Based on the price I really wasn’t expecting much but I was pleasantly surprised! It’s in a nice quiet area right by the river, five minute walk away from Khao San Road. The staff was friendly and helpful, the wifi was good and the water pressure in the shower was good. The room and lobby was nice and clean, I didn’t see any bugs anywhere and there was no unpleasant smell that I’ve experienced in many other hotels. Overall great value for the price and I will definitely stay here again.

a somewhat dark and small but comfortable room
I moved to this hotel from a bigger one nearby that did not have room for me for the last three days of my stay in Bangkok. I had the mid-range room - which was very small - a large mattress on a slightly-raised wooden platform, a bench on which two people could sit side by side, and a lttte bit of floor (and a closet and mini-bar fridge). Bathroom was very small - no one over the age of about 6 could sit straigh forward on the toilet.. Water pressure was low. No hot water in sink (not a failure, just not provided at all - only one tap.) But the bed was comfortable and the room was quiet. Staff were helpful and friendly. So if you just want a place to put your bags down and sleep, this can do. It feels safe and it is in the Khao San neighbourhood full of backpackers and the hostels and small restaurants (lots on the sidestreets) that serve them and the locals. An agreeable area to stroll in, again safe and friendly. (And if you want a "Jack Armani" suit, you can get one made around the corner from this hotel!) If you need to work or read seriously, this is not the place for you, unless you can read or work in bed. The bench is not comfortable after an hour or so, though it's padded (as am I). There is not enough light to read a book. If you are reading a phone or computer or e-reader, no problem. I did some work one afternoon in the small restaurant on the ground floor of the hotel - part of the lobby of the building. That would not do at a meal time.

Good value hotel, with great location. Room had all the amenities we needed with a pretty modern decor. Service was awesome. We were disappointed to know the upstairs jacuzzi didn’t have any water in it throughout our stay. Also, on our last day the sheet accidently popped off revealing large mattress stains which terrified us a little.

Don't have expectations
Super cheap place which is great. But there's reasons it's so cheap. Hotel staff weren't overly friendly or helpful. Room was extremely small, just enough space for the bed. But if it's just for 1 night and you're wanting to save money it's fine. If you're sensitive to traffic noise it was very audible from our room.

Great value, good location and clean
Great value. Ideal location walking distance to Khao San Road, water ferry and Grand Palace. Lots of shops, bars and eateries nearby along with convenience store etc. Room was small but clean and everything I needed was there. Lift access from third floor upwards only so be prepared to walk up stairs. Restaurant in the lobby area serving breakfast and food throughout the day. Would definitely stay again. A good value base to explore Bangkok and felt safe for lone travellers.

Great location & food
We stayed at this hotel because we'd enjoyed a great meal on a previous visit and loved the quirky stylish decor. Located by the river only 10mins from Khao San/Rambrutti area, this hotel is a great base for a stay in Bangkok. Our 'Super-deluxe' room had lovely decor but was slightly awkward in design with a very low and typically hard bed (usual for Thailand), lots of sharp edges/different floor levels (stubbed toes!) and shower pressure was poor (at least 5min wait for decent flow). However WI-FI worked well 95% of the time, staff were very helpful and friendly, all meals were tasty, and NO bugs in bathroom, which was great! Would stay here again without hesitation - good value for money.

Great place, people and location!
We loved this hotel. They should be charging a lot more! Nice size rooms, very clean, run by very friendly people, nice little restaurant with good food and great location for sight seeing. We walked to the palace (15 to 20 minutes) but some people may prefer a tuk tuk or the river boat. Everything was great!

The hotel was very clean and the staff were awesome. Room was quite small but very cosy. Japanese style room layout which was a bit different. There is also a bar/restaurant on the ground floor which was inexpensive with reasonable food and wide choice.

Cute but too small and weird smell
This place has a lot of good things going for it. It's easy walking distance to Khao San Road but removed from the crowds. There's a great little blues bar across the street. The decor of the lobby, stairwells and rooms is cute and cozy. The big disappointment is the size of the rooms--barely enough room to walk around the bed, with the toilet and shower jammed alongside it accessed by a sliding glass door. The air-conditioning system was weak and the windows were sealed shut--awful. Similarly, they need to open some doors and windows in the lobby because a foul smell hit us every time we walked in the door.

Good hotel for the price.
We stayed here one night after the nearby Tara Place was full. The room was quite small but clean and had everything we needed. The bed was comfortable (if a little hard, like they all seem to be in Thailand). The only minor complaints were that the air conditioning was quite noisy, and the safe didn't seem to work and wasn't screwed down anyway, which was a bit annoying in a first floor room where the window was accessible from a flat roof. Overall good.

Nice room, good service, pleasant stay.
We stayed at Diamond House twice, once for three nights at the beginning of our travels and again for a night 6 weeks later. The rooms are very pleasant, clean, and the location is very good, conveniently located close to the backpackers area but far away enough to be a bit more shielded from the noise. The staff are very friendly and the downstairs restaurant is pretty good. We had several small meals there and did not have a single bad dish. It isn't the most amazing hotel ever but it is certainly more comfortable than most accommodation in SE Asia! Definitely recommended, only downside was the wifi was very slow.

Two blocks from Khao San Rd. Easy access to river boat express to get to the Grand Palace, Wat Pho, Wat Arun, Chinatown. 7 eleven and money exchange close by. Lots of street food stalls at night. Ate at the hotel restaurant for breakfast. Good English, pleasant staff. Our son left an item at this hotel and they forwarded it to our next hotel in Chiang Mai at no cost.

Loved the decor and the location, the food were really nice,roof toop romantic (though the stairs up there could be a risk). The only negative is that the room was smaller than I had presumed, and the traffic outside was a little bit noisy. All in all good value for money, pleasant stay.

Nice, affordable hotel
We had partly booked this hotel because it claimed to have 24 hour room service and we figured after such a long day traveling and it being so late, we figured this seemed like a better option than trying to find something else. Apparently, 24 hour room service in Thailand seems to mean 24 hour "front desk attendant". So, the restaurant closes and there is not food available at the hotel after that. But the hotel staff was very nice. The room was clean and pretty nice. There is a very nice rooftop garden area with nice views. Good price. Would stay here again.

The hotel was just as amazing as in the photos. The decor was tasteful, very upscale look for such an affordable hotel located near one of the most well-known roads in Bangkok -- Khaosan Rd. The staff were friendly, the WiFi was accessible from the room and the room was very clean. I will definitely stay at Diamond House next time I visit Bangkok.

Nice hotel close to Khao San Road
Hotel staff was very friendly and accommodating. Didn't have our reservation from Expedia on file but showed them our confirmation and "upgraded" us. Reality, can't imagine what they would've put us in. The hotel was modern with upgrades. The room was very nice and clean. A tad on the small side but that seems to be the norm in Asia. It was basic with hot shower, a/c, fridge. The bed was hard but got used to it. Had breakfast at the restaurant and was good. Great location. Walking distance to popular attractions but quiet at night. A 10 minute walk to Khao San Road.

Nice hotel, central location
The hotel is about five minutes walk from Khao San Road, which means you benefit from the central location, but it is in a quieter neighbourhood. The room we had was small, but it was nicely furnished and clean. The bed was a traditional Thai one, consisting of a mattress on a raised floor.
