Alternatives to On Nut & Ladprao?
Preferences;
- Rent upto 12k (Condo w/ pool)
- Big C/Lot… I've spent a few months in both On Nut and Ladprao and wondering if there are other places worth trying before committing to a longer lease.
Preferences;
- Rent upto 12k (Condo w/ pool)
- Big C/Lotus/Local fresh & night market within walking distance (I buy fruit/veg/snacks/thai meals everyday and like variety, western food not important)
- Nightlife options within reasonable distance (a few stops on the MRT/BTS is fine as I don't head out often)
Currently leaning towards On Nut as it meets the above and feels a bit more lively than Ladprao which I like. At the same time I'm open to somewhere that has a more Thai/less international feel if it exists.
Places I've looked into but ruled out; Punnawithi/Udom Suk, Huai Khwang, Ari
Have also spent some time in Chiang Mai & Jomtien/Pattaya and open to other options in Thailand but think I prefer to base myself in Bangkok and take trips out of the city when I feel the need. 32m if it matters.
So are there other places in (or outside of) Bangkok that you'd recommend?
I've seen Thon Buri and Pinklao come up a few times but haven't been there myself - any insights on these?
Thanks!
You might want to take a look at Bang Kapi or the area around Ramkhamhaeng. It's less international than On Nut but still has a Big C, a decent night market near The Mall Bang Kapi, and the orange songthaews run along the main road if you don't want to walk. You'd be relying on the ARL for the BTS connection, but the rent goes further and the local feel is definitely there.
honestly just go back to On Nut. you want BTS, a pool, walking distance to markets and nightlife for 12k and you already ruled out half of bangkok for reasons. Thon Buri is a pain without a car and Pinklao is just Ladprao with
best som tam in Bangkok? Krua Dok Mai Kao 2026
yeah Krua Dok Mai Kao is solid but if you're up for a detour, try Som Tum Nua near Siam Square. their som tam pu pla ra is insane if you like the fermented fish sauce kick. way more pungent than the On Nut spot, just less grilled chicken options
