Visitor Reviews

Phloen Chit BTS skytrain station is on the Sukhumvit line in Pathum Wan district, Bangkok, Thailand. The station is located on Phloen Chit road at Phloen Chit intersection to Wireless road next to the beginning of Sukhumvit road. It is surrounded by hotels, skyscrapers, office towers and many Embassies especially the British and the American on Wireless road. It is connected by skywalk to Central Embassy, one of the most luxurious shopping malls in Thailand. (11 October 2023)

It's honestly like any other BTS station that you'll come across, as we move above-ground from place to place. This station, like many others as well, is clean, inter-connected to key neighboring buildings, and does the job of being convenient. It also happens to be the BTS station that's the closest to the Google Thailand office.

Super convenient and easily accessible. Although there were too much stairs, the whole station is still a blessing for everyone who lived near the station. Really close to chit lom and Siam. This station also has a machine that accepts bills, unlike other stations where the machines only accept coins or QR code.

Tips for Visiting Transportation

Take the Sleeper Train at Least Once

The Bangkok-to-Chiang Mai overnight train in a second-class sleeper berth is a bucket-list experience. Book at least a week ahead via 12Go.asia or at Hua Lamphong station. Upper berths are cheaper and have more headroom; lower berths have a window.

Use Grab Everywhere

Grab is the Uber of Southeast Asia and works across Thailand for cars, motorbike taxis, and even tuk-tuks in some cities. It eliminates haggling and provides fare estimates upfront. Load a Thai SIM or use eSIM to stay connected.

Rent Scooters Carefully

Always photograph the scooter's existing damage before riding off, and keep your passport — give a photocopy instead (some shops insist on the original; avoid these). Wear a helmet; police fine 500 THB for no helmet and accidents without one void insurance.
