House by the Pond

I was pleasantly surprised by how quiet and green this place feels despite being smack in the middle of Bangkok. The gardens are lovely and well-kept, with little turtles and even bunnies hopping around, which was a nice touch since I travel with my dog. The apartments have this cool vintage vibe—kind of quirky but cozy—and there’s more space than your typical city studio. The rooftop garden quickly became my go-to spot for unwinding and catching some fresh air without the usual city noise. Plus, the staff, especially Apituck and Hanah, were really friendly and helpful whenever I needed anything. If you want a peaceful spot that’s still close to public transport and shopping areas like EmSphere or Benjakitti Park, this is a solid find.

Having spent nearly a year at House by the Pond, I can confidently say it's a delightful oasis amid Bangkok's hustle and bustle. The vintage charm and lush tropical setting provide a peaceful escape. The rooftop terrace offers stunning city views, making it a favorite spot to unwind. Its pet-friendly nature is a significant bonus, and Mr. Apituck's welcoming demeanor adds to the overall experience. The proximity to Emsphere, Benjakitti Park, and public transport makes it a convenient choice for anyone looking to balance tranquility with easy access to city life.

House by the Pond is a true sanctuary nestled in the heart of bustling Bangkok. The lush greenery and serene ponds create a tranquil atmosphere that's hard to find in the city. The colonial-inspired design and vintage charm of the apartments make it feel like a cozy retreat. The pet-friendly environment, complete with resident animals like rabbits and turtles, is a rare find. The owner, Apituck, is incredibly attentive, ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable stay for all guests. With its perfect blend of peace and proximity to city attractions, it's a hidden gem worth discovering.
