STABLE LODGE - SHA CERTIFIED, Bangkok

The hotel is situated on a relatively quiet side street (Soi 8) just off the bustling Sukhumvit Road, placing it within easy reach of nightlife, shopping, and dining. Numerous restaurants, bars, and shops line the soi, and the BTS Skytrain (Nana station) is only 200 metres away, providing direct connections to Siam, Asok, and other central areas. The area is lively at night but the hotel itself maintains a calm atmosphere. For those driving, free on-site parking is available but limited. The airport is reachable by taxi in about 40 minutes under normal traffic conditions.

Rooms are basic but functional, featuring air conditioning, satellite television, a minibar, and a private bathroom with shower. Each room has a balcony - some with pool views (Deluxe rooms) and most with outdoor seating. While the furniture and decor show signs of age, the beds are consistently reported as comfortable. Some rooms may have noise from the street or neighbouring air conditioning units, so requesting a room overlooking the pool is recommended for a quieter stay. Lighting in certain rooms can be dim for reading; bringing a personal reading light may help. Mosquito screens on windows can be imperfect; using repellent is advisable. No coffee or tea making facilities are provided in the room.

The on-site restaurant, Stable Lodge Restaurant, offers a menu of Danish, Swedish, and Norwegian specialities alongside Thai favourites. Meals can be enjoyed on the terrace next to the pool, creating a relaxed garden atmosphere. Breakfast is available from 07:00 to 11:00 but is not included in the room rate; guests order and pay directly at the restaurant. The restaurant also operates as a bar with Carlsberg on tap. Note that the restaurant and hotel are separate entities, so all food and drink charges must be settled at the restaurant with cash or card, and cannot be billed to the room. A 10% service charge and 7% tax are added to menu prices.

Practical amenities include free Wi-Fi available in all areas, a 24-hour front desk, a tour desk for arranging excursions, and a business centre with fax/photocopying. Luggage storage is available at no extra charge for guests arriving early or departing late. The hotel has a lift (elevator) providing access to all floors. On-site parking is free but limited; motorbike parking is available. Security features include CCTV, key card access, and 24-hour security. Pets are not allowed. Accepted payment methods are Visa, Diners Club, and MasterCard.
