Bottom Line

This two-and-half pearl, 36-room hostel in trendy Silom, within an easy walk of the skytrain, shopping, dining, and entertainment. It's geared toward young backpackers on a budget, with modern, industrial-style decor and a communal atmosphere. The spacious common area has basic kitchen facilities and an outdoor terrace, plus a movie screening room with free popcorn and slouchy bean bag chairs. There's no lunch or dinner service, but the cafe serves alcoholic drinks, light snacks, and breakfast for a fee. Clean, air-conditioned dormitories have bunk beds and shared bathrooms, while private rooms add double beds, TVs, towels, and en-suite bathrooms. Wi-Fi is free throughout the property. Alternatively, NapPark Hostel has a similar vibe and is closer to Khaosan Road, Bangkok's infamous backpacker party street.

Lub d Bangkok Silom

Scene

Clean, sociable hostel with industrial-style decor and a young vibe

The four-story Lub D Bangkok has a fresh, modern feel and low-key communal atmosphere. Geared toward backpackers on a budget, it has a huge common area that's designed for relaxing and socializing, lined with cozy seating areas and long wooden tables where guests can sip coffee and use their laptops. The entire hostel has industrial-chic decor, looking more like the headquarters of a trendy tech company than a budget property. It has a stripped-back design with smooth concrete walls, plywood doors, and a glass roof that floods the central stairwell with natural light. 

The cafe has an outdoor terrace with bright yellow tables and chairs, where guests can socialize in the early evenings with ice-cold beers. The movie-screening room is another popular spot, where guests can chill on comfortable bean bags with some free popcorn. The hostel has a young vibe that mostly attracts European backpackers, though older guests sometimes stay here.

Location

In the Silom District, a 10-minute walk to Chong Nonsi Skytrain station

The hostel is located in the popular Silom District of Bangkok, on a small road nestled between hotels and cafes. It offers backpackers a more chilled-out location away from Silom Road, but there are still plenty of lively bars, local restaurants, and shopping areas within walking distance. Bustling Patpong Market, with its street food and seedy go-go bars, is a 10-minute walk from the hostel, while Lumpini Park is 20-minute walk. The Chong Nonsi Skytrain Station is just a 10-minute walk from the hostel. Plenty of popular attractions are a tuk-tuk or taxi ride from the property, with the Grand Palace, Wat Pho, MBK Shopping Mall, and Khaosan Road all around 20 to 30 minutes away (though this depends on traffic, which is often horrible in Bangkok). Budget up to an hour to reach either Suvarnabhumi International Airport on Don Mueang Airport, as -- once again -- traffic is wild in this city.

Rooms

Modern, air-conditioned dorms and private rooms; plus a ladies-only dorm

This Lub d Bangkok has a total of 36 air-conditioned dormitories and private rooms. Like the rest of the hostel, they're decorated in an industrial style with gray concrete walls and minimal furnishings, accented with bright red metalwork bed frames. All dorms are spotlessly clean, with bright windows and comfortable bunk beds equipped with reading lights and private charging points. Unfortunately, the beds lack privacy curtains. Guests staying in dorms have access to large lockers, plus spotless shared bathrooms with showers, toilets, hairdryers, and pumped toiletries. Private rooms are similarly designed, adding double beds, towels, flat-screen TVs, safes, and private bathrooms. Wi-Fi is free in all rooms. There's also a ladies-only dorm, which offers a more secluded location, though the hostel is generally safe and secure with all rooms requiring key card access. Some guests report noise from other guests, but this is to be expected in any hostel setting.

Features

Movie-screening room, cafe with outdoor seating, basic kitchen facilities, coin-operated laundry, and free Wi-Fi

One of the hotel's big selling points is its spacious communal area. It's a great place to socialize or chill out, with long wooden tables and cozy seating areas, plus a computer station, tour desk, and shelf filled with books and magazines. The movie-screening room is another popular spot, with comfortable bean bag chairs facing a big TV screen (DVDs are available) and free popcorn. The cafe serves ice-cold beers, light snacks, and a continental breakfast for a fee, but there's no lunch/dinner service. Breakfast is simple, but decent, consisting of toast, croissants, fresh fruits, teas, and coffee.

Guests also have access to basic kitchen facilities like microwaves and fridges. The hostel lacks fitness and leisure facilities, but guests receive discounted use of the fitness center and outdoor pool at the nearby Nara Hotel. Other services include a 24-hour front desk, organized social activities, coin-operated laundry machines, free long-term luggage storage, and free parking. Wi-Fi is free throughout the property.
