3-star hotels in Silom
A shortlist of 3-star hotels in Silom, Bangkok's financial district that turns into Patpong night market after dark. It is for travellers who want a central, walkable base without Sukhumvit, whether here for work, a short break or the river piers.
Staying in Silom
Silom is the road running from Rama IV down to the Chao Phraya river, and it is functionally Bangkok's financial district: bank towers around Sala Daeng by day, the Patpong night market and its bars by night. The side sois change character fast — Soi 1 is corporate, Soi 2 and Soi 4 form a small, dense gay bar area, Soi 3 to Soi 6 is Indian and Nepalese restaurants, and the far end past Surasak BTS turns residential and Portuguese-Catholic in old Bang Rak. Convent Road is one of the few walkable pavements in the city, and Pan Road has the functioning Sri Mariamman Hindu temple.
The hotels on this list sit along and just off that strip: Silom Road itself, Soi Silom 14, 19 and 22, Mahaesak Road, Thanon Surawong and Soi Pipat 2, with several more across the river side at Charoen Nakhon. It suits business travellers and couples who want central without the Sukhumvit sleaze, solo female travellers who want safe and not-Nana, and anyone walking to the piers for the Grand Palace ferry. Families with kids and anyone chasing quiet should look elsewhere.

Baan Vajra on Soi Silom 19 and Amber Boutique Silom both list balconies, and each scores 4.6 and 4.4 from 148 and 330 reviews. Heaven Boutique Hotel has free car parking and a garage with 143 reviews. Pick Baan Vajra for the garden setting, the other two if you arrive by car.
Plan your stay
When to go
No season is set out for Silom itself, so plan around what you came for rather than the calendar: the district runs on business hours and flips after dark, with the Patpong night market and rooftop bars at night and the suits-and-iced-coffee crowd on a Tuesday morning at 8am. The paved walk from Sala Daeng to the river is 2.8 km and slopes gently down, so mornings suit it. Time a visit to Pan Road for the Sri Mariamman temple pujas, held every morning at 6.30.
