Khaosan Road Rainbow Hostel Reviews

This place is horrible. To quote the girls overheard in the room next door: "this is the worst hostel in Thailand!". Very run down. Rooms are like small jail cells, no windows, mold, holes in the walls, crumbly ceiling. Bathroom was unacceptable. Very hot inside, but the air-con in the rooms was nice. There are many other better places to stay in Khao San road. Just walk around and you'll find something better. Pass on this place.

It's a very simple hostel. The rooms are small and simpel. It ist very close to the famous Khaosan Road and perfect for a very short stay in Bangkok (e.g. for organising a trip to somewhere else). For longer stays i would recommend another hostel with comfortable rooms. We stayed only one night which was ok.

The room we had was on the street and without any pane at the window so we had the impression to be at the table of a club all night long, until 6am at least. Besides, it was completely dirty. It cost 400 Bahts, so for this price, no need to take a room in this hostel because you won't sleep. Before leaving the next day, we asked for another room and the only answer we got is that they knew the room 107 was awful and that they were (a little bit) sorry.

it was a very good place to stay, even if it wasn't the cleanest. beds are very hard and loud. but anyway.. if u're on a backpacking tour and want to safe money u should spend a few nights there. i felt very safe at the hostel and the staff is friendly. i can not really complain :)

My husband and I had a fantastic time at the hostel. The staff treated us very good, helped us if we ever needed anything and also the food in the restaurant was fantastic too. The only thing I didn't like was the bed mattress, as it was a little stiff, however when you are getting such a great price for a place to stay for a week you can't complain too much. Thanks for a great week..

Room was basic but I could say the guest house is one of the best choices for Bangkok stay at such low price, esp for group to share 6+ bed dorms: very good location, friendly and supportive staffs. We did enjoy the stay!

In a single room, very dirty, bed was like a brick! The only positive was the great proximity to Khoasan Rd.

Room was a bit grim, kinda looked like a jail cell. However, that said, there's nothing wrong with a jail cell for a few nights, and it had a fan, so it was all good really. The Indian food was really good..! And the staff were friendly and helpful. If you're on a tight budget, and are looking for an affordable base to explore Bangkok from, then it ticks the boxes.

The dorm was ok but wasn't cleaned every day. Mud from the shoes of a guy was still there days after he left. The showers weren't too clean either, but the cleaner was chilling out in the linen room every time I came past it. Should be able to clean more than once a day then... Worst thing was the night club on an open roof top just opposite. Don't know how often they have live music, but you can't sleep till three in the morning then. First two nights were quiet but the third was hell.

Good place to crash if you are in transit. Not much character. Doesn't really have a "hostel" feel. Windowless rooms. New Joes Guesthouse down the road is cheaper and better rooms. On a very busy street, pretty loud at night. Seemed kind of expensive for what you get.

Very dirty, but air-conditioning in dorm for B150. sure can't be found cheaper elsewhere.

Rooms were not the best, but the staff are extremely helpful and friendly. Didn't eat in the restaurant so can't comment on that, but it did seem busy. For the location - very near Ko San Road - it was pretty hard to beat. Plus they booked us bus tickets in advance to get down to Ko Phagnan for the full moon party, which was a lifesaver.

Position of the hostel is good. But I don\'t suggest to reside there if you want to have good rest in the night since near Khaosan road is very noisy. Hostel is not dirty but walls in halls and rooms which are not painted long time leave such impression.

basic room I stayed in and quite run down so not the nicest room , but ok for a few days and 9 $ for a night , but the excellent indian food in the restaurant , and the helpfull great staff , who love to have chat makes it up for the and absolute worth staying .....

Great cheap place to stay, although no communal area aside from the resteraunt and they dont warn you that the air con is turned off in the dorm all day during the hottest time of day. Not so good if its during the hot season.

It's a good place, unfortunately without common areas but hey.. you're in Bangkok so there heaps to do and see. The Indian restaurand at the ground floor is excellent!!

The rom s where not clean! We found a used condom on the floor! The bed where as hard as the floor. Good location, cheap and nice staff. The food in the restaurant downstair is really good!

Very, very dirty.

Absolutely great place to stay ! Staff are amazing , really really amazing indians ! Love'em

Good Location, but pretty filthy and no character at all.
