Cute hotel
Pros:

Inside this hotel is very attractive and quaint as it is set beside a large fish pond. Great price for Bangkok. Pool looked lovely, although we didn’t get a chance to use it as we only stayed one night. Staff were very helpful and friendly.
Can easily walk to shops and restaurants.
Rooms are spacious.
Access to the hotel is up a very narrow road and we had to walk part of the way as the taxis would go no further.

Lovely little place in Bangkok
Pros:

Charlie House is a lovely little spot in Bangkok. Located in a quieter region, this hotel is peaceful with lots of greenery and a pool. The rooms were clean and well equipped, staff lovely. Super affordable too! My partner and I travelled easily from here to various parts of the city. There is also some small food markets and a 7/11 just round the corner also.

Desperately Needs Soundproofing
Pros:

There is zero sound proofing. You will hear every door nearby close and everything said in the room next to you. Unless you’re a super deep sleeper, this place is not for you. There are ants in the rooms. You aren’t allowed to smoke by the pool or even outside your room, only in the one smoking area. The pool is small and freezing with only a couple of lounge chairs. The beds are hard and have only one pillow. There isn’t anywhere comfortable to sit with wooden chairs and the wooden headboard on the bed.

There are markets and a mall and a 7eleven and lots going on nearby. The property is nice and green.

Pros:

Lovely little hotel nestled away in pincalo, quiet and peaceful hotel setting in a busy area. Sadly wasn't easy to get around but first time in Bangkok and lacked local knowledge. The staff were friendly and attentive. The room was basic, comfortable and clean. If you want to stay in pincalo I highly recommend staying at Charlie house.

4th time staying here! Love it
Pros:

I went to Charlie House for the 4th time in my multiple trips to Thailand. This is always my go to place in Bangkok- Why? It is such a beautiful and peaceful oasis in a crazy busy city.
We stayed Nov 10- Nov 13 and Nov 17-19.
It was my boyfriends first trip to Thailand and it did not disapoint.
Here are the things I love about Charlie House
1) local residential neighborhood so you meet the actual people of Bangkok where they live and have more authentic experiences.
2) across the street from Lotus so you can pick up food easily
3)local markets nearby so easy to shop for interesting stuff or get your nails done:)
4) Great pool(in the shade and not heated so refreshing after the hot day)
5) The staff always try to accomdate you and if you ask them something I swear they never say no. I asked would it be possible to leave a bag of items we bought and don't want to take with us to Phuket and would pick up when we come back to town. Yes. We asked can we leave our bags before check in time so we can explore- yes. Can I please use the pool and bathroom even after check out time while I wait for the taxi for the airport transfer- yes. Can I order beans with toast instead of just doing the all you can eat breakfast- yes. honestly- they were always so nice- so friendly and always had time to listen.
6) they keep the grounds very clean and it feels so serene to walk the property
7) there is a little corner store just past the canal and you can get cheap drinks and ice creams
8) This time I actually met Charlie- who owns Cahrile House- I didn't know he existed and it was so cool to meet him( so friendly)
9) The sounds of the city are gone- All you hear is birds I promise- so serene!

What I don't love
1) The beds are so hard- I have accepted this as the norm in Thailand(only 1 hotel of the 3 had soft beds but Charlie House's bed feels like you are sleeping on a well used futon(think rock surface). I saw another woman to come in and complain so I would suggest they perhaps have mattress toppers purchased to help for those of us that cannot handle that level of firmness.
2) this time we were in a 2nd floor room on our 2nd stay at the hotel and I was not a fan of room 207(quite noisy- we can hear everything in the hallway) and it seemed like no sound proofing- i was quiet worried the neighbors would hear me snoring.

Honestly I promise this is not a place you can disregard with the reviews it gets. this will be a great basepoint for those who need a place to start in Thailand. You will walk down a nasty alley everyday but honestly by the end of the trip I almost missed that alley and the streetlife of the people walking buy, selling food, riding their motorcycles quickly past you, and roaming dogs. This is your chance to really share in a unique place while you are in such a beautiful city.

Pros:

We checked in and the room seems ok. When one of us went to use the facility, water was not going down. Shower did not have hot water in one room, we had to use the 2nd room we had. When checking out, 2 in our group was running 15 mins late and we asked if we could check out before 12:30 instead of 12 noon. We were told 'NO'. The front desk lady was pretty mean.

繁華街から離れた落ち着いたホテル
Pros:

夜中3時過ぎのチェックインを快く受けてくれました。事前のメールにもすぐに返事をもらえました。
部屋は広く清潔です。シャワーは湯量も多く、温度もとても高く快適です。
繁華街から遠いので、グラブを使う機会は多いです。朝8:00を過ぎると大渋滞が起きるので、グラブのコストも上がります。
周辺にはコンビニ、ナイトマーケットがありとても便利です。
敷地内には自然がいっぱいで疲れて帰ってきた夜や早起きした朝にとても癒やされます。
スタッフもとてもフレンドリーです。

Pros:

Quiet, cozy, relaxing garden environment.
Rooms are clean and decent sized. Bed is comfortable. Professional and friendly staff. Only draw back is the long walk from the hotel to the Main Street. But the hotel has a buggy service that takes you to the main road and pick you up.

An oasis in the heart of Bangkok
Pros:

Very quiet secluded hotel in the heart of Bangkok. Lovely and attentive staff, clean and well equipped room, nice pool, koi pond, beautiful flowers and grounds and down an alley and right across the highway from a large department store for whatever you may need. The bed was huge and comfortable with clean linens and the AC worked perfectly. Lots of hot water. Can’t say enough about the place. We loved it.

Pros:

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.

A calm, pretty, quiet oasis, use a grab taxi to get there, golf cart picks you up
Pros:

We stayed in the Best Western Chatuchak Park the first night, then thought we would just catch the train to this hotel, do not do that, get a Grab cab, you can not walk from the train to this hotel with bags.

Once you get to this hotel it is quite charming. We were allocated a ground floor room, but I asked to go up on a higher level and they accommodated with no fuss. If you let them know you are coming they have a golf cart to pick you up and take you down the lane to the taxi on the main road, no fuss or bother.

There is a pond with fish and at night you can just here the frogs, I found it quiet and calm. We only found the pool in the morning when we were leaving. The room was large and comfortable and I thought the price was very good. We didn't have breakfast. You must get a grab taxi though as the road is very busy to walk along. We got a taxi to the golden mount.

Beautiful garden setting
Pros:

This is a nice hideaway off the busy road. This area has a great mall and many great local food vendors and markets that aren’t pushy/geared toward tourists.
The hotel has lots of children and young families. We were just passing through and stayed for one night. The room is big and the bed is huge and the most comfortable we have stayed in after 4 weeks of travelling. The shower is a bit leaky and the shower head is placed quite low height. The staff are friendly and the garden is lovely and well kept.

Pros:

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.
