Location

“Phra Khanong,” in the old days, was a favourite location among Thai people. Most teenagers chose Phra Khanong as their dating place, as there was a famous Theater where everyone went to watch the film there. In addition, Phra Khanong is renowned to be the place of Beauty schools, which attracted a lot of students whom interested in the studies of hair-cut, make-up and tailoring. Likewise, it was the place where Thai people came to buy sewing machines and all the materials needed for embroidery.

As time passed, the arrival of BTS Skytrain sparked the transformations. Old commercial buildings were gradually demolished and replaced with condominiums, hotels and community malls to accommodate the new trend of living. Subsequently, Phra Khanong gained a greater number of population, which is still growing; and the sprawling prosperity from Ekkamai and Thonglor seems to reach Phra Khanong more and more through time.

The Room Sukhumvit 69 is situated on Sukhumvit Road, 100 m. away from BTS Phra Khanong. The traffic on Sukhumvit is usually dense, especially during the weekends. You may opt to take Rama IV Road which will soothe the traffic condition.
