Sathorn is one of the fastest developing areas of Bangkok, running between the corner of Lumphini Park on Rama IV Road and the Chao Phraya River, it forms the financial backbone of Bangkok and also houses many foreign embassies in Bangkok including the embassies of Australia, Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Luxembourg, Malaysia, Mexico, Morocco, Myanmar, Singapore, and Slovakia.
Many multi-national corporations have their Asia Pacific headquarters in the Sathorn Area and there are many luxurious accommodations catering to the expat population.
BNH, or Bangkok Nursing Home is also in the area, one of the many first class international grade hospitals that are becoming very popular in the medical tourism boom occurring in Thailand over the past decade.
A number of Bangkok’s finest hotels also line Sathorn road including the Banyan Tree, The Sukothai and the Metropolitan. Rooftop dining at the Banyan Tree is a treat that all visitors to Bangkok must try at least once. Save up though, as it isn’t cheap.
