Very easy to get to most places from here
The best part of this hotel was its prime location by the subway, and that it's only a 15-20 minute walk to Suhkumvit if you'd like to walk. That alone made it absolutely worth it. The amenities were a little scarce - they didn't even provide a washcloth! - but overall, definitely bang for your buck. The little dimsum restaurant it is attached to was lovely.

Good inexpensive choice for young travellers
I chose this hotel as it was close to the Makkasan Skytrain stop. Walked from the station to the hotel. Walk was a little rough (narrow sidewalks, lots of pedestrians, construction to highrise close to hotel. Hotel was nice but basic. We were only there for 1 night and were given room 607 which has one window totally covered by something (assumingly because of nearby construction??). Room on street might have been loud but would have had a nice view. Floors are painted concrete. Bathroom had ??sulfur/musty smell. But for $28... I'm not complaining. It was clean. Seemed to be popular with young travellers. Took a taxi back to Skytrain for about 50 Bhat (<$2 US). For an cheap overnight, I think this is fine.

Time-saving tip:
Short walk from hotel
To walk from Skytrain Makkasan staton. Exit station an walk towards main street (traffic from the taxi area only lead out towards main street). At street, make right and walk past subway stop to major street. Turn right and walk <0.5 mile to front door. Entrance is directly on main street. Easy walk.... but not so easy with luggage... Take a taxi.. they're inexpensive... Skytrain costs ~90Bhat for express (15 min no stops) or ~35Bhat for local "city line" which has 5 stops before airport. Express is a nicer train.

My Bangkok Trip 2012
I've been staying for few days in FX Hotel Makkasan Bangkok.I was almost sorry to leave as the stay was really nice and so are the staffs like Ornicha and Atit. Upon arriving I found myself in a valley of smiles from the very first person I met Ornicha. Within few minutes, she managed to check-in for me. Entering the room, it was simple and clean as well as the bathroom. However, there was only one mirror in the room, which was inside the bathroom. Personally, location advantage is my main consideration of hotel selection. In brief, About 3 minute walk to BTS, 7 minute walk to Airport Rail link and 5 minute to 7-11. To sum up, it is well located and worth what I paid.

I have been staying for few days at the FX Makkasan. Overall, The stay was really nice and so are the staff. Upon arriving I found myself in a valley of smiles from the very first person I met Orn. Within 5 minutes, I was managed to get the room card. The room and bathroom was very clean and nice. However, there is only one mirror and only available inside the bathroom. The most important element for me is location advantages. Base on my walking speed, 5 minutes to 7-11, 8 minutes to Airport Link Train stations and 3 minutes to BTS. To sum up, worth the price I pay.

Séjour éclair à Bangkok
Nous avons séjourné 2 nuits dans cet hôtel à Bangkok après les 16h d'avion. Il est situé au bord d'une route donc dans un lieu sans charme (cependant il n'est pas bruyant) mais nous n'étions pas très loin à pied d'endroits animés et des restaurants. Il y a un petit restaurant attenant à l'hôtel où l'on sert le petit déjeuné. L'hôtel est propre et confortable, le personnel discret mais peu souriant... et c'est dommage mais je crois que le sourire thaïlandais est en voie d'extinction... Je recommanderai cet hôtel pour un court séjour (2 nuits maximum).

スタジオのようなホテル。綺麗ではないが汚くもない感じ。

スタジオのようなホテル。綺麗ではないが汚くもない感じ。 喫煙ルームで予約したのに全室禁煙になっていて、いちいち1階に行かないとたばこ吸えないのが不便でした。ナナやソイカからタクシーで50バーツ以内で、カウンターは横切るだけなので恥ずかしさはないです。JFも無料で女の子連れて帰っても、スタッフの人もがんばってみたいな感じで良かったと思います。しつこくチップを要求されることなくフレンドリーな方達でした。値段のわりには快適です。

Bueno: cerca del MRT. Tiene aire
Bueno: cerca del MRT. Tiene aire acondicionado, caja de seguridad y nevera. Camas bastante comodas. Hotel muy nuevo. Cerca del tren que va al aeropuerto, pero cuidado que empieza a funcionar a las 6:00 AM. Negativo: casi no hay luz para afeitarse en el bano, no hay supermercado o seven eleven cerca.

空港からの快速電車の終着駅(マッカサン)から徒歩10分、MR
空港からの快速電車の終着駅(マッカサン)から徒歩10分、MRTペチャブリ駅には徒歩5分で便利ですが、周辺はコンビニ・レストランともに無い。 次への移動のための宿泊に向いている。
