THE MALAYSIA is an American style hotel in the Lumpini district of Bangkok.It has a deep pool,fine restaurant,massage centre and great staff.It was built in the 60s for GIs on r+r.Rooms are a little jaded as is the hotel,but at the pricesof $25 per night great value.It is not for homophobes as there is a definit gay r+r vibe now...

We have stayed here on numerous occasions and have always found the staff to be helpful and friendly. Its Gay friendly which became apparent when we returned one night, there were freelancers hanging around everywhere and some were very persistent. While this is not the hotels fault we did get a bit fed up with it as they were operating... More

A friend booked this hotel recently and I flew in to Bangkok to join him. The hotel is about 30 mins by taxi to/from airport, depending on the time/traffic. It takes a good 10mins walk to the nearest subway - Lumpini station. still, it's good exercise for me , especially when I have been eating and eating! Taxis are easily... More

I've stayed here several times and found the staff friendly. Though, forgetting about the laundry down the street I had the hotel do my laundry once and apparently the staff considered the wash as their own little "pick and wear" and lost am irreplaceable shirt. I got no joy from the staff trying to find it or reimbursement! The accomodations... More

This up-date should be read in conjunction with my more detailed review of July, 2009. Essentially, little has changed at the Malaysia since my last visit, except that a number of 'suites' are now available at a nightly cost of between 1,500 and 1,700 baht. These are located in a separate block in the hotel grounds. The bedrooms are furnished... More

I have been guest in this hotel for more than 15 years and even though i could afford a more luxury place, i do not even think to consider this. It may not look very modern and as flashy as many other hotels..... but it is great value: located on walking distance to the underground train and a short taxi... More

I always stay at the Malaysia. Staff is very friendly, always remembers me. Hotel is a short walk to the subway, and a short taxi ride to the night spots. Very gay friendly. Nice 24 hour coffee shop, I always eat breakfast there. Hotel is spotless. The price absolutely cannot be beat. Good internet shop behind the coffee shop (they... More

I have stayed at the Malaysia Hotel on 12 occasions over the past 20 years. Some of the staff are still there and always smile and treat you like a friend. The cafe is open 24 hours and good selections and value. The hotel is older but that is part of the charm. Ideally situated to the subway and sky-train... More

I know this hotel for about 22 years now, and am always welcomed by the staff as I arrive home! Most of the staff are working there since I came there for the first time, so a real and comfortable feeling! The hotel itself is a bit old but still... no carpets in the room, so even a bit old,...
