4.2(65 reviews)

Sutthisan is a station on the MRT Blue Line, located along Thanon Ratchadaphisek in the Samsen Nok area of Huai Khwang district. It serves as a practical transit point for commuters and travellers moving through this part of Bangkok, connecting to the broader MRT network that spans much of the city. The station sits in a predominantly residential and commercial neighbourhood, making it a useful stop for those staying or conducting business in the Huai Khwang area. Like other MRT Blue Line stations, it is air-conditioned, staffed, and equipped with ticketing machines that support multiple languages, making navigation straightforward for first-time visitors. Trains on the MRT Blue Line run frequently throughout the day, generally from around 6am to midnight, though travellers should check current schedules on the official Bangkok Metro website before travelling. Stored-value cards are available for purchase at the station and offer a more convenient alternative to single-journey tokens for those making multiple trips.

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.
