- camper11-11Europe139 contributionsWorth a lookInteresting little museum with a number of old style Thai houses and decorated in similar style. Possibly a bit more commercial than Jim planned. Hope they still support local charities as he originally planned. Worth a visit. (Not really wheelchair friendly.Dear camper11-11, Thank you for visiting our museum and sharing your feedback with us. We're delighted to hear that you found our museum interesting. Your appreciation means a lot to us. We would like to address your concern regarding wheelchair accessibility. As Jim Thompson House museum is an old teak Thai house, it poses limitations in terms of accommodating wheelchairs due to its architectural structure. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. However, we do have an elevator available in the areas such as the restaurant, our retail shop and Jim Thompson Art Center which are wheelchair accessible. We strive to ensure that all our visitors can enjoy their time at our location. Regarding your mention of Mr.Jim Thompson's original plans to support local charities, we are proud to continue his legacy. We actively collaborate with and support various local organizations and initiatives that align with his vision. Giving back to the community is an integral part of our mission. Once again, we appreciate your visit and your feedback. We hope that you had an overall positive experience at Jim Thompson House museum. We look forward to welcoming you back in the future.

- leshy-travelBydgoszcz, Poland276 contributionsJim Thompson House - a tourist attraction in the center of BangkokJim Thompson's house in Bangkok is a tourist attraction located in the very center of the capital of Thailand. This place attracts both with its unique appearance and the story of its owner, who disappeared under mysterious circumstances. Attention is drawn to the unusual architecture of the property and the historic exhibits are delightful. Paintings, ceramics and everyday objects are also an opportunity to learn about Jim Thompson's interests and the history and culture of Thailand. That's why it's a great idea to include the museum in your plans to visit Bangkok. Amazing and beautiful place.Dear leshy-travel, Thank you very much for your feedback and the 5 stars you gave us.

- dontravgavMission, Canada66 contributionsAmazing artworkWe had an excellent tour with a guide who spoke very good English. She gave us a run-down of Jim Thompson's life, then led the group through the house (actually five attached buildings). She was very knowledgeable about the architecture, Thompson's lifestyle, and the massive art collection which filled the house and was collected from all over south-east Asia. We next went outside to the gardens, a true oasis in the middle of the city. There was a room which detailed Thompson's life and his influence on the Thai silk industry, and we ended the tour at a large shop selling the silk goods still produced by the factory.Dear dontravgav, Thank you very much for visiting the Jim Thompson House and taking the time to give us a review of your visit.

- TGS1969Tampa, Florida66 contributionsIt’s not a temple!Our family of four (17 YO girl and 14 YO boy) visited the Jim Thompson house and museum. The house and the history behind it are worth the visit on their own, but after two full days of visiting temples it was a very welcome change of scenery for the kids. The tour only takes about 45 minutes (there is no A/C but there are a few fans) and it ends in a gloriously air conditioned gift shop. The house is walking distance from several multi-level shopping malls, so you can take the tour when the house opens in the morning and go to the mall for lunch afterwards. They require you to go on a guided tour - the English version was given every 20 or 30 minutes when we were there. Highly recommended!Dear TGS1969, Thank you very much for visiting the Jim Thompson House and taking the time to give us a review of your visit. Besides the Jim Thompson House you’ll also be able to find our restaurants, Iconic Store, Jim Thompson Art center all located within the Jim Thompson Heritage Quarter which might be of interest to you.

This is a great place, Firstly you have his house made from a collection of ancient Thai houses and full of high quality Thai artifacts. It has a great tropical garden.
Then you have the silk shop showing the value of him saving the Thai silk industry, beautiful clothes and textiles.
The cafe and restaurant are very good and often near the fishpond or established tropical gardens.
Next door is the art gallery showing mainly Thai art

This place was amazing, so interesting, it was so much better than I expected although I had read that it was worth a visit. We took the water taxi from our hotel and it was a 5 min walk from the taxi stop which is signposted with an arrow pointing towards Jim Thompson house. When you arrive it’s like a peaceful calming place in the heart of Bangkok. The buildings are amazing and the guide who takes you round telling you the history of the buildings and artefacts is really knowledgeable. It’s a very sad story of how Mr Thompson goes missing and has never been found, but amazing how he revived the silk trade in Thailand. Definitely worth a visit, the best thing we did in Bangkok, the Palace is very interesting but this place is much more “real”

This was my favorite thing that I did in Thailand!
I really did not think this was going to be my thing! The hotel we stayed in was really close and we had a couple of hours to kill so I took my wife.
I enjoyed every second!!!
The guide was fantastic, her English was perfect, making jokes and conveying information brilliantly.
The house was beautiful and it's history is fantastic.
It was such a calm and serene experience, my wife and I were there for hours and it seemed like only minutes.
So forget going to Muay Thai fights, street food, or what ever you are into.
Come and be surprised, relax in the gardens, admire the house.

I visit Thailand and Bangkok pretty much annually. Really sad to see that the lunchtime menu has deteriorated a lot. Used to be able to order things like fried rice and Spring Rolls, not anymore, it all been replaced by obscure "fancy dining". Whatever it was I chose was vastly over priced and tasteless!

This is a great place to visit and pick up how Thai silk was promoted worldwide through one man’s foresight as well as seeing how he lived in Thailand and his collection of antiques.
The visit is 200 baht (£4.20) per person and is great value. An excellent guided tour is given (different times throughout the day for each of 5 languages) which last about 45 minutes and then one is free to wander around - good coffee shop, restaurant and gift shop on site.
Very helpful staff helped us get taxi back to hotel.

A fascinating visit, not only because it is one of the few remaining wooden Thai houses in Bangkok, but because of the silk. The house is straight out of a Somerset Maughan storty - truly atmospheric.

The Jim Thompson house was the very last thing we squeezed in after three weeks in Asia, and I'm so glad we fit it in. The grounds and home aren't large, you don't need a ton of time. The house tour is guided (about 45 minutes), and it covers part of the gardens too. 200 Baht for the tour, and you don't need reservations. Last stop is the gift shop! Thompson made his name and fortune with silk, so no surprise that there is lots of beautiful Jim Thompson silk for sale. I got a scarf that I absolutely love.
There is also a cafe on site, so you can get a little something to eat or something to drink before or after your tour. Neat place, we had fun.

You can only visit the houses as part of a tour group. When we arrived (11.30am on a Sunday) we had to wait 1 hour for the next tour, but we sat in the nice garden and drank coffee from the cafe while we waited. The houses are very well preserved. The tour went at a good pace (even for our 10 year old). A nice way to spend a couple of hours.

Har glömt vad stationerna hette men vi gick av där vid det stora köpcentrumet med tre bokstäver. Sen var det en rätt liten promenad dit. Minns att man svängde ner i gatan där typ ett kulturhus fanns (gratis inträde och det fanns konst att titta på, man kunde fika mm)

Yes they have a resturant and the food was some of the best we had on our trip. I really enjoyed the beautiful atmosphere too. Also iced coffee was the best I've ever had... I will always remeber it lol. Service is a touch slow and menu is touch expensive but I think worth it for sure.

Older elementary students might enjoy it. Jim Thompson's story is a fascinating one and his disappearance remains a mystery which would no doubt intrigue the students. The house is beautiful and the tour only half an hour. The exhibits outside might be of more interest.
