Best Bed Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Hostel

Every room has a shared bathroom, and the choice runs from bunk-bed dormitory rooms to a double room, a twin room with two single beds and a family room for up to three guests. Some rooms have a street view, and the beds include single, double and queen beds alongside bunk beds.

Air conditioning, blackout curtains and a balcony or terrace are found in some rooms, and several have an electric kettle, a reading light or a walk-in shower. Toiletries and towels come with several rooms, and guests can leave luggage at the property. Free Wi-Fi is available in all rooms.

The property has a 24-hour front desk, express check-in and check-out, and daily housekeeping. Guests can use a shared lounge with a TV area, a computer station and luggage storage, and lockers and safety deposit boxes are provided.

An airport transfer and a shuttle service are offered, and there is a breakfast takeaway service. The property also has a laundromat, a convenience store, a terrace and a rooftop area, and it is wheelchair accessible.

Bicycle parking is available, and free parking is available nearby. Internet services and Wi-Fi in public areas are also offered, along with air conditioning in the public areas and a family room for guests travelling together.

The hostel is on the eastern side of Bangkok, close to Suvarnabhumi Airport, in an area of local streets, small village lanes and markets rather than hotel districts. It suits anyone who needs a bed near the airport rather than a base in the old city, which is a long way off. The neighbourhood is practical for an overnight stop, with everyday shops close by and the airport only a short journey away.

Within a short distance are Wat Sangkaracha, a local temple, and the Suvarnabhumi Outdoor Market. The Airport Rail Link at Lat Krabang station is 1.8 km away and runs into central Bangkok, while Suvarnabhumi Airport itself is 2.9 km away. Guests heading into the city can use the rail link from Lat Krabang station, and Ladkrabang Railway Station, also 1.8 km away, is the other rail stop nearby.

A day out could take in The Grand Palace, 27.1 km away in the old city, with Wat Arun on the Chao Phraya riverbank nearby. The Chatuchak Weekend Market, 22.7 km away, is a large market with thousands of stalls selling clothes, food and crafts. Each of these sights is a separate outing, so they suit a full day rather than a short stop.
