Make the most of Phaya Thai Station without baggage!
The Phaya Thai district is one of Bangkok’s unsung gems. It may lack the immediate appeal of Old Town, Sukhumvit, or Chinatown, but it offers a different experience. “Living like a local” has become a mantra for frequent travelers and wanderlusts in recent years, which has seen Phaya Thai’s popularity rise as it’s become more of a destination for both inexpensive and upscale cultural offerings. This leafy neighborhood is lined with both street food and bistros, and there are plenty of markets and shopping malls for some poking around. The Victory Monument, honoring Thailand's military past, towers over the rest of the neighborhood and makes for a worthy stop on a sightseeing itinerary.
It’s also exceptionally well connected to the rest of the city via public transportation. Phaya Thai Station is one of the city’s major transportation hubs for both tourism and commuting. The BTS Skytrain network, which is highly efficient and connects almost the entire city, runs through Phaya Thai Station along with the crucial Airport Rail Link which has a route to Suvarnabhumi International Airport.
If you’re staying in Phaya Thai, you’ll become well acquainted with the BTS Skytrain Sukhumvit Line which will connect you to the best of Bangkok’s sightseeing areas. With Bangkok’s primary airport within an hour and the city center reachable in about 20 minutes, you could do worse than Phaya Thai for a launching point.
Unfortunately, there aren’t any lockers or luggage storage facilities at Phaya Thai Station. You can store your luggage near the train station via a left luggage service like Bounce. it's preferable to use a service with a website or mobile app where you can find information about the nearest storage spot.
Both Bangkok airports offer limited luggage storage options. Don Mueang Airport has a luggage storage kiosk and desk at Terminal 2 on the 1st floor. At Suvarnabhumi Airport, you can head to Floor B near the Airport Rail Link for the luggage storage desk. It costs between $5 and $10 per item to store for the day. Both of these airports are situated well outside the city center and are really only useful if you need a place to store the bags while you're on a layover.
Your options might be slightly limited compared to cities in Europe and North America. Most attractions, especially the temples and shrines, won't offer any lockers or cloakrooms. Transit facility lockers are exceedingly rare. Your hotel is always a reliable option as the concierge desk or bellhop will be happy to take your bags for a few hours in return for a small tip. Your hotel might be situated out of the way, and you'll end up wasting precious hours of your trip getting to and from the hotel. Really, your best option has to be a dedicated luggage storage service like Bounce.

This tiny cluster of traditional wooden houses right in the heart of Central Bangkok strikes a curious juxtaposition between the bustling city and the bucolic charm presented by the ‘lettuce farm.’ The museum offers insight into the lives of Thai royalty, as the complex was the place of residence for Princess Chumbon of Nakhon Sawan, who built her houses on the land that was once a lettuce farm.
Touring the interior, you'll find well-kept furnishings, artwork, and relics of the time. Tranquil landscapes surrounding the houses feature little ponds, gardens, and plenty of ducks and swans fluttering about. Highlights include the Lacquer Pavilion, which boasts gold-leaf Jataka and Ramakian murals from the Ayuthaya period along with Khmer-style Hindu and Buddhist art, Ban Chiang ceramics, and plenty of golden Buddhas. It's a beguiling experience that hits at both the majesty and charm of traditional Thai culture.
American entrepreneur Jim Johnson was one of the earliest businessmen to ply their trade in Thailand, and his dynasty has become the stuff of legend for the fashion and textile industry. Originally stationed in Thailand during World War II as an intelligence officer, he stuck around and found business opportunities in Bangkok. His trade was silk, sending samples of Thai garments and materials to European designers, and building a vast network of illustrious clients.
His former home was as lavish and luxurious as any in Bangkok, and the leafy surroundings formed a jungle-like setting that's surprising in this part of Bangkok. You can tour the interior and estate grounds to learn about how the first of a few Western opportunists came to prominence. Once rich, he became an avid art collector, with much of his vast collection on display at the museum.
Had the story ended there, it would still merit the house being turned into a museum. However, Jim Johnson disappeared suddenly in 1967 when he was touring Malaysia. A year later his sister was murdered in America. None of these mysteries were solved, and conspiracy theories abound. This adds an eeriness to the experience, and a guided tour will delve further into the conspiracy theories about communists or other intriguing fodder. In any case, the house is beautifully preserved, and a fascinating corner of Thai and American history.
The origin story of this shrine is as strange and eerie as any haunted house or cemetery. This shrine was but in the 1950s as a last resort of a real estate developer after a series of setbacks derailed the construction of the planned Erawan Hotel. Honoring the Hindu Lord Brahma (the creator of this universe) to ward off further misfortunes. The work accidents miraculously ceased after the intricately decorated shrine was built. While the hotel operated successfully for a few decades, the shrine sadly didn’t work as a bomb went off next to it in 2015, killing 20 people. The shrine was repaired and reopened and remains a symbol of perseverance and a pilgrimage destination. It’s a beautiful shrine, and urban legends are rarely this well-documented.
The vast majority of international travelers will fly into Suvarnabhumi Airport, but you can also take a flight through Don Mueang Airport with a low-cost airline. Both are fairly well-connected to central Bangkok and Phaya Thai Station.
From Suvarnabhumi Airport, you can board the Airport Rail Link at the station located on the basement level. You can buy a ticket at the kiosk, and the train runs a few times an hour. The Airport Rail Link train takes approximately 25 minutes to get to Phaya Thai Station.
From Don Mueang Airport, you'll have to take a shuttle from the arrivals area to Mo Chit Station, the nearest BTS Skytrain station. From there you'll hop on a train bound for Bearing and take it to Siam Station. Then take the BTS Skytrain to Phaya Thai Station. Altogether it'll take about 45 minutes to get from Don Mueang to Phaya Thai Station. While each route does require some planning, taking the train is usually quicker than a taxi that has to sit in traffic.
While it does take about an hour, the best way to get to the Grand Palace from Phaya Thai Station is to take the BTS Skytrain. Hop on a Sukhumvit Line train heading towards Bearing. You'll get off at Siam Station and transfer to the #508 bus and take that towards the Grand Palace. It’ll take you to the Territorial Defense Command Stop (strange name, but it’s where the Grand Palace is located). The palace is a three-minute walk from there, and you won’t be able to miss it.
You can also take a taxi, which would save you about 45 minutes each way. Bangkok traffic can be a challenge during certain hours and even dreadful at times, but you’ll save a great deal of time by hopping in a 15-minute cab ride that’ll cost less than $10 each way. Considering how vital the Grand Palace is to the experience, it’s a must!
Siam Square, one of the absolute best areas of Bangkok, is exceedingly simple to reach from just about anywhere in the city.

From Siam Station, it's a short walk to Siam Square - just follow the signs.
