An cheap and affordable hotel if you are not someone who's in Bangkok for shopping and one who's not extremely fussy about the outlook and living condition of the hotel as long as it's clean, well, basically.
by Cynthia Leow from Singapore, 30 Apr 08
Bangkok City Inn is located VERY near to Central World and is about 5 mins walk from Big C and 10 mins walk from Pratunam market. Very convenient as the hotel is in a very central location. Way out from the hotel to the main road is a LITTLE dark and dangerous though coz' a brother ('fishbowl' hotel) is just directly opposite the hotel. However, it's a great stay for someone who likes to stay around the Pratunam shopping area.
The hotel, like its price, is not exactly luxurious. The building is old, lift is old, lobby walkway, room is old, etc. well......., get the idea? EVERYTHING is old. The room is old and rather small with mosquitoes (I didn't meet any cockr***** so i guess I'm quite lucky in that sense). But it's 'live-able'. Bathroom is old but rather clean.
The staff is not very friendly and their command of English is minimal. Warning: Do not attempt to talk too much.
The buffet breakfast is quite delicious though! Small variety but delicious AND healthy.
A good hotel if you are not someone who's in Bangkok for shopping and one who's not extremely fussy about the outlook and living condition of the hotel as long as it's clean, well, basically.
Hope this review helps! :)

Will return again
by Cat Wong from Singapore, 15 Apr 08
Convenience location. Room rather small for 3 persons but value for money. Morning breakfast was ok. Easy access for shopping area. Staffs are quite helpful but not all of them. Will return again when visit Bangkok.

Great location. Clean rooms. Nothing over the top but affordable and comfortable. Check in staff friendly and helpful too. Easy distance to shops, trains and airport bus. Good local eateries all around.

A little old but worth the price
by Chris from Frankfurt, Germany, 5 Jun 05
The Bangkok City Inn has become quite old. It has been a really good hotel long ago. Now it's a good place for a cheap stay. The location is great: near World Trade Plaza it is in the middle of one of the main shopping areas in Bangkok. Siam Center is as close as the Pratunam Market where you can buy cheap clothings. The breakfast is really no big deal. It's a buffet with toast, coffee, marmalade and some fruit. Also you can have Thai breakfast. The staff is helpful and friendly. All in all the hotel is worth its price, but if you look for real good comfort and service search for another hotel :)

We stayed for 1 week and found it to be very central. The staff were great and the breakfasts were terrific. Great value for money, clean, no smells and very comfortable.

Fabulous value for money!!
by Violet King from Spain., 18 Sep 05
Fabulous spot to stay. Good food. Service with a smile from the staff. Value for money is amazing. Fabulous place if you want to tear around or just relax and be lazy. It didn't have a pool when I was there so I plan to go back again in 2006 and make the most of the changes.
Not expensive, but very functional, clean and a lovely place to stay.

Great value
by Anonymous user from USA, 16 Nov 05
I've probably stayed here a dozen times over the past four years, so I obviously like this place. Simply put, you get real value for your money. I have to say, I can't think of any major complaints I've had here, which is why I keep coming back.
The breakfast is more than adequate, the staff is professional and the rooms are very functional and clean. Of course, the best part is the location. Outstanding. You are in the middle of a major shopping area, with plenty of cinemas and shopping malls, etc. And it's nice to be so close to a new Big C. The Skytrain is a short eight-minute walk. While there are tons of nicer hotels in BKK, I don't know that you'd get better value.

Will return again!
by Wong from Singapore, 27 Nov 05
Room is simply furnished. Good for traveller who just need a room to sleep at night after a long day out. No hair dryer in the room. Housekeeping also have none to provide. Hotel rooms installed with flat 3 pins electrical wall socket which is not suitable for most countries and the hotel do not have any adapter to loan. Breakfast spread is small and changes everyday which is fine for a small hotel like Bangkok City Inn.
Will consider to stay on next visit because of the GOOD LOCATION.

Will be our choice for the next trip
by Lim William from Singapore, 12 Jan 06
My family had a week's stay and was very happy with its location. Although it's a lane from the main road, it's brightly lighted. Night bazaar and shopping centres like Pratunam Center, Platinum Mall, Central World, Siam Paragon and Big C are just 5 to 10 minutes walking distance away.
Our room/toilet is relatively clean but the bed is rather hard. There is a slight unpleasant smell in our room. Could be from the carpet. Breakfast is pleasant and main dishes changes daily.
On the whole, I will classify this hotel as value for money.

Robbed in my Room!
by Anonymous User from Sydney, 6 Jun 06
In April 2006 I was robbed in my room at the Bangkok City Inn. The hotel offered no assistance. I even had to walk to and from the police station as I had no money and the hotel staff wouldn't even phone the police for me.
When the police investigated the hotel had "lost" the security video and lied to the police about me. (They said I "often" stayed there and "always" took prostitutes)
I do not recommend this hotel!
