Best place to stay in Bangkok, +30 Travellers stay here

Pros: Everything. So far, one of the best hostels I’ve stayed at in Asia. Not super big or crowded, it even has a kitchen where you can cook if you fancy, and with a breakfast home made by the staff (bread, some jams, peanut butter and coffee). Location is great too, close to everything. Enough quantity of toilets, rooms are big and it’s the kind of place where you can relax but yet meeting people on the same vibe. And the staff and the owners are just lovely and super friendly.

Cons: Nothing really. I highly recommend it.

Fantastic stay in a quiet hostel

Pros: I had a wonderful stay at this hostel and would absolutely recommend it to anyone visiting the area. All of my requests were perfectly accommodated, which made me feel very welcome from the start. The rooms are spacious, the beds are extremely comfortable, and the whole place has a quiet, cozy, almost family-like atmosphere where you instantly feel at ease. It’s the perfect spot to relax after a busy day exploring the city. David, the owner, was incredibly kind and helpful—he gave me lots of great local tips and really went out of his way to make sure I had a great experience. There is a lovely common room with a TV where you can unwind after sightseeing, and everything is kept very clean. The hostel is located in a peaceful neighborhood but still close to everything, with markets and shops nearby, which is super convenient. Overall, a fantastic stay: comfortable, calm, friendly, and well located. I would definitely come back!

Cute hostel

Pros: Comfortable beds, enough bathrooms with good towels provided. Friendly staff. Would recommend.

Cons: It would be nice if there would be put more effort in the cleaning, especially the bathrooms. Sometimes there was a bad sweet smell from the drains etc. The door to our dorm was squeaking. A mosquito net on one window would be a helpful addition to get in more fresh air to the dorm with 12 people even at night.

Pros: Amazing atmosphere, nice people, safe and comfortable. We had a double room, it was spacious, but the blanket was too small for two people. Everything else was excellent, I will come back!

Pros: David is a helpful and welcoming host, neighbourhood is quiet and Sky train is 10 mn walking. Lobby and kitchen are small but atmosphere is sweet, feels a bit like home.

Cons: Matress was on the hard side but overall still great value for money. People around were friendly at that time, recommend for solo travelers.
