Why we recommend it
Bangkok Publishing Residence occupies a row of 1960s shophouses on Lan Luang Road that were once the family home of a publisher and the birthplace of the Bangkok Weekly magazine. The building doubles as a small museum, with vintage typewriters, printing memorabilia and old magazine covers displayed throughout.
There are only eight guest rooms, furnished with antiques and timeworn wooden floors, but equipped with modern touches such as Bluetooth speakers and Nespresso machines. It is adults only, with no children under 15. The location, between the old town and Ratchadamnoen Avenue, is handy for the Golden Mount and Khao San Road. Rates are on the higher side for its size, so book directly for the best terms.
