Hi guys, need some help as it is my first time in Bangkok

I have shortlisted Bangkok Mayfair and Sathorn Vista Marriott apartments, both are under the Marriott Executive Apartments portfolio.

I am intending to get a 2BR suit (4pax) - for that room type Sathorn Vista is a bit cheaper than Mayfair (S$230 cf S$254 per night). However, from some research Sathorn Vista is in a financial district and is probably not as good a location for a short-term tourist.


Does anyone have experience staying with either of these properties (in particular opinions of staying at those locations)? My priorities are good street food and decent shopping, Thanks!

Purely for location, I would choose Bangkok Mayfair. Nearest BTS Ratchadamri, one station away from Siam. Or if u r the walking type, then u can walk past St Regis, to Grand Hyatt to Siam area.

Don't like Sathorn - traffic jam is really bad most weekdays that I would totally avoid taking that route.

Thank you both for your input The prices above are the cheapest rates that don't include breakfast.
According to Marriott's website Sathorn Vista is 100sqm for the smallest 2BR Suite, I think the 70sqm room you are referring to is the Executive Suite for 3 pax?

One more consideration is the occupancy rates of the 3BR apartments. I have Marriott Gold and I'm hoping (fingers crossed) to be pushed up into 130sqm 3BR Suite - Mayfair's manager promised me that he will upgrade me at if there are any available at time of check-in, but Sathorn Vista didn't even bother to reply -.- Guess I'll go with Mayfair then!
