Ban Ing Suan

The garden-view rooms at Ban Ing Suan have air conditioning, a flat-screen TV, an electric kettle and a hair dryer, and the private bathroom comes with a bathtub, a walk-in shower, towels and toiletries.

The room types include family suites, a double room with two single beds, a family room and a bungalow, as well as rooms that sleep up to three guests, which suits a small group or a family travelling together. Bed set-ups vary by room, from one double bed to two single beds. Guests travelling with children can choose between the family suites and the family room, both with a double bed.

The guesthouse has a garden and a terrace, and daily housekeeping, laundry, ironing and dry cleaning services are available, along with luggage storage. Private check-in and check-out is offered.

Guests can use a coffee shop and a shared kitchen, and the property has non-smoking rooms. Free Wi-Fi is available in all rooms, pets are allowed, and English and Thai are spoken. A business centre offers xerox and fax services. Guests can also relax on the terrace or in the garden.

Ban Ing Suan stands in Bangchalong, a neighbourhood of Bang Phli district in Samut Prakan province, on the outer edge of the Bangkok metropolitan area. The streets around the guesthouse are residential and quieter than central Bangkok, with village houses, temples and open land nearby. Suvarnabhumi Airport is 8.8 km away, so the area is convenient for travellers catching early flights. The Central Park Hospital is nearby for any medical needs, and Don Mueang International Airport lies further north on the other side of the city.

Nearby is Wat Bang Chalong Nok, a pagoda 1.4 km away, and the Tipgaysorn market at 3.3 km. Suan Suk Jai, a park 5.4 km away, offers green space for a walk and is a quiet place to spend a morning.

Central Bangkok sights such as the Grand Palace and Wat Arun are further away, and the nearest train station is 9.1 km off, so plan on a taxi or private car for longer trips. A good day plan is a morning at Wat Bang Chalong Nok and the Tipgaysorn market, followed by a walk through Suan Suk Jai park. Walks around the pagoda are easy to combine with a visit to the market.
