The Yard Hostel Bangkok

Nice Hostel in Bangkok, close to Ari BTS station. The staff is very friendly and the rooms clean. The chill out area in the backyard is beautiful and the people quite nice.

I loved the vibe of the place right from when I entered. The place was clean, very comfortable and in a quiet neighbourhood. Pingpong was VERY helpful and always had a smile and a recommendation for some really good restaurants, currency exchange places, shopping, etc. She also went out of her way to help me plan my travel from Chiangmai to the islands. The Yard is not located close to the touristy spots but was very easily accessible by Grab and/or the BTS. The area it is in has roadside vendors selling local delicacies to fancy restaurants as well as low budget eateries. I arrived at an ungodly hour and had place to rest in the common room as well as the common shower/wash rooms to freshen up. My room and bathroom were clean, luckily I had booked a room with a private washroom which allowed me to relax when I wanted to and interact with the lovely guests from all around the world when I wanted to be social. The AC was superb especially after a long hot day exploring the city.

Loved this Hostel! This neighbourhood and the vibe of this place is a haven from the business of Bangkok. There are great cafes/restaurants/street food around the place. It’s got a charming vibe, lots of trees, clean places, very new looking. The hostel itself is immersed in nature as you can see. That was such a calm to return to so if you’re a nature person go for this place! My partner and I stayed in the private room with bathroom. It was very cool, had a mezzanine layer for the bed. Whole wall is window so you have a great view of the backyard and the trees. The place was clean

Super cute hostel in a fun neighborhood (lots of cafes and restaurants nearby, plus less than 10 min to BTS Ari station). I only stayed one night, but the outdoor and indoor common areas were super chill and spacious. Great place to read a book for a while or grab beers with folks, people were really friendly (seemed like a good social vibe). The staff were awesome, they let me check out a bit late and keep my towel for a few hours to shower after check out. The included breakfast was basic but yummy, a lot of fruit with yogurt and bread. My bed was comfy with good curtains and the wifi was pretty good. Would love to stay here again but for longer!

The Yard is an extremely cozy experience; not something I expected to find in the middle of Bangkok. As the name implies, the buildings are set up around a central courtyard that is absolutely packed with trees, plants, and seating / lounging areas. It definitely feels like an oasis of calm in the middle of the bustling city. The rest of the hostel's concept just reinforces this. There is a drinking water refill station and a cute little board to mark how many plastic bottles were spared a trip to the landfill. The breakfast is both delicious and very sustainably sourced from local farms. Homemade yoghurt? Yes please. The staff is great. Any sensible request, they can help you with and any questions about what to do, where to eat, or what is happening culturally in Bangkok right now, they will tell you about. The private rooms themselves are basic but clean and the AC is more than capable of keeping them at your preferred temperature. The mattresses are hard by Western standards but normal for SEA. The area of Ari is full of great restaurants about a 7 minute walk away. That is also the nearest Sky Train station. If you are wavering on booking a room, do it. This place sells out constantly and I just got lucky that someone else changed their plans.
