  • Phra Ram 9 is an area of Bangkok, very close to the centre of the city. While it’s perhaps not pretty or traditionally Thai, living in Rama 9 has loads of great advantages and ill cover all about it in todays video!

    I was there for a few days about a month ago. Absolutely loved it! Stayed in the one9five building (through Airbnb). It was sparkling new and fresh. Not the best view from the pool but the gym and garden areas were top-notch! I can tell you're aiming for Ashton Asoke Rama 9. Looks absolutely amazing! Probably my favorite building(s) in the area. I like your taste. Cheers!

    I'm planning to move to Bangkok from England some time towards the end of this year or early next year. I personally will be looking for a condo on the outskirts of the city as they're usually much cheaper and I will have no issues with using public transport into the city centre when required as I used the MRT and BTS a lot on my two previous visits.
