This hotel was quite disappointing. We'd reserved a triple room but were shown to a twin room. When I called down staff did immediately come to make it up but the third bed was only a folding bed and not terribly comfortable. The room was dingy and not overly clean, there was also a fair bit of mould in the... More

I stayed in New World City for 5 nights In January. It was tucked away off the main street and about a 10 minute walk from the tourist areas. This is a very basic hotel and generally why it it quite cheap. The rooms are decent sized with a small bar friends, tv, air con, a small smokers balcony and... More

The hotel is a rundown version of Nouvo which is their modern boutique hotel. The room is big but the furniture's are very old and definitely has served its purpose for years. As for the breakfast, the variety is fine but the taste is not for those seeking for some fancy one. We stayed here for 3 nights during our... More

We stayed in 3 different hotels on our trip to Bangkok and this was one of them. It's definetely nothing special but for tired travellers it definetely does the trick. The service is very nice and helpful, rooms are a bit old but big, clean and not noisy. The real advantage of this place is it's location, steps away from... More

It's a good place to stay, not more not less. free wifi, average breakfast buffet the travel desk was really friendly, helped us to organize our holiday. for more luxury (like pool & gym) see nouvo hotel (built together, but different services). Location: quiet, a lot of nice places for shopping and restaurants around.

Staff were unfriendly and inefficient, the rooms were very basic, and it is next to a canal which stinks. The breakfast looked very much like it was whatever was leftover from the previous nights dinner, what little we managed to try certainly tasted that way. I haven't stayed in any other hotels in Bangkok but I would be amazed if... More

Upon arrival, service was rude and unhelpful. The rooms view was of a wall covered in ac units. The remote didnt work for the small screen tv. Room service was late, the coffee instant, the juice out of a can and no breakfast included. The bathroom was dirty and the shower uncomfortable.

There's a complicated backstory with this hotel, which used to be called the New World Lodge and was renamed New World City Hotel and then later a second modern hotel was built behind it, called the Nuovo World City Hotel. So, there are now two hotels, the older 50's hotel, and the modern nuovo. Most internet sites book the older... More
