This hotel is hard to find. Although we were provided directions in Thai, the cab driver still had a difficult time finding it. He called the hotel for directions and still got lost. Eventually found it though as I kept on looking at the map which was in English. I told the driver to make a u-turn under the Phra Kanong bridge. He eventually understood and made a u turn under the bridge before it reached the toll expressway. Just right after the u turn was the hotel.
