Location
Where is the best place to experience precious moments with friends on Friday night? The majority of answers would agree to advise Thonglor and Ekkamai, the sleepless downtown of Bangkok where the best restaurants, pubs and bars are nestled in this high-end enclave.
Ekkamai at day and night are like two sides of the same coin; office people rush to premium offices in the morning, and the night turns out to be another sphere with full spectrum of vibrant entertainments.
The connectivity in transportation is the key element which has uplifted Ekkamai to be as prospered as you see nowadays. Ekkamai in the old days used to be a major Bus Terminal, where people gathered here to travel to the eastern part of Thailand. As time passed, the Bus Terminal was relocated and replaced with the arrival of BTS Skytrain. Ekkamai Road (Sukhumvit 63) also has several linkages to important roads such as Sukhumvit, Petchaburi, Rama IX, and Rama IV Road; not to mention countless shortcuts and small alleys along Ekkamai Road that are filled with impressive restaurants, pubs and bars.
In terms of price, the most inexpensive condominium you could find here is priced around 140,000 baht per square metre. Meanwhile, the land price here is appraised at 300,000 baht per square wah, and normally surge by 20% when there is a development established in that specific territory.
Getting There
Rhythm Ekkamai is set to lcoate on Ekkamai Road, around the corner near Thana Arcade Alley’s entrance. The project will be 280 metres away from BTS Ekkamai approximately. In addition, the traffic on Ekkamai Road is usually cramped, especially at night where nighters come to lifestyle places here. 280 metres is fair walking distance where your journey does not require a sweat from you.
Ekkamai BTS Station
Descend from the skytrain at Ekkamai Station and take Exit 1. Walk on the footpath towards Ekkamai Road (Sukkhumvit 63), and turn left into the passage. Keep walking until you find Thana Arcade Alley on the left, the project will be located right at the corner of that alley, next to the community mall Park Lane.

Lifestyle Amenities
There aren’t any better place in Bangkok for night-time hangouts like Ekkamai and Thonglor. Around Ekkamai 5 or Thonglor 10 Alley is a hub of famous pubs and bar such as Demo, Muse, Nunglen and DND Club. As well as a high-end one BEAM, which has distinctive kind of music beats. But if you look for a more formal place to discuss about business deals, Mellow Restaurant & Bar is a great place with classy foods and stylish vibes.
For beer lovers, there are HOBS, a renowned bar where new-gen folks love to drink and talk with friends. But if you prefer something more unique and original, Mikkeler Bangkok is another option where you could find 30 taps of finest beers from places around the world.
But if you love sushi, our recommended one is Hagakure that is situated in Ekkamai 6 Alley. Each menu is meticulously designed with premium ingredients in the hands of Japanese master chef. There is one renowned street food among Thais, Lung Cheay Egg Noodle, situated near Ekkamai 19 Alley; the taste of noodle with hot soup help freshen up the dizzy head after the heavy alcohol consumptions. Nevertheless, the queue could be long at some nights, depending on the number of nighters in this downtown.
