What are the best areas to stay in Bangkok and how can I extend my visa?

We stayed almost 2 month around Lumpini area. Walkable to big shopping malls and there are metro and bts stations.

With kids we loved:

- Children discovery museum followed by the JJ/Chatachuk market as they are opposite to each other.

- The Ancient city/Muang boran is awesome. We were there before covid, dont know how is it now. You can rent bicycles or golf cart.

- The Net playground at LaSalle avenue mall in Bagna. It bit further away but very worth it if you can visit perhaps the Bangna mall where they have kids cinema with playground inside the movie saloon. 👍😊

- My daughters and my favorite, Yunomori Onsen and Spa in Sathorn. You can almost spend the whole day there walking around in “kimono” between the Onsen, the relaxing room and the Japanese restaurant. 🙏

Coming in visa exempt, you go to IT Square Laksi immigration to extend your visa in Bangkok.

Stay wherever you like avoid tourist places

@Don ********

full of brasses and nigerian pimps I would never take my kids to nana 🤣🤣🤣

Asiatique not far from you and has nice places to eat on the river, shopping area, big wheel and rides for the kids….

Asiatique The Riverfront

092 246 0812

Siam square has a nice bowling ally and a cinema complex

We are staying on the riverfront at the Sheraton. We stayed 2 weeks at the Hilton Millenium in May. If you take the river boats up and down the river you can get to temples, AsiaTech, and the BTS line. There is life in the area just past Saphan Taksin. The streets have night markets, food stalls etc. For more, you need to get on the BTS line and go into the city, but use the river boats to visit the many places that are river accessible.

Riverside isn't great for tourists in my opinion - far better to relocate to Sukhumvit where you can walk to pretty much everything you would want. Find a hotel / apartment within a 5 minute walk of Phrom Pong / Asok / Nana BTS and you will be spoiled for choice
