The 7 Best Hotels in Bangkok (Updated 2025)

"An institution on Khao San Road, this hotel is perfect for last-minute plans since there are almost always rooms and the reception is open 24 hours; the recently upgraded rooms are done in a modern Thai style with wooden interiors and tiled floors and include flatscreen TVs, air conditioning, a mini fridge, and en-suite bathrooms with great shower pressure (note not all rooms have windows). There’s a bar downstairs and a rooftop pool with its own bar that gets packed with travelers, breakfast is available across the street at the Greens and Cheese restaurant, and while it’s a great spot for a private room in the heart of Khao San Road, it’s not the quietest place because the street parties all night." - Matthew Kepnes
