Viengtai Hotel  

The location is good. Almost on Ko San road, which means easy access to backpacker restaurants and bars. Unfortunately, it also means you're in for a noisy time (especially if you have a room facing the street). Staff were very friendly and helpful.

We cut our stay short by 6 nights because the room absolutely stank of mould and damp. We were shown the superior rooms (which were offered at a discount of 1,900 THB/night), but these also smelt of damp (although not as much). They also have a big sign on the window saying you shouldn't open it, and a lot of the smell came from the air con, I believe. Not a good situation. Instead, we found a nice hotel, 15 min walk away with lovely rooms and included breakfast for 1,300 THB/night. Essentially, with this hotel, you're paying for the location and absolutely nothing else. If you don't want music playing outside till 5 am, well, seriously find another place to stay (away from Ko San road) or make absolutely sure you get a room at the back)

The staff were helpful and professional at all times.

The room was dated and the lighting was poor.

Great location if you want to be at the heart of the tourist gathering spot and bargain shopping.

Would have liked tea and coffee making facilities in the room.

Location.

Location: one block away from popular Khao San Road. Great restaurants, street food vendors and Thai massage rooms right outside the door! Children also enjoyed cold and refreshing pool.

Quite noisy late night if your room is on the street side. Breakfast buffet could offer wider variety of food.

Location soo close (walking distance 10 min) to things as the grand palace etc.

Height of bathroom

Excellent staff, always smiling and helpful.

The hotel is showing its age and could do with a good painting and modernisation. It is a little tired around the edges !!!! It has gone down hill since our last visit.

Great hotel with large rooms in a great location.

Unfortunately the staff did not give us the requested wake up call that was booked in the night before and our room was not cleaned once during our 2 night stay. Everything else was great - I wonder why they seemed to forget about us? was it because they are too occupied with tour groups????Hotel is good however - just dont rely on staff to wake you or to have your room cleaned.

I found the hotel to be an excellent base for a family trip to Bangkok; very comfortable and very good value for money.

Viengtai hotel offers basic but fine rooms at a top location if you like to enjoy Khao San Road. At the doorstep of the hotel all the activities and fun can be found: restaurants, shops, massage and lots of travellers. Still Viengtai hotel has decent rooms (bed is good) and a swimming pool. If you want to get some sleep, it is recommended to request a room at the back side of the hotel. Rooms seem to differ somewhat; in the first room we had (facing the street), the ceiling was very low in the bathroom and the airco was standing iso hanging.

Design (if any) is outdated. The fun should be found outside of the hotel.

The hotel was clean and comfortable. The breakfast was good quality and varied.Good location.

The staff could have been more helpful.

The location of the hotel was fantastic and having a travel agent linked to the hotel was helpful too. The buffet breakfast was lovely and it was nice to not worry about what to get for breakfast. The rooms were clean and comfortable although the view was an eyesore. It was great to be on a non-smoking floor and we were fairly high up so didn't hear alot of street noise.

The hotel could use a little money put in to fix it up a little as some parts were a little run down. It would be more helpful if the hotel staff automatically provided a map and some tourist information on arrival. It would also be helpful if they automatically showed you the location of the hotel on the map and any surrounding attractions as none of the staff were particularly helpful in this department.
