Khao San road is in the old Bangkok, so there is no subway system or skytrain as parks Siam, Sukhumvit, ... transportation is mainly used as a bus.

From Pattaya to Bangkok, stop at stations Mochit (from Don Mueang airport should also take the bus coming here to get to the heart of Bangkok). This bus station is very close to Chatuchak weekend market, if you want through fair play, you can walk more than 1km reach something, you can take a taxi every 60 baht (~ 40k) (remember to take a taxi home, in which some doctor fraud claim 100 baht motorbike taxi). Around Chatuchak Market has many bus stops, you can ask people whether there is nowhere to catch car station number 512 of Khao San Bangkok offline! Fares are 15 baht (~ 10k), you just tell the person in the car is to Khao San road, when to them will remind you. Taking the bus in Bangkok very interesting, if not try to go here, but this means it is regrettable that result. Heard also has car number 3 on Khao San but also his not go try.
Bus in Thailand that look quite old but extremely clean!

If you go shopping, is just opposite the Siam Center shopping mall take the bus number 15 is on Khao San is offline, all with bath 7 rolling, too cheap compared to all other vehicles
Note: Signs identify upcoming city bus stop near the Democracy Monument, Khao San is it this, just see this monument is that you can map out the door waiting to bag then. From this bus station walk into the road about 200-300 meters to the Khao San. Want to catch the bus from Khao San is also hitching a bus here.
Option 2 is to sail on the Chao Phraya River

NOTE River near Khao San station is Station No. 13, located on Phra Arthit, walk a few hundred meters to (dock located at the gateway to remember when going to the bit). Until then met vessel orange flag is up, pay is always on board, the fare is 15 baht, want to stop at the station will do. If at the shopping center in Bangkok, you should stop and go Sathon BTS station.
We're just stopping at station No. 5 Rajchawongse then to explore nearby Chinatown, from here can go to Hua Lamphong MRT and BTS to shopping malls.
Option 3 is to take a taxi to Khao San Bangkok
This is not directed anything before, just take care not afford it. Deadline after bone tired so much gone shopping area of ​​Bangkok, also by quite late again so we have arrested a taxi from Khao San Don Mueang airport, remember to pay the price in advance and not to press the clock type offline. Pretty far distance, according to doctors, the Google Map close range 30 km, we both have to pay 350 baht (~ 240k), also acceptable ^ ^
Khao San around town there are many tuk tuk but tight guillotine they are evil, we have also tried once said, because at that time did not know where the hotel so we went tuk tuk, turned out to short distances tẹo Sure 500m which takes 60 baht fraud.
Hostels KHAO SAN
Go Thailand you should book through Agoda, as hotels in Thailand have pretty good prices on agoda Moreover, it is convenient, easy to book. Some hotels in Khao san reasonable price bangkok you can view here
Due to Thailand for the first time so we booked through Agoda a midrange hotel Bhiman Inn Hotel name, street number 55 Phrasumen, walk 300m is to Khao San. The hotel offers an Indian style, with pool and free wifi in all the rooms (which is very convenient for the majority of decent hotels in the Thai only free wifi in the reception area), the price of the room for 2 persons 600k. Serving in this friendly, quiet neighborhood, right next to the park is quite large inside the Chao Phraya riverbank, I feel satisfied with this choice.
In addition, you may refer to some other hotels that I looked quite stable:
D & D Inn Hotel, located right on the street Khao San, has swimming pools, apparently including breakfast rates, room rates also about 600k, but here a little noisy.
More affordable then Sawadee House, Chart Guesshouse ... 300k price range for a double room.
With me, you should book your hotels around these cities as Phrasumen or Khao San for ease of travel. You can refer to the Khao San road near the lodge here
KHAO SAN FOOD Bangkok
This is very interesting here, in this culinary diversity and quality street properly, you may encounter the famous Thai specialties with relatively affordable price. Even on the street Khao San or walk up a few dozen meters there is another parallel streets named Rambuttri sell full range of delicacies.

Pad Thai dish was delicious, with variety from 25-50 baht, originally called Pad Thai shrimp alone is 40 baht, after they called Pad Thai whole not to add anything 25 bath, eat blur. The main ingredients of this dish is a very special kind of noodle soup (same style crab cakes) and fried with onions, garlic, pepper, price, peppers ... while eating the same for adding spices such as dried shrimp spicy as you like, touch sesame, chili. Walk along Khao San always felt mingled aroma concentration of Thai noodles.
Drinks on the street Khao San just full of beer is beer, mainly Chang, Tiger, Leo. The lowest is 70 baht, little brother you are drinking from the cup West loudly.

Barbecue here is quite diverse with only 10-20 baht / 1 skewer. From fruit kebabs, chicken grilled mushrooms, grilled sausage, grilled corn ...
Accidentally caught a Vietnamese friend to take it sells coconut cream. Buy support you left 50 standard 1 bath.
Many different fruits are sold, watermelon, mango, durian ... Inexplicably Thai durian party rather expensive, I thought that to be spoiled favorite dish, but expensive too. Also try to eat watermelon gold said, 20 baht a piece of food found not tasty.
Thai Tea all kinds, coconut milk bath 10, for more flavor taste what he took it, and 10 baht one taste always, much to not know what you're nothing.
Midnight dim the salt baked fish brought to the hotel to eat, every 100 baht. There are many items that can not be no more than enjoying all as quiches, mango sticky rice, ...
Body found in Khao San is full of typical cuisine from Thailand, all of which are delicious dishes complement sidewalk cheap, you can go along the 2 street Khao San and Rambuttri to indulge in any discrepancies.
Walking in downtown KHAO SAN
Khao San is a western town so the evening here extremely noisy, the West just called quẩy you my best, a multi-cultural space full of fun. At this point we also acquainted himself more with his two lovely Italian friend.
Along the way are the bars and restaurants extremely active (other than beer Ta Hien Street, the wind slashing her: D) .Nhin everyone cheered dance is difficult to curb by J. You can also participate in street bands play guitar very nature or at the bar with rock singer or DJ vibrant, even have a lot of DJs playing at the sidewalk. Really I feel more vibrant Khao San Walking Street in Pattaya, especially from 11pm onwards.
If you do not like the noise you can also up the rooftop bar quite interesting acoustic music. It is true that walking streets so foot massage services are everywhere, full of sugar and massage shop for around 120 baht for 30 minutes ^ ^ happy
Shopping here is also very interesting, so different from the next major commercial centers, spoiled pay the price, because noisy so owners and guests to circulate on the computer for the price, it's fun: D . You can select the item is hand made clothes or personality for only around 100-200 baht only. I also selected a few items made in Thailand very nature as clothing, flip-flops, bracelets.
You should go to Khao San on the occasion of the Songkran water festival Thai people from 13 - 15/04 will feel all the excitement of this place. Or maybe coming into the big tourist season as June, July or the end of the year.
CAUTION WHEN TRAVELLING KHAO SAN
Whether West street but you also have to follow the rules of the Thais did not dress immodestly, do not point the finger at others to avoid nuisance.
If any problems about security may soon head to the city police station to Khao San, they too often go check, you also avoid extreme actions if not in trouble.
Beware of characters claiming to be teacher surprise invite you to tour their something, this one I saw many Thai people go about and share, and I also met, unfortunately refused if not a few hundred baht like playing.
  If to look at Khao San Bangkok remember to get those great cultural experience all of you!
