Issara House Bangkok

I think the Issara will become very popular soon with Western tourists. I stayed 13 nights late November 2022. It's location is excellent within 80 metres of the new Itsaraphap MRT and about 500 metres from Wat Arun. There's a bus (57) outside hotel will take you close to the popular IconSiam which is a 30 minute walk from the hotel. There's a Big C extra about 15 minutes walk (or 57 bus journey) Wongwian Yai old railway station and market is about 25 minute walk or again number 57 bus ride if you wanted to travel to Mahachai and onto the Railway market The room I stayed in had everything I wanted. Good aircon x 2, a lobby, big room, fridge,tv. Bed was big and sleep quality good. Wifi very good throughout my stay. There was a breakfast/dinning area which has many tables chairs free coffee/tea, kettles, microwaves, oven, cutlery, pots, toaster, distilled water, toilet, sink to clean dishes. This is a great idea as you can buy 7/11 or supermarket food and cook yourself. There was a large 7/11 just finishing completion next door between the hotel and the MRT. Just 2 or 3 weakness's stops this accommodation being 5/5. TV stations all Thai and boring. I told the boss Kyle who said a Smart tv package was possible with Englsih speaking more sport channels. Secondly yes reception not manned for long periods and when it was manned it was a young lad who spoke no English. Kyle the boss is a good, easy going bloke, and I managed to negotiate discount being there nearly two weeks. But unfortunately he rarely seemed to be there. Finally being very leafy, plants, trees water features and when I stayed lots of rain, mozzies are everywhere and other not so delightful creatures. All in all the positives far outweigh the negatives and would certainly recommend this boutique style establishment. Monthly rental I believe is also possible at this place and can be negotiated with Kyle
