Posts: 2Novotel Siam Square Girl Friendly?
First time to LOS and will be there over the New Year and looking for a decent place to stay. I was wondering if the Novotel at Siam Square is girl friendly. I've looked through the thread and had not found any information . Any help would be appreciated.

Posts: 24Royal Asia Lodge
Just got back from BKK after some client entertainment session at Hatyai and based on members notes, I tried Royal Asia. For the price booked on internet, could have a better setting hotel like Emerald or Silom Serene but the good thing is its in Sukhumvit and they couldnt be bothered with who I bring in. Its at the far end of the soi but there is free tuk tuk service. The room is dead big that could fit a family, its an apartment with kitchen etc. I stayed at the other block i.e. not the same block as the reception. Action wise, nothing much to say, went there for work but spent time with my usual girl.

Posts: 1549Hotel List
Coolboy,
Nice list, but surely you could have unearthed more than just ten hotels if you trawled through six months of hotel reports.
Was nice to see you quoted my words of wisdom on the Peninsula.
People keep threatening to compile a list of hotels to save others having to RTFF, good to see that someone has finally made the effort.

all in all, not a bad experience, i'll probably use it again when i am strapped for cash.

in Europe you most likely pay not only for the room but also for the occupancy. So two persons in a room are more expensive than just one. But almost everywhere in Asia you solely pay for the room. Many Thais share their rooms with friends- up to 5 or 6 persons per room - without additional fees. So it's only a scam to charge farangs. Shame on them.

Hi all
This is my second Short visit to Bangkok

I will be staying in Pattaya for 3 nights and Bangkok 2 nights only, I didn’t book the hotels yet, I am planning to do so at the earliest.
I will attach the Pattaya report in Pattaya hotels area
Thanks and Regards to all

What assholes!
Sandog, one final thing you could try is ask them to place this fee on your bill, just in case it is a night-staff scan.
Thanks for warning us.
By the way, my Thai friends who travel around the country a lot for business, and often bring girls to their rooms, have never heard of joiner fees. They told me that you're paying for the room, not who you bring back, just as in any other country. Imagine if a hotel in the US or Europe asked you to pay extra as you brought in a guest!
Joiner fees are a scam to get more money from Farang. I'd advise anyone who can't talk their way out of one to have it placed on their bill and have a polite conversation with the manager the next day.
I once checked out of a hotel in the middle of the night in protest of a joiner-fee. The next day when I returned to complain the manager was extremely apologetic.

Posts: 25Amabassador Hotel
Hi guys,
RED ALERT!!!!! The Amabassador hotel is not a girl friendly place. I book a double room in tower wing and last night I took a honey back, they wanted me to pay 650 baht for join fee. I told them that I have a double room, so why I have to pay?? They said becuase the girl name is not on the hotel registry so I have to pay. The bottom line is this how they treat their loyal customer then I will take my business somewhere else. Just thought that your guys want to know.
Take care,
SanDog
