Bangkok, the city of angels, is one of Asia's most exciting cities. It does not have a centre so much as it has districts - which can make it confusing for the first time visitor.

One excellent place to start getting to know Bangkok is the Sukhumvit Road area. This commercial, entertainment and shopping district is a quick drive on the expressway from the airport.

Well placed to serve the Sukhumvit Road area are the two City Lodge Soi 9s, located on Soi 9 and Soi 19.

Soi 9 is next to the entrance to the Nana Skytrain Station and Soi 19 is next to the Asoke Skytrain Station and the Sukhumvit Underground Station.
