Centara Grand @ Central World(Bangkok hotel)


Hey peeps,we are back from our 5 days Bangkok vacation.Well,without a shadow of a doubt,the trip was truly a fulfilling one.
Basically,we went to every renowned shopping mall for some cheap and good apparels and popular thai tidbits.We also went to the popular chatuchak weekend market which consist of an impressive number of 9000 booths and shops.
The local delights there was also delicious and palatable especially a restaurant by the name of Hong Min in the MBK complex.
Meanwhile,we stayed in Centara Grand@Central World located in the shopping palace of Bangkok.The location was superb because the moment you step out of the hotel,you will see number of shopping malls.Prominent shopping malls are Siam Square,Paragon,Zen,Big C,Pratunam Centre,Platinum,Pintum,MBK and of course the 7 storey Central World itself.
The hotel also offers remarkable services and facilities like the gym,swimming pool,tennis court,spa etc.
Obviously,we went the gym on several occasion and the gym also offers aerobic courses like thai boxing,high intensity abdominal and lower back training,aqua aerobic,Pilate,yoga,etc.So,attached is a clip of the thai boxing programme with my personal trainer in the hotel gymnasium.

Bangkok trip

We are finally back from our Bangkok trip !And we really did enjoy ourselves.
We stayed in Prince Palace hotel near Bobae Tower.The hotel is indeed classy and luxurious with facilities like swimming pool,gym,sauna and steam.Only the morning breakfast buffet is kinda bad.Reason was the buffet perpetually serve same old food daily,everyone will get sick of it.
On the other hand,shopping there was great!Things you can find in Thailand are the imported goods in Singapore.Prices are you see there are jaw-dropping.It can be as low as one-tenth of what you see in Singapore.
Staying at Bobae vicinity has a big advantage.Just take a lift down to the ground floor at any time limit between 5.30am to 10 am,you will be able to shop for cheap and good apparels.
The clothing there are meant wholesale,therefore they can go as low as $1.99 sing dollar if you purchase 3 pieces or more.
We also managed to catch a gory 3D movie titled Scar.It was so gross !
Attached are just a few scenery shots.
