The Yard Bangkok Hostel

My 2nd time staying at this hostel. I love everything there. The service is good, quiet and chill hostel experience.

Chose to stay by photos and did not calculated right. I’m reviewing this to remind some of you who might expect something different like me. Me and my friend booked to stay in a room with private bathroom since we like the hostel culture however we are not really comfortable with sharing bathroom so we tend to paid for the private. What we did not expect was the hostel was built in the big Container blocks. However our room was top floor and at the end so didnt get much noise on the first night. But the A/C was broken and was so hot for a summer night in Bangkok. It was windy that night so we could hear the jackfruit tree infront of us was knocking us every 3 minutes and we did not even expect the curtain pole to fall down . The shower was not strong as well. We informed the hotel and thankfully the service was quick, they do everything that they can to make us comfortable by providing fan, changing the room next day as soon as other room is available but it became downgraded without bathroom attached so refunded the extra money as well. We much appreciated for that and there was a comp service recovery for us as well. The private room with sharing bathroom was okay with everything however as a container building, you hear footsteps passing by and some people talking loud in the yard at night. But we didnt mind since that’s the hostel’s culture. The sharing bathrooms were clean and shower pressure was also much better than the private. I would rate 2 stars just for the ambiance after the experience if there was no service this quick and accommodating.

This is an idyllic little slice of hippie heaven nestled in the busy city. The bathrooms and bunks are nice and clean. The AC in the rooms is very powerful. The best part of this hostel is the GORGEOUS breakfast they provide in the mornings! The only things that could make this hostel better is somehow mitigating the mosquitos. I was unable to sit outside during the day or at night because the bugs were so bad. Also, a more well stocked kitchen. They have 1 induction plug in burner that the restaurant also uses. So it is never in the kitchen and you always have to go searching for it. They also only have 1 pot and 1 pan and like 1 fork and cup? They need more silverware, plates, etc. If you are not planning on cooking any food, and you're not bothered by bugs, this place is perfect! Just something to keep in mind because I was under the impression they had a full kitchen. They DO however have coin operated laundry that washes very quickly, which was perfect! (50 baht for wash, 50 for dry)

I booked via their Homepage. When I arrived they told me they didn't get the booking because the site won't be used anymore. The hostel was fully booked. I got a provat room for one night. The second night I had to move to another hostel next to them. Noone offered me some help to carry my lagguage. They only seid sorry and that's it. No Drink for excuse or something else. At the end I hat to pay the amount for the private room even I booked a shared one. The booking-confusion was definitiv their fault not mine. It's sad cause the atmosphere and the people seemed to be very nice.

The staff is exceptionally friendly and always happy to help with all kinds of questions. It really has that private garden atmosphere which is super nice if you are looking for a more laid-back vibe.

Very good hostel and good vibes. This place is super convenient location, delicious food! The room is simple, but the bed is so comfy. Would recommend chilling out at the garden and socialize. Staff is super friendly and helpful.
