Le Fenix Sukhumvit

• Sukhumvit Soi 11, about 10 minutes on foot from BTS Nana
• Rooftop bar Nest
• Standard rooms are about 24 m2

Essentials

Le Fenix Sukhumvit is a budget hotel at 33/33 Sukhumvit Soi 11, about 10 minutes on foot from BTS Nana. It is the plain, older option among the Nana and Asok hotels: a low-cost bed in a central spot, not a design stay.

Soi 11 is a nightlife lane of bars and restaurants, so expect noise in the evening and a walk to the station that passes through it. From Nana the BTS reaches the Asok interchange with the MRT in one stop.

Overview

Rooms are small and dated. A standard room is about 24 m2, and reports describe the rooms as old and in need of renovation. This is a place to sleep between days out rather than a room to spend a long day in.

It fits a short, low-cost stay for someone who wants Soi 11 on the doorstep and does not mind a compact room. For a longer stay, a larger room or a pool, the boutique and design hotels guide lists newer options nearby, including Maison and Samala.

Tip: Ask for a room on a high floor, which keeps you further from the soi at night, and allow extra time for the walk to Nana in midday heat or take a taxi for the first and last stretch with luggage.

Food and drink

Nest is the rooftop bar of the hotel. Soi 11 has bars and restaurants close to the hotel, so most meals and evening drinks are eaten on the street below rather than in the building.

Amenities

The rooftop bar is the main feature on site. The practical point is the location and the walk: about 10 minutes to BTS Nana, with Soi 11 outside the door.
