Tips for Shopping at The Platinum Fashion Mall

Bargain for Wholesale Price

Most of the shops sell at the retail price for small amounts of an item. However, if you are purchasing anything in bulk, then you can bargain to pay the wholesale price and save. Sharpen your bargaining skills, and some shopkeepers will offer you a wholesale price for one or two pieces.

Dress wisely

The mall spans 110,000 square meters across 6 storeys. You could spend a whole day walking and browsing through the 2000 shops. So, we recommend wearing very comfortable shoes. Forget high heels, and grab your sneakers so you can shop ‘til you drop in comfort and style.

Choose the right day

While the mall is open 7 days a week, if you would prefer to shop without overcrowding then, we suggest visiting on a weekday. You might want to visit on a Monday, Wednesday or Friday. Not only are fewer people shopping. But shop owners also receive their new items on these days as well. So, you will have first pick on the latest trends and bargain.

Don’t miss out on what you want

With over 2000 shops at the Platinum Fashion Mall, it is easy to get overwhelmed and not want to purchase a product straight away in case you find something else, cheaper. So, if you find an item that you want to buy, just grab it in case you cannot navigate your way back. However, if you think you might come back later, make sure you note down the shop number. Or ask for a name card from that shop to find your way back again.

Stay in a Hotel near Platinum Fashion Mall

After a full day of walking and shopping, there is nothing worse than a long carrying your shopping bags on a long journey back to your home or hotel. Make a night of it, and stay not just near the mall, but above the mall at Novotel Bangkok Platinum. Sitting directly on top of the shopping mall, you can shop all day, and then take time to rest and relax.

Lounge at the outdoor pool, enjoy a spa treatment or grab a drink with friends at View Rooftop Bar. Just take the escalator at the hotel’s lobby on the 6th floor down to the ground floor. And, you will find The Platinum Fashion Mall right next to the hotel. It doesn’t get more convenient than that!
