A bustling, 24/7, densely populated melting pot of people, food, shopping and entertainment, one word describes Bangkok more than any other – exciting. Where activity in other cities may wind down as the sun sets, Bangkok ramps up. Where locals in other cities eat out only occasionally, in Bangkok it's the way of life. And where others are reserved, Bangkok shines with diversity, colour and a constant sense that anything is possible. Thailand's capital offers plenty of choices - there's a match for every taste, pace and budget.

When staying in your apartment hotel or serviced apartment in Bangkok, don't miss out on the best things to do and see by day or night.
The serpentine course of the Chao Phraya River runs through the heart of Bangkok and has been the centre of daily life in the city since the 15th Century. Today, you'll find some of Bangkok's most notable sights along its banks. Jump aboard one of the 'express' boats and grab a day ticket for the Chao Phraya Tourist Boat - this is easily one of the best ways to get a sense of how extensive and densely packed Bangkok is. Some of the must-see sights along the river include the Grand Palace, the ceremonial home of Thailand's kings, Wat Phra Kaew (the Temple of the Emerald Buddha) and Wat Arun (Temple of the Dawn). Further south and about a 20-minute free shuttle boat ride from Sathorn Pier, you'll find Asiatique The Riverfront night market, a themed shopping precinct with a vast range of restaurants as well as boutique 'one-off' fashion and accessory stalls. Part of the fun is getting there from your serviced apartment - it's a chance to hop from Bangkok's BTS Skytrain onto the riverboats and back again. A real urban adventure.
In many respects, Bangkok is young in spirit and eager to embrace the best-of-the-best from around the globe while still retaining its cultural core. It's perhaps no wonder then that numerous neighbourhoods have, over the last decade, undergone somewhat of a cultural renaissance, playing host to a wealth of subcultures in arts, food and fashion. Within a short travelling distance from the serviced apartments at Fraser Suites Sukhumvit, Bangkok you'll find the Thong Lor district - a sophisticated section of the city that has, in recent years, attracted many of Thailand's budding entrepreneurs, artists and designers. The net effect is that Thong Lor now pulses with creative energy 24/7. As a byproduct, the area also draws well-heeled locals and expats alike who head out to unwind in the area's many sleek bars and restaurants. There are plenty of ways to get to Thong Lor from your serviced apartment, but we think the most fun is by catching one of Bangkok's famed canal ferries from Nana Chard Pier and heading east along the canal to Thong Lor Boat Station.
Eating out in Bangkok is a way of life, and there’s perhaps no better place to dine on authentic Thai cuisine (and hunt for a bargain or two) than at one of the city's many night markets. Most of these night markets are huge, with terrific atmospheres - everywhere you turn, the enticing smells of hundreds of street food stalls assail the senses. One of the best is located in Bangkok's Chinatown along Yaowarat Rd, a straight run on the metro from your apartment hotel at Modena By Fraser Bangkok to the MRT Wat Mangkon station. With its neon-lit cacophony of street signs and constant streetside hustle, the area is one of the most fascinating nighttime haunts in Bangkok, and the market is almost entirely given over to good, glorious food. One of the best venues to check out is Guay Jub Ouan Pochana, which serves up Guay Jub - a soup of rice noodles in a peppery pork broth.
In a city as densely packed as Bangkok, the relentlessness of urban life can sometimes get a bit much. Bangkokians seeking a break from the bustle of daily life often head to Lumpini Park, located close to the serviced apartments in central Bangkok. The park serves as a place to unwind, workout and take a breather. The 500,000 square metre area includes numerous water areas - where you can hire paddle boats on - as well as the Bangkok Public Library, a waterfall garden and a Chinese Pavilion. It's a great place to go for a morning run or walk, and you'll see plenty of locals doing the same. From Modena By Fraser Bangkok, you can easily catch the metro to Lumpini. From Fraser Suites Sukhumvit, Bangkok you can even walk the distance if you're feeling like stretching your legs, or catch a bus down Witthayu Rd from Ploenchit.
Muay Thai - the Thai martial art that's gained international recognition through global fight competitions is even more popular in Thailand today than it ever was historically. Beyond the obvious martial applications, Muay Thai is also a fantastic way to keep fit, and the opportunity to watch the professionals in action is not to be missed. The best place to catch all the heart-stopping action of a traditional Muay Thai match close to the serviced apartments in Bangkok is at the Rajadamnern Boxing Stadium, Bangkok's oldest Muay Thai venue and one of its very best. Generally, fights take place on Mondays, Wednesdays and Sundays in the evenings. Alternatively, you may want to learn this ancient and venerable art for yourself. Bangkok boasts a wealth of Muay Thai gyms offering lessons for people of varying ages and abilities. A single lesson may cost anywhere between THB 300 – THB 500. One of the best gyms for beginners is RSM Academy, a gym combining Muay Thai for fitness classes with excellent beginner tuition in stretching, protocol and essential techniques. RSM is located along Sukhumvit Rd, within easy travel distance of Fraser’s apartment hotels.
Bangkok has two airports - Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK) and Don Mueang Airport (DMK). Suvarnabhumi welcomes most long-haul flights from around the world, whereas Don Mueang welcomes most flights from within Thailand itself. The easiest way to arrive at your serviced apartment or apartment hotel from Suvarnabhumi is to take the Airport Rail Link into Bangkok and alight at Phaya Thai station to change over to the Sukhumvit BTS line. Alternatively, there are plenty of private taxis available to take visitors into the city for around THB 400 one-way.
