💰 How far does your money go?
A bowl of pad thai from a street cart costs around €1.50, and a bottle of Chang beer at a night market runs about €2.50, less than half what you'd pay for a Fassbier in Vienna's 1st district. A full plate of khao man gai with a fresh coconut on the side rarely tops €3, cheaper than a Melange and a slice of Sachertorte back home.
☀️ The Weather
Bangkok sits around 30°C through September, with the tail end of the monsoon bringing regular afternoon downpours and high humidity. October eases only slightly, with highs near 31°C, but rain becomes less frequent as the month goes on, making it the better pick for drier days.
🏨 Where to Stay
Options from a budget bed near Khaosan Road to a riverside suite with skyline views.
Excel Hotel Bangkok — 8.1/10 · From €31/night Simple rooms ten minutes' walk from the Grand Palace, ideal if you'd rather spend on street food than the room.
Compass SkyView Hotel — 8.9/10 · From €52/night A rooftop infinity pool in Sukhumvit, steps from the BTS and the Emporium mall.
Capella Bangkok — 9.3/10 · From €750/night A riverside sanctuary on the Chao Phraya, for anyone treating this trip as the holiday of the year.
🎯 What to Do
A city that swings from gilded temples to rooftop bars within one BTS ride.
Chao Phraya river boat — Hop on the river's public boats and float past temples and old trading houses without fighting Bangkok traffic.
Grand Palace, Wat Arun and Wat Pho — The city's three unmissable temples, gold spires, a giant reclining Buddha and river views from the Temple of Dawn.
Chinatown night market — Yaowarat Road after dark, wok smoke, seafood stalls and neon signs older than most visitors.
Muay Thai at Rajadamnern Stadium — Thailand's oldest boxing stadium, ringside seats and a night you won't get anywhere else.
🗺️ Where to Go From Here
Bangkok doubles as the launchpad for the rest of Thailand.
Koh Samui — Beach island in the Gulf of Thailand, about 1 hour by flight or an overnight sleeper train plus ferry.
Chiang Mai — Mountains, temples and night markets up north, roughly 1 hour 15 by flight.
Ayutthaya — The ruined former capital, an easy 1.5-hour train ride away.
Pattaya — The closest beach escape, about 2 hours by bus.
One stop, under €500, and two months of dates to choose from. Bangkok doesn't sit this cheap for long.
