Bold modern design, spacious rooms, and plenty of in-house amenities make this new serviced apartment property a standout in the neighborhood. The smallest one-bedroom suites are 60 square meters, but the monthly rates (especially during promotions) make the place a bargain for long-stay visitors compared to similarly luxurious hotels in the area.

The downstairs restaurant offers Thai fusion and there’s a swanky little bar, too. Extras such as a free Skytrain pass and a local SIM card for your mobile phone are the icing on the cake.

Some may find the location a drawback, as it is a 20-minute walk from the Skytrain, but there is a complimentary tuk-tuk shuttle.
