Are these girl-friendly hotels?

Aetas Hotels & Residence. (49 Phloenchit Road, Soi. Ruamrudee Lumpini Pathumwan, Wireless / Ploenchit, Bangkok)

Vie Hotel. (117-39 Phaya Thai Road, Ratchathewi, Pratunam / Siam, Bangkok)

Why don't you just call / email the hotel and ask. They will tell you upfront. And if they are GF then stay there and give us all a feedback. Many thanks.

Been staying there a couple of times but I don't think I will again. To noisy rooms. All thoose sound comming from outside the doors, and through the walls. And last week the THAIMAN behind the desc, cheated me with the laundrybill (express when it was regular) and when I complained about this he just told me that we can take that some other time, I was checking out.

If money is not an issue you can't go wrong with either Majestic Grande (5*) or Dynasty Inn Grande (4*) , both GF and in the middle of the action.

Have to agree

The Dynasty Grade is the one I stay in for a few days when I arrive and before I fly home.

Its is gf and a couple of mins walk from Nana. 7-11 / family market nearby.

Excellent rooms decent cable wired internet, pool, reasonable food (only tried breakfasts)

Staff very friendly with me always remember my name etc.

Very well treated.

Not that expensive

Try latestays. Com and it coes in at 1800 baht a night.

The Majestic Grande is a more upper class establishment.

Friend of mine stays there as he has more money than sense.

But I know the people who own it the family that own the Majestic Tailors run both it and the Majestic Suites and they are honest hard working people who know how to run things and make very good suits for fat ba$tards like me.

Again late stays quote for this.

For a less expensive stay try ever rich inn just on sukhumvit between 3 and 5 where the freelancers all stand at the bus stop clean cheap definitely GF and has really big showers enough for me and at least 2 others with pleanty of space beds are ok King suite gets a window Queen gets a mirror behind a curtain but at under 1 K for this location its good value indian people who run it are very nice too

Dear IGS'ler,

I have the luck to be in BKK beginning of March. I have stayed in BKK for abote 10 times till now. And always I am struggeling to finde a cool hotel.

I stayed in the dream, hyhat, livingston, the swiss, and others. So I like more 4, 5 or 5 star with a nice spa and pool.

It must be GF and better in a good location.

I have read the forum and serched everywhere but I would love is someone can give me a recomendation what hotel to try this time. Importand is a nice bath, because I love to play there.

Any idear? It is not a question of the price.

Thanks a LOT!

There are many reports on ISG about Livingstones Lodge (LL). Here is mine.

For my first days in BKK I had booked Sheraton Grande. The one reason I did not initially book LL, was the seemingly lack of comfortable seating in the rooms. I have a back that needs resting now and then, and I need something comfortable that suits my particular back problem.

However, when visiting LL with the purpose of meeting one of their lovely hostesses, I got the chance to talk to the hotel manager, Guido, who simply asked me what I needed. I had at that point found a good little sofa, placed outside the Sports Bar, which was good for my needs. Guido then immediately confirmed that he would make sure the sofa would be in my room, should I decide to book my upcoming 6 days in BKK at LL. Said and done.

When I got there, and were taken to the room, junior suite I had chosen, the sofa was there.

That is only one out of dozens of superb responses and actions taken by him and his staff.

Throughout my entire 6 days stay, I can only conclude that LL provides service and attitudes that no Sheraton in the world get even close to. When entering the hotel part of the establishment, there is a sign saying "welcome to our home". I guess it depends a bit on how you, as a guest behaves, but if you, like me, appreciate that kind of closeness and intimate feeling that they offer, well then this hotel is better than most.

What you get in terms of tangibles are:

A good sized room.

A clean room, with a bed that is the most comfortable I can imagine.

I bathroom with funny but nice decor, not that big, but OK in size.

A nice jacuzzi in some rooms.

A clean and warm swimming pool.

A restaurant that gives you your breakfast ANY time you want it.

A breakfast that in no way gives justice the the quality of the restaurant, but is OK.

Thai, or western / German food at night of absolute highest standards. Surprisingly good food. Even good wines.

A Sports Bar, that caters extremely well to the interests of the ISG memebers = girls. Wonderful girls.

Staff in all corners that are always present and available, but never ever in your face when You don't want them to.

In addition, as mentioned above, a personal service of highest quality. The more You ask for, the more they show what they can and are willing to do for You.

Finally I want to mention the superb attitudes of the mamasan Jen and the above most things ruling Som. And, the manager Guido and owner Hermann, who also is constantly present and offering good advice, as well as company.

There is no place like home, or LL.

Hi I go to BKK, but had a few issues with current place I'm staying. I'm hoping to get last minute leads on somewhere I can stay near Siam Sq for ideally under 8k a week or 20k-25k a month starting today / tomorrow. I am only here for short term (1 month max) so hope to find something. This would really help me out right now so appreciate anyone reading this in the area who might have some suggestions!

[Bugzy 69]

I'm going to try it for my first time next month, hopefully! I say hopefully because their website / contact is slow as a tortoise! But reviews on tripadvisor are so positive. Got a rate of 1700 thb but as I said nothing's confirmed, been waiting for a reply for 5 days already.

Anyone stayed at this place? Inputs will be greatly appreciated.

I didn't really have a lot of time to explore the hotel. Truth be told all I saw was the lobby, lift and my spacious deluxe suit. The suit was very nice with a nice big bathroom. It looked like it had recently been refurbished. The location was great and I slept very well. Good value for money. Only negative the Internet and Joiner Fees.

I was just wondering what would the joiner fee be at the landmark? Do they make a big deal about bring back guest?

Thanks for your help.

Stay safe and play safe.
