is a sister company of Siam Paragon. It was opened a few years ahead of the latter. In terms of ambience, it has all the expensive qualities of Paragon but on a smaller scale, size-wise. High-end but not as crowded, it has a smallish food court on the highest floor but don’t count on it as a favorite of many because the area fights space with the home apliance section of the department store. And aside from being isolated from the cluster of malls in the Siam Square area, it doesn’t have the wide crossover appeal of Paragon.
is a must in every tourist’s itinerary. No visit to Bangkok will be complete without making at least one visit to the place. It has just about everything you need – all in one place….well not all because this is not the mall to shop for genuine (and pricey) designer brands. It has multiple levels of shopping for the budget-conscious with a spacious food court and multiplex in the upper floors. The middle ground portion regularly puts several brands and items on sale with deep discounts that can make the stingy part away with his/her shopping money on the spot.
I’ve learned time and again that advanced hotel reservations help a lot in making your vacations smoother and less stressful. And instead of making direct bookings with the hotels, I’ve long been converted to the use of online reservationists who offer the best rates. Of course, it goes without saying that this is most applicable if you have specific dates for your stay a month or two prior or at the very latest, a few days before. I’m not a big fan of just walking in a hotel and getting a room on-the-spot because chances of discounts or additional perks are very slim.
In my case, I limit trusted sites to a maximum of five (5), all of which I have utilized at least twice in the past – plus a couple of country-specific ones. These are companies which have provided me with prompt confirmations, efficient service and customer-friendly post-sales assistance should you find the need to cancel or amend your bookings. I cannot vouch for them 100% because there is no such thing as a perfect online booking group. There will always be the occasional (and inevitable) hitches along the way because of certain unavoidable scenarios. But always keep your cool. These agents have built a good track record for themselves and I’m sure they won’t intentionally ruin their reputation for a single booking or two.
when going to the U.S., Canada and some parts of Europe. They offer very low rates, especially for 4-5 star hotels. The only catch is…..you won’t know the name of the hotel until you finalize the booking. You will only be given a general description of the hotel, star rating and location. To help you in this regard, do visit the various
is quick in confirming your reservations, unless you book a stay on a particularly busy/peak period in your country of destination. They constantly surprise me with very reasonable rates in my favorite hotels around Asia. My only gripe is they tend to slow down once you cancel your booking. Yes, you will get your refund (less cancellation fees) but you need to be more patient than usual.
Outside of these five sites, I also give good commendations to two country-specific online providers which have been very efficient in handling some of my previous reservations. They are:
Tomorrow, everyone will be off to Alexandria for an exciting sightseeing tour. I can tell you now that Thia is making heads turn in the competition.
