Here is a quick summary of how to find us:

• From Chong Nonsi BTS station take Exit 5.

• You will take the big footbridge over Sathorn Road and go down the stairs in front of Empire Tower (you will see a big Virgin Active gym).

• Then turn and walk along Sathorn Road - this is the road with the skytrain running above it (if no skytrain above you, you are going in the wrong direction).

• You will walk pass The Ascott Hotel and see the W Hotel on the other side of the road.

• 50m after The Ascott turn left into Sathorn Soi 9.

• In Soi 9, the road bends 90 degrees right, and then left, and then left again. We are in a very very small street on the right just after the 2nd left and about 50m before Pans Collection furniture shop and Little Maple Kindergarden.
