Guest reviews for The Backpack Hostel

"Toilet very clean, staffs are friendly and helpful, no breakfast provide but free water and coffee, location in front of a local market and not far from coffee shop, Chinese restaurant, convinient store (7 Eleven), also near the Ferry Pier which you can easy to take trip to ICONSIAM, Wat Arun, Wat Pho. Take a Grab to Chinatown just 45 Baht ($1.5USD). Great place to stay for short days travel."

"What a nice little hostel in the middle of it all! Across the road from a very local market, with plenty of stands for food & fruit, at walking distance from one of the major piers on the river! But the best of all is the kind lady running the hostel."

"Los dueños son fantásticas personas todo el tiempo intentando ayudar y cuidando la limpieza. Hay café, fruta y galletitas disponibles todo el tiempo para los viajeros. Las camas son muy cómodas, con luz y taquilla con llave. En la habitación hay aire acondicionado funcionando todo el tiempo y la ubicación me gusta mucho porque está a unos 20' andando de Chinatown y es una zona bastante tranquila. Es la segunda vez que me alojo aquí y sin duda volveré. Gracias por todo The backpack hostel sois hogar 🙏🏻💫🇪🇦 👉🏻🇹🇭"

"Personalen var verkligen supertrevlig och hjälpsam trots att de inte kunde engelska. Vi fick checka in tidigare utan att behöva betala något extra."

"Det enda negativa var att det låg lite avsides"

Guest reviews

"Nice, quite safe 4-star hotel. Comfortable and clean rooms, courteous and helpful staff, good security, excellent breakfast and cafe. I enjoyed the location, but the customer should be aware that it’s near a RLD, which can affect your opinion. You don’t get any noise, however, because the hotel is built 100 m back from the bars, with structures in between blocking the noise."

Avis de Robert Maison Hotel Bangkok

"My homestay was a blissful retreat – a cozy room, a garden escape, and reliable internet. Simple rules, plus scooter and bicycle options, made it stress-free. The hosts' warmth, coffee chats, and VIP-like care made it feel like a REALY home away from home. Organizing your trips and giving you a ride to the next spot? Pure hospitality magic. A solid 10 out of 10 for a stay that went beyond expectations, leaving you with cherished memories and a heart full of gratitude! Cheers to an exceptional experience!"

"Just adorable little place not far away from centre. Peaceful and quiet. Very clean room."

Avis de Harri หมื่นช้างน่านบูทีคHotel

"The folks in charge of this hotel have a very very cute/smiling baby. It was definately something that added to my stay. The pool was small, but clean and a nice amenity at the end of a long walking day. The hotel is outside the old town, but close enough to be easily walkable. We were delighted when we saw the room, better than the pictures and the area around the breakfast room is treed and comfortable."
