Posts: 41Bangkok for 9 days & also 1 month. Stay at Airbnbs in the Sukhumvit area?
Hey all, been looking through this thread quite a bit for an upcoming trip. I'll be stopping in Bangkok for 8/10 days before venturing further into Asia, then coming back to Bangkok for around a month in November / December.
I guess first question is, should I be staying in the Sukhumvit area if one of my main activities is going to be mongering? I know if I stay anywhere between Nana Plaza and Soi Cowboy that puts me into walking distance to a lot of the red light district and also a lot of convenience (food, shopping, stores, etc.) but there is a downside to staying in this area? Friends have talked a lot about Khaosan Road area, but that seems quite a ways away from the main red lights.
Second question, what's the general feel of the Airbnbs in these condos for mongering? There's so many really affordable airbnbs with nice pools, balconies, dozens to hundreds of amazing reviews, and they're about half the price of the hotels in the area. My main concern would be in an airbnb that is in a condo building that doesn't allow visitors like I've read a few times, but it also seems like that's so few and far between. I also would like to have outcall a few times from fiwfans / thaifriendly / agencies and don't want to have issues with having an apartment / condo vs. A hotel.
Also, are there any other areas that I'm overlooking in Bangkok for staying?
I was looking at staying at 3 different Airbnbs for 3 days each, so that if I find a really nice one I can book it for a monthly stay in November.
Thanks all!

Posts: 6257You're in Thailand everyone knows why you're in Thailand! Staying near Nana or Soi Cowboy all hotel staff know why you're staying in that area. Pretty sure they don't think you're there to visit Terminal 21 or Siam Square. All my friends who visited me in Thailand have told their coworkers and friends that they went to somewhere less conspicuous than Thailand. Still have my group of friends who lug golf clubs halfway around the world cause they say they go to Thailand to golf. Then they take 7 different golf shirts and take photos on the single day they golf to show people they went golfing for 7 days. I just shake my head at them.

Posts: 6How is Aira Hotel (Soi 11)
Wanted a bit of an upscale / week stay for a week while still being closer to the scene of action. Can anyone recommend how is Aira hotel? Are they guest friendly?

I think the breakfast buffet is great--it has Thai, Chinese and Western food.

So here's my tip if you need it. Most condos have cleaning services that you can book for the next day. My condo had about 5 girls come over and make my 60+ sqm condo spotless in less than an hour. Total cost 300 baht. I'm sure a quick clean up of your room may cost you 100 baht. Make sure your AirBNB provides you with extra bedsheets etc.

Posts: 530Solaria Nishitetsu hotel
Stayed here for my last few days in Thailand. Really nice hotel in a great location. Price is a little higher than I like but I used my Amx point for this trip. I think this hotel usually goes for about $110.00 usd. A night. Location is across the street from Terminal 21. From the lobby you can access the skytrain and Terminal 21 without ever getting wet if it rains. Short walk to Soi Cowboy, bars on Soi 11, Thermaes and you can either walk or skytrain to Nana and many massage places. It is girl friendly but they ask that you register your guest at the lobby. You could probably by pass this if you enter on street lever and elevator up to your room floor. Not sure how they would monitor this. I had no problem with registering my guest. The rooms are nice and spacious but must pay extra if you want breakfast. With all the eating places around, I opted out of breakfast. The one con is that even though I would put the clean my room sign on at 10:00, I would get back around 14:00 and the room still wasn't clean. They usually came around 15:30. I guess good for those that like to sleep in. If the price comes down under $100 usd I would most definately come back and stay here.

Posts: 30Keep airbnb or no?
Hi guys. First time to Bangkok soon and I will be there for 25 days. I got an airbnb in a nice apartment building 6-7 minute walk from nana station. In general I would prefer to not bring girls back to my room due to security concerns and cleanliness (since airbnb no daily cleaning). Plus the listing says no outside guests.
So my question is then, when I decide to do some mongering it shouldn't be an issue to find short time hotels right? Massages and such have their own locations so I am good there. I don't really want to have a girl stay overnight or anything so no concerns there. If I do find a particular girl I like I might still invite her to the airbnb, but that would be only with 1 or 2 girls max most likely.

Posts: 16Need specific reccomendation
Hi,
Need inputs if any 5 star hotels have separate pathway to lift for discretion near Thermae? I want to avoid walk of shame as far as possible (personal preference only).

I haven't stayed at the J W Marriott in quite a while, and I was there when the hotel was newer. But if I were going to Bangkok for mongering, that might be my hotel of choice. If you're there on business it may look a little shady, being only a block or two away from Nana. It was a nice hotel. You could March your date past the front desk and register her, or walk her in through the entrance closer to Sukhumvit and go straight to the elevator. The selection among the best looking women is better at Nana anyway compared to the Thermae and Mixx IMO.

Posts: 704 points Soi 15
I have stayed at the Four Points Sukhumvit on Soi 15, a good value for money to me. Few steps from Thermae Cafe and at mid distance between Soy Cowboy and Nana Plaza. No questions asked if you bring a "friend" in the room.
I did not take the room with breakfast options because I prefer to test the local food and do brunches when in holiday.
I would go back there again next time I will travel to Bangkok.
