I think the Best Western would be better described as a Motel. If you have a limited budget and want a (very) basic room with a shower, bed, tv and running water then maybe this is the hotel for you. If you're more suited to the 3+ stars and above standards then I suggest you avoid this place. The room... more

My husband and I stayed in this hotel for 3 nights before visiting the islands. I would best describe it as a motel, but with much more tasteful and modern decor. We were advised to stay near the night markets on Khao San Road which was only a small tuk tuk ride away - 100 baht, or say AUD $3.... more

I stayed at the hotel in jan for three nights. The room smelled, the bathroom had hair and comb webs in. I was told the room that i wanted was not avaliable, then when we asked to be moved it magically came avalible. so we paid more for a that was supposedly the best room. the rooms - aren't great... more

Well first off I loved this place and my husband hated it! It is located close to the Khao San road which may or may not suit you - so before you book make sure you know what area of town you want to be in. It's not located in the best of places but in my opinion it is... more

The rating of two stars is for the location alone. The hotel itself is nice and would be a good place to stay if in a more convenient location. Booked the hotel at the airport. The hotel itself is clean and the room I had was quite nice. Clean, nice bed, had a working easy to use safe, and sharp... more

The Best Western Swana is a budget priced hotel with good clean amenities for a good night's sleep. Only big negative point with the hotel is its location. Its located out of the city centre (Siam Square) area and nearer to the river. There's no BTS or underground anywhere nearby so you'd have to take a taxi everywhere and to... more

we arrived to find the hotel underneath a flyover in the most run down, 'out of town' dirtiest horrible area!!! we were gutted to say the least.!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The road the hotel is on (if you can call it a road) consists of only deralict buildings with boarded up windows, huge amounts of litter & torn big bags by all the... more

We stayed at the Swana hotel for 3 nights in September, initially booked 2 nights but added a third as we were flying to Phi Phi the following morning. The only major problem we had with the hotel is finding it, the staff told us they have been open for about 12 months, but it seems like the news hasn't... more

We stayed here for 3 days last week. It is an excellent place to stay for a few days in Bangkok. The staff were friendly and helpful, even lending us use of their power-plug adaptor and delivering free hot water at night. The rooms (including the bathroom) were very clean. We paid S$54 per night (USD 36) and it is... more
