The Posh Phayathai

Very convenient location. I stayed here once b4 Covid. Is not the same. Missed the breakfast at the Rooftop which is now a Bar. Hostel getting older but still clean except the blanket I had, accidentally saw many hairs when I pulled up the wrong side. The built-in small locker box key in the bunk bed doesn’t turn. Is only for 1 night to catch my plane, at this price, cannot ask for more. Thanks the hostel for free luggage storage after check out.

This hostel is conveniently located near the BTS. I arrived at 11 PM (Suvarnabhumi Airport), and it only took about 40 minutes to get there via the Airport Link. It’s a great option for solo travelers like myself. The receptionist was very friendly and asked about my plans in Bangkok. The place is clean and well-kept. With elevator, coffee area, spacious lobby. Highly recommended!

The room was not as welcoming as the photo gallery showed. The lightings were dim. The cleanliness was bad. The hotel is poorly maintained. The TV was only 28”. No international channels.

I really like this place! Stayed in a single room, have to share the toilet/shower room. 2 toilets and 2 shower rooms available, nonetheless, no need to wait whenever i need to use it. The place less than 5min walk away from Phaya Thai station. The room is clean, toilet and shower room quite clean too. TV is available, but i didn't use it. Room space is quite spacious, can still walk after i open up my cabin luggage. There is only 1 plug available in the room but the best thing is i dont have to use a travel adapter! There is a space below the bed, probably for you to put your luggage in but i didnt since i still have space to walk. Water dispenser available at lobby. Have to climb a flight of stairs (10 steps) whenever entering the hostel from outside. Lift available after entering the lobby. Hair dryer is available but it's spoilt? Told the short-hair staff about it but no action from her. Told another long-haired female staff about it, and she passed me a spare hair dryer to use (she is really, really nice and friendly btw!)

Couldn't be better. It's was my first time in hostel and it was great! Clean, friendly, quiet. Even in hostel I had a lot of privacy!

Location is superb. That should be the highlight of this place. You will see the place once you walk down the stairs from Phaya Thai station. Information that deserves to be shared: the bathrooms are not segregated by the room type. You will be sharing with the whole floor regardless of the room or bed you book. Where I stayed (3rd floor) There were two showers, 1 toilet and 1 urinal in the gents room. (I did not have to wait to use them during my stay there.) The facilities are in good condition and clean enough. The road noise was manageable. The snoring from your bed-neighbor is the one to be worried about. They do not provide any toiletries so you have to get it from a seven eleven nearby (5mins walk away) The water pressure in the showers is kind of disappointing thus you have to take longer to complete your shower. The rooms are dimly lit regardless day or night. From what I observed, this hostel lacks common area, which is not suitable if you are a digital nomad who wants a place to sit down and work.( There are only 3 four-seater round table beside the reception area) Verdict : it all comes down to the deal that you are getting. Their pricing is on the higher the end. The premium is what you pay for the location. If you are paying ＞= 30 usd/night, you are better off booking a budget hotel. Suggestion to the owner/ operator: a stronger water pressure in the showers would increase customer satisfaction. A full length mirror to check ourselves out before exploring the city would be nice :)
