The Sukhothai Residences

The Sukhothai Residences is in the Lumpini district of Bangkok, in the area known as Silom - Sathorn. This is the centre of Sathorn, a financial and diplomatic part of the city that still feels calm. Lumphini Park is about 1.0 km away, and the area has a good choice of shops and restaurants, which makes daily life easy for residents.

Getting to the building is simple by metro, by Skytrain or by car. The MRT Lumphini station is about 1.2 km away and the BTS Sala Daeng station is about 1.5 km away. The Chalerm Maha Nakhon Expressway is close by, giving fast access to other parts of Bangkok. The Commons Saladaeng is 1.2 km from the building, Silom Complex is 1.7 km away and Lumphini Park is 1.0 km away. You do not depend on one type of transport.

The project was built by HKR International and completed in 2010. It has two buildings of 41 floors each. It is a condominium aimed at people who want to live in central Bangkok. The height of the towers gives good views from the upper floors, and after about fifteen years the project is established and in normal use.

Several well-known restaurants are nearby: Le Du (Michelin Star, modern Thai), Baan (Michelin Bib Gourmand, Thai family recipes), Suhring (Michelin Star, modern German) and Ojo Bangkok (upscale Mexican with panoramic city views). For families, the international schools are Crescent International School at 1.8 km, St. Andrews International School, Sathorn at 2.2 km and Garden International School at 2.5 km. Hospitals nearby are BNH Hospital at 1.6 km and King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital at 2.2 km.

All three apartments are freehold. For foreign buyers this matters, and the foreign freehold quota is available for one of them.
