I-Rovers Sports Bar & Hotel

A guesthouse sitting on top of a long-standing sports bar, a few steps off LK Metro and in the thick of the Soi Buakhao budget-nightlife stretch. Football downstairs, bed upstairs, bars in every direction.

Rooms are simple and clean, the usual budget kit. You’re not here for the fittings, you’re here because your room sits above a bar showing the match and the gogos are around the corner.

Guest policy

Directories call it guest friendly with no joiner fee, though that’s their word and not something we’ve confirmed, so ask directly before you commit. Whatever they tell you, your guest registers ID at the desk, which is Thai law rather than house rules.

The verdict

8.3 across 820 reviews, and a loyal following of people who come back for the bar as much as the bed. On a big match night the room can hear it, but that’s rather the point of staying here.
