New C.H. Guest House

The rooms at New C.H. Guest House range from 25 m² with a double bed to 40 m² with four single beds, and free Wi-Fi is available in all rooms. Air conditioning or a fan keeps the rooms cool, depending on the room, and flat-screen TVs with satellite and cable channels are fitted in several of them.

The Quadruple Room sleeps up to four guests in four single beds, and the Triple Room sleeps up to three guests with one single bed and one king bed. Rooms with two single beds or one double bed sleep up to two guests, so the choice of bed set-up depends on how many people are travelling.

The 24-hour front desk offers express check-in and check-out, and there is a concierge to help with arrangements. Guests can use luggage storage, lockers and safety deposit boxes, and tours can be arranged.

Daily housekeeping, laundry service, dry cleaning and babysitting service are offered. Guests can eat in the restaurants or order room service, and a vending machine is on site.

The property also has a shared lounge and TV area, internet access and WiFi in public areas, and a family room. The front desk is staffed around the clock, so guests can ask for help at any time of day. The shared lounge and TV area is a place to relax in the evening.

New C.H. Guest House is on the Khao San side of Bangkok, with Khao San Road 350 m away. The main road is lined with guesthouses and street-food stalls, and it stays busy well into the evening. Several tailors and bookshops are within a few hundred metres, so the area suits a stay built around the streets as much as the sights. The guesthouse's own shared lounge and TV area offers a quieter place to spend an evening.

The Grand Palace is 1.3 km from the guesthouse, and the Temple of the Emerald Buddha (Wat Phra Kaew), which stands inside the palace grounds, is 1.1 km away. Across the Chao Phraya river, Wat Arun, the temple with its tall prang, is 2 km away. Democracy Monument stands 250 m away on Ratchadamnoen Avenue, a wide avenue that runs through the old city and links several of the area's landmarks.

A full day here can start at the Grand Palace and Wat Phra Kaew, continue to Wat Arun by river boat, and end on Khao San Road. For a longer outing, the Chatuchak Weekend Market is a separate trip across the city, with a large range of stalls selling clothes, food and crafts.
