- richiemccawSingapore, Singapore187 contributionsMust visit!CentralWorld is a must-visit for my family and me when we visit Bangkok. It has got everything - shopping, cinema, F&B, banks and money changers. The building layout is traditional since it has been around for a long time. Credit to the building management for making lots of effort to refresh the interior and keep the mix of stores updated. Other malls have more interesting interior layouts like Central Embassy, Emquartier and Iconsiam for sure. However when it comes to the mix of shopping and F&B options, I do think CentralWorld is no.1. The bonus is that their Christmas decorations are always top-notch so it is always a nice for us to visit during Decembers.Visited December 2022Written 30 December 2022
- RebeccaUnited Kingdom37 contributionsNice place to avoid the heat of Bangkok!This mall is huge, like you could seriously get lost in there itās so big. Very varied selection of shops, cafes and restaurants. Outside there is also a good selection of street food places to choose from. We came back twice and I still donāt think we saw every shop! It has air con too so even on a very busy day or hot day you donāt feel hot and sweaty. A must if you are on a shopping trip! šVisited January 2023Travelled as a coupleWritten 9 January 2023
- Anita RosalehTaipei, Taiwan97 contributionsOne of the coolest shopping center in the areaOne of the coolest shopping center with huge variety in the heart of Bangkok. Itās located across the street from big C and superrich headquarters (one of the best money changer in Thailand).. The shops are beautifully presented.. Thereās something for everyone! For upscale brands to handmade crafts to electronics.. They have farmers market that sells beautifully presented vegetables and a food court that actually tastes better and in better pricing than the Bangkok street market just outside the mall..Visited December 2022Travelled as a coupleWritten 15 January 2023
- Tan B00nBangkok, Thailand14 contributionsLink from siamNice location not to tight of the people, this is keep for my memory that is close to siam area if you take a BTS this location is in the middle of Chidlom and Siam station, easy to using sky walk direct to shopping mall. I went pass this to the opposite site at Big C center to by a snack for my nephew. Next to this will be plattinum mallVisited February 2023Written 21 February 2023
- nathalie d2 contributionsretail therapy and exercise!Best mall in Bangkok along with Terminal 21. It's got everything and because it's huge it's never crowded. I love walking and it provides me with miles of exercise without the oppressive heat and the crazy traffic of the streets of Bangkok. I love the central department store, their womenswear selection is great quality and not over the top expensive. The shoes floor has a superb selection and the lingerie floor is also a must visit. The japanese bookshop on the upper floor of the mall is spectacular. The food court on the top floor is superb and there are many restaurants and cafes for scooby snacks and more. There are lots of the usual international brands and also the better quality Thai ones like jaspal, lyn, cps, charles and keith etc... It depends what you are after really... If you want quality at mid price level you will love it.Visited March 2023Written 26 March 2023
- PhamSunHTexas Gulf Coast, Texas22 contributionsAmazing and LuxuryWith the size of this mall, you can probably find anything you're looking for. You'd better put on your walking shoes because you're about to discover what it means to "shop 'til you drop." Also, it's close to the BTS skytrain station, making it simple to get to.Visited February 2023Travelled as a coupleWritten 27 March 2023

Quite modern and with everything you might want to buy, especially the brand names, it was easy to get lost in it's vastness. It is handily located near a rail station.Visited April 2023Travelled soloWritten 6 May 2023

We wanted to take a moment to express our sincere appreciation for the outstanding service and dining experience we had at Central World Tops Foodhall recently. Restaurant manager Nataleeya and staff Thichapan took every effort to making sure our dining a truly memorable one. We will undoubtedly return to the restaurant during our next Bangkok trip, and also recommend it to our friends and family without hesitation.

Beautiful mall - not particularly cheap, but very nice stores. The gorgeous Apple Store is on the corner in front of the mall. Our concierge recommended a restaurant on the 3rd floor, which we loved... I forget the name, but something like Ko Ki Ko Keh - that's not right, but I recommend it!
