People from around the globe decide to make the Asian country of Thailand their home for various reasons. Throughout the city of Bangkok, bubbles of expat communities are rising. However, Sukhumvit and Sathorn are two districts in particular that are popular choices.
Sukhumvit
If you’ve previously visited any hotel in Sukhumvit, the likes of Maitria Hotel Sukhumvit 18, you’ll know that this area is packed with attractions, making it popular among the expat community. This area in Bangkok is renowned for being the place to visit later on in the evening as it boasts a number of hotspots for partying into the early hours. Sukhumvit has its share of small and quiet cafes and also high-end restaurants, luxury hotels, and shops.
Sathorn
The Sathorn district is quite popular among foreign tourists, due to the many luxurious hotels. With its selection of high-end international restaurants and luxury dining spots serving a variety of cuisines, this trendy district is ideal for expat living. Sathorn is also situated relatively close to a number of different attractions.
Conclusion
Both districts are unique in their own ways, so the better pick depends on what you’re looking for. If you want a slower pace of life with natural spaces and a sophisticated nightlife, Sathorn is the better pick. If you like a mature, relaxed living with everything at your disposal, then Sukhumvit is the place for you to live.
