Hotel Details

Location

Located in Old Bangkok, within 10-15 minutes' walk of the Giant Swing, Golden Mountain Temple, Grand Palace, and Khao San Road.

The property sits in a quiet lane within the historic Rattanakosin district, placing most major temples within walking distance. The MRT Sam Yot station (Blue Line) is a 10-minute walk away, providing direct metro access across the city and connections to Suvarnabhumi Airport via the Airport Rail Link. Hua Lamphong train station is 15 minutes by car or 35 minutes on foot. Several Michelin-recommended restaurants, street food stalls, and a 7-Eleven are within 5 minutes' walk. The surrounding area is safe and includes a police station nearby, though some side streets feel quieter at night. Taxis are available directly outside the hotel.

Dining

An on-site coffee bar serves breakfast and lunch from 07:00 to 14:00, offering hot coffee, fruit juice, American breakfast, and Thai/European dishes.

The coffee bar provides four breakfast options priced at 120 THB, available daily. The menu includes American breakfast as well as local Thai and European choices, making it a convenient and affordable start to the day. There is also a vending machine with drinks and snacks available 24/7. For more variety, a 7-Eleven and several street food stalls are within a 5-minute walk, and Michelin-recommended restaurants such as Raan Jay Fai and Thip Samai are within 0.5 km. The surrounding area offers many local eateries.

Wellness and Leisure

A salt-water outdoor swimming pool is open year-round, and a compact fitness centre with multi-purpose machines overlooks the pool.

The pool is a key feature, described as clean, refreshing, and of good size - though it receives limited direct sunlight and can become crowded in the afternoon. The adjacent small gym includes basic weight and cardio equipment, a practical bonus for maintaining a workout routine. The shared lounge on the ground floor offers board games, darts (free), beanbags, and books, creating a social space for relaxation. The garden area next to the pool has about six sun loungers. The pool operates from 07:00-20:00 and is also usable before checkout or after check-in without charge.

Facilities and Services

Free Wi-Fi in rooms, free private parking (reservation not possible), 24-hour front desk, and a self-service laundry room.

The 24-hour reception team can assist with luggage storage (free for check-in and after checkout), taxi booking, and local recommendations. Self-service laundry is available for 30 THB per load - only one washer and dryer are on site. A shared kitchenette provides a microwave, kettle, and iron available to borrow. The property has a lift, is wheelchair accessible, and enforces a no-pets policy. Security features include 24-hour CCTV, key card access, smoke alarms, and fire extinguishers. Payment can be made by Visa, MasterCard, or UnionPay credit card.
