Sheraton Grande Sukhumvit – Local Transport

Walking: The hotel is located in the city’s prime shopping area. Terminal 21 mall is across the street and connected via a skywalk through Asok BTS station, while several mega malls along Phloen Chit and Sukhumvit roads are easily accessible via the BTS sky train.
Metro and Bus: The nearest BTS (sky train) station, Asok is connected to the hotel via a skywalk, while Sukhumvit MRT station is 500m north. There are bus stops on both sides of the hotel along the main road. 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 call one; or use the Grab taxi app. 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, bargain hard.
