First House Hotel

We were there for five days. On day three I asked for the room to be cleaned, and when we returned everything seemed fine and nothing was missing. The next day I hadn’t requested cleaning, but someone had cleaned the whole room anyway. I figured there’d been a misunderstanding and they thought I wanted daily service. My bags looked okay, but then I noticed some of the things we’d bought were gone, including my set of inhalers.

The room had an unpleasant smell and the toilet wasn’t clean. From our first day, the receptionist and one of the bellboys, the shortest one, were rude and unwelcoming. They also kept my 1,000 THB deposit without giving me any clear reason. This stay really spoiled our time in Bangkok. Worst hotel I’ve stayed at, by far.

A 7-Eleven is right in front, which is handy. The lift is kind of small, and noise carries between rooms. Getting around by public transport as your main option could be inconvenient since the location is a bit far. Not too bad overall.

The receptionist was rude, unfriendly and impolite, and the service was poor. At check-in they asked for a BHT 2,000 deposit. I hesitated, but they promised to return it at checkout. Instead they refused, saying there was one extra guest and charging an additional extra bed fee for a child under 12. The fee didn’t match the price list, and they still insisted on keeping the BHT 2,000. I’ve never been charged for an extra bed for a child at hotels in other countries, only at this First Hotel. The elevator and room were very narrow, even though we’d booked the biggest room. Breakfast was bad, and there was nowhere to stop and unload luggage. We were honked at as soon as we took bags out of the van for a moment and blocked the road. This was my first stay here and I won’t come back. A very bad hotel in Bangkok.
