Description
Located on the corner of Soi Kasem San 1 and Rama 1, the Muangphol Mansion was once a bright shining example of a decrepit looking firetrap, but it's amazing the difference a coat of paint makes. Aside from painting the outside, the rooms also got a bit of a spruce up, and although still pretty noisy, its better value than it used to be. Unfortunately, guests are not allowed to examine rooms before agreeing to rent one. All rooms have air-con and hot water; some have TVs, but apparently only receive Thai TV channels.

The staff here aren't the friendliest, but all the rooms I've stayed in have a bathtub, which is somewhat unusual. There is also 24-hour room service from the restaurant, for only a 10% surcharge. Unless you speak Thai, don't bother with the TV option, they don't have satellite.

Reno Hotel
40 Soi Kasem San 1, Rama 1 Road
Don't be fooled by the well-decorated, almost funky lobby. The rooms are blandly standard and have seen better days. All feature aircon and hot water and some have TV. The rooms smell extremely mouldy, but many have balconies that allow you to air them out a bit. The attached Reno Cafe is... more



Wendy House
36/2 Soi Kasem San 1, Rama 1 Rd, Bangkok
Wendy House has reasonable rooms with air-con and hot water, with perhaps the friendliest staff on Soi Kasem San 1. Downstairs a small cafe with half dozen internet terminals offer email service and snacks in a basic, but pleasant atmosphere. They have books for loan, including travel guides,... more
