Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is in a convenient Chinatown location, very close to the main train station, making it easy to reach Suvarnabhumi airport. The rooms are comfortable, but some face dark alleys. The service is average, but the hotel offers tour assistance. The dining includes freshly prepared eggs. Overall, it's a decent choice for budget travelers.
My stay at the hotel was excellent. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the staff was very friendly. The location was vibrant in Chinatown near Yoawarat Road, perfect for experiencing the local vibe and street food. However, walking alone at night in the dark alleys around the hotel could be unsettling. The dining experience was fantastic with delicious included sushi options, but the facilities were just decent.
The hotel is situated in the vibrant Chinatown next to Yaowarat Road, offering a unique location full of life. The service is on point, especially with attentive housekeeping and available tours and ticket assistance. The dining includes poached eggs, although the options could be more varied. Overall, a place with character and charm worth exploring.
The hotel is nestled in vibrant Chinatown, right next to Yaowarat Road, offering an authentic stay with just a little window view. The service was excellent, but the alleyways around the hotel may feel unsafe at night.
