Top 10 Budget Hotels in Bangkok

At best they’re cheap, cheerful and clean; at worst musty, dirty and unfriendly. If that’s what you’ve been taught to expect from the budget hotel, prepare to be pleasantly shocked by the following Top 10, each costing a little more or less than US$ 50 a night. With everything from swimming pools to thoughtfully-styled interiors, web-wired lounges to spas and locations near the Skytrain, each proves that small luxuries are no longer the exclusive domain of the expensive.

1. Lub D

Silom - - 

Raw industrial chic – exposed steel and brushed concrete – fills this trendy hostel in Silom. The result is funky and comfy: super clean dorms with big beds and private lockers, twin rooms with bunk beds, double rooms with en-suites. Free public Internet, a café and a cosy TV area heighten the appeal of this amiable alternative to the traditional backpacker dive.

2.Take a Nap

Silom - - 

What happens when you combine 30 basic rooms, a location near Silom and eye-catching pop-art? ‘Take a Nap’, Bangkok’s trailblazing boutique inn, is what happens. Each room and dorm sports a funky one-off wall design, styles ranging from hyper-real evocations of the Grand Palace to kitsch depictions of fairytale forests. Flamboyant and functional.

3.Regent Suvarnabhumi Airport Hotel

Suvarnabhumi Airport - -

Regent Suvarnabhumi, one of the best places for stop-over near Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport, is suitable for transit or late night flights passengers as our hotel is only 8 minutes drive away from Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport and 25 minutes from Bangkok downtown.

4.Baiyoke Boutique Hotel

                                                      Pratunam - - 

Looming in the shadow of the city’s tallest building, this urbane boutique is proof that the budget hotel can be bold and brash. Its slick white lobby has flourishes of glowing orange. Dark, chic rooms bristle with flat screen TVs and hip modern art. And the fast and furious Pratunam shopping area is on your doorstep. The most ultra-modern of our Budget Top 10.

 

5.Unico Express @ Sukhumvit

Sukhumvit - - 

Smart, smiling staff work the bright, cream-marbled lobby. Chandeliers abound in an opulent restaurant. A swimming pool sits out back, yards from a bubbling Jacuzzi. And the warm exotic rooms are as they should be – well-equipped, uncluttered, eye-pleasing. In spite of its nifty but noisy location on Sukhumvit Soi 3, Unico Express is dapper indeed.
