At just over 220-years-old Bangkok is a relatively “new” capital and few buildings or organisations, in this capital, are even 50 or 60-years-old. One of a handful to boast a proud century-plus of serving Bangkok is the BNH Hospital, or as it is sometimes still known by its original name of the Bangkok Nursing Home.

The BNH Hospital has occupied its present site on Convent Road since the early 1920s but its history goes back further than that.

The Oldest Hospital in Thailand

Established in 1898 by the then British ambassador George Grenville, on Phra Yo Decha Road, the hospital’s initial purpose was to provide care for the expatriate community. However, it soon outgrew this site and in 1901 land was bought on nearby Convent Road allowing the hospital to expand further. Expansion was again necessary in the early 1920s when a new hospital was built on the Convent Road site.
