Mangkon Hostel

Resting in the chaos

Pros: The bed and AC was very nice. The bathroom very clean. Good area to eat. Very central but far away from the noise. The receptionist was not very nice, maybe because she does not know English.

Spacious, penthouse apartment in great location

Pros: Very convenient location for access to river transport, interesting, independent shops and bars, within walking distance of huge market and all that Chinatown is known for.

Cons: Bedside lights would be nice

Pros: In Songwat street , in Chinatown. You can walk everywhere in Chinatown. Really nice and clean room, in the second building outside of the noisy street.

Cons: It was smelling a bit mold but the room was really clean, all white and with all the equipment needed.

Pros: Staying second time, room was comfortable and quiet even though located right above building entrance. (last time on high floor) Aircon and TV with Netflix option a plus. Balcony is convenient.

Cons: This room has a bit of moisture problem in the bathroom, the commode under sink had remains of door hinges rusted away in unbelievable fashion, little mildew dots here and there, bathroom window handle missing (perhaps part of the problem?) that one we worked around by tieing a piece of string.

Pros: Excelent location in amazing and chaotic China Town, however the hotel is in the quiet street! Clean, spacious and comfortable.

Wonderful!

Pros: This hotel is very good value for money. The whole room was extremely clean and the beds were very comfortable, exactly as pictured. There was a water dispenser in the lobby too, and the air conditioning worked well. The location was perfect, right on Songwat Road which has lots of eateries. It’s also round the corner from the pier for the boats and only a short walk from Chinatown, the night market, and the MRT blue line. When we checked in, the staff took us to a second building across the street, which was just off the main road and so our room was nice and quiet. I would absolutely stay here again, it was really really good.

Cons: Sometimes the shower drains more slowly than other times (maybe if other people are showering at the same time) so water can collect in the corner of the bathroom. Still, it does drain away in time, so it’s not a big problem. Also, there was some aesthetic damage to the back of the bathroom door, and no bedside table. We ended up using the stool from the vanity as the bedside table instead! Other than that, there were no faults :)

I will come back

Pros: Great location, close to everything. Very clean, quick wifi, comfortable beds, helpful person at the reception, self check in available at night and you can leave the bags. There is also a nice common kitchen, but with all the street food nearby i didnt use it:)

Good hotel in the middle of Chinatown

Pros: We loved staying in Chinatown. Location is great. Nice and clean hotel and room, nice communal terrace. Hot and cold water dispenser and hairdryer provided. Luggage storage after check out possible. Cleaning staff were friendly.

Cons: Reception staff was not really unfriendly but never smiled or greeted friendly, they simply did their job. No microwave, no washing machine.

Pros: It was in a nice area with loads of cafes. Bed was comfy and room a good size.

Cons: The area didn’t have many restaurants open in the evening, but you can walk to china town where you can find loads of places to eat

Greatest value for money in perfect location

Pros: The location is absolutely excellent. Walking distance to everything in Chinatown and close to boats and subway. We were so lucky to get a nice room with a lovely balcony were the view was great. Really enjoyed staying here again and it is great value for money.
