Location & what to see
AboutTime Bangkok sits on Phet Kasem Road in South Thonburi, on the western bank of the Chao Phraya River. The streets around it mix residential houses, old temples and canals, and the area feels calmer than the tourist districts on the eastern bank. It is a practical base for travellers who want local character close to the river and the city's main sights.
Bang Wa MRT Station is 500 m away and Phetkasem 48 MRT Station is 850 m, so the metro links the hostel to the rest of the city. Wat Kho Non, a pagoda, is nearby, and the Floating Market Khlong Bang Luang is 1.8 km away. Wat Arun, on the river, is 4.8 km away, and The Grand Palace is 5.5 km.
A day could begin at the canal market, continue to Wat Arun and the Grand Palace, and end back at the hostel's games room. Wat Arun and the Grand Palace are classic sights for a first visit to Bangkok, so a day split between the two is a practical plan. The area around the hostel is quieter than the old city, and the Bang Wa and Phetkasem stations make it easy to head into the centre by metro when you want a busier evening.
What guests say
Travellers rate the service (9.5) and the cleanliness (9.4) most highly, and the value for money (9.3) also scores very well.
