• An oasis in Bangkok. Antiques and history,the house is beautiful the cafe has great food and drinks and the shop full of gems.
• Sometimes hard to understand the english by tour guide

“I go here every trip and I go often to Bangkok. It is peace and quiet amongst the chaos of Bangkok. Jim Thompson's history is fascinating and the thought of an American in Thailand working in the Thai Silk industry and living in this beautiful house full of history and antiques and on one of the canals (klungs) is a drawcard for me. The cafe has great food and drinks and the shop is full of wonderful gifts of the highest quality. It is a really lovely place to visit when you are feeling tired of the noise and crowds of this city. They have a guided tour though the english pronunciaton is variable. But there is doesn't seem to matter.”
