Sivalai Secrets?

I stayed at Sivalai Place last month, stunning hotel, seriously. The rooftop pool was amazing, but I kinda felt like I missed something. The staff were all super friendly, almost too friendly I stayed at Sivalai Place last month, stunning hotel, seriously. The rooftop pool was amazing, but I kinda felt like I missed something.

Yeah, Sivalai Place is gorgeous. That rooftop pool is insane. The "too friendly" staff thing... I've noticed that in a few places in @Bangkok. It's a cultural thing, more than anything. They're just incredibly hospitable. Maybe you missed some of the smaller street food stalls around the hotel, some amazing eats tucked away in sois (side streets). Also, check out the Wat Arun, it's a short taxi ride and absolutely breathtaking. Totally worth it.

Totally agree about the rooftop pool! It was unreal. And you're right, the staff were super friendly, almost to the point of being overwhelming at times, haha. I didn't explore many of the smaller sois, I was so focused on the hotel amenities, I kind of missed out on that. Thanks for the Wat Arun tip! I'll definitely check it out next time I'm in @Bangkok. Any other recommendations for next time? Maybe some less touristy spots?

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
