by Marius Peciulaitis Visit Date:February 15, 2012 Room: Service: Facilities: Location: "First thing I noticed was very friendly and helpful staff. I had multiple queries about Thailand and other requests, staff never refused to help Hotel is situated walking (15-20mins) from Khao San road with big sign on the street, easy to find. 50 THB to get by metered Taxi. But there are no good places to eat near the hotel.
Rooms are clean and tidy. Silent as well, although could hear rooster in the morning:) Stayed there for one night, came back for one more night after three weeks. <span style="display:none">[R24 integr.ERR:escaping]</span>" |

by SOFIA Visit Date:January 22, 2011 Room: Service: Facilities: Location: "My husband and I stayed at the hotel twice - from 9 to 14 January, and one day on January 21. Staff greeted us warmly, like old friends. Impression of the hotel were still very good. No misunderstandings during our stay did not arise. There is a laundry service, and perform all very quickly - in the morning we passed the clothes washed, and at 14 h. pm the order was already executed.
There are some minor details: 1) The website states that the hotel has a restaurant on the roof, in fact it is already there does not work - you need to update the information on the site, 2) in the bathroom is very difficult to set up a comfortable temperature of water in the shower, and 3) in the sink it is cold water only, 4) very small amounts of shampoo and shower gel - for two people missing, 5), we do not understand: are in hotel rooms for smokers? - both times we settled in non-smoking rooms.
Overall we liked the hotel and in the future we will also dwell in it. <span style="display:none">[R24 integr.ERR:escaping]</span>" |
by SOFIA Visit Date:January 14, 2011 Room: Service: Facilities: Location: "My husband and I stayed at the hotel from 9 to 14 January and were very pleased. The perfect location, clean rooms, windows overlook a courtyard with a cafe. Bed linen and cleaning is done every day. The room has everything you need. Friendly staff, always ready to help. I liked that there is a service luggage storage. We left Bangkok after a week in Pattaya, and things are not essential to have left the hotel before coming back. The hotel is within walking distance (15 minutes walk) from Kaosan Road, as well as the Royal Palace and other attractions. Located in a quiet area, at night was nothing to prevent recreation. Compliance with quality and price. <span style="display:none">[R24 integr.ERR:escaping]</span>" |

by wilailak khandee Visit Date:February 6, 2010 Room: Service: Facilities: Location: "Hotel is isolated. rooms are tiny. photos make it look alot more impressive than it is. security staff nice and friendly. Had an issue with breakfast and got charged 850 baht for taxi to airport.. very steep" |
by Irina Ladynskaya Visit Date:August 9, 2009 Room: Service: Facilities: Location: "Clean hotel.
Standard room we were offered upon arrival was very tiny, I insisted on a bigger one and changed it.
Do not expect much from breakfast, it is a-la carte, but the choice is quite limited.
Wi-fi does not work in rooms as it was advertised and expected. Hotel provides free internet cards because of wi-fi lack, but it does not much change the situation." |
by Julia Elizabeth Cooper Visit Date:August 6, 2009 Room: Service: Facilities: Location: "This hotel is great for a central location in Bangkok. Very friendly staff, clean rooms and good service. I would recommend this hotel to all. Thank you Best Western Swana." |

Always smooth and easy. :), December 16, 2008 by Line Jorgensen Visit Date:November 23, 2008 "We had a deluxe, and the room itself was nicely decorated, so no problems there. Breakfast was a little dull, but one could argue that should not be the deal breaker.
Only thing is that you can hear everything that goes on on the street, in the back alley, on the stairs and in all of the rooms around you. We couldn t sleep the first night because of loud conversation and laughing from the next door room. Next evening the TV was on really loudly, so we spoke to reception and got another room. Still, I would rather live at for example CK House Bali Suite, which is in Sathorn and which we have used before... and wish we had used this time. <span style="display:none">[R24 integr.ERR:escaping]</span>" |
October 6, 2008 by Feifei Visit Date:September 29, 2008 "My boyfriend insisted that I should comment and recommend. This is a cozy hotel, not far away from the river, the canal from which you can take boat to the sightseeing places. It s within walking distance to Kaoshan Rd. where backpackers love, but hotel itself hides in a local neighbourhood, you have the foodstands, wat where locals go to. Room is clean and large enough, shower is fine, A/C is just sometimes too strong, as it only has 4 floors, there is no elevator. The rate is good according to my Chinese standard. Reception is very nice. All in all, we are quite satisfied with the stay." |
good booking service, September 23, 2008 by Carl Webb Visit Date:September 10, 2008 "good clean quiet hotel.we had the deluxe room" |
