Just book it you wont regret it

I have stayed in 4 hostels in Bangkok and this was by far the best one. The rooms are clean and modern, the people were friendly and the staff are super nice and helpful. They have activities everyday that you can join. Great atmosphere at the bar on the top floor. Will visit again before i leave Bangkok.

Great base in Khao San Road area

Found this a great base in the Khao San Road area, nice social atmosphere to meet travellers from around the world. I stayed in a private room, which while on the small side but had everything I needed. Olive and the other staff are great, and organise regular evening activities (for example, a trip to night markets). There's a rooftop bar too, although it felt quite separate from the rest of the hostel. Would definitely stay again.

Bien

Un très bon accueil, les filles sont adorables. Le petit déjeuner est formidable, le fait de se servir est un plus. La chambre nous parait un peu petite et le fait que le lit soit collé contre le mur sans possibilité de le déplacer est très dérangeant. A part ceci, il n'y a rien à dire, la propreté est irreprochable.

We loved the common area, where it was really easy to meet new people. Also the staff girls were super nice and helpful and gave us tips on where to go and helped us booking a bus for our next stop of our journey. Usually they have free activities every day (like going to the night market,..), but unfortunately there was no event happening when we were there. Yet they still organised a private one after we asked them :) The room (we stayed in a private) was super clean, cozy and had a nice A/C and a fridge. Even though the hostel was pretty full and there is a rooftop bar with live music, it was still really quite in the room. They even cleaned our room every day and gave us new towels. Breakfast (fruits, cereals and toast) free and available until noon. The location is perfect to hop on a taxi boat to explore the city and also just 5min walk to khao san road. Wifi worked perfectly fine, plus they have a PC in the common area free to use. Reception was open 24/7. All in all probably the best hostel in bangkok.

여행자 거리에서 가까워서 편했어요. 너무 가깝지도 않아서 시끄러운 것도 없었구요. 새 건물인지 시설 대부분이 깨끗 했습니다. 가격대비 정말 괜찮습니다. 추천 드려요.

Great hostel, room was very clean and comfortable bed, good AC. You can make your own breakfast for free which was good. This place is a 10 minute walk to Khao San Rd. And it’s 400 Baht set price for a taxi to the airport (Don Mueang) if you ask the staff there.

Great, but loud at night.

Facilities were great, including free breakfast, but didn't get a lot of sleep. They don't seem to have a "quiet time" so there were loud parties at 3am, 4am, 5am... waking me up at night. Even after bringing this up with staff, they were unable to stop the noise. So it's great spot, but stay away from the balcony room or rooms right by the stairwell if you actually want any sleep.

그런저런 나쁘지 않은

2-4층에 있는 발코니룸을 가족이 전부 사용했어요. 발코니룸은 각층에 1개씩 있었구요. 2층은 1층 야외테라스와 근접해서 테라스에서 바라보기 좋았어요. 노래소리가 객실까지 들리니 예민하시면 불편할 수 있어요. 이불은 빨지 않은건지 습기때문이었는지 냄새가 났어요. 3층은 청소를 락스 냄새가 3일내내 객실에서 났어요. 1층 테라스는 보이지 않아요. 가림막이 2층에 되어있어요. 4층은 에어컨이 아주 잘되서 시원합니다. 전체적으로 침대는 딱딱해요. 푹신하고 편안하진 않아요. 1인~2인이 머물기에 적당한 크기의 객실입니다. 캐리어를 펼칠 수도 있고 헹거에 옷을 걸 수 있어요. 청소를 요청하는 카드를 문에 걸어야 청소해줍니다. 수건은 프론트로 가져가면 바꿔줍니다. 아침 조식은 간단한 서양식입니다. 계란, 시리얼, 우유, 빵 그외...직원들은 영어를 잘합니다. 제가 능숙하지 않아서 그런지 무시한다는 느낌을 받았어요. 영어를 쓰면 웃더라구요. 개인적인 느낌이니 감안하세요. 위치는 걸어다니기에 무난합니다. 어르신들은 하루 일정이 끝나고 걷기에는 힘이 든다고 했습니다.

Great stay!

We had a great stay at Jam Hostel Bangkok! If you want to experience Bangkok while at the same time hang out with people from different corners of the world, then you should definitely go here. The hostel arranges activities every day that you can participate in for free. While we were there, Xi (the front-desk manager) one evening gave us (the guests at the hostel) a guided visit at two different temples, then took us to a great Indian restaurant and then to a rooftop bar in Chinatown. Then another day she arranged to take us to a floating market and then to a Muay Thai fight in the evening. It was great! If you want to experience different things in Bangkok and at the same time get to know new people, then you should stay at Jam Hostel. The location was also great, you can walk to Khao San road as well as to the Grand Palace and the temple Wat Pho (with the reclining Buddha). We are very happy that we found this hostel in Bangkok and would have loved to stay even longer!
