5-star hotels in Silom
Five-star addresses in Silom, Bangkok's financial district that turns into Patpong night market after dark. Twelve properties, from riverfront grande dames to tower-club floors, for business travellers, couples and anyone who wants central without Sukhumvit.
Staying in Silom
Silom runs from Rama IV down to the Chao Phraya, and it is the financial district by day — bank headquarters and a wall of towers around Sala Daeng — then Patpong night market and rooftop bars at night. The sois each have their own character: Soi 2 and Soi 4 are the small, dense gay bar area, Soi 3 to Soi 6 is Indian and Nepalese restaurants, and past Surasak the road goes residential and Portuguese-Catholic. Convent Road and Pan Road, running parallel, are walkable and hold the Bangkok Christian College and the Sri Mariamman Hindu temple.
The hotels here sit along the same stretch: Surawong Road, Silom Road itself, Soi Wat Suan Plu off New Road, and Narathiwas Road in Silom Bangrak, with two further addresses out at Charoennakorn Road, Klong-Tonsai, Klongsan on the river side. It suits business travellers, couples and short-break visitors who want central and safe and walkable to the river piers for the Grand Palace ferry. Families with kids should look elsewhere — the pavements are jammed and the night market is aggressive.
