The Josh Hotel is tucked away in a quiet side road close to the hustle and bustle of Soi Ari. Really convenient for the more tourist-driven parts of Bangkok but a nice place to go back to in the evening if you need a bit of peace and quiet.
Staff are friendly (although you'll need to be tuned in to Thai pronunciation of some English words to fully understand what you're being told) and like everywhere in Thailand, you'll be greeted with a warm smile.
The rooms are clean and well-looked after, and the beds very comfortable.
This last week *would have been* my third stay at Josh Hotel but for the coronavirus pandemic first causing the cancellation of the Thai MotoGP event and then the cancellation of my flights home, meaning I could not even travel to BKK. Neverthelessless, I would recommend Josh Hotel for solo or family travellers who need a clean and comfortable place to rest their head for the night, but perhaps not so much if you want to hang by the pool, bar, restaurant and have an "in-hotel", "not-venturing-out-too-often" kind of holiday. For that, you might want something with an extra star or two in its rating.
Oh yes! Also, don't bank on early check-in, even if you have requested and had this confirmed. Seems late-checkouts over-ride early check-ins!
