Not much is floating these days but it's fun to wander round and have something to eat.
Cool boutique eco hotel. If you fancy getting away from it all but don't want to leave Bangkok this is the place to come.
Good cafe on Ekkami, lots of art on the walls and the coffee is very good. Worth finding.
Excellent high end Indian restaurant at the top of the hotel, so also has good views. Enjoy the live music while you eat. Need to wear trousers if you're a man.
Good bar if you want a quiet beer. Not as lively as the other branches and doesn't show sport.
Free WiFi, high end shops, some good places to eat (2nd floor hong kong noodle and congee is highly recommended) and a City Super in the basement.
Can often see people dancing, playing Chinese checkers or doing water calligraphy here.
One of the more relaxed parks in town, with plenty of places to sit and relax.
Come early morning to beat the crowds, if your lucky and the smog isn't too bad the views are great.
Yes bargains can be found but so can disappointment. In general you get what you pay for (unless you've been ripped off). For mens shirts Jennifer (237) is hard to beat, 100-150 RMB per shirt.
Interesting little museum with a wide range of posters to buy. It's hidden within the housing complex but it's signposted.
A cut above places like dragonfly, relaxing, well designed rooms, good massages and if you're in town for while pretty good value with a membership card. Highly recommended.
Small cafe, perfectly formed coffee. Some of the best coffee in shanghai, they have espresso based drinks and a good range of single origin coffee to choose from.
Relatively quiet and relaxing pub with decent food and a good range of (strong) craft brews.
Food is mostly good, a few dishes have a twist too many like the tomato salad with some kind of horseradish sorbet. Cocktails are decent but not outstanding. The decor is the real winner here.
Friendly helpful staff, nice shower and comfortable bed. Good location in the old quarter. Good midrange option.
An art space with coffee. It's located in a lovely old building along a pretty lane. Nice break from the heat and noise.
Cool bar with some interesting art inside, love the old bed spring divider door. Could do with a few more cocktails on the menu but the London Evening is pretty tasty.
Relaxed friendly setting for dinner or drinks, they have live music some nights.
