Experience the REAL Thailand at Pinklao Traveler's House. Our homestay is located in a local village on the outskirts of Bangkok. Close enough to the city to easily get in (8 mins from Oldtown and the Grand Palace, 15 from Siam Square) but far enough away to retain the authenticity that is lost in the "Bangkok Bubble". The prices are cheaper, the people are friendlier, and the experience is priceless. Sure, the aunties cooking up fresh, local Thai food in our Soi might not speak English, but that's the perfect opportunity to practice your Thai. We even provide resources to help get you started! All of our private rooms come with free access to our Wifi, the fastest plan BKK has to offer, your own air conditioner, your own private workspace, a travel guide, a map of the local area, and menus that have been translated for you! So if you're a true traveler: ready to learn some Thai and cozy up to the local aunties, ready to be the only foreigner at the local market, ready to see the real Thailand, a side of Thailand most tourists never get to see, then Pinklao Traveler's House is ready to be a part of your adventure!

Hey there! We are Mitch and Gigi and we'll be your hosts during your stay at PTH. Mitch has been living in Thailand for 8 years, and in this village for 7 of them. He formerly ran a company training teachers, and has become an expert on visas, arrival info, and living abroad in Thailand. Gigi is half Thai and half British, having grown up in Thailand from the time she was 11. She speaks fluent Thai and has a deep understanding of Thai culture and heritage. We both love to travel, and have been traveling Thailand extensively for most of our lives. We know this country like the back of our hand, and are absolutely experts on anything and everything you could possibly want to know. Our homestay isn't just a place to stay. It comes with resources and expert knowledge to help you along your journey in Thailand. And for most of our 100+ guests over the past year, that was their favorite part! Oh, we also have Hex and Jinx, our kitties. They're extremely friendly and add even more love to our little home. We hope to welcome you to Bangkok soon!!

We live in a local village right behind "Central Pinklao", our nearest shopping center. We are within 5 minutes of three different markets including Chang Chui Art Market, Indy Night Market, and Taling Chan Floating Market. We are also only 8 minutes from Oldtown which includes attractions such as the Grand Palace, Wat Pho (the Reclining Buddha), the Temple on the Golden Mount, and the infamous Khao San Road. Another 5 minutes in the same direction and you'll be at Siam Square, the commercial center of the city. However, we're also only about 10 minutes from Silom, which boasts both Asiatique and Icon Siam, two of the coolest attractions in Bangkok. Our area also has dozens of coffee shops, hundreds of local eateries and restaurants, some of the best Muay Thai camps in Bangkok, gyms and yoga studios, and even a bouldering gym! There's even a wakeboarding park only about 15 minutes down the road. We also provide a full travel guide to help you sort this information, and give you ideas for how to see it all. Like we said, this isn't just a homestay. It's a true cultural experience!
