Travel: Thailand - Bangkok

[Wonderdad]

Friends are there now. They seems to be enjoying their trip there now looking at their FB posts. Dont think there will be any major disruptions, like previous times when they have riots and what not.


For own safety, do register with MFA if you are going there. In case there’s any assistance required from Embassy. Touchwood

Planing a family trip to Bangkok in January.

The tickets so cheap with airasia and scoot giving discounts like every other day... too tempting.

Wifey wanna stay somewhere close to Platinum Fashion Mall so she can shop the whole day (trip). And I chanced upon this AirBnB listing .... Apartment at Platinum Fashion Mall itself ! ..and of course wifey go crazy.

She has quite a few apartments available in the condo itself.
The reviews for the host are quite good and seems like a few singaporeans stayed there.

Thinking of this or Novotel...
Price for stay is relatively cheaper than staying at Novotel Platinum Hotel and we get to have a larger apartment as compared to a room.

Anyone stayed there before?
Good deal?

My wifey goes crazy just with 1 shopping mall.


The Platinum Fashion Mall which sells women clothings at ridiculous wholesale price. It's almost like a regular place to visit every few months.

She can bagged 1 full luggage within a day.
Usually have to buy extra luggage excess. :spank:

Going for a family trip to Bangkok.

Wifey wants to stay near to Platinum Fashion Wholesale Mall.

Considering this AirBnB apartment which is within the Shopping Mall itself:

https://www.airbnb.com.sg/rooms/769901

It's so much cheaper than staying in Novotel Platinum which is also in the same building.

Saw the reviews for the host quite good and there're quite a handful of singaporeans / malaysians who stayed there. Anyone with experience with AirBnB or this host before?

Hi all,


Please advise!

Is it a good idea to make curtains in Bangkok and where to tailor it?

Regards

[Wonderdad]

Never heard of it…

Do people usually go there to do curtains?

Think most people would go johor since the curtain makers can cross over to SG to take measurements in our house and can deliver to your house once done.

[Wonderdad]

That’s valid, considering that you need to check-in the curtains on your flight back from bangkok, the cost for excess baggage might not worth the effort.
