I first stayed at the Malaysia in the late 1980s. Back then, it was a freewheeling sort of place, full of interesting characters from all over the world. After a twenty year break, I was pleasantly surprised to find that very little had changed. OK, so it isn't the most glamorous place to stay in Bangkok, but for the price... more

A Reluctant Review: I don't like alerting folk to one of my favorite and usually overbooked hotels in BKK. A bathtub, TV, bar fridge, and convenient location, excellent and friendly service, plus a swimming pool and 24 hour coffee shop, all for 800 baht a night or thereabouts. Excellent eateries nearby also, and a 7/11 over the road. Um, rooms... more

Despite having made a reservation months in advance, reconfirming more than once (including on the morning of our arrival date!), we were informed upon arrival that there were no rooms available. We were left high and dry in Bangkok on a Saturday night with no place to stay. If you make a reservation at this place, you may be screwed... more

Stayed again at this place and it is still a good value for the money. Underground is about 10 minutes walking distance, parking is for free and pool is relaxing. Breakfast is not included but many restaurants in the area make food hunting convenient. Rooms are still clean but a bit run downed. Reservation by phone was working well and... more

This has to be the best value hotel in Bangkok if you want to be in the general area of Silom/Sathorn/Suriwongse. Large rooms with a double and single bed, small but functional bathroom, Satellite TV, Refrigerator, swimming pool, internet and 24 hour restaurant/bar, all for Baht 700. Bookings must be made 1-2 months in advance as it is always 100%... more

I have stayed at this hotel 3 times. It is clean and centrally located. Food in the 24 hour restaurant is good. Prices are exceptionally reasonable if you book directly with the hotel and not through third parties. My rates were between $14 and $16 USD per day (my first trip being about 6 years ago, and my last trip... more

Stayed every other year from 1972.Not a family hotel. Can be noisy in the corridors. Air con usually works if not say, and they will transfer you.24 hour caffe is excelent, food allways good and cheap. Check your bills, not crooks but overworked. Ask desk for taxi and price.If not taxi tuktuk just outside.Handy for most places. more

Be advised that having a confirmed reservation at this hotel does not mean you will stay here. I booked a room more than a month in advance and confirmed two days ahead of time. They confirmed and asked what time I would arrive. I said 7:30 or 8:00. arrived at 7:30 on the nose. They said we have no rooms.... more
