Central Department Store Ltd Reviews

Nice upmarket mall (if you into that kind of thing).

Difficult to get in and out because the path is quite narrow.

Central Department Store has a long and illustrious history, helping to shape the retail industry in Thailand.

The Central legacy started in 1947, with Tiang and Samrit Chirathivat bringing in innovative ideas with new merchandise lines of ready-made clothing and cosmetics to offer alongside newspapers and magazines to the Thai public.

Throughout the following decades, Central grew with new stores opening across Bangkok, bringing in pioneering ideas to the Thai retail industry, such as merchandise displays, fixed pricing systems and linking supermarkets to their stores brought new ideas and standards to their customers.

1973 saw a landmark for Central Department Store, with the opening of its flagship store at Chidlom, in the heart of Bangkok. This new monument to retail offered the first in one-stop shopping where everything that customers would want could be found in one retail centre.

Always keeping the customers needs at heart, Central expanded rapidly and became the first Bangkok-based department store to reach out to the rest of the country, opening new stores across the whole of the country offering the highest in standards to those who may not be able to get to Bangkok and establishing itself as truly Thailand s Best-Loved Department Store .

The last decade has seen Central look further afield, with an expansion into the ASEAN market and the opening of new Central Department Stores giving a regional appeal throughout south-east Asia, and then to Europe with LaRinascente, Illum, KaDeWe, Alsterhaus and Oberpollinger brought into the Central family to set Central as a truly international name in the retail industry.

With all of these expansions, Central has kept to its original ethos and still family run by the Chirathivats, it prides itself on its unwavering commitment to maintain the best products and services available, exciting lifestyle activities and interactions and unparalleled customer services.

Large network multi-brand store. Good discounts + discount on the store card, summarized. You will exchange points for bats. There is a VAT Refaund.

The price is reduced. SkyWalk is easy to walk into the mall from bts.

This is one of the upscale shopping mall in bangkok. You will find almost all the top global brands here. Enjoy.

Nice compact mall with many premium quality goods and brand names with a good supermarket

The convenience of the super has a lot to choose from. Complete as needed

Good arrangements, varieties of goods to shop, and cosy atmosphere

One of the malls I keep coming back to. This departmental store is a mini (and price wise scaled down) version of selfridges for you. Conveniently located and there is always some sort of offer going on. They have a nice kids play area too!

I like this mall since it's small and you can go around buy what you need right away. A bit pricey though. Love the wide range of grocery selection in Central Food Hall...fruits are great and i like buying their ready-to-eat menu.

Very nice shopping mall, is a must visit for foreigner.

I love this mall it has a lot of amazing shops
7-storey department store from beauty fashion and home decorations. verity of restaurants and cafes

I spent two days in this mall and I would love to go back again. I highly recommend it

Big, classical departement store where you can get basically everything. Lot of expensive labels, but also more affordable brands. Sport section was very good, as well as children's clothing departement. There is also rather wide outlet area.

Is the first walk-in mall The Goddess 30 years ago also gave Central Chidlom is the mall that we think is the best in Bangkok until today.

Convenient transportation, there are different characteristics of goods in the same department store.

Well service food court and reasonable price. Not many choices but it is cover all you need.

A very well laid out , large mall in the centre of the city. The layout and range of goods was excellent the service was exemplary as always in Thailand. We bought several things from different sections of the mall, including a lunch at the deli. There was valet parking, a great help. Overall a very enjoyable experience

It is the most common in the mall around here. Lol
The escalator connected with the embassy is outdated. LOL

For food, Central Chidlom has one of the best food courts I ve visited. Even has a walk in cheese room. Wine selection is great. Parking is ok, but a bit tight for large cars.

Good place to shop if one is looking for traditional emporium style shopping. A bit dated though.

Went to buy an electric appliance at Power Buy There are many things to choose from. Reliable quality But the price is fairly high

BTS Qilong Station can be accessed via the empty bridge to Central Chidlom Department Store (the earliest department store opened by Suntech Group). There is a connecting passage to the food court and central embassy, so you don't have to walk outside. A total of 8 floors, mainly boutique, 7th floor is food street

Happy to cook, even if not good at other people, but try to be cooked.

Long-established department store, smaller scale comparing to those of later ramification, has been a sovereign one to people of hi-society for ages. It s the only branch with no cinema theatre, but doesn t matter coz main purposes of the customers are mostly just shopping and eating. Transportation is much easier by BTS train.

Central Chidlom for all shopping you can imagine. Try Food loft at 7th floor. Food from all corners of the world

I like the food court on the 7/F. That's splendid. A bit pricey tho

Great shopping mall, but quite pricey.
Food loft in this mall has many great foods, recommended.

High-end central located at Chidlom BST station. In the past, rumor has it that this is the branch with highest revenue between all the Central community.

One of the most beautiful department stores in Thailand. Location, disposition, professionalism, it has a soul, open for more than 30 years. Always on top. On the 7th floor food court excellent international meal, dessert and drinks. Above all, do not pass by.

Full range of products. Come to one place has everything.

Has the best supermarket in Bangkok in my opinion and also has some good clothing brands that are hard to find in this city. The food court at the top is really good. The only negative would be the difficult parking.

Central branch of the service. It is in the area of traffic congestion. It's a branch that has been open for a long time. Several improvements have been made. I also feel that there is less space than the new department store. Raising a product to fit the people in that area might be a good solution for this field.

One of the most complex department in the heart in Bangkok. Can find many activities in here. New Apple Store will open here.

Best one-stop-shop for people with plenty money, good taste, and little time.

Even though this mall is old and outdated. But this mall have got everything. And it is connected to one of the most luxury malls in Bangkok! As well it is connected to Chidlom BTS station.

Easily reached with the BTS. It still has its charm being one of the first department stores in the city centre. Choice of merchandise in all departments is good. Supermarket is excellent and the Food Loft is great.

One of my favourite gourmet supermarket in this sprawling shopping complex.

The spacious, clean, courteous staff Beautiful modern decoration Facilities are complete. Very clean bathroom. But no soap to wash their hands

Five stars at a 5 star price. Impressive place to visit with lots of top of the range branded stores. For the discerning customer.

Very pleasant shopping experience I had here as some of the staffs speaks very good English. Vat refund available for 2k above spent. U can access from Chidlom.
