We had an absolutely fantastic experience at this place! After exploring Khao San Road, we came back here craving a quiet and relaxing meal—and it was perfect. The atmosphere was peaceful and inviting, making it the ideal spot to unwind. The food was out of this world—our group ordered satay skewers, fried spring rolls, Penang curry, green curry, and stir-fried rice with green curry. Every dish was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully balanced. The green curry especially stood out—it was aromatic, rich, and just the right level of spice. The staff were friendly and attentive, adding to the wonderful vibe. This hidden gem is a must-try for anyone visiting Bangkok looking for great food and a calm retreat after a busy day.
We were warmly welcomed late at night, and the check-in process was smooth and friendly. The room was spacious and spotlessly clean—perfect for a relaxing stay. Breakfast was excellent, with a great variety of options and fresh, tasty food. What truly surprised us was the pool—it’s rare to find one in a Bangkok city hotel, and it’s surprisingly well-designed, though more geared toward children. Still, it added a nice touch to our experience. Overall, we had an amazing time here—great service, excellent value, and a very pleasant atmosphere. Definitely worth staying again!
Located right in the heart of Khaosan Road, this place is unbeatable for location—super convenient for hopping on the metro to get around Bangkok or heading to the airport. I was a bit worried about noise from the busy street, but surprisingly, the room was much quieter than expected thanks to good soundproofing. The vibe is modern and cozy with a clean, minimalist Korean-inspired design—soft lighting, stylish touches, and a really welcoming feel. The bathroom is a highlight: spacious, well-organized, and fully separated into dry and wet zones, which makes it super practical. It’s amazing how much value you get for the price—perfect for backpackers or anyone looking for a comfortable, no-fuss stay. I’d definitely book here again on my next trip to Bangkok.
The hotel is beautifully located in a safe and clean neighborhood, with everything nearby—perfect for exploring Bangkok on foot. The room is compact but well-designed, especially the bathroom which feels spacious and comfortable. While the price is slightly higher than average, it's justified by the excellent location, cleanliness, and overall experience. It’s definitely worth the investment if you're looking for a quiet, authentic stay in the heart of the city.
I was extremely disappointed with my stay at this property. The cleanliness was appalling—bed linens were visibly dirty and caused severe itching after sleeping on them. Despite reporting the issue, the response was slow and unsatisfactory, and even getting a full refund took much longer than expected. The overall condition of the rooms suggested years without proper cleaning. The location near the river is nice in theory, but the surrounding area is noisy and unclean. It's hard to believe such a place made it onto any booking platform, especially given the lack of basic hygiene standards. I’d strongly advise travelers to think twice before choosing this hotel—your experience could be just as frustrating as mine.
Staying at The Printing House Poshtel in Bangkok was an absolute highlight of my trip. Located just a 10-minute walk from the Grand Palace and Khao San Road, it’s incredibly convenient for exploring the city center without needing to rely on transport. The hostel is spotlessly clean with well-maintained facilities—each bed comes with a privacy curtain, offering a good balance between social atmosphere and personal space. I appreciated that breakfast was included, with four different options available; while not gourmet, they were satisfying and filling. The vibe here is very much geared toward international travelers, especially Europeans, making it easy to strike up conversations and share travel tips. Great location, excellent value, and a welcoming atmosphere—this place truly stands out. I’d definitely come back and recommend it to anyone looking for a fun, affordable, and authentic Bangkok experience.
