Khaosan Cozy Hostel

I recently spent three days and two nights in Bangkok, and I can confidently say this hostel was the perfect place for female solo travelers. I highly recommend this spot for anyone looking to explore Bangkok! The hostel is ideally situated on Khao San Road, a vibrant area teeming with local delicacies, souvenir shops, and nightlife entertainment. It's also within walking distance to major attractions like The Grand Palace, The National Gallery, and The National Museum of Bangkok. This central location made it incredibly convenient for sightseeing. The hostel itself is clean and beautifully decorated, creating a welcoming atmosphere. I felt secure in my bedroom, which featured a modern card security system for access. This added layer of safety was reassuring for a solo traveler. One of the standout aspects of my stay was the host, Summer, who speaks excellent English. Her ability to communicate effectively was a tremendous help, especially when I had questions about directions or local recommendations. In my opinion, this is the best hostel for solo travelers in Bangkok. The combination of a great location, a clean and secure environment, and helpful staff makes it an ideal choice for anyone visiting the city. I can't recommend it enough!

Overall, I did not like this hostel. The atmosphere was terrible. Hardly anyone speaks to each other. The staff doesn’t seem to care much and actually takes up space in the small common area watching videos on speaker. The bed was comfy but the music from khaosan road is so incredibly loud that you can hear it all through the room. Without earplugs there’s no way to fall asleep here. The bathrooms were okay. The kitchen has a microwave, cups and glasses and a few big plates. There is a fridge but you’re not allowed to use it which doesn’t make sense to me at all.
