Visitor Reviews

The BTS SkyTrain has always been awesome since it first opened. Probably the safest, cleanest, easiest to use light rail in the World. Highest marks! However, my main comment here is about the incredible staff in the ticket counter at Sala Daeng station. After a delicious, spicy dinner, I was going home to Wongwein Yai area. Suddenly, the chillies in my intestine attacked! It was an emergency! I needed a toilet right away! I jumped off at Sala Daeng. I asked one young man in the ticket counter "Where is the nearest toilet?" He quickly can see I needed toilet right away and quick thinking he arranged for the station cleaning staff to open the access to toilet inside the Watson's, right there inside the station. A most embarrassing disaster was avoided! That guy is a complete HERO, in my book. Cool, calm, and decisive. I am forever grateful! BTS needs to promote this young fellow and double his salary, at least. Much Thanks!

so much memories!!! this is the stop if you’re going to silom area, get so many trains here across the years! Oh there is this killer pot brownie and pot cookie seller right under this bts stop which I REALLY like but I can’t find them on google map. They’re chillax cannabis! really loveeee their products.

Sala Daeng BTS station is located in the Silom line. Passengers travelling in the Sukhumvit line can change to silom line at the Siam station. Sala Daeng is the second stop from the Siam station. Get down at the Sala Daeng for visiting Silom and Patpong night market.

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.
