Bangkok Hotels

[Blr City]

Planning to stay in Ambassador hotel for 2 nights.

Main reason for picking this hotel is the climax club.

I am landing around 2 AM. Are girls still around at 3-4 AM in the morning.

Da Bed is in same Soi as Di Place. Di Place is a higher standard Hotel overall but this does not really apply to the very small short time rooms. I have not tried Da Bed.

It is well known that Nana Plaza has really shitty short time rooms inside. I do not use any more.

In Soi 7/1 there is Atlas with rooms of varying standard from good to excellent (refurbished). At cowboy there is Penny Black and Asoke Place. I prefer Asoke Place (cheaper), if you don't mind seeing most of the Asian customers with ladyboys on their arm. There may well be more ladyboys going in there than real women.

In Soi 33 there is Peep Inn. And in Sukumvit Soi 1/1 (officially) is PB Hotel (back Soi off Soi 3).

Some Hotels could be got quite cheap for whole night, e. G. Royal Express Soi 8 for 540 Baht, seen recently. Di Place, Atlas, and Ruamchit all have rooms for the whole night around the 1000 Baht mark I believe, however Atlas ST rooms are better than Di Place ST rooms.

Miami has rooms of varying prices depending what is available but not really recommended. Too old and run down.

Ruamchit Plaza may have ST rooms for 600 Baht (at times when available), however I would prefer to pay 350 at Atlas, not very far to walk from Thermae.

Near Pat Pong, I recommend The Strand for use ST Only. It's too noisy there to stay the night. There are some very cheap LT options in Sathorn district.

Most ST Hotels will have a special price if you want to stay a bit longer than the normal ST. Some ST Hotels are only giving you 60 mins. Another price for 2 hours, but have to weigh that against whole night prices nearby. I have requested 90 mins at Di Place but can't recall the price increase.

I have been taking a girl regularly for long bookings or sometimes overnight so have been using a very cheap normal Hotel for mongering convenience.

I slightly prefer ST rooms that have a window. At Atlas, can look out to the Sordid Soi Eden. LOL Other requirements are basic. Clean comfortable bed, aircon works and controllable, no stench, shower works.

Wow just wow. How do we flag things up as reports of distinction in this thread?

I am looking at staying at the Vie by Sofitel. Anyone know if they are guest friendly? I have emailed them but am yet to get a reply.

For my own experience it's GF, but the location might not be the best, depending on your mongering plans.

However, staying at Ruamchit may sway a girl's willingness to go with you and price (less time). They are always happy when I tell them I am staying upstairs or at a nice hotel nearby.

Eric, I'm no expert on this topic but do remember a suitable place deeper into Soi 4 from Nana. It is in the alleyway that is next to the American bar, The Tavern. The hotel is called the Bed. Not luxurious but not a dump.

Thanks Mate. I think this alleyway may just be the same one that girl dragged me into a while ago. Good to know at least one hotel there does short-time. I may have to go there myself and just ask.

Warning Hotel prices on the rise. Last week Marvin in Sathorn was 950 Baht per night mid week. This week 1400. I expect the cheaper good deal Hotels are filling rapidly in Sukhumvit as well. I only needed Hotel as a mongering stay. LOL So 1400 is too high for just some where to fuck a girl.

Do you think that might just be seasonal rates going into effect? Or just the higher occupancy of the high season affecting the price?

I had a bit of a negotiation with a weird girl at the PB hotel recently, so I'd like to lay low for a while and find alternatives. I don't want to be remembered as "the guy who was difficult last time", because that can only come back to bite me in the ass. Although I like the place in principle: centrally located, acceptable quality standards, and short-time prices. Mirrors! Fuck-chairs!

Ruamchitt I have used with satisfaction, but it's more like a full-day / night rate, so makes you wonder what else you could have done with the extra 1000 Baht.

I know a short-time motel on Soi Ruamrudee but it's a bit dilapidated. I like higher standards.

I may have been once at a place near Nana Plaza on or near Soi 4. It could have been the CheQinn but I was too drunk to remember. I just remember I paid short-time price and it was rather luxurious.

I remember also some freelancer from the live music bar near the Asoke end of Soi Cowboy took me once to some pretty decent short-time hotel near Soi 15 (I think), but I could not find it again.

Any suggestions for the best short-time hotels in the area? Money is no object, as long as it's in the short-time zone, which I would call 350-500, but quality and location are priorities.

Anyone have any experience / feedback?

Booking.com and Agoda are sister sites, so I would think Agoda is also owned by Priceline. Note that Agoda doesn't include taxes and fees, whereas Booking.com does. The end price is pretty much the same.

Yes the web site I quoted gives the information for a few booking names.

While booking a room in a hotel, I saw the price at US $40 per night. But when I tried to book the room for 6 nights, the total price indicated was US $300. I, then, checked the price for each of the 6 nights separately, the price for each night was still at US $ 40. What I did was to book the same room 6 times for 6 different nights at US $ 40 per night for a total of US $ 240.00. When I checked in at the hotel, I requested to be in the same room for the 6 nights although I had 6 different bookings. They agreed.

I've done this many times as well. Many times it is cheaper to book multiple 1-3 day bookings for a long stay than to book a single booking over a week or 3.

Yes and who owns Agoda and Wotif, etc.?

I much prefer to see the Hotel charge broken down to price on each individual day to better tailor my length of stay to price optimum dates.

Agoda is owned by Priceline.

It's easy to check the ownership of most sites either by going to the "About Us) page or reading the fine print at the bottom of most home pages and the company will describe their corporate structure.

Hotels.com (Expedia) gives you the overall price for your stay but then breaks it down into a day-by-day rate, and often the weekends are actually CHEAPER than during the week. I usually stay at so-called "business hotels" so they cater to the Mon to Frid crowd meaning weekends are often cheaper.
