Pratunam Casa, Bangkok, Thailand

Pratunam Casa
Address: 122/59 Ratchaprarop Rd, Khwaeng Thanon Phaya Thai, Khet Ratchathewi, Krung Thep Maha Nakhon 10400, Thailand


Stayed at Pratunam Casa for a total for 4 nights. I booked the Suite room in Agoda and it was around RM128.00 per night per room. The hotel is exactly same as the pictures in the Agoda. It's a very recommended place to stay as you can just wake up as early as 5.30am or 6am and get ready to shop at Pratunam Morning Market as it is just 2 minutes away. After the morning shopping, you can have street foods for breakfast or opt to 7 Eleven to hunt for packed foods. Then, go back to hotel to freshen up and prepare for another shopping spree at 10am! It's very easy to get a taxi at the main street so you can forget about Uber or Grab there.




Positive points
  1. high in rating/good reviews in Agoda (8.7 - Excellent)
  2. good location (nearby street foods, Pratunam Morning Market (wholesale), massage place, 7 Eleven, Family Mart)
  3. affordable
  4. spacious (great for shopaholics)
  5. complimentary foods given in lobby
  6. individual air cond (can adjust temperature freely)
  7. separate bidet & bathroom
  8. fridge & microwave (which we never utilized) provided in room
  9. weighing scale in lobby to use
  10. basic amenities provided (shower gel, hair shampoo, drinking water, umbrella, shower cap etc)
  11. only 4-5 rooms in the guesthouse(one room per floor) (we are given room 301, 2nd floor of the building)
  12. super helpful and friendly staff (thumb up for both lady staff and also the guy staff. He helped me to drag the luggage to main street, waited for me to secure a taxi and move everything to the taxi. Very touched and sweet of him)
  13. complimentary cold drinking water upon arrival & check in
A thank you card =)

Weak points
  1. no lift (bad thing when you need to carry luggage upon arrival and departure, but the staff there will help you with your luggage)
  2. no door for bathroom but merely curtain (not good when you poo and bath cause can smell and see through from room)
  3. located in small alley, not accessible by cars (need walk few steps & drag luggage to main street)
  4. no disposable dental kit provided
  5. quite hidden and some taxi driver find this hotel a bit hard to locate (just bring around the name card given by the staff of Pratunam Casa for ease of locating and contact)
  6. 10 mins walk to BTS Phayai Thai, 15 mins to Platinum Fashion Mall & Central World/Siam Big C (a bit far)
