About Chong Nonsi BTS Station
This is the Silom Line stop you want for Mahanakhon Tower, which sits right in front of the station, and for the wall of offices around Sathorn and Silom. That's the whole appeal in one line. It's a working commuter station in the middle of Bangkok's business district, not a destination, but the covered skywalk running off it has become a genuine photo spot for locals, and it's turned up in music videos.
Time your trip and it's painless. Weekday mornings from about 7.30 to 9.30 and evenings from 5.00 to 7.30 bring lines on the platforms and concourse, though the operators run trains back to back through the crush, so waits stay short. Outside those windows it moves quickly. There are small shops on site for food, juice and snacks, plus nail and skin services if you've somehow got time to kill, and storage lockers if you're between hotels.

Chong Nonsi station is just in front of Mahanakhon Tower, a famous tourist attraction here in Bangkok, there are many office buildings in this area, so this station can be crowded during rush hours. There are also many cafes and restaurants that you can try around this area. This station is clean and they have storage lockers in this station.
This is a very short commute—only two stations—that I make almost every workday to the office. It can get crowded, but during peak hours, there are usually two trains: one arrives, and a second one follows within two minutes. Therefore, it's not a major inconvenience. The trip takes less than five minutes. It's convenient, safe, and I highly recommend using the service.
