation or area.

Benviar Tonson Residence, Marriott Executive Apartments, and Centre Point Chidlom all offer a 3-bedroom apartment for around $500 AUD per night, which would be awesome for a short stay.
