Conrad Bangkok Expands Limo Fleet

October 19, 2007 at 12:45 PM | 0 Comments

Early this year, the Conrad Bangkok was looking to lure lonely travelers with Mercedes limos and chauffeur service. Now the luxury of riding in a bespoke Benz is open to all with a new fleet of tricked out S-Class limos for hire at 1,500 Baht ($47) an hour.

From the back seat of these babies, you'll get to avoid the notorious Bangkok traffic. Seat-back TVs also pipe in movies and Bloomberg news, and you can plug your iPod into the 12 speaker sound system.

If this type of style is a bit too much--or a bit too pricey--the Conrad also has two "Easy Rider" scooters. We're not sure what they have to do with Peter Fonda and Dennis Hopper, but they can easily snake through gridlocked traffic. Even better: Rides on the back of the Benz scooters start at just $1.
