Where should I look online for affordable monthly accommodation in Bangkok?

Hi, I'm staying at an apartment in Sena Nikhom (Chatuchak district) I found on AirBnB that basically cost me £600 / $760 USD for 1 month. Has a small gym, swimming pool, co-working space, tiny kitchen… Hi, I'm staying at an apartment in Sena Nikhom (Chatuchak district) I found on AirBnB that basically cost me £600 / $760 USD for 1 month. Has a small gym, swimming pool, co-working space, tiny kitchen etc.

I'd like to bring that cost down for my second month. Closer to £450 with ideally the same amneities (in fact I'd prefer a bigger kitchen to do my own cooking and save money).

I do this apartment's 1 minute walk to a BTS station Sukhumvit Line. But I'm happy with a slightly further walk to a station - and nearer the end of the line - if that helps bring the apartment price down.

Can anyone recommend where I should be looking online, or is AirBnB my best option?

For that price range, skip Airbnb and check Hipflat or DDproperty. They list directly from landlords and agents, no platform markup. If you push closer to the end of the Sukhumvit Line like Bearing or Samrong, 450 pounds will get you a full condo with a proper kitchen and pool, not a studio. The walk to the BTS might be 5-10 minutes instead of 1, but you'll save a lot. Facebook groups like "Bangkok Rentals" also have agents posting deals, just message them directly.

honestly just search "Bangkok condo for rent monthly" on google maps, you'll see listings pop up with prices. some buildings have their own rental offices too, cheaper than airbnb by a lot

yeah check out renthub or hipflat, they got filters for budget and location. facebook marketplace is pretty good too for direct owner deals.

Krua Dok Mai Kao is solid but I've always found their som tam a bit tame on the pla ra. If you want the real funky version, try the shophouse spots along Soi Udomsuk 26, near the night market end. They pound it fresh with fermented fish that'll clear your sinuses, and it's like 60 baht. Different style from the On Nut places, more Lao-leaning.

for som tam specifically i'd say the Isaan spots in Chatuchak are underrated, weekdays only though since the weekend crowd ruins the vibe. there's a stall near gate 2 that does tam pa with fermented bamboo shoots, super sour and funky, not something you see much in On Nut. if you're already heading north for Or Tor Kor anyway its worth the detour.

honestly the som tam at Krua Dok Mai Kao is good but what got me hooked is their nam prik pla raa dip with the raw veggies, that funk hits way harder than the papaya does. think most people sleep on it cuz they just order the som tam and gai yang. also pro tip, go before noon on weekdays, after that teh pla ra gets milder cuz they batch it for the lunch rush
