Guests like

Staff: Guests praise the front desk and services coordinator for being friendly and helpful, arranging cabs, storing luggage and recommending day trips.
Location: Reviews mention a quiet location that is still close to Khao San Road, with easy access to restaurants, taxis and transport to the airport.
Breakfast: Guests enjoy the included breakfast, noting a different menu daily, an omelette station and an all-you-can-eat option.

Guests mention

Room Size: Several guests mention the rooms are small, so asking for a larger room or a bigger desk at check-in may help if you need more space.
Housekeeping: Some guests report no housekeeping service during their stay, so it is worth asking the front desk about daily towel and cleaning schedules.
Room Views: Guests note that some rooms face neighboring buildings with no view, so requesting a room with a better outlook at check-in is a good idea.

Positive Points: The hotel provides a good stay experience overall. The breakfast option is affordable, and it was really enjoyable. They serve a different menu every day, with many varieties to try. We enjoyed having breakfast there for 3 days. A lift is available, which is convenient. The mosquito issue was handled after I reported it, and the room was better for the remaining days. Luggage storage available Negative Points: The room is quite small, with limited space to move around. On the first day, the room had many mosquitoes, and I couldn’t sleep properly the whole night. After raising the issue, they resolved it, but it affected the first night’s experience. They provide only 2 bottles of water per day, which may not be enough. Overall: A nice stay with good breakfast and helpful service, but the room size and mosquito issue need improvement.

We booked a two night stay here for our final nights in Bangkok before returning to Australia. The rooms were clean and tidy and the staff were very helpful and friendly however no clean towels or housekeeping service was provided during our stay. We extended our check out for an additional 500 baht which was fine however upon checkout we were charged an additional 50 baht which was for an empty complimentary water bottle that could not be located. We did not remove any glass water bottles from either room. Quiet location and close walk to a few different restaurants, 7 Eleven and various ATM and laundromats. Good central location not too far from China Town or Khaosan Rd. Shower was hot and good water pressure. Toilet facilities were clean. Airconditioning worked well and the rooms appeared to be free of dust, mould, smoke and excess moisture.

We had a lovely stay at 4 Monkeys. The room was lovely, the location was convenient, and the service was excellent. The services coordinator, Mike, went above and beyond what was expected. Very happy!

We stayed for one night only before heading to the airport the next day. The hotel had great location in Bangkok, great to go from and back to touristic places, bus station, airports, etc. however it is worth pointing that you should not expect a view or even to open curtains as you have direct view on the next door buildings apartments and they are really really close. The room is functional and the staff is very friendly and professional. We definitely recommend to ask for help at the front desk to book cabs as they will book you a cab with a trusted driver, price is agreed in advance, paid at the hotel reception and you can wait for the driver at the reception, which is really helpful and more comfortable than a grab. We were most grateful for this service. Swimming pool is located in the hotel across the street but is really easy to access so this is not bothering at all. Finally we appreciated a lot the free option to leave our luggages at the conciergerie for the day. Overall we thought that for the price, it is a great option for a short stay or for any person looking for a functional hotel at a very reasonable price.

3.5 stars. The decor was very interesting — I liked the monkey theme and the unique art. The rooms were very clean, we didn’t find any bugs and the bedsheets were mostly clean. The beds were very comfortable, and it was relatively cheap compared to other hotels in Bangkok. There was a nice view from the room, breakfast was included in the price and was decent, and there was also a rooftop bar with a nice view. However, the hotel is quite seriously in need of renovation. It’s clear it was probably stunning in its glory days, but those days are long gone — you can see peeling paint, worn gold finishes, and general wear and tear. Some things were also broken, like the shower shelf, and the bathroom doors were very loud and squeaky. The rooftop bar also looked a bit run down. They advertise free breakfast and a pool, but you actually have to cross the street to the other hotel for those. The location is also not ideal — it’s quite far from most places you’ll want to visit, and Grab rides can get expensive. On top of that, on our last night, the air conditioning started leaking and we had to change rooms in the middle of the night (although they did let us check out later because of that, which was appreciated).

January 2025 - We stayed at 4 Monkeys as the first stop on our honeymoon trip to Thailand. The staff was very helpful by recommending day trip options for us and nearby places to walk to. It was a great location with easy access to restaurants and taxi pickups to go out for the day. The room was small, but clean and updated. Also the breakfast that was included each day was amazing!

Good hotel! Good location! Its actually a two-hotel (the other one is across the street where you can have a pool and breakfast). Breakfast was 250baht, all you can eat! They have a chef preparing eggs/omelette. On my room the desk was tiny, so maybe worth to ask for a bigger one if you are working inside you room but there is plenty space outside for work or just hang out. I would recommend this place!

Great location, very calm and yet still close to the busy Khao San Road. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. We stayed at the beginning and end of our Thailand trip, and they kindly received several packages for us and stored our luggage for an entire week while we went to Koh Tao, with everything perfectly safe when we returned. The facilities are good, but unfortunately we had a terrible night’s sleep. The walls and ceiling creaked throughout the night, with strange noises coming from the room. There was also a very strange vibe, almost as if there was some kind of unusual presence in the room, which made it difficult to relax and I barely slept.
