Majestic Suites Limo Transfer

Hi All,

I notice on the Bangkok Majestic Suites web page that they offer a limo transfer service for 1200B. Was wondering whether anyone has used this, particularly from the new airport, the name I will master before I get there in April.

Might sound a lot, but for a first timer in LOS may be worth it. I will have paid double that to get to the airport in Sydney.

Thanks for reading this post and thanks for a great forum,
Charles.

1200baht to or from the airport is a piss-take. A taxi will cost you half that. I've not been to the new airport yet myself, but how hard can getting a cab be?

Unless you have a load of luggage, are travelling with a large family, or want some kind of rock star status in a Merc or BMW, there is no need for a private hotel limo service. You can get to this hotel for under 400 bt from Suvarnabhumi by catching a metered/airport cab. Be warned though that you have to go down one floor from bag claim to get to these taxis. At bag claim level, they have limo touts offering 900 bt to BKK.

Thanks for you replies.

A metered taxi from downstairs it is. That's around 800 baht extra in the kitty.

I was in BKK for about 12 hours in April last year as I had to wait for my flight home. I didn't wait in the airport of course and I went out and asked a driver to take me for some sight seeing and of course to a massage place LOL... The whole thing costed me 1000 Baht and since the driver was so nice I gave him a couple of 100 extra.

1200 for a one way drive is too much but you can always ask the driver to give you a sight seeing service and some pointers, it'll cost you a grand or so but could be worth it if it's your first time...

Cheers!
