Parcel Hotel Bangkok

The rooms at Parcel Hotel Bangkok measure between 25 m² and 50 m², and all of them have air conditioning to counter the heat of the city. Rooms include standard rooms and a 50 m² suite.

The Family Suite sleeps up to seven guests, so larger groups can stay together. Every room has a private bathroom with a shower, so guests do not share bathroom facilities.

The hotel has a 24-hour front desk and 24-hour security, and guests can use luggage storage and safety deposit boxes. Express check-in and check-out is also offered.

Rooms can have a desk, a closet, an in-room safe box, a seating area and a separate dining area, and linens are provided. Daily housekeeping is part of the service, and a family room is available for larger parties.

Free Wi-Fi is available in all rooms, with internet services as well, and the TV has satellite or cable channels and a streaming service. A smoking area is provided, and the hotel also has non-smoking rooms. Internet services are offered alongside that Wi-Fi, giving guests a second way to get online.

Parcel Hotel Bangkok stands on Ramkhamhaeng Road in Hua Mak, in eastern Bangkok, an area of university campuses and neighbourhood markets rather than the old temple quarter. It is a practical base for travellers who want to stay close to everyday city life while keeping the main sights a taxi or train ride away, and the location suits guests who want time in the city's neighbourhoods as well as its main attractions.

The Mall 3 Pier, 350 m away, is a boat stop that gives a second route into the centre, and Seri Market is a neighbourhood market for everyday shopping. The Airport Rail Link Ramkhamhaeng Station, 1.5 km away, runs on the line to Suvarnabhumi Airport, 16.6 km from the hotel, so the airport is the first connection to plan for on arrival.

A full day could start at the Chatuchak Weekend Market, 8.5 km away and best visited at weekends, and continue to the Jim Thompson House, the former home of the American silk entrepreneur Jim Thompson. From there, the Grand Palace, 12.9 km away, is a natural stop before Wat Arun on the Chao Phraya riverfront. Both sights make a full day out, so leave time for the journey across the city.
