LiT BANGKOK Residence

LiT BANGKOK Residence offers serviced apartments with studios, one-bedroom and two-bedroom suites and a three-bedroom duplex, with city or pool views in several of them. Rooms can have air conditioning, an in-room safe box, blackout curtains, a refrigerator and a microwave, and some have a balcony or terrace.

Bedding varies by suite: some offer a choice of single or double beds, and the three-bedroom duplex has four single beds, a king bed and a sofa bed. Several suites have a bathtub, and some include a kitchen. Interconnecting rooms are also available, and bathrooms can have a shower, hair dryer, towels, toiletries and slippers.

The property has an outdoor swimming pool, a fitness centre, a spa with sauna and a garden. Daily housekeeping, laundry, dry cleaning and ironing are offered, and the front desk is open 24 hours. There is also an elevator in the building.

For work, there are business facilities, meeting and banquet facilities, and Xerox and fax in the business centre. Luggage storage and safety deposit boxes are also available, and the property is wheelchair accessible.

A bar, room service and food delivery sit alongside the on-site restaurants and the breakfast takeaway service. An airport transfer and taxi service are offered, and free WiFi is available in all rooms, with free parking as well.

LiT BANGKOK Residence stands on Soi Kasemsan 1, off Rama I Road in the Siam district of Pathumwan, one of central Bangkok's busiest areas for shopping and transport. The streets around the building are lined with malls, museums and galleries, and the BTS skytrain runs close by, so getting around the central districts is straightforward. The streets fill with traffic at rush hour, and the district is busy well into the evening.

The National Stadium BTS station is 100 m away. On foot you can reach the Jim Thompson House, a traditional Thai house museum, the Bangkok Art & Culture Centre (BACC) and Siam Paragon, a large upmarket shopping mall. Further afield, the Grand Palace is 4.1 km away and Wat Phra Chetuphon, home of a giant reclining Buddha, is 4 km away. Chatuchak Weekend Market is 6.1 km away.

A good first day combines the Jim Thompson House with shopping at MBK Center and Siam Paragon, all within a few hundred metres of the building, so the whole area can be explored on foot in one afternoon. The Grand Palace and Wat Phra Chetuphon are best visited together on a separate day, while the Chatuchak Weekend Market is a longer trip, and the market itself runs at weekends.
