Reseña del apartamento Varrzon Residence Sukhumvit 36
It’s been a while since I did an apartment review, so today I’ll be doing one for Varrzon Residence located on Sukhumvit 36, in Thong Lor.
I have stayed here for 2 years in a studio (year 1) and 1-bed unit (year 2).
Varrzon Residence rental prices
Varrazon Residence has 3 types of rooms, they are:
- Studio (11,000b -13,000b)
- Duplex (19,000b+)
- 1-Bedrooms (16,000b+)
All rooms comes with a two-piece stove meaning you can cook even in the studios. It’s vary rare to see studio apartments in Bangkok have a built-in kitchen, especially for as little as 11,000b in a high value location.
If you come with a Thai person you can negotiate contacts for 3-12months, if you’re really slick or it’s low season you may even be able to get 1-2 month contracts.
Keep in mind that this apartment is usually fully booked during high season. If you really want a room here, grease the receptionist with 500b and tell her to contact you when a room is free.
If you can speak Thai or have a Novia tailandesa she can maybe shave a thousand baht of the yearly rate.
I was able to get 1,000b off per month for my 1-bed because I stayed there before (I paid 15,000b).
If you are single and don’t mind a small studio room, I don’t think you’ll find a better place so close to Thong Lor BTS than Varrzon Residence.
Their 1-beds are good value if you can snap it for 16,000b per month or less. I feel their duplex rooms are a little overpriced as some go for as much as 30,000b. The 18-22k seems about right, anything more and you’re over paying.

Hey Harvie, somewhat related (I thought about it when you mentioned the slow Internet) – have you tested an alternative to the regular Internet in Bangkok? e.g. buying a 4G/LTE router and using it with a regular SIM card?
I have only tested this in other countries where the Internet cable lines were similarly poor (~2-3 Mbps) but when I switched to a mobile router, I suddenly got 90+ Mbps.
4G is limited in Thailand to certain areas, I don’t think you can get it in Thong Lor yet, could be wrong. I don’t need fast speeds as I mostly browse so it was never a big problem for me.
How did you hear about this place.. You have moved out, right? Why did you want to relocate? “Papperthin walls”, any nice neighbours.
I found it on an apartment rental site. I moved out because I went back to England. Neighbours were nice enough.
Same soi as Waterford? Looks like a great option if you can get a couple of months and don’t need long term.
It’s the opposite soi of Waterford, so the parallel opposite.
this place is super close to the tennis courts right?
Correct. It’s a 1 minute walk.
This place seems pretty awesome! Guess i need to get the corner room or else the neighbours will be too annoyed by all the banging and screaming from my room heheheh
That or make sure your next door neighbour is Japanese as they rarely make a lot of noise. It was only my farang neighbours who caused noise. PS there are two other condos in this soi in the 7-13k baht range but they aren’t as good as this.
Thanks. are you coming back to bangers ? if so im up for badminton, tennis or whatever
I’ll keep you posted brah.
How many farangs get a 10 Bath motorride? I never got less than 40 Bath regardless how short it was. So I walked shorter distances 🙂
Where are you getting them from? I paid 10b for about 2 years for that route.
This place only have big room @ 20k baht/mon available atm 🙁
Yes the studios go pretty quick, it’s worth tipping the women to let you know when they are free but she don’t speak English.
