We came with expectations of this being a very personal experience given prior reviews and fact it was a home. Sadly this was not the case and in fact most of time there was a pervading sense of indifference. We were shown to our room on arrival without a word of welcome or even the briefest of familiarization with how... More

This was a great experience in a great area of Bangkok. From the moment we stepped out of the hotel we knew we were amongst it from a locals perspective. Very close to the city and JJ markets by Cab. A great walk to see some amazing temples and right in the heart of some incredible food hot spots (the... More

We chose this place after reading reviews on tripadvisor. The owner was very helpful and welcoming. The room was clean and comfortable. The breakfast from the local area was a nice touch. The noise from the families living near watching the television is my only complaint but it didn't bother us too much as its to be expected in Bangkok.... More

When I travel, I don't like to feel at home...that's why I go places! A good blend of modern and ethenic feel - both food and architecture- in a quiet location is all the comfort I needed...would definitely be here again when I come back!!! Worapan is a great host...and guide

The owner is very helpful and friendly, the breakfast was yummy and good to have... More

For years I've been coming to this part of Bangkok and wishing that someone would create a tasteful, comfortable guest house in one of the great old Thai houses that dot the wonderful, colorful and very authentic Samsen Road neighborhood. Samsen 5 Lodge has only three rooms--mine was beautifully designed (the owner is a young award winning architect), and really... More
