Grand Richmond Hotel is a large 4-star hotel on Ngamwongwan Road in the Khae Rai area of Nonthaburi province. It has more than 774 rooms and its own convention center in the same building. For people attending events at Muang Thong Thani, the main draw is distance: it's about 5 kilometers from IMPACT Arena, a short drive or taxi ride away, though not close enough to walk.
A hotel this size is a good option when major events at IMPACT fill up accommodation in the Muang Thong Thani area itself. With more than 774 rooms, there's usually still availability on busy dates, and if you're travelling as a large group, an exhibition team, or a seminar delegation, booking multiple rooms in one hotel is easier here than at a smaller property.
Confirmed facilities include an indoor pool, a spa, meeting and banquet space in the hotel's own convention center, and parking for up to 1,000 cars, a clear advantage for anyone driving themselves. For those using the rail network, the MRT Purple Line's Nonthaburi 1 station is close to the hotel.
Why IMPACT event-goers pick this place
- About 5 kilometers from IMPACT Arena, a short drive or taxi ride to the venue, a solid backup choice when accommodation in Muang Thong Thani itself is full.
- Parking for up to 1,000 cars, so drivers don't need to worry about parking near the venue on busy event days.
- More than 774 rooms, better odds of finding availability during major fairs or concerts at IMPACT than at smaller hotels, and enough capacity for large groups.
- Has its own convention center, useful for teams with daytime events at IMPACT who need to meet or hold a dinner at the hotel in the evening.
- Indoor pool and spa, good for unwinding after a full day at a trade fair or after a running event in Muang Thong Thani.
- Close to the MRT Purple Line's Nonthaburi 1 station, giving you an alternative to driving when Chaeng Watthana Road is jammed on event days.
Distance and travel time to every IMPACT hall
The hotel is about 5 kilometers from IMPACT Arena. All of IMPACT's halls sit in the same area of Muang Thong Thani, so the distance is roughly the same to each one. The key thing to know before booking: none of the halls are within walking distance of the hotel. You'll need a vehicle for every trip, both ways.
Travel time to allow for depends on timing. On weekdays outside rush hour, the drive takes about 15 to 25 minutes. On days with a major fair or concert, when large crowds arrive and leave at once, Chaeng Watthana Road and the entrances to Muang Thong Thani get congested, so allow 40 to 60 minutes.
- IMPACT Arena: about 5 km, not walkable, requires a vehicle. About 15 to 25 minutes by car under normal conditions.
- Thunder Dome: about 5 km, not walkable, requires a vehicle. Same zone as IMPACT Arena.
- IMPACT Challenger: about 5 km, not walkable, requires a vehicle. Have your driver drop you directly at the Challenger entrance.
- IMPACT Exhibition Hall: about 5 km, not walkable, requires a vehicle. Confirm the hall number with your driver before setting off.
- On major event days, leave the hotel at least 60 minutes before your entry time.
Getting around: private car, taxi, and rail
Driving yourself is the most convenient option, since the hotel sits on Ngamwongwan Road in Khae Rai, with a direct route via Chaeng Watthana Road into Muang Thong Thani, a distance of about 5 kilometers, and the hotel has parking for 1,000 cars.
Taxis and ride-hailing apps are the main option for anyone not driving. At 5 kilometers, the trip itself is short, but cars can be hard to find right after an event or concert lets out at IMPACT. It's best to walk clear of the hall area before calling a ride.
On the rail side, the hotel is close to the MRT Purple Line's Nonthaburi 1 station. You can ride to Nonthaburi Government Center station, transfer to the Pink Line, and get off on the Muang Thong Thani side to continue to IMPACT by car. This route helps you avoid traffic on Chaeng Watthana Road during major events.
- Private car: about 5 km from the hotel to IMPACT, roughly 15 to 25 minutes under normal conditions.
- Taxi or ride-hailing app: good for late returns after concerts; allow 15 to 30 minutes waiting time when everyone is leaving at once.
- Rail: MRT Purple Line's Nonthaburi 1 station is close to the hotel; transfer to the Pink Line at Nonthaburi Government Center station.
- If you're attending events over several consecutive days, driving yourself and parking at the hotel is more convenient than calling a ride every day.
Parking
The hotel's parking lot holds up to 1,000 cars, a very large number for a hotel of this kind. This matters for anyone attending events at IMPACT, since parking areas around Muang Thong Thani fill up quickly on major event days and finding a spot can take a while.
Many guests park at the hotel and then take a taxi or ride-hailing app into the venue on days they expect especially heavy crowds, which sidesteps the parking problem at the venue entirely.
- Parking for 1,000 cars.
- Travelling in a group with multiple vehicles? Let the hotel know your car count in advance at 02 831 8888.
- On major IMPACT event days, park at the hotel and take a car onward to the venue rather than circling for parking there.
Indoor pool and spa
The hotel has an indoor pool and a spa. The advantage of an indoor pool is that it's usable in any weather, no need to worry about rain or harsh sun as you would with an outdoor pool. It suits anyone coming back from a full day at a trade fair who wants to swim and unwind in the evening.
For those in town for a running event or sports event at Muang Thong Thani, the spa is a good way to ease sore muscles afterward. Confirm opening hours and booking directly with the hotel at 02 831 8888 before your visit.
- Indoor pool, usable in any weather.
- On-site spa.
- Confirm hours and book in advance at 02 831 8888.
Meeting rooms and banquet space
The hotel has its own convention center in the building, so you can hold meetings, seminars, and banquets on-site without moving to another venue.
This suits people attending IMPACT events who want to use the hotel as a team base: a morning briefing or sales team huddle before heading out to the booth, then a thank-you dinner for the team in the evening after the event wraps up. For room sizes, capacity, and packages, contact the hotel's sales team at 02 831 8888.
- Convention center on-site, no need to travel elsewhere.
- Suits exhibition teams who need to meet before and after events at IMPACT.
- Ask about room capacity and banquet packages at 02 831 8888.
Hotel size and group capacity
With more than 774 rooms, this hotel can genuinely accommodate large groups. When IMPACT hosts a major fair or a run of concerts over several days, accommodation in the Muang Thong Thani area itself tends to book out well in advance, so event professionals often look to larger hotels within a 5-kilometer radius as a solution.
If you need a large block of rooms at once, for an exhibition team, a seminar delegation, or a concert tour group, contacting the hotel directly usually gets you more flexible group terms than booking rooms one at a time.
- More than 774 rooms, 4-star.
- Groups of 10 rooms or more, contact the hotel directly at 02 831 8888.
- Book at least 2 to 4 weeks ahead during major IMPACT events.
Who this hotel suits
The clearest beneficiaries are people driving themselves, since they get both the 1,000-car parking lot and the 5-kilometer distance to the venue. Next are large groups needing a big block of rooms in one hotel, and anyone who booked late once Muang Thong Thani options were already full.
Anyone who wants to walk from their hotel to the halls should think twice, since this 5-kilometer distance is definitely not walkable. You'll need a vehicle for every trip, including the late-night return after a concert ends.
- Good fit: drivers, exhibition teams, seminar delegations, runners in town for events at Muang Thong Thani.
- Good fit: late bookers once accommodation in the IMPACT area is full.
- Worth weighing: anyone who wants to walk to the halls, since the 5 km distance requires a vehicle every trip.
Tips for people attending events at IMPACT
First, on timing: 5 kilometers looks close, but on days when tens of thousands of people arrive at once, the roads into Muang Thong Thani slow down in waves. If you have a fixed start time, such as a seminar session or a concert door time, allow at least 60 minutes.
Second, on the return trip: once an event lets out, calling a car right at the hall entrance is difficult and prices spike. What works better is walking clear of the densest crowd before calling a ride, or waiting 20 to 30 minutes for the crowd to thin out.
Third, note the exact hall name and number. The IMPACT complex has several buildings, and simply telling a driver "Muang Thong Thani" often means getting dropped at the wrong spot and having to walk further than necessary.
- Allow at least 60 minutes of travel time on major event days, even though the distance is only 5 km.
- On the return trip, walk clear of the crowd before calling a ride, or wait 20 to 30 minutes.
- Tell your driver clearly whether you're headed to IMPACT Arena, Thunder Dome, IMPACT Challenger, or IMPACT Exhibition Hall.
- Park at the hotel and take a taxi to the venue to avoid the parking search in the event area.
