Baan Tepa Boutique House

Khaosan Road Bangkok|0.8km from Chang Ton (Royal Elephant) National Museum
I originally booked for 2 nights, now been here 5, never want to leave, and have eaten some of the best food I've ever eaten in my life... breakfasts are 3 courses, different every day, and more like lunch or dinner. Ung is an amazing cook, and her and her husband Tak are lovely hosts. Yesterday's green curry with chicken & baby aubergines was better than the one in the Netflix streetfood doc, her barbecued pork melts in the mouth and is better than the juiciest bacon you've ever eaten, her Tom yum koong delicious, and how she can make a prawn omelette so fluffy and taste so wonderful is beyond me. And that was only 2 days of food (not to mention the desserts). The place itself is beautiful, calm, spotless - an old Thai wooden house, 2 stories, painted cream and green, with dark, polished wooden floors, full of interesting objects and beautiful old sepia photographs. My room has a little balcony with climbing pink jasmine and more that looks into the quiet alley and at night it smells heavenly. There's a fridge in the hallway with an endless supply of water in glass bottles, saving on money AND plastic. The courtyard is a little green paradise and I can hear at least 3 different kinds of birds and a gecko as I write this over the Tom yum koong. WiFi is fast, I have AC, an electric shower, the room is cute, big, though I know some of the others are quite small. I could quite happily live here for the rest of my life. The area is peaceful and safe. It's a five minute walk from Thewes Pier and a short ferry ride to both sky train and metro, a 10 minute bus ride from chatuchak market, 15 min walk from Khao San road (go once for a look, don't go back), and if you like a longer walk like me, to burn off the breakfast, the royal palace and Chinatown are about 45 mins to an hour on foot. There's a local market close by, at least three 7-11s within spitting distance, a local restaurant round the corner which is not bad but not up to Ung's standards, and at night a long chain of food stands along the canal that I've yet to try. If you're looking for party central this may not be your best choice but please don't look it over for the sake of a flat screen TV you can watch from bed. You could not regret coming here. And if you did, I'd say there was something not quite right about you. I love this place. Thank you Ung and Tak for making me so welcome.

Khaosan Road
We chose this hotel as it has triple room and is a heritage boutique hotel in the old town district. It is also reasonably priced. It is indeed a cosy heritage building with nice hardwood flooring in the room. The room is simple, clean and spacious for three, all TV channels seem to be in Thai. There are little nice details like folding the towels into cute elephants and provision of tea and coffee in the dining area all- day. What’s impressive with the hotel is its warm hospitality especially displayed by Sherry who has taken time to explain about the house and also to recommend us a nice half day tour which we didn’t think of at first. She also arranged to pack breakfast for us, and the morning staff was thoughtful to ensure we are safely onboard the tour van. I would recommend this hotel especially for visits to historic spots like the palace and also to the trendy Kaoshan Road area. There is also a pier nearby for easy access by boat transport.

Very good service attitude English communication is very convenient and a little Chinese. The environment is very clean and very relaxing. There is a swimming pool. The only drawback is that the sound of the motorcycle outside the window is a bit loud but does not affect It's midnight when I entered the house.
Sawatdee Guesthouse the Original

My partner and I stayed here in January. It was our first accommodation in Thailand and we enjoyed it. Our room was basic and I felt like it would of been cheaper however all the facilities were in working order. Checkin was simple, quick and easy. Interesting colour choices in our premium room. Breakfast wasn’t included but we had breakfast at the guesthouse everyday without fail! I would recommend a breakfast smoothie too! Very tasty! There is a temple literally a two minute walk away which is well worth a visit!
