If ou’re coming to Bangkok on a hostel budget, I really cannot recommend The Urban Age enough. Yes, it’s Lonely Planet listed, so you’ll have to reserve a week or two in advance if you want a private en suite room, or even a dorm at some times - but the Silom location features a neat mix of farangs and...

The urban age is located in the centre of Bangkok just off Silom Road. The location is excellent for everything as there are transport links close and markets and plenty of places to eat. By far the best thing about this hostel is the great service the staff provide. All 3 staff members we met were really friendly and helpful... More

I was caught with food poisoning and the owner suggested I went to Bangkok Christian Hospital get a jab. When I came back, she was really concerned about me. I have never felt so loved during a backpacking trip. LOL. The place is at Saladaeng Soi 6. There most obvious landmark is the "Yellow Bank". Just right outside the infamous... More

The Urban Age was a great place to stay! The staff were ridiculously friendly and the other people staying there were lovely as well. The internet facilities were great, wireless or there was a computer there. Surrounding the hostel were many massage and beauty shops, and they were such a treat to go to. I'm a hopeless traveler, and it... More

Good value large rooms - nice decor and spacious. The hostel is tucked away in a small soi so you are near the busy Silom Road but far enough away to avoid too much noise. The place is safe and friendly - the staff at desk are very helpful and knowledgeable. Free tea and coffee and wi fi. Shared bathrooms... More
