Woodlands Inn Bangkok

Dobrowolski said, "People are friendly, breakfast small,room functionally, that is all.Stay one night or two and lookat TAT another House to book.Max from Germany"

Michael said, "simple, but alright for the price.good value for the neighbourhoud"

HONG said, "Basically, you get very friendly and helpful staff there. It is a budget hotel and you get the bare minimum expected. Some areas need improvement though. Of the two deluxe rooms that we booked, one of them had two small cockroaches and a leaking tap. Otherwise, everything in the room is ok. The walls of the rooms are not very sound proof as the ringing of the telephone in one room could be heard distinctly in another in the early morning. The breakfast service also needs improvement. If you are on early tours such as to set off around 7am, don t expect breakfast to be ready. They only serve breakfast around eight. But when we specifically requested, they prepared toasted bread with jam and butter and a cup of tea/coffee for us each. However, the cook seems very slow in preparing. Even when we told him well in advance that we needed it at 6.40am, it still drag on till almost 6.55am before we could get only our toasted bread. Luckily, we reach our airport in time. This aspect certainly needs more improvement. I also emailed about four days before I left for Bangkok to check if they provide hairdryer and pick-up service but todate I received no reply from their manager! When I need to pay the balance of hotel charges, I paid in cash as they will charge extra 7% if pay by credit card, even though the sawadee.com said all VAT are already included in the room rates! I would recommend this hotel to anyone who is looking for a budget hotel. Not too bad except for these minor hiccups. But they can certainly improve on the points mentioned."

Marta said, " helpful people!We would stay there next time again."

traveller said, "we got a standard room in the section of the hotel without an elevator. the room was a good size. our bed was covered in body hair, we asked them for more towels so we could sleep on top of the towels, but the cleaning lady would not give us extra. the bed was not comfortable at all, very lumpy and the springs hurt. breakfast was ok, nothing special."

Robert said, "I had a nice stay there. It s pretty much what you would expect for a low cost hotel in Bangkok. Don t expect anything fancy, but the service is fine and there is a clean bed to sleep in."

Ulf said, "Very easy to find, just next to the post office and only five minutes of walking to the Si Phraya Pier. Nice and easy rooms, clean bathroom and a nice restaurant, all this for a very reasonable price. The reception staff could need a little improvement in terms of friendliness."

Qassim said, "Ideal for budget travellers, all the basic amneties are provided for. To & from airport is not a hassle as located very close to the tollway."

Wan said, "After seeing so much negative feedback on the cleaniless of this hotel, I was surprised to see that the the room is clean and tidy, and NO coachroach/insects. Equiped with basic facilities sufficient for short stay. The air-cond is a bit noisy but it is still endurable. The service is acceptable. Water is provided upon request. 15 minutes walking to Hualamphong MRT station or by taxi at 35 bahts."

SHLOMO said, "The hotel room is NOT very nice !!!Can NOT reccomend at all !!!"

Marti said, "Very helpful and smiling staff! Of course not a five star hotel (also met some small insects), but still well worth the price. I would recommend it to any budget travellers."

Birgit said, "Never again!We had two rooms. One we could not use because they sprayed an insecticidspray a few hours ago and it smelled like hell. And the other one was full of cockroaches. Even in the bed.The staff was friedly and the food goodBleiben Sie hier ja nicht. Wir hatten zwei Zimmer. Das eine konnten wir nicht benutzen, denn der Gestank vom Insektenvernichtungsmittel war nicht zum Aushalten. In dem anderen Zimmer liefen die Schaben uebers Bett und an den Waenden hoch. Ekelig hoch 10 dort. Das Personal war freundlich und das Essen gut.Man muss Kakerlaken moegen und eine Gasmaske tragen um dort zu wohnen.Wir buchten uns dann im Royal ein, das war sehr gut da."

Ho said, "Itis a worst choice in Bankok. Very dirty room and sheet. Do not stay Woodlands Inn Bangkok."

Bryce said, "A place way off the beatin track. No elevator and rooms are pretty shabby. At least there is a western toliet, but the toliet and shower are not separated. The BTS is a long haul (about 1 km), but there is a pier sort of nearby (10 minute walk).I would spend another 200 baht just for a little extra comfort."

Venkatesh said, "Accomodation was pretty decent. But I have expected more by having a look at photos on web site. For Indians especially Vegetarian this is the best place to stay. South Indian / North Indian food both available. Overall stay was pretty comfortable. Next time if I travel to Bangkok I will choose Woodlands."

Gunnar said, "Was o.k. so far. They gave us an economic room in the 7th floor without elevator, so it was hard work. No Entrance door in the building for the economic rooms. The rooms were clean and o.k. Stuff does not speak good english nor understand!"

Dr. said, "We enjoyed our stay at the Woodlands and would go there again. The breakfast is okay but their Indian food at lunch and dinner is excellent. Rooms were clean and internet is available. Great value & location - close to river and walking distance to night market, but away from the noise."

Anatoli said, "Value for money. Budget Hotel run by/for Indian/Thai. Adds atmosphere. Will stay there again. Good location."

Barbara said, "Located very good; staff is very friendly and helpful; room is clean and nice; price and service is just great; restaurant is great; best place for low rate:-)"

Hans said, "Good value for money. Clean and tidy. The restaurant serves tasty indian and thai food. Close to both river taxi/long tail and BTS Skytrain."

lobov said, "Very good place for budget travellers."

Gareth said, "Mixed feelings. The restaurant is good, really excellent Indian food but the staff a bit surly. My room was quite spacious but a bit dark and the air conditioning noisy. They checked the room every day, made the bed etc. but generally the hotel was quite shabby and dirty, as evidenced by the cockroaches in my room. There seemed to be no hot water in the early afternoon.The location is not great for the main tourist attractions in Bangkok, although you are close to the pier for the river taxi. For 500 baht a night with air conditioning there must be better hotels. Overall 5 out of 10."

Roy said, "STAY AWAY!I followed the advice of many others on this web site and we arrived this hotel at the evening. We saw about 5 room - all of them full with roaches (even a VIP room that we were offered). At the end we found one room without roaches and since we already paid we went up to sleep. Bad decision... first - there was essentially no matress in sleeping condition on the bed, second - the curtains let in all the light from 5am in the morning, thirdly breakfast was lousey. We checked out immidiatly after breakfast. We found the place disgusting, I hope that things will improve for it but I definitly do not recommend it to anyone."

Pedro said, "Literally a roach motel. Owned by nice enough Indians if the room doesnt bother you. 2 roaches I can deal with, a swarm I cannot. Grabbed my stuff and headed to the INNTOWN , a few blocks north on Charoen Krung St, blue and white sign. Much nicer and cleaner, nice staff. 8 bucks extra, very worth it."

YYC said, "The hotel look a bit old but is value for money. The location was very good and easy accessible to place of interests. I will recommend people to stay this hotel."

Gerald said, "A very good basic hotel. No frills here, as the price reflects, but clean, safe and comfortable. AC worked great too! I didn t go to Bangkok to spend my money on a hotel, so this place was perfect for me. I will stay here every time I m in Bangkok."

Malcolm said, "On Charoen Krung Road near the Post-Office. Very good value & quiet. Includes air-con & hot water. Not too far from Silom/Patpong or Siam Square. Take a tuk-tuk or 77 bus."

vamsidhar said, "hi i enjoyed the stay at woodlands inn in bangkok.i had booked online and response was great.the food in indian restaurant was excellent.the service was fantastic.i will certainly stay in woodlands for my next visit"

Joe said, "Clean, simple, agreeable. Not a very interesting neighborhood, but tourist stuff is only a short cab ride away.My room lacked toilet paper, which may be disturbing to farang."

Jeff said, "The hotel was very quiet and situated in somewhat of a convinient place. Close to silom road and 15mins walk to the skytrain. Did see a few roaches, and the bed was a bit hard. Did include a breakfast with the price. Nothing to wake up early to though. When it came to check out time i wanted to pay by credit card, on thew site it said the VAT of 7% was included, but if you paid by credit card they would charge the 7% On top of the actual price again. Which is not stated on the response letter or the website. Service was OK, and the restaurant was OK."

James said, "The hotel was nice and clean and centraly located, near the skytrain thus making transportation an ease. The hotel is tucked away on a quiet soi just off New Road, so noise was not a problem. The value/price was great. I would stay there again."
