Although some of the facilities looks old but it is clean. The hostel equipped with water heater. shampoo and washing machine. It is a hostel so don't expecting too much like a hotel. Take note that the hostel do not have elevator, you will need to carry your luggage up the stairs. With this cheap price, what else to expect?... More

Place: The place is great because is tucked in a quite soi but near enough to Patpong, to Silom road and to Surawong road for the nightlife. It's a retrofitted building that was initially intended for offices. The place has narrow corridors w/o the benefit of an elevator. To think I could have gotten better accommodations for the price I... More

I stayed here for a total of 3 nights and thoroughly enjoyed it. Toliets/showers were clean and the hostel provided shampoo and soap which was fantastic as I had ran out. I stayed in a dorm on the 6th floor which was s pain to get to but did force me to do some form of exercise on my trip.... More

I stayed here mid July and was a bit shocked when I arrived. It is in a pretty dirty little side street which is not lit at night. The small reception/breakfast room/lobby was a bit messy and it didn't invite you to sit down and mingle with other travellers. The room had no window and was lit by one large... More

This won't be the cheapest option for you in Bangkok. There are certainly those littered on Khao San Road. But this is probably one of the cozier options. The rooms are clean and big enough. The downsides are the shared bathroom and some rooms don't have a window. The staff are super friendly. We've been here numerous times and have... More

If ou’re coming to Bangkok on a hostel budget, I really cannot recommend The Urban Age enough. Yes, it’s Lonely Planet listed, so you’ll have to reserve a week or two in advance if you want a private en suite room, or even a dorm at some times - but the Silom location features a neat mix of farangs and...

The urban age is located in the centre of Bangkok just off Silom Road. The location is excellent for everything as there are transport links close and markets and plenty of places to eat. By far the best thing about this hostel is the great service the staff provide. All 3 staff members we met were really friendly and helpful... More

I was caught with food poisoning and the owner suggested I went to Bangkok Christian Hospital get a jab. When I came back, she was really concerned about me. I have never felt so loved during a backpacking trip. LOL. The place is at Saladaeng Soi 6. There most obvious landmark is the "Yellow Bank". Just right outside the infamous... More
