Ekkamai
Thong Lor’s quieter neighbour, low-rise and slow in the morning.
The quieter side of Sukhumvit 63
Ekkamai runs alongside Thong Lor and keeps a gentler pace. The sois are residential and tree-lined, the cafés independent, and the towers stay low enough to let the morning in.
It draws residents who want Thong Lor’s dining and design within walking distance, at an address a register calmer.
A street quieter than the next, by design.
Living here
Mulberry Grove, VIA61 and the forthcoming Eden lead the residential side; Gateway Ekamai and a long run of cafés and izakayas hold the lifestyle. The Eastern bus terminal keeps the coast a direct ride away.
Getting around
Ekkamai BTS sits one stop east of Thong Lo, with the planned Grey Line monorail set to cross here. Siam is a short ride west along the Sukhumvit line.
