Bangkok Riverside hotels & places to stay

I have to say it's very very good. Although we arrive at the hotel late missing 2 days of the 3 days that we booked earlier, the staff just move those dates on the following days so we still got the 3 days without additional charge. We have private cr, 24 hr water supply, 24hr wifi, ceiling fan, wide bed for two, window not accessible by anyone outside, tables, lockers and socket. It's good for middle class individuals or not so choosy and demanding high class people. Hahaha. I feel that my room here is like a room for college student with its basic amenities. They don't offer food I guess except for tea but there's a lot of thai food stalls just across the hotel. Its very accessible by all means of transportation and near to many of Bangkok's tourist destination along the riverside. In fact, manage to walk until the riverside passing a lot of businesses, banks, shops, restaurants, ..... I shall extend my stay for ten more days with discount for sure. It's just a matter of negotiating nicely. Kkkk.

I have stayed here many times now because i like the facility and the staff. We have only booked the double bed private rooms. Small rooms but clean, and private, and perfect for those couple nights in Bangkok you need before heading out to the rest of the country. The staff will help you plan all of your trip if you need that much help, too. Breakfast is good but typically an extra cost (160bht) if you don't get it included in your booking.

I really enjoyed my 5 night stay at Oldtown hostel and by the end did not want to leave. The staff are amazing, so friendly and helpful especially the main man on reception and the night security man (he was my favourite thing about this whole place-most wonderful accomadting and helpful person who is always friendly and smiling). Even though it's not in the centre of all the night life, its not far from anything you need I.e chinatown is a 10 min walk - which is nice because you get to walk around and see the area, the river pier to catch a river taxi is just a 2 min walk away where there is also a riverside mall with lots of shops and restaurants and on the doorstep is a 7/11 and plenty street food sellers, but the staff are also happy do arrange a food delivery to the hostel if you so like. All in all as a solo female traveller and this being my first experience of a hostel, let alone a hostel Thailand, I was more than impressed and I now have high expectations for future accommodation. Would definitely stay here again. P.s Forgot to mention they threw a Halloween party during my stay here and provided plenty free finger food and drink (alcohol included) and lots of games with very good prizes (a smartphone and a free nights accommodation were just to name a few) the staff dressed up and everyone got involved which was a really nice vibe and fun evening.

I had a great stay at the speak easy. It was a great home base for my first few days in Thailand. Aaron and Nitty are super welcoming and helpful. They showed us where to get the best street food and how to order. They are happy to answer lots of questions and taught us some Thai. Free wifi is awesome and the coffee is great. The fact the you are in a neighborhood that's off the tourist track is one of the best parts. The locals are super friendly and helpful and everything is really affordable. And it's super close to the river to get the river taxis to different sites. And a 3 baht ferry ride to Chinatown. Other public transit is pretty easy to get to via tuk tuk or even walking if you are so inclined. You have to like cats but if you do they make the stay even better. They are really sweet and fun. I would definitely stay here again. And in fact a few other travelers have returned for a second stay since I've been here after traveling to other areas.

Tiny Taladnoi Hostel for me is one of the best hostels in Bangkok for female solo travelers like me. Their facilities are great, I feel secure and rooms are always clean. The location is excellent. 10-12 minute walk from Hua Lamphong MRT station where you can connect to BTS and ARL. 2-3 minute walk from Marine Dept. Ferry station which is just about 15-20 minute travel time going to The Grand Place, Wat Arun, & Wat Pho. It is also few steps from a 7/11 and there are vendors right outside the hostel where you can buy street food. The staff are also very friendly and treat you like family. They prepare breakfast and will ask you what's your plan for the day so they can guide you on what transportation to take. I loved my stay with them and will definitely go back...

Not only the location is IDEAL, a short walk away from the BTS metro which will take you to most places in Bangkok, but also the pier where you can take a super cheap boat to get to many landmarks! There is free tea and coffee all day and also access to kettle and microwave so you save some money on food! But the best part is the staff! On the second day of our stay my boyfriend had a seizure whilst in the hostel, the staff ran to help me immediately and called the ambulance for me. The owner appeared in the hospital and acted as a translator for me and didn't leave until I told him to, as I could manage the situation from then on. They are INCREDIBLY friendly and sweet and they will definitely make you feel like home! WIFI and AC work great as well! And you'll have access to a laundry machine which will cost you only 40 BAHT for the whole load! DEFINITELY COULD NOT RECOMMEND THEM MORE!

I booked hostel Urby after a meditation retreat, so coming back to Bangkok was a bit daunting. Hostel Urby was the best choice I made- it sits on the river with a lovely view from the balcony over the city. The Dorms have the perfect cubby hole beds with curtains and ice cold air con (duvet's provided). The common areas are large, bright, clean and modern. I spent two days chilling here in and out of the hostel. There's tea, coffee, cereal and a microwave for making your own foods and drinks which they allow you to bring in. The bathrooms are cleaned every day twice a day and are really nice. The staff are so friendly and welcoming giving advice whenever they can. There's a little bar attached to the hostel with beers and coffee etc. It actually felt really fancy so I'd give 10 stars for Value for money if I could. Next time i'm back in Bangkok i won't look anywhere else, I'm staying here again 100%.

We arrived very early in the morning around 2 am, the staff waiting was very friendly with a big smile on his face. The check-in process was easy and quick. We were shown to our bed, the dormitory was very clean and quiet. The bathroom was amazing and looked beautiful, very clean. The staff were very accommodating and even helped us with lots of helpful information. I would highly recommend this to any traveler with a budget. Great value for money. I will come again.

1. near to majority of attractions in bangkok 2. just book a car/taxi using "Grab Apps or Uber" directly to your preferred destination. or book it to Hua Lamphong MRT(30baht) and take MRT to your destination if you are 1 or 2 person travelling, it will be cheaper. 3. food late at night. I only able find the 7 eleven beside, other closed around 12am. 4. the female lady is great. and the good thing is the lobby is bright always and there will always be somebody in there, so you don feel scary. 5. room not big but it is enough and the design is cool. 6. every morning, some staff will be cleaning the building. 7. definitely will book here again next time.

I chose Glur because of its close proximity to the Chao Praya River and BTS Skyline. I am thoroughly satisfied with the amenities and enjoyed my stay at the place. I've done my own tours in Bangkok, visiting most of the temples and the Grand Palace on my own. The common rooms were chic and I was able to spend time with fellow backpackers. They also allow laundry, and I've managed to do a little after my trip in Siem Reap. The beds are great and I love the big 'capsule' spaces. They also provide for tours in case you have none prior to your trip to Bangkok. Glur is also right beside Bangrak Food Market, should you want to eat Thai where the locals are. They also offer food in their cafe. The staff are also quite helpful, they've helped me with arranging how to use the transit (BTS-MRT line) and how I can change rooms with them. They have no elevators so I imagine it difficult for those who hate stairs. Also, the common areas, at least in the hostel area, only have fans so it is kind of warm during the day. The AC in the rooms are timed, which is understandable since I think no one is there most of the day. Lastly there are some times where there is no hot showers. I've only managed to get one at one cubicle in the shared showers. All in all, I was satisfied with my stay in Glur Bangkok Hostel. It is quite close to important transit points, and close to Shangrila Hotel, Bangrak Market and Robinsons Mall should your taxi/tuktuk/bike not know where it is. It is in a fairly safe location, and it is quiet in the evening so that you can rest well.

I am a first-time visitor to Thailand and my friend and I needed a place to stay. We decided on this place because of the rooftop and we couldn't be happier. the location of the place is right across the street from wat po. we were able to go see the temple and just walk across the street back here to recharge before going back out. Afterwards we were able to buy some street food and enjoy the view on the rooftop while talking about all the awesome things we did during the day. the staff was very friendly and the rooms were very clean and the bathroom was very modern and very clean. I personally enjoy being able to see the sunrise over the temples. if I were to come back to Bangkok I would definitely stay at this place again.

Would 100% recommend this hostel. While the price is slightly more expensive than other hostels (emphasis on slightly), this hostel is worth the higher price. The lobby, hangout area, and cafe area are super nice places to hang out. The hangout area on the 2nd floor even has free snacks, bean bags and a big tv with Netflix. There’s also a really nice communal kitchen which I used to heat up some food I bought earlier in the day. The beds are super private with curtains which I loved. I do have to say that this hostel isn’t really social, but is great if you want a really nice place to chill out like I did. Also, the best part about the hostel is the staff. They’re super friendly and helpful in regards to things to do, where to eat, how to get places etc. My only negative about this hostel is that on my floor at least, there was no ventilation/fan in the shower rooms which means that it feels like a sauna after you’ve showered and are getting changed. Im definitely staying here next time I’m in Bangkok

I highly recommend PAMAhouse; the place is clean, the 2-bedroom family suite is spacious, there is a cute rooftop balcony, where you can stay to rest and relax, there are also convenience stores and noodle places nearby, and most of all the owners are very nice, friendly, and accommodating (special mention to Jang :)). Hence, is easy to say that PAMAhouse felt like our second home during our 4-night stay in Bangkok. Will definitely stay in this place again if I got the chance to be back in Bangkok.

1 minute to walk to bus stop Bus no.1 direct to Wat Pho (Famous Temple in Bangkok) Grand Palace price per trip is less than 10 bath, cheaper & faster than taking BTS or motobike. The bus arrived arround Grand Palace Bus no.15 direct to siam paragon. Bus no. 77 direct to Big C Supermarket. Bus no. 75 direct to Chinatown There are various bus that I don’t have plan to explore. Beside that 10 to 15 minute to walk to Sapha Taksin BTS & pier. Free shuttle boat to ICONSIAM , it is as big as SIAM Paragon, but have nice view when you drink starbuck in this place cause you see a river & ferries pass by. Lots of bar & street food nearby. It’s near to Robinson Bang Rak & Sharila Hotel, so it’s easy for you to ask the bus driver when you lost in Bangkok. Receptionist is very nice.

This renovated traditional Thai-styled home is hosted by a wonderfully gracious lady. Rooms are comfortable and very well kept (with shared but very clean bathrooms and showers). Excellent location to explore Bangkok, Elevated Train Station is a 1 minute walk and the Ferry pier is a 2 minute walk and excellent street food, restaurants and modern shopping mall just minutes away. The hostess is very helpful and even helped find my lost wallet in the middle of the night, not to mention speaks very good English. Excellent hostess, location and value in a well kept traditional Thai house with good taste. Very highly recommended at this price performance! Bang Gaysorn is a little difficult to find. The lodge is located in a very small alley off the main streets where cars cannot pass, which adds to the ambiance but unknown to taxi cab drivers so have the tele-number handy to find. Will definitely come back again!

access to 5 star hotels on riverside. also a short walk to the sleaze of silom, if that is your thing. typical thai cheaper hotel rooms - clean and basic. bbc & nhk on the tv and sometimes cnn. breakfast is simple but filling - brewed coffee, toast, jams, fresh fruit & eggs. also pretty awful juice. the hotel is in a small alley with 3 or 4 cheap indian/pakistani restaurants around it. this is the gem district so there are many from the sub continent staying nearby. the slow progress on the building opposite can make front rooms noisy - ask for a back room. the freeway is closer out back but less noisy than the construction.
