Montio Shaoke Hostel ^中文版

Introduction

For travelers craving an authentic, affordable base in the heart of Bangkok’s buzzing Sukhumvit neighborhood, Montiantau Hostel (蒙蒂奧紹克旅舍) delivers the perfect blend of convenience, comfort, and local charm. Tucked away down a quiet side street just steps from the city’s main transit arteries, this budget-friendly hostel balances peaceful rest with easy access to Bangkok’s iconic street food, nightlife, and cultural landmarks—ideal for solo backpackers, casual groups, and any traveler looking to stretch their baht without sacrificing location.

Hotel Overview

Montiantau Hostel is located at 16/19 Soi Sukhumvit 19, Klongtoey Nua, Wattana, 10110 Bangkok, putting it within a 10-minute walk of both the BTS Skytrain Asok Station and MRT Sukhumvit Station, making cross-city travel seamless. The hostel caters to modern travelers with thoughtful, no-fuss amenities: free WiFi is available across the entire property, keeping you connected whether you’re planning your day from the common area or unwinding in your room. All accommodations are air-conditioned to beat Bangkok’s year-round heat, and every room is non-smoking, with a strict no-smoking policy across all common areas for the comfort of all guests.

Practical services make short and long stays easy: the hostel offers complimentary luggage storage for early arrivals or late departures, so you can explore the city without hauling your bags. Additional services include wake-up calls for early tour departures, plus laundry and ironing services to refresh your wardrobe mid-trip. The front desk staff speaks fluent English and Thai, so you’ll never struggle to ask for directions or local recommendations. Note that there is no on-site parking, so guests arriving by private car will need to arrange off-site parking nearby.

Local Attractions

Three standout attractions are all within a 15-minute ride from the hostel:

• Terminal 21 Shopping Mall: A 10-minute walk from the hostel, this quirky themed mall takes you on a world tour of global cities in one building, with each floor designed to evoke Paris, Tokyo, Istanbul, and more. It’s famous for affordable fashion, the massive basement food court serving up some of the best cheap street food in the city, and a rooftop cinema with skyline views.
• Benjakitti Park: A 15-minute BTS ride away, this sprawling green oasis is Bangkok’s favorite escape from the concrete jungle. Rent a bike to cycle around the central lake, watch local families picnic, catch sunset views of the King Power Mahanakhon skyscraper, or join a morning group yoga session for free.
• Soi Cowboy: Just a 10-minute walk south of the hostel, this iconic nightlife strip offers everything from casual sports bars to lively live music venues—perfect for travelers looking to experience Bangkok’s famous after-dark scene without venturing far from their base.

Travel Tips

Grab a street-side pad thai or mango sticky rice from the food stalls at the entrance of Soi Sukhumvit 19 for under 50 baht—far cheaper than eating at tourist-focused restaurants closer to the main road. If you’re arriving after 10pm, note that the entrance to the soi can be dark, so use ride-hailing apps like Grab to drop you directly at the hostel door. Finally, book at least two weeks in advance during peak travel season (November to February) as this popular budget hostel fills up quickly thanks to its unbeatable location.
