Location
Salaya is just over the Bangkok boundary in Nakhon Pathom province, built up around the university and the Phutthamonthon park. The property places itself near Mahidol and close to local shopping.
The old page suggests the Grand Palace and National Museum are within easy access. In reality they're a long drive east across the city, so allow plenty of time if you plan to sightsee.
Good to know
- Expect higher demand around Mahidol graduation dates.
- Central Bangkok is a long drive away.
