Great base in Khao San Road area

Found this a great base in the Khao San Road area, nice social atmosphere to meet travellers from around the world. I stayed in a private room, which while on the small side but had everything I needed. Olive and the other staff are great, and organise regular evening activities (for example, a trip to night markets). There's a rooftop bar too, although it felt quite separate from the rest of the hostel. Would definitely stay again.

Great hostel, room was very clean and comfortable bed, good AC. You can make your own breakfast for free which was good. This place is a 10 minute walk to Khao San Rd. And it’s 400 Baht set price for a taxi to the airport (Don Mueang) if you ask the staff there.

Great, but loud at night.

Facilities were great, including free breakfast, but didn't get a lot of sleep. They don't seem to have a "quiet time" so there were loud parties at 3am, 4am, 5am... waking me up at night. Even after bringing this up with staff, they were unable to stop the noise. So it's great spot, but stay away from the balcony room or rooms right by the stairwell if you actually want any sleep.

Great stay!

We had a great stay at Jam Hostel Bangkok! If you want to experience Bangkok while at the same time hang out with people from different corners of the world, then you should definitely go here. The hostel arranges activities every day that you can participate in for free. While we were there, Xi (the front-desk manager) one evening gave us (the guests at the hostel) a guided visit at two different temples, then took us to a great Indian restaurant and then to a rooftop bar in Chinatown. Then another day she arranged to take us to a floating market and then to a Muay Thai fight in the evening. It was great! If you want to experience different things in Bangkok and at the same time get to know new people, then you should stay at Jam Hostel. The location was also great, you can walk to Khao San road as well as to the Grand Palace and the temple Wat Pho (with the reclining Buddha). We are very happy that we found this hostel in Bangkok and would have loved to stay even longer!

Bien

Un très bon accueil, les filles sont adorables. Le petit déjeuner est formidable, le fait de se servir est un plus. La chambre nous parait un peu petite et le fait que le lit soit collé contre le mur sans possibilité de le déplacer est très dérangeant. A part ceci, il n'y a rien à dire, la propreté est irreprochable.

I have stayed in 4 hostels in Bangkok and this was by far the best one. The rooms are clean and modern, the people were friendly and the staff are super nice and helpful. They have activities everyday that you can join. Great atmosphere at the bar on the top floor. Will visit again before i leave Bangkok.

We loved the common area, where it was really easy to meet new people. Also the staff girls were super nice and helpful and gave us tips on where to go and helped us booking a bus for our next stop of our journey. Usually they have free activities every day (like going to the night market,..), but unfortunately there was no event happening when we were there. Yet they still organised a private one after we asked them :) The room (we stayed in a private) was super clean, cozy and had a nice A/C and a fridge. Even though the hostel was pretty full and there is a rooftop bar with live music, it was still really quite in the room. They even cleaned our room every day and gave us new towels. Breakfast (fruits, cereals and toast) free and available until noon. The location is perfect to hop on a taxi boat to explore the city and also just 5min walk to khao san road. Wifi worked perfectly fine, plus they have a PC in the common area free to use. Reception was open 24/7. All in all probably the best hostel in bangkok.
