Overview

Soi Rambuttri is the leafier, slightly calmer neighbour of Khao San Road, and BB House Rambuttri 2 opens straight onto that scene in historic Phra Nakhon. It's an affordable guesthouse with sleek, minimalist air-conditioned rooms.

Wi-Fi reaches the whole building at no charge. Step out and you're among street-food stalls and bars, with the Old Town's major sights reachable without transport.

Highlights

  • Next to Rambuttri Alley and Khao San Road
  • Around 10 minutes on foot to the National Museum
  • Grand Palace and Wat Phra Kaew within walking distance
  • Air-conditioned rooms with minimalist décor
  • Complimentary Wi-Fi

Location

The guesthouse is in Phra Nakhon, the historic district that contains Banglamphu. The property puts the Bangkok National Museum about ten minutes away on foot and says the Grand Palace and Temple of the Emerald Buddha can be reached on foot too.

For Siam, Sukhumvit or the airport, a taxi or ride-hailing car is the easy option, as the Skytrain doesn't reach this area.

Good to know

  • Rambuttri and Khao San stay lively late, especially at weekends.
  • The building is a guesthouse, so don't expect hotel extras such as a pool.
