Lovely hotel, great staff and facilities. Lovely hidden pool, feels so calm even though so close the the chaos of the busy street a one minute walk away. A little bit far from the centre of bangkok but taxis and grab make it accessible easily.

Beautifully maintained gardens and swimming pool area. An oasis of tranquility with birdsong, incredible for the centre of Bangkok. Comfortable bed, good wifi for video work calls and a very good shower. Location is ideal for all the roadside food stands and night markets around 10-15 mins walk. Breakfast buffet is a little limited: white bread (a toaster is provided), fruit jam (conserve), choice of cereals (chocolate flakes, muesli, cornflakes), yoghurt and sachets of coffee, tea, hot chocolate. A bit noisy in the road outside, with the occasional late-night and early morning scooters but nothing serious. We loved the environment and pool area and will definitely return here when in Bangkok.

It is tranquil, an nice surroundings. Off the beaten path, but actually close to local food stalls and markets which we liked. We were a little bothered by the poor restaurant facilities and our room had a door to the one next door which made it very noisy as you can hear any whisper from them.

Over-all it was nice inside the gated hotel.. When we got to Charlie's the cab got lost and my GPS was a bit more accurate then theirs.. However the cab driver called the hotel and they ended up sending a golf cart to our location which was about 200\300 yards away.. And the staff was really nice

Close to plazas, lots of food stalls. Nice and quiet. Room very nice. We really liked having a nice size balcony and a pool. Staff very friendly. It is like an oasis in Bangkok. Internet had to sign in all the time and sometimes didn’t work inside our room. Note: staff did offer to move us to another room, but we declined. Also, twice our room wasn’t slotted to be cleaned until 6 in the evening. Perhaps more staff? This is my favourite place in Bangkok and I would definitely come back.

This place is a bit of an oasis amongst the noise. Clean tidy. Nice genuine staff. I've stayed here twice now and would reccomend it. The only downside is that it is close to but not in the middle of a very touristy neighborhood - but this is why it appeals to me!

A Hidden Gem
A beautiful little hotel hidden away on a long back alleyway. When you walk down the the alley you might think you are going the wrong way and is not too safe, but there are many food stalls and other places along the way. Once you get to the gate and open it up, you realized you have traveled to a place well worth the walk. This hotel sits on the nicest grounds l’ve seem. Beautiful little fountains, artwork and an inviting pool. The staff are more than helpful and very kind. You can have breakfast sent to your room, or head out to a Main Street of Bangkok. I would make Charlie House a regular visit to Bangkok, just don’t ask for a rollaway bed, it’s almost as expensive as the room.

Terrible location
This place would be a solid 3 stars if it weren't for its location. It is not accessible by skytrain and due to heavy traffic, is often a very long taxi ride from anywhere a tourist might want to go. Our taxi ride from BKK to the hotel took 2 hours! The staff often tried to dissuade us from visiting popular markets and tourist attractions due to the fact that they were far from accessible from the hotel and taxi drivers often declined to bring us back to the hotel (unless we paid them more money, off the metre) because there is just no business for them in that area. My second reason for not recommending this hotel is that it's simply not worth the price. Based on location alone, but also because anything we purchase there (meals, taxi rides to the airport) was 3 to 5 times more expensive than it is anywhere else. This hotel is only accessible via the alley, though they do send a golf cart to drive you back to the hotel when you first arrive/leave. The grounds are quite beautiful and well maintained. Our hotel room was nothing particularly special though the bathroom was far cleaner than most bathrooms I experienced in Thailand. I tend to stay at places that are out of the way, but the location of this hotel coupled with Bangkok traffic made this a big disappointment. You can find something just as nice and far less expensive in a more accessible area.

Inconvient location, but a really lovely hotel
This is a lovely little hotel, a peaceful oasis in the city. The food in the restaurant was very good, and the staff were very friendly and helpful always. We had a family suite and the room was spacious and comfortable. We were thrilled with the hotel from top to bottom, except that we had a lot of trouble with the wifi. The neighborhood was farther from the city than I expected. The neighborhood is not tourist friendly, and it also lacks the charm of many "authentic" travel experiences. However, there are malls and street food nearby, and a big Tesco Lotus, so you can absolutely find food, taxis, and everything you need here. It's not a bad neighborhood, but it's not really a pleasant place to walk around either. There is a cat cafe next to the cinema, and there are lots of restaurants in the basement of the Central Plaza Mall across the street. I was spending time with my family here, and the hotel was perfect for that. We just had to take a taxi when we wanted to explore Bangkok.

Beautiful Peaceful Tranquil in centre of Bangkok
You walk down the dirty average alley in Bangkok and walk through gates into this haven ........ the staff are very friendly and helpful The rooms are fantastic. We spent six days there and did not want to leave. We would recommend it to anyone and will come again if we in Bangkok. Mother with three 12 year olds.

Gute Verkehrsanbindung. Schöner Garten. Laute Bauarbeiten auf dem Nebengrundstück. In Zukunft wird auf dem Nebengrundstück wohl ein Gebäude stehen und der jetzige Blick auf eine Wiese nicht mehr existieren. Kleiner Pool. Am Vortag meiner Abreise sagte einer der Mitarbeiter mir zu bei der Suche nach einem Taxi behilflich zu sein. Was er leider nicht tat und ich so kein Taxi fand und meinen Flug verpasste.
