9.6/10 Exceptional! (274 reviews)

We had a great stay at Volve Hotel Bangkok. The staff were extremely courteous and attentive, always ready to help with a smile. The room was spotless and well-maintained, making for a very comfortable stay. Location wise — it’s tucked away in a quiet area, offering a peaceful retreat from the busy city, yet still within easy walking distance to the BTS station. The Italian restaurant (Bacco-Osteria da Sergio) opposite Volve has fabulous food! A perfect balance of convenience and calm. Highly recommended!
