Find hotels in The National Museum Bangkok

First of all, this hotel is very luxury at a budget price. Most budget hotels in Thailand have outdated furnishings and wall hangings, but every inch of this hotel is clean, well-maintained, very luxury looking. The staff is outstanding and there is a doorman or other staff about every 20 meters of the hotel. Check-in and check-out was fast, and we even got fast service when we needed an extra room card. I mention this because I read many horror story reviews on here before we booked the place. I only saw crowds in the reception area when a bus came in (which there were many - its one of the biggest hotels in Bangkok). The breakfast was outstanding. You can eat in the cafe, which has outdoor dining, or the upstairs restaurant. Both have the same food, so it depends if want a city view with your breakfast, or some fresh morning air. The Thai restaurant at the top of the hotel wasn't very impressive. The food was bland and overpriced. We live in Northeast Thailand, so maybe we are spoiled. The best part of the hotel was the room. We stayed in a 3-bedroom suite, which was a mini-apartment. It actually looks like the hotel bought a condo building next door and turned the condos into rooms. The beds were comfortable, everything was clean and new, and there was lots of space. We actually only needed 2-bedrooms, but the upgrade price was so cheap we went with 3-bedrooms. The suites have their own lobby, elevators, and secured parking. If you want to go shopping, which was the primary reason we stayed at this hotel (the kids needed clothes for school), there is a 6-floor fashion mall below the hotel. Its the place to get good, low priced clothes (6th floor has a food court). If you want to save even more money, get up at 3am and walk outside. From 3-6am, the streets around the hotel hold the largest clothes wholesale market in SE Asia. Hundreds of sellers line the streets selling every kind of clothes you can think of. We saved 70% on school clothes this year.

New hotel and most staff are very eager to please. The staff member at the entrance who looks after luggage and transport is commendable. He is polite, pleasant, sincere and has an eye for details. Taxi by the meter to BKK airport was only 270 + 75 (toll) on a Sunday afternoon. Stonethrow from the National Museum which was our purpose for an overnight in Bangkok. Rooftop pool is small but considering this is not a 5/6 starred resort, it is a precious feature. After check out, we spent time by the canal on the restaurant balcony sipping fresh young coconut which was bliss. Bed was most comfortable and bathroom very roomy.

We’ve stayed in Bangkok 10 plus times and I’d say for the price this is the best hotel in the location we like to be. The swimming pool is perfect especially if you have young children as the children’s pool is a good size, my daughter wanted to stay at the hotel pool all day everyday!! The breakfast was good, usual Asian Choice, no complaints. The rooms are a good size considering your in a city and bigger then most in the locality. We are traveling back to bk on our way back and most likely re book this hotel again. I would recommend.

To be honest, I wasn't expecting much when I was booking to stay right on Khao San road. I was only staying for one night so I wanted to be close to the action of bars, markets and good food. I wouldn't recommend this is you were staying for a week or so, the busyness and haggling could get a bit. However, this was perfect for a short stopover for a couple of nights. Walk down stairs and the street is packed from mid afternoon only getting fuller into the night with food stalls, shopping, massages, and bars. I was surprised with the standard of the interior, this is something I'm fairly particular about. The hotel room was huge with a giant four poster king bed in the middle. Everything was very clean and nice. I had read reviews on this hotel being loud, my room was the very last room in the hallway right on Khao San road. I heard the music start at about 3pm. When I returned for bed at 11 I could hear it quite well but once I popped some ear plugs in, I slept like a baby. I would definitely go back to this hotel. I had such a great experience in bangkok due to booking this hotel in this location.

To be honest I was baffled. Some of the reviews said it was tired, wasn't a four star, poor facilities.... We thought the taxi driver had the wrong hotel as we arrived and the bell-man opened our door. Check in was easy. The pool was great to swim (I mean big enough - obviously pools are for swimming). There were plenty of loungers around for sun bathing. I did the insanity workout in the gym on my iPad and I was the only one in there. The staff were helpful, hotel was spotless and I would genuinely say we will come here again and tell all our friends. Only trade off is there isn't an easy restaurant to walk to. There is a 7-11 across the street but it closes about 4pm! But it wasn't a problem for us and the restaurant wasn't too badly priced. The wifi is strong in the room. You get an hour free and can pay for more. We debated the virtues of this as a couple. My fiancée is an avid googler and had a small period of adjustment....but if you're savvy, disciplined and log in and out every time you finish the specific task, download emails and read off line etc, then we found we could get by. One final comment is about the taxi to the airport. They charge you a fixed price of 500bht. This was mentioned in several reviews as somekind of conspiracy! Well it costs the driver 100bht each way in tolls and takes 45 mins to an hour depending on traffic. We had to sort our visa a few days before so made the same trip having hailed a metered taxi and then had to barter a price as meters are for trips within central Bangkok and they wanted to charge 600 bht. We got it for 500 in the end but then booked with the hotel for our 6am departure to save the hassle - taxi was there waiting for us and the bell-man carried our bags!! Thanks for a great experience.

Nanda is the nicest hotel we could have found in Bangkok. For a very nice price you get to stay in a calm area but walking distance from khao san and all the buzz... we walked several times, tuk tuk is about 50 baht which is close to nothing. As an architect, I was overwhelmed by the design and beauty of the hotel. Interesting design books in the lobby... A week before staying here we stayed in a 5 star hotel in Sukumvit, which was double the price, in a huge skyscraper, but we enjoyed staying in Nanda wayyyy more. Staff is amazing, helpful, pretty good english ( which is not common in Bangkok). We are coming back to Bangkok this year and we will stay in Nanda again.

We moved from a much nicer hotel because we were so far away from the places we wanted to visit. As the taxi approached the hotel the area degenerated and it began to look like skid row. The side walks were covered with trash, there were people sleeping in doorways and a man in pants and socks was staggering down the street barely staying on his feet. As we entered the hotel through a small space between two of the fleet of buses parked at the curb we encountered several hundred hungry Chinese tourists creating a deafening clatter as they devoured their lunches beneath chandeliers decorated with faded plastics flowers. I turned to my companion and said, "Oh my god what have we done?" The Royal Hotel isn't for royalty so if your looking for sumptuous luxury keep looking. The Royal is more like a beloved old pair of bedroom slippers that have seen better days but are too comfortable to part with. We were deeply disappointed as we did our initial survey of the room and wondered if we should stay. We opted to stay and the next day when we got back to our room housekeeping had done such a nice job we started to warm up to the place. The hotel is so close to so many attractions we walked everywhere during our four day stay. The hotel has a funky ambience that reminds me of The Phoenix in San Francisco. This was my 3rd visit to Bangkok and by far the most enjoyable because of the proximity to the National Museum, National Theatre, National Gallery, Grand Palace, Golden Mount, so many of the temples, and the Cafe Velo Dome coffee house. I was once again reminded not to put too much stock in a first impression. We will definitely stay there on our next visit!

Good location , upon arrival we were upgraded for free to the premium room. This hotel is right in the middle of Khaosan road, straight outside of the hotel are many places to eat and drink including local street food. Plenty of shops and stalls selling souvenuiers, electronics , clothes etc ... be prepared to haggle for a good price! The hotel was clean and staff were friendly. very good value for money considering the price we paid for this room (£ gbp per night). There is a rooftop pool which we did not use but you can see views of the grand palace from up there. Room was cleaned daily. Cable tv with various channels to cater for all nationalities. complimentary water provided each day. Mini Bar (chargable but very cheap) ... there is also a mini-mart right at the hotel enterance. There is a coffee shop in the hotel reception area which also sells breakfast and snacks very reasonably priced and tasty! Depending where your room is facing you may hear the noise of music etc from the road - however if you are staying on Khaosan road you have to expect this ... plus the cocktails sold outside help you to sleep!! The only bad point about this hotel was the shower - it was more of a wet room with just a curtain so the floor tends to get a bit wet... overall this was a minor issue.

it's really a good place. the room looks pretty good with a small balcony, and i lived in a cornor of this hotel so i gladly enjoyed a quiet environment there. the location there is very very nice, it's easy to go to the grand palace and national museum, and u may have a wonderful night life nearby. ps, the only problem is there is no subway station around, u'd better prepare a map with u. anyway, highly recommend it!

This is actually one of the nicest hotels I have stayed in Southeast Asia. It is quite new and the owners have placed great detail in its design. It is in a quite neighbourhood but very close to Khaosan road where there are many restaurants and pubs. I stayed in Khao San Road the previous time I was in BKK and the noise made it impossible to sleep, hence this is actually a perfect alternative. I also walked to the Royal Barges Museum, which is around 45 minutes away across the river by ferry. The Royal Palace and the National Museum are also close by. So all in all, an excellent choice.

Thank you Chillax for a wonderful hotel experience! Chillax is in the perfect location - 10 minute walk to all the action near Khao San and a 10 minute walk to the river. The hotel decor is beautiful and feels very luxurious. The room was beautiful, the bed was super comfortable and we had the best sleep we had in Thailand. The bath is a dream and the pool was one of the main reasons we wanted to stay and it was amazing, we had the whole pool to ourselves a couple of times. The staff were all lovely and incredibly helpful. The massages were on offer when we were there so they we really competitive prices and the location was much more conducive to relaxation (than having a massage on the street nearby). We would definitely book again if heading to Bangkok.

Let me start with the good, I really did enjoy my stay here. It's in a unique location and the land has a neat history. The hotel itself is very scenic. Staff are friendly and try their best to facilitate your needs. The rooms are very well priced and I'd gladly recommend this hotel to anyone. All my complaints are relatively minor. When I arrived it turned out that my booking was mixed up somehow, instead of one bed for us the request on their end said two beds. No idea why, my PDF booking said one large bed. Then they asked my wife if her name was Jennifer (it's not). Later had my wife asking "Who's Jennifer?" The water was never hot, just warm. When I asked the cleaning lady to give my wife and me 2 minutes, she said okay and just never cleaned the room. The sound on the TV didn't work for 2 days, after the first day a maintenance man was sent to check it but I have no idea what came of that because when we returned that day it still wasn't working. All and all, we loved our stay.

RIkka Inn was the perfect place to stay! If you are interested in being near all the action of Khao San Road- this is it! However, this place was surprisingly very quiet- The hotel was right in the middle of Khao San Road but kind of set back in a way and it seemed as though most rooms were away from the street noises. I stayed there 2 nights at the beginning of my trip and one night at the very end of the trip and was glad i did. Great reception- we were to arrive at 11pm but didnt arrive till 4am due to flight delay- this wasn't a problem- our room was basic, but extremely clean and had a unique feeling (interesting decor)- comfortable beds- Most showers in Thailand were like the ones at Rikka Inn- a shower that is in the bathroom directly over the toilet- so you pretty much get the entire bathroom wet -dont forget to remove the toilet paper! Kind of annoying but we found this standard unless you are at a fancy hotel/resort where there are more western style showers- But good water pressure/hot water- excellent rooftop pool/showers/bathroom- We used on our last day and they held our bags for us for the day (20 baht/day) since we had a late departure out of Bangkok- Just outside of reception is a adorable coffee shop- some of the best i had in Bangkok- and delicious breakfast sandwiches/fruit- 7-11 also right there for any other needs as well- If you are looking to stay on Khao San Road this is absolutely the place!!! 100% recommended

We stayed for three nights at SSIP, a very cute boutique hotel in Bangkok, very close to the pier (10min walk). Only but was comming back from the center, after a tiring day you expect to go back quick and easy by taxi... but taxis refuse to turn the meter on and want to charge double. Be patient and wait for a honest taxi driver, or if you dont mind paying a bit more... try to bargain (they will ask you for 300BAHT no matter where, you tell them "last night by meter I pay 100, but Ill give you 150..."). Other than that this hotel is a hidden gem.

Our stay at the New Siam Palace View was our second place we booked in Thailand. I'll will write all the details and our experience as best as possible. At arriving at the New Siam Palace View, we check-in at midday for our 3 night stay. The staff was very nice, friendly and very helpful. They ask for our passport to get a copy and 500 baht, a refundable amount. Just a security deposit in case the person breaks something or something is missing from the room. They gave us our passports back, the key to our room, a few vouchers for fruit shakes and two vouchers with the Wi-Fi information. The Wi-Fi worked perfectly. Never had a problem with it. We then went to our room and it was small, comfortable and the A/C took a few minutes to cool the room but after that it was very nice. The view from our balcony was, well, old buildings. No river view and the balcony was very small. We didn't care about that. The bathroom was basic but with everything we needed. It had a closet with a safe, tv, a small desk with mirror and a fridge with cold water bottles. After eating so much Thai food we decided to give a try to their breakfast and it did not disappoint at all. It was very good and their fruit shakes are good also. You can get a good breakfast at the lobby for 100 or 200 baht. For us, the location was excellent because it was very close the Khao San Road but really quiet. It was peaceful at night. You couldn't hear any noise from Khao San Road at all. So if you want a place to get a good night sleep but be near all the action this is the place. There is a shortcut to get to the Khao San Road from the hotel and while you are at it you will walk through local markets, stores and restaurants. The other reason we like this location was because it's close to all the temples, landmarks and touristic spots that are nearby so that's a big plus for us. Many of the reviews do mention the construction going on at the hotel. Yes, it is true. They are doing some renovations and imp

We stayed here 1 night in November before flying from Bangkok. The room is great, very authentic and characteristic. Comfy bed, good air con and wifi. The staff really helped us, calling 2 hotels in Koh Lanta for us to help track down a missing wallet, which we would have struggled so much doing ourselves. They also organised our taxi back to the airport. There are free towels to use for the pool. The location is the best thing about this hotel; it's right by Khao San Road but very quiet in the hotel, also opposite a 7/11. There was no balcony in the room, and it was impossible to get a pool sun lounger as very busy. Didn't eat breakfast so not sure about that. Other than that very nice hotel!

If you are overnighting in Bangkok & don't need to go sightseeing but want peace, relaxation, food & a really nice spacious room with aircon, this hotel rocks! I arrived at Subha international exhausted at 6am after a 12 hr journey from London with no Thai money. A friendly guard in the airport directed me to the free hourly shuttle bus to Don Muang international airport. The journey took about an hour & once at Don Muang, there is a dedicated lift in the terminal taking you to the covered airway crossing the highway straight into the Amari hotel. This hotel is an absolute bargain at the price if purchasing in European money. Huge, peaceful rooms, very nicely furnished (european 4 star) lovely bathrooms & an onsite restaurant serving a mix of cuisines & a good fun sports bar type pub on site also open late. The pool & pool area is lovely & overall this place was just ideal for my needs. About 5pm after a few hours sleep I had relaxing swim, beer in the bar & then took the hotel's free shuttle bus to the local night market - nothing at all you'd want to buy there but fascinating none the less - & the market is next to a mall which is packed with good, inexpensive Thai, Korean, Japanese restaurants. the shuttle bus picks you up at a pre arranged time. Will return.

Nice location, we can state only positive things about the hotel. Moreover, for what you get it was very cheap! The breakfast is very, very nice (Thai and Continental) and you can sit outside to enjoy it!!! The pool was great for us, since we like to swim. We used it after sightseeing in Bangkok, in the evening we were swimming and this was really luxiourous for us. The rooms are nice and clean. Nearby is a nice temple (standing buddha). First when we came to the hotel we were a little bit confused, because the first impression of the surrounding was not so nice. But in the end we attapted very well, we were walking a lot and there are several things you can make by walking distance... chao phraya river, kho san road,.... ect. Enjoy your stay! Bangkok is incredible city!

this was our 2nd hotel in bangkok and it was a great decision to stay at this as the location was spot on. it was a 1 min walk to khaosan so while the location was great, we still got peace and quiet at night. there were plentiful restaurants and bars around and the hotel had a view of the grand palace. there are many travel agents close by to book tours and day trips. will definitely recommend to travelers looking for fun in bangkok without seedy surroundings.

New Siam II is our Bangkok Go-To. It is across the street from The river, so the prices are lower than those at its sister property, New Siam Riverview. If you want a balcony with chairs and a view, go there. But for our m needs, the small balcony with a peek over the pool suffices just fine. There is an elevator, a restaurant/bar, laundry service, and they keep the pool nice and cool-- perfect for a dip after sweating your way around the neighborhood. Two doors down from a fantastic noodle shop and within walking distance of tons of coffee shops and street food vendors. Nearby Rambuttri provides with all the elephant-pant watching and cheap t-shirt buying you can hope for/stand. The staff is extremely professional, always friendly, communicate well, and are excellent hosts. They provide on-site travel arrangements as well.

I'd say this place exceeded my expectations, I've stayed in some boutique hotels which, while having great decor and facilities, still feel like a "hotel". But the atmosphere and staff at Bangkok Publishing Residence give you a very cozy and intimate feeling, while the overall decor and amenities feel luxurious but not pretentious. I especially love the rooftop garden where they grow the most delicious salad I've had in years! I'll surely comeback the next time I'm in Bangkok!

I stayed at this hotel last May 13 to May 17, 2018. I arrived late around 1:30 am, check in was smooth but I was placed in the 4th floor even I requested a lower floor cause of my surgery on my knee. I was told that all the rooms were booked and they would move me the following. The following day I met Magali, I guess she was the owner and she moved me to the 2nd level. She was very thoughful and help me how to get around Bangkok. Her customer service was exceptional where she even surprised me with a cake during my birthday which was greatly appreciated. I was very pleased of my stay at Khaosan Art Hotel and I would very much recommend this place. Only cons is bed is a little bid hard, other than that it was a wonderful stay. I also missed their Pizza, I heard they have the best pizza in town.

Was traveling with my significant other and we absolutely loved the hotel! The location is great! It’s right by the democracy monument so giving directions when taking a tuk-tuk or cab was easy, Khao San road and the golden mountain are just a few blocks away, and we quickly learned our was around the area. The staff was incredibly friendly and did a wonderful job of making us feel welcomed. Everything was kept very clean and the housekeepers came by daily to tidy up our room, empty the trash bins, and give us fresh towels. They stocked the room with toothpaste, toothbrushes, shampoo, body wash, q-tips, and more! Our room also had a mini fridge which was very convenient and we used it to keep our many bottles of water cold. We also loved that we could easily control the temperature in our room with a very nice air conditioning system. The only reason it doesn’t get a 5 Star for facilities is because there are a few minor inconveniences, but nothing big enough to ruin our stay! The main inconvenience was the fact that the toilet is extremely close to the sink. I am 5’6 and my boyfriend is 6’0 and we were hitting our knees on the sink every rim we had to go to the bathroom.
