PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!! READ THIS
We are away from KHAOSAN road and old town.
We offer the largest green common area of any hostel in Bangkok—a peaceful space you won't find elsewhere.
The first hostel in Thailand where earns LEVEL 2 Sustainability Badge from Hostelworld.

— Location —
The Yard is nestled in Ari—Bangkok's #1 ranked neighborhood, known for its hip cafés, rich culture, friendly street vendors, and delicious restaurants. If your plan is to visit all the temples, party on Khaosan Road, or take part in super social activities, we recommend staying somewhere closer to the old town. But if you're looking for a calm, authentic experience in a cool, local neighborhood, we’d love to welcome you here at The Yard.

— Vibes —
At The Yard, we’re all about peaceful connections and meaningful conversations. You won’t find pub crawls or quizzes here—what we offer is a calm space to unwind, meet like-minded people, and soak in the beauty of nature around you. We believe too many activities can overwhelm the real gatherers—the ones who love to stay at a physical community like ours, where connections form naturally. Whether you’re enjoying our cozy garden, taking a Muay Thai class, or just sharing stories with fellow travelers, we hope you feel at home in our little oasis. 💚

— Sustainability —
One thing that makes our hostel different (from your typical hostel) is that we aim to reduce our environmental impact as much as possible.

When we designed the hostel we took our impact on the environment into consideration. For example,
- Every direct booking, we donate 1%-7% to indigenous village in Northern Thailand to prevent forest burn.
- We used recycled materials to build the rooms, which are actually old shipping containers.
- We also insulated the rooms with recycled paper to reduce energy consumption from air conditioning.
- Another way we reduce our impact is by using less plastic. For instance, we don't sell plastic bottles of water and we encourage guests to refill their bottles.
- We also use overstock fabrics for your bedsheets instead of producing new ones.
- Breakfast is served as a set to reduce food waste, but you can always refill until you’re full!
- We made homemade yogurt and jam to reduce single use plastic.


— Philosophy —
Our philosophy is reflected in our name: in English, ‘Yard’ refers to an open space next to a home, while in Thai, it means ‘family.’ We aim to provide a living space that feels warm and welcoming, just like family. At The Yard, we bring people together to share stories, build connections, and learn about sustainable living as we work toward BUILDING ONE WORLD FAMILY.

I had a decent stay, I was only there for two nights and it was clean, there were key cards for the doors so I felt safe and it was in an alright area though a little out of the centre but I didn’t mind as it was a resting stop for me before I moved on!
