Silom Avenue Inn

I liked the personnel, people were really helpful. especially the receptionist who presented herself as “B.” was very attentive to customer: always when I asked simple questions about getting from A to B she was drawing maps, shared the number in case I get lost (though not necessary for me), explained all with details. Also they spoke really good English. I knew I was traveling to a non-English speaking country and I didn’t expect much, but here I was positively surprised. The room was well maintained and I liked its colors and decor. So as for this price it even exceeded my expectations. Location is awesome, not only because it’s close to the (in)famous quarter of nightlife in Bangkok, but first of if it’s close to the street market and any time of the day or night I was able to taste some delicious food. The hotel was offering breakfasts too, but rather European-American style. First I thought it was a disadvantage, being in the middle of a buzzling Thai district, but after traveling much solo in Thailand later, I would appreciate the alternative given (a European tourist might start missing home food sometimes). So yes, this was actually a plus.

Overall all the facilities were excellent. Specially, the room size, mattress and bed quality, pillows, and the toilet. I am very satisfied and will recommend it happily.

Management is very serious about fixed (No change) 2PM checkin. Extra cost for earlier checkin time.

Location is prime, maybe 10mins walk to Surasak BTS station. One of the few cheap hotels among high end hotels in the area. A lot of restaurants and amenities nearby such as 7E, massage, spa.

The hotel is a bit old but good for a short stay with the price.
