Review summary

Based on recent reviews

The Old Capital Bike Inn is noted for its unique and inviting decor, creating a special atmosphere. Many guests enjoyed the spacious, clean rooms, some featuring oversized tubs and comfortable beds, though a few found the King Loft rooms somewhat small. The hotel's breakfast, including Thai doughnuts with pandan sweet sauce, is widely appreciated; however, the breakfast room's size can be limiting for families. The hotel provides bicycles and is conveniently located for exploring Bangkok; soon, a subway stop will be right out front, improving transportation options.

quirky charm and attentive service

historical context attentive staff great shower

I was taken by the owner jason, he guided us on a bike tour showcasing local sights and sharing historical context. It was engaging. the staff was attentive and polite. my suite garden terrace was amazing. The air-conditioning worked perfectly, and the shower offered great water pressure. breakfast was both delicious and plentiful, setting a solid start for the day.

the doors to the suite garden terrace didn't feel completely secure, which caused some concern . also, there was noise at night.

The staff gave me many recommendations for places to see further afield. My room was pretty. The bed was comfortable.

The doors to the room did not feel secure. The bathroom lacked a door for privacy. The bathtub overflowed into the lower half of the room .
