Dara Three Hostel ดาราตรี

The property is located 2.6 km from Temple of the Emerald Buddha, 1.6 km from Wat Saket and 3.2 km from Grand Palace. The accommodation provides a shared kitchen and luggage storage space for guests. Overall, my stay in hostel was pleasant! At first, I had qualms as it was my first time doing solo backpacking travel abroad but I'm glad I stayed at this hostel. It's easy to find it in Grab (I used the app almost every now and then, both car and bike). Check-in was very convenient. I checked-in way before the check-in time yet the room I was assigned was already ready. The owners were very helpful as well.

Station8 Hostel

Bangkok

All units are equipped with air conditioning, a fridge, a microwave, a kettle, a shower, a hairdryer and a desk. Rooms are equipped with a safety deposit box, while some rooms here will provide you with a balcony. At the hostel every room comes with bed linen and towels. My family and I have been traveling around Europe and Asia for the last 6 months and this is the best hostel we have stayed in. It is very obvious that the place has been developed with attention to detail and with love. The place is spotlessly clean and the rooms and common areas have everything we needed. The location is not central in Bagkok bit being right next to the BTS station and near some main roads makes it very easy to recommend. Joy was also on hand to help us with some logistical stuff, which was much appreciated.

Hostels – what are they?

Hostels offer so much more than a cheap place to stay – they're also a fun way to travel and meet like-minded people. Common areas like shared kitchens and game rooms give you the chance to swap tips, tricks, and travel stories with backpackers from all over the world.

Hostels have come a long way since the first youth hostel opened back in 1912. Nowadays there's something for everyone, from budget "crash pads" to 5-star "poshtels." Whether you'd prefer a bed in a shared dorm or your own private room, you'll see that most hostels are cheaper than local hotels – and a lot more fun, too!
