Pullman Bangkok Hotel G – Local Transport
- Walking: The hotel is located on the busy Silom road, with an excellent choice of hotels, restaurants, bars, cafés, and shops within walking distance.
- Metro and Bus: The hotel is walking distance from the Chong Nonsi (600m) and Sala Daeng (800m) BTS Skytrain stations, as well as the Silom MRT (underground) station (1 km). There are bus stops right next to and opposite the hotel. It’s easy to take a bus in Bangkok if you know the route and stop, but the conductors and drivers don’t speak English.
- Taxis: Metered taxis are available in plenty, and the hotel staff will easily get you one. Tuk tuks also dot the street right outside the hotel, but they do not have meters, so bargain hard. Motorcycle taxis are available at every corner, but again, one needs to bargain hard. Otherwise, one can avail the app-based Grab and Pun Pun Bicycle Share easily.
