Chinatown And Pahurat
Guesthouses, hotels and resorts
Chinatown/Pahurat General
The few budget hotels in this area are either short-term places best avoided or particularly grimy and poor value.
Aside from theses a range of mid-range guesthouses off Chakraphet Road mainly aimed at South Asians are also on offer. Up around Maitrichit Road there are a lot of cheap Chinese hotels, but these are virtualy all short-term places and best avoided.

Hualamphong train station
A couple of cheap hotels lie within walking distance of Hualamphong that may be useful if you arrive late or are leaving early, but none of them are very good.
