Ayutthaya Hostels - Reviews and Rates

Ayutthaya is a famous, historical city that was once the old capitol of Siam. I went there yesterday and as you can see, I took a million pictures. Even the pictures don't do the city justice to the marvel I found in it, it's truly fascinating. I went to 3 different wats that are now ruins; that's where most of the pictures are from.
I rode...

We were up early and went for breakfast. The service was slow and Bill did not wait for eggs. He headed back to a 24 hour internet spot on Khoa San where he can upload some more pics until our laundry is ready at 10. I worked on the blog until Bill returned at 10:30. We showered, the drain is working a bit better today and changed. I popped the ...

Ayutthaya is a laid back peacefull ancient city about and hour and a halfs train journey outside Bangkok. When we first left to come here, we spent one night before the elephantstay then four nights afterwards. It cost 30 baht for both of us to get the train here which is around 50p - good value considering the cost of other forms of transport h...

On 17th Jan we took the train with Ya an hour north of Bangkok to Ayutthaya, the old capital city of Thailand and home to a myriad of ancient temples. To explain in a nutshell what we did: Train to Ayutthaya; pushbikes onto boat across the river; cycle round the city visiting temples, eating good food and meeting cool people. Take a look at the ...

rocking up to Ayatthaya after another horrible 'sleeper' bus journey i set my bags down to another chilled out town tho a lot bigger than rather bigger than Chiang Mai but still relatively untouched by Western tourism. having only a couples day i rented bicycles for both of them and saw the that the city had to offer. the city (not dont think hi...

It gets better. It was expected of course. It was good just to get out of Bangkok. Prices drop. People are nicer. The pace is slower. And Ayutthaya is only about an hour and half out. A first-class, air-conditioned bus set me back $2.10. There's a small strip of guesthouses not far from whereever it is the bus drops you. A beautiful double room ...

Even after almost 6 months here, the generosity of Thai people continues to astound me. There is a lovely old man who works at Nakhon Sawan train station who we've spoken to a few times - he now knows us by name and greets us like old friends. On our most recent journey back to Tharua, the train was late and he thought we wouldn't eat for some h...

Situated about 80 kms north of BAngkok, Ayutthaya is the former capital of Thailand and as a result of it's temple ruins, is UNESCO world heritage site. I got the train from Bangkok for 40 Baht (about 60p) and we arrived at a station at around the time the train was due to be in Ayutthaya. I couldn't see a sign with the staion name so I asked th...

From Bangkok we headed north to the town of Ayutthaya - the former capital of Thailand before it was destroyed by the Burmese Army - a little bit of history!! The town is famous for its numerous ruined old Wats (temples) and palaces so we decided to hire some bicycles to get around them. It was 10am by the time we had decided to get bikes - not ...

A few days into school and I am beginning to get a hold of the classes. It is a little different then teaching Television Production at GW. I have taught them some easy games like Simon Says and they get a kick out of it. I came to their school at just the right time. Yesterday was a special day they call Teacher's Day. There was an assembly out...
