It is easy to see why Bangkok is a favourite destination for Singaporeans. The city has a rich history and culture, the food is great, and the shopping greater. The best part is, the flight there takes less than two hours from Singapore. As if all that is not enough, we now have another reason to visit the exciting city – Modena by Fraser Bangkok. This fuss-free hotel residence is sure to please both leisure travellers and corporate road warriors looking for short or extended stays.
After all, accommodation is one of the most crucial elements of a great vacation (or successful business trip), and Modena checks all the right boxes:
1. Location, location, location
Shopping malls, hip bars, restaurants and more – there’s plenty to see and do when you stay at Modena. Situated at the corner of bustling Rama IV Road, and linked to Queen Sirikit MRT subway station, the hotel is mere minutes away from Bangkok’s lively streets. Nearby is Soi 16, a cosmopolitan stretch of road peppered with tourist-friendly watering holes, spas, modern cafes and bistros.
2. Modern conveniences
Guests will appreciate the complimentary Wi-Fi (so you can stay up to speed with social media – and work, of course), 24-hour gym, self-service launderette and kitchenette (studio room only).
3. Localised experience
Just next door is Bangkok’s largest fresh market, Khlong Toei, where many locals shop for fresh fruits and vegetables. Opposite is Benjakiti Park, which allows you to enjoy a spot of greenery. Even during those times when you can’t step out of the hotel, you can enjoy award winning designer Ploenchan “Mook” Vinyaratn’s art and design pieces, which draw inspiration from Thai culture and Modena’s surroundings.
4. Great food
Grab a bite at the hotel’s all-day-dining restaurant Bistro@M, which serves mouthwatering dishes using ingredients from the nearby Khlong Toei market. Or just chill over international drinks and food at the trendy Coffee & Cider Bar.
5. Budget-friendly rooms
Modena’s reasonable room rates leave you with extra cash for shopping! Special opening rates start from just 2,300 baht ($92) a night for a Superior Room.
