The Unforgotten B&B

We chose this hotel to be close to the Chinese new year festivities, and it was an ideal location - a five minute walk from the entrance to China town, and a 10 minute walk to an underground station. The hotel has lots of great features. We were greeted with a welcome drink and snack by the very friendly receptionist, who then took our bags to our room. Amazing Thai breakfasts were freshly cooked each day - much more food than we could manage. On our final day we left early for the airport, and were given a breakfast sandwich to take with us, which was very kind. The room had good air conditioning, a fan, a fridge and a safe. There were welcome snacks, toiletries, dressing gowns and a pair of slippers (you are asked to leave your outdoor shoes in the hall). The hotel has a lot of character - a lot of thought has gone into the decor. However, our room was on the 4th floor and the stairs became increasingly steep with each floor. This concerned me, particularly as I couldn’t see any alternative escape routes in case of a fire. The hotel cats, sleeping in the heat, could also make it more difficult to navigate the stairs. We had a private bathroom on the same floor, rather than an en-suite. The bedroom had a large, comfortable bed, but that did mean there wasn’t much room to move around, or unpack suitcases. There was a set of drawers to store clothes in. The hotel is in a lively, authentic (rather than touristy) area, and that means there is noise from the street at night.

I'm writing this even as I sadly wait to check out - I spent three nights here and could have stayed a lot longer. The Unforgotten B&B is one of the most singular places I have ever stayed at. It's a lovely family-run converted tea house that has retained all its character. The reception and dining area is amazing, with beautiful plates on the wall and knick knacks in every corner. Each room is lovingly and thoughtfully decorated, and has all the amenities including a safe and a mini fridge, and the staff even provide a dental kit and ear plugs should you need it. There's also a tiny welcome kit with candy and snacks and it's so sweet! As a solo traveller I got the smallest room, which was a bit dimly lit but which had ample space. Be warned though, for this specific room the bathroom, though private, is across the hall, so there's a little trek involved. There's also a no-outisde-shoes policy for the room, but they provide slippers for you to wear indoors. The higher floors are approached by steep and dark stairs so it might not be ideal for those with mobility issues. That said, I had zero problems getting up and down them, and the staff are happy to assist with luggage. There's also breakfast included with the room, which is home-made and some of the best meals I've had in Thailand. The best part of my day here was coming down to breakfast to be greeted with smiles and cheery good mornings and fantastic coffee that they hand grind afresh every day. The location of the B&B is also perfect - far enough from the chaos of Yaowarat Road but close enough to stroll down. And there's fantastic street food steps away from the hotel, and the very happening Soi Nana with all the hip bars - Teens of Thailand, Tep, Asia Today - are a two-minute walk away. In all, The Unforgotten B&B has been truly the most unforgettable stay of my two-week Thailand trip. I cannot recommend it enough.

In the middle of Chinatown, with temples nearby, and walkable access to public transportation. The place was quaint, cozy, clean, and confortable, and the staff was very friendly and helpful. They served traditional Thai breakfast, that was very good, albeit different than what we are used to...but hey, its the reason why we travel.

Loved our stay at The Unforgotten B&B! We were able to check in early after giving a heads up on our arrival. The room was clean and spacious, beds comfortable, bathroom small but functional (some brighter lighting would work wonders at night!). Breakfast was incredible home cooked fare that left us satiated ahead of a long day in and around the city, and we enjoyed the kitsch and chintzy vibe throughout, as well as befriending NiNi and DumDum the cats. Conversations with Mos were interesting, and even after well over a decade of visiting Thailand regularly, we still learnt new things about the country and its culture which we love so much. The neighbourhood is lively at times due to nearby businesses, but not so much it affected our sleep. Street food stalls, cafes, train station, MRT, massage (Lek Hua Lamphong) and 7-11 all within a few minutes' walk after leaving the guesthouse. Grab rides very easy to book if you need a car or motorbike taxi. Would happily return - thank you Mos and team!

Intimate guest house, excellent helpful staff, spotlessly clean, best traditional breakfasts I've had, great location, close to Chinatown but superb street food right outside. If you're on the top floor, it's a steep stairway but worth the enclosed orchid filled balcony.

We had two nights in Bangkok. The Unforgotten BB was all we could have asked for and more. The two staff we met was so kind and helpfull. Rooms was nice, cosy and clean. The area is lively, authentic, a bit noisy, but not more than expected in the heart of Bangkok. We will return if we come back one day.

We loved this funky place in the heart of Bangkok's Chinatown, crammed with antiques of all kinds, featuring narrow wooden staircases leading up to the fourth floor, where our room was located, and best of all, offering wonderful service from the manager A-Moss and receptionist Nain. On our first morning, I came downstairs early to do some work with my computer and sat at the table where we would eat breakfast in 30 minutes or so. Within a few moments I was served a cup of hot, delicious coffee. Nain is quiet but very attentive and kind; A-Moss is talkative and helpful and funny and full of knowledge, which he seems to be bursting to share. Highly recommended, a highlight of our trip to Bangkok.
