I'd happily stay here again.

I thought we had booked an air conditioned room online, but when we got there there was no air conditioning. They gave us two standing fans but it was too hot to sleep. I had stayed at other hostels in Bankok without air conditioning but with a fan over the bed and those were fine, but the floor fans did not help and the room was sweltering hot. Otherwise, the staff is very friendly and helpful, and the free breakfast is great! Good location too.

I spend two nights in sivarin guesthouse, and it was really good. I slept in the 4 bed rooms. the staff is really nice and helpfull, the place is cute, in a calm street, 5-10 minutes away of koa san road. Free breakfeast, free wifi, and a free bottle of water each day. I think the price is good. they also do restaurant, cheap and really good thai food ! enjoy ! David

The place is nice and clean, but it doesn't have air conditioning, so it can be really hot at night. The breakfast was nice and the staff too. I recommend this place, but if you are not good with a fan at night, think it twice. El lugar es muy bueno. Limpio y acogedor. El desayuno era simple, pero bueno. El unico problema es q no tiene aire acondicionado, asi q puede ser bn caluroso en las noches. Recomiendo este lugar, pero piensalo dos veces si t da mucho calor en las noches solo con ventilad

The staff was super nice with us and they recommend lots of stuff to do and how to move around Bangkok, the breakfast that was included with the room was nice and included all the coffee you can have. The room were clean and the shower (shared) was all the time really clean. It is one of the nicest guesthouse i have ever been.

GREAT location. We were able to walk from one of the piers of the river tour to the hostel. It is also a short walk from Khao San road. Breakfast in the morning is great. And the staff is very helpful in arranging tours.

After staying at some pretty grunge places in India, flying into Bangkok and arriving at Sivarin was the most pleasant surprise! The room was super super cute, homey, and clean. The staff were adorable and helpful. Overall, we had a really great experience and would recommend Sivarin to anyone.

Staff friendly although difficult to understand. They have a book proposing tours but was asked to look on the Internet for booking - or, maybe I didn't understand? Got the information I needed from neighboring guesthouses.

Nice guesthouse far enough from Koh San so it was not too loud, but close enough to walk. Nice staff as well.

Very nice guesthouse, very good service as they provide you breakfast, wifi, towel, 1 bottle of water/day, all included. And you can also ask for washing machine, mini bus to the airport, tours... but it is à little bit expensive, above all for dorms. Staff really Nice and helpful. Location really great, 10 min from khao san and really quiet .

Lovely little guesthouse. Enjoyed our stay here. It was clean, well looked after, I felt safe, friendly staff and the breakfast in the morning is a very nice touch. To get to sights, you need to take taxis or tuktuks as its a bit further out. We usually went to the nearest sky train station and from there you can get to almost everywhere in bangkok easily. The hostel told us that 80 b would get us to train station, but usually we paid 100 - 150 b.

Loved this place!! It is such a cute little guesthouse. I have never felt so clean at a guesthouse and it made me feel pampered. The hostel is fairly close to Khao San Road which is nice. The only annoying part is that they do not have 24 hour reception, which made our late check-in a bit more annoying.

Would stay again. Clean, friendly, decent location, helpful staff the only thing that let it down was the uncomfortable bed!
