It's easy to regard accommodations merely as waiting rooms for the next day's activities; but at Old Bangkok Inn, your accommodations are an experience unto itself. Old Bangkok Inn is a classic, rustic presentation of the city and an achievement in impeccable service and decor. We stayed in January 2012, originally in the Rice and Lemongrass rooms, but moving to... More

My friend and I arrived in Bangkok, early January 2012. Having not visited the Far East we were unsure about what to expect, but were more than pleasantly surprised with this gem of a hotel. The landlady and her staff were the friendliest people we met on our three week trip, and each morning left a gift on our pillows!... More

So many hotel rooms are identical around the world. Old Bangkok Inn is a wonderful step back into Thailand's history. Every single detail, and there are thousands, is meticulously and purposefully arranged showing just how much care and dedication the owners have for the inn. The biggest plus was the customer service. I have never been to a hotel that... More

If you want to feel the atmosphere of Bangkok's old town, this is the place to stay. The hotel is really charming, the landlady fantastic and the breakfast really great! I spent 2 nights there. I had a couple of problems in the first room I stayed and was moved to the secon floor. The room had a fantastic atmosphere.... More

This is the ultimate in terms of value and getting a real Thai experience. We've visited Bangkok multiple times and stayed in the Shangri-La (which we love) but this beats it any day. The staff at the front desk goes *so* far out of their way to make sure that you're set with your exploration of the city, they are... More

We loved our stay at the Old Bangkok Inn - it felt much more personal than the big hotels in Bangkok, and the staff was very friendly and attentive. The rooms are all wonderfully decorated in a classic Thai theme (with wooden paneling, antique furniture, beautiful Thai paintings), which allows guests to really soak up a traditional side of Thailand...

This hotel is the definition of the much overused term "boutique hotel". Charming, elegant, warm and caring. I just wished I had stayed longer so I will have to return. More

5 years ago, as a woman traveling alone for the 1st time in SE Asia, I was incredibly lucky to begin my adventure in the wonderfully atmospheric and beautifully designed OBI which became my home from home ( and where I stayed 3 times in those 10 weeks). I return half a decade later with my husband enroute to Cambodia... More

I stayed at this hotel my 1st 2 nights in Bangkok. I was a disaster when I arrived from the 24 hours of travel - it was 2AM when I got to the hotel, after giving the driver the number to call (I did not print the map as instructed) and he got instructions from the attendant, who was waiting...

This was a lovely place to stay in Bangkok, the perfect alternative to a chain hotel. The staff are super helpful and friendly, the rooms are lovely, and the location is really good. Little touches like the small gift left on our bed (we got chopsticks!) and the arrival drink set the hotel apart. But most of all the place... More
