Hotel description
Bangkok is a bustling metropolis full of life and adventure around every corner. It is a mix of both Asian and Western cultures and has become one of Southeast Asia’s most popular tourist destinations. Even within a city of the 21st century, surrounded by skyscrapers, shopping malls and hectic lifestyles, there are still places where one can escape to a simpler, more serene lifestyle. Baan Pra Nond Bed & Breakfast, the former home of a Supreme Court justice of Thailand, is a retreat from the hustle and bustle of the city. The 70-year-old home was built and constructed for a mere 8,000 baht (approx 235 US$ or 170 Euros) in the architectural style that was popular for the day and what is now considered Thai Colonial.

While that may have proven to be unpopular at the time, that modernization has now led to the convenience that Baan Pra Nond Bed & Breakfast can offer to its guests. We hope that you will come to enjoy Bann Pra Nond Bed & Brekfast’s exquisite and unique allure, delighting in its traditional charms while taking advantage of its modern conveniences. Baan Pra Nond was the idea of Tasma Cotsmire, a former advertising creative, who was looking to trade in her long, stress filled days for a simpler, quieter lifestyle. Every morning on her way to work, Khun Tasma would pass by her grandfather’s old house and dream of opening up her own Bed & Breakfast. Inspiration met realization when she convinced her mother, aunts and uncle, former residents of the home, to give her the opportunity to put that dream into motion. After a year of planning and renovations, the old family
