Cruising The Chao Phraya River With Boat Ferry And Admiring The Diverse Riverfront Landscape Of Bangkok | Thailand
My hotel is only 10 minutes walk from the Sathorn Central Pier, so the public ferry system became my main transportation going about downtown Bangkok. This is something to consider when selecting a place to stay, living close to the river and close to a ferry terminal has it’s advantages.

Walking Around Bangkok By The Chao Phraya River In the Early Morning | Thailand
Arriving Bangkok pretty late, or rather, pretty early; by the time I reach the hotel (Centre Point Hotel Silom), its already around 3 am, so it depends on how you look at it.
I knew my arriving time, so I have decided not to pay for the night I don’t really use, instead, I will rest in the hotel in the wee hour upon arrival and hang out around the city until check in time. Being a cheapskate that I am, I thought this was a fantastic idea. Come on, I saved a day!
Thank God the hotel is very accommodating with the idea, they took my luggage, store it safely, and led me to their 4th floor lobby and let me sleep there, customer service is first class, a great start in Bangkok.
