Essentials

Grande Centre Point Sukhumvit 55 is an upscale, serviced-apartment-style hotel at 300 Sukhumvit Soi 55 in Thong Lo, with about 442 rooms. The nearest station is Thong Lo on the BTS Sukhumvit line, a 13 to 15 minute walk away.

That walk is the main thing to weigh. In hot or wet weather it is a long way to repeat daily, so the hotel suits guests who stay in for much of the day or take taxis, rather than anyone commuting by BTS. Suvarnabhumi Airport is 26.5 km away.

Overview

The rooms follow a serviced-apartment pattern: a kitchen and living area come as standard. The range runs from Superior Studio through Executive Suite and Grande Corner Suite to a Two Bedroom Family Suite. Some rooms carry onsen access, a draw after a day on your feet. One Signature Connecting room is about 80 m2 and sleeps six.

With about 442 rooms this is a large building, not a small-hotel stay. It is built for weeks rather than nights: more room and a kitchen in return for the longer walk. Compared with the other Centre Point hotels, it is the one set up for long stays, as laid out in Centre Point hotels in Bangkok compared. For other kitchen-equipped options, see serviced apartments for long stays.

Tip: Ask for a room on a lower floor or near the lifts if the long walk to the BTS already tires you, and book a taxi for the first arrival with luggage.

Food and drink

A kitchen in the room makes self-catering possible for a long stay, and Thong Lo’s cafes and restaurants lie toward the BTS station. Plan your eating around the same 13 to 15 minute walk, or a short taxi ride.

Amenities

Onsen access comes with some suites. Check which room types include it when you book, as it is not available in every category.

The Two Bedroom Family Suite and the six-guest connecting room give families and groups space to share, and the kitchen and living area suit stays of a week or more.
