Isaan Region (including Udon Thani, KK, Khorat)

[Davey1965]

Arrived to Udon for the first time in four years. Staying at the Pannarai. I'm liking the hotel. I booked for maybe $35 a night. Beds and blankets are comfortable, and it is definitely 100% lady friendly. But maybe all hotels in Udon are. This in only my second time here.

Yesterday afternoon, around 4 pm, I walked outside of the hotel and made a left turn. Immediately came to the ATM bar. Friendly enough staff. But it was too early, so I had a couple beers and went back to hotel to take a nap.

Around 7 pm went to the Brick House and ordered a pizza. After dinner went back to ATM bar and had a beer. Nothing really worthwhile at that time at ATM bar. From there went to Tawan Dang to listen to live music. It was awesome. Really love that place. Thought I was too buzzed after leaving so went back to hotel room. About 15 minutes later inside my hotel room, I thought to myself, "What the hell am I doing? I'm in Thailand. " It was already after 1 am at this point, so I didn't expect to find any action.

I walked outside the hotel and directly across the street from the hotel was a small bar with girls shouting out to me. I think it was the Fairy bar. After a beer I bar fined a very short but attractive (to me) lady. I didn't want to rush. I asked her how much for long time. Its kind of blurry, but I think she might have asked me how much I pay. Not wanting to haggle and get the deal done, I think I offered and she accepted 3,000 Baht. It was a wonderful session. She was awesome..

Thank you for Udon update. I will be there in 4 weeks staying at the Grand Udon hotel almost next to the Pannarai. Glad to hear there is fun to be had. Looking forward to Nutty Park and Day and Night as well. I'll be there for 9 days minimum and hoping to escape for some discreet action. I'm more into the massage parlors and hope to hit all of them during my time there. But will definitely be checking out the bar action late in the evening.

Fast forward to this afternoon. About 1 pm I found myself at the ATM bar which was again quite dead. I looked across the street at the Country Bar, and there were already at least 5 gals working, and all of them younger (appearing in looks like less than 30 years old, but I realize Thai ladies age slowly). I finished my beer and crossed the street and went inside the Country Bar. I immediately began talking to a young looking lady who I really would have guessed to be 25 years old or so (later found out she is 32). Beautiful lady in my eyes. After I bought her a beer I asked her about bar fine and ST and LT. She seemed very happy at the prospect. She said 300ST, 500 LT. I opted for the ST. I asked her how much to her for ST. She said 1,000 baht. That blew my mind. I am not understanding a post I read that said Udon costs more. Hotels, ladies, (and usually food) seem so much cheaper here to me. At the very least, on par with Bangkok.

We get back to the room, we both shower, and she comes out of the shower looking magnificent without clothes. She was very open to everything I wanted. Great DATY, kissing, everything.

I was so satisfied that I asked her if I could change to LT, and take a nap, then we could spend the night together going out to eat and shopping. She asked how much I would pay for LT. This is were a few of the Vets will get mad at me. I knew I could maybe manage for 3 k, definitely for 4 k. But I had the dough and wanted her happy. I said I'd be happy to spend 5 K for long time. I really wanted her to be happy.

Just my opinion: I don't understand mongers who will spend a few thousand dollars on airfare and hotels, then try to haggle down a lady who you want to treat you well. If I can spend 1. 5 or 2 k on an airfare, why haggle over 1,000 or 2,000 baht?

We went out this evening and had a blast. Came back to hotel and just had a whole lot of fun watching tv and drinking. She is awesome and so friendly.

Got to say, my standards seem to be much lower than the guys who say Udon Thani is not a mongering destination, that it is a desert here and not worth visiting. I love the laid back vibe. I don't know what a "9" or a "10" is. To me a 9 or 10 is a fairly attractive lady who is very happy to spend time with me and let me take her out and give her a nice break from her everyday life.

At the Country Bar, I saw at least five younger gals who I thought were highly attractive and friendly. Country Bar plays classic rock and roll videos that this Farang likes a lot.

I can't more highly recommend dropping by Country Bar. I'm sure there are several who might disagree. But it will be my go to stop when I return in a few months.

Heading to Nong Thai in two days. Will put out a post at the completion of my two day stay there.

Thanks to all who helped me in planning with your words of wisdom about UT. Has helped a lot.

Small numbers of bars, higher prices. Not worth going to for mongering.

There is acceptable, to good, to great, mongering to be found everywhere in Isaan.

But would you go there, actually anywhere there for mongering?

The answer to that is a resounding no.

I did travel throughout Isaan driving for around 4 weeks a few years back.

Started in Korat, headed to Ubon, along the river to Nong Khai, then zig zagged my way back down to Korat touching most provinces.

I stayed between 1 and 3 nights each province, main cities only, and was never without massage and night time fun options to be found.

I just popped into this thread and read the first page- sounds like Udon Thani is not really worth the visit at this time?

There is a hotel near the river, name escapes me that has a selection of girls available. (if anyone is still interested I will update the hotel name).

I was very surprised that such a place existed in sleepy Rio-et, well it was there just over a year ago.

Usual thing you find in Bangkok or Pattaya, girls sitting down behind a glass wall and you choose who you want.

I realize this is bumping an old thread, but the Hotel mentioned in Roi Et was the Maithai. Used to have a fishbowl and karaoke on the second floor. New ownership and is now called the M Grand. An OK hotel and has been spruced up a bit. Got on Agoda for $11 a night with breakfast so can't complain. Good location for a night or two. Was with my Isaan girl so didn't hit any of the massage places or Buddy bar. Used to be you could find some freelancers or older local women there.

[Bumholes1]

Where to find them? Anyone know?

[FarmerBoy45]

Thank you Mosquito. Was in Nong Khai a few years back and had no problem finding LT. Wasn't able to play when I was in Udon Thani last time. Can't wait to get back. Figure I'll spend some time both in UT and NK.

Here's what you're looking at.

Day and Night. Barfine 300 Baht (current going rate, but they may try to bump it up a little).

ST Price 1. 5 k to 2 k Baht.

LT (hard to find) Price 3-4 k.

Nutty Park. Same as Above.

Side Bars on Falang Alley. Same as Above, though deals can be had. Depending on the lady.

Streetwalkers. Fugly and I'm being kind.

Selection very limited and vast majority of doable ladies (mid-twenties, 6 and above in looks) don't go with customers.

Ladies drinks 150 baht on average.

Oscars Soapy Massage Open (after being closed for a while) 1200 to Midnight. 1. 6 - 2. 6 k Baht. Selection very limited, best selection being after 7 pm.

Sad to read your report on quantity, quality and price in UT mosquito.

But I'm not surprised given the number of SYT's I'm seeing in the bars around Rawai saying they're from UT, KK, NK, etc. , when asked.

I'm assuming many others have headed to Hua Hin, Bangkok, Pattaya as well given the very large high season tourism influxes there.

After a few years without and living with local expats rates of pay, you can understand the younger ones, and newly starting ones have headed away, or upped their prices.

Have read the "Isaan" thread going back a few years. Planning a trip to Udon Thani soon. What would be a typical or reasonable price for LT with a gal at Day and Night or Nutty Park?

I am in UT and walked around the bars area yesterday night. I felt like less girls and about 20% are young and doable. I have been hearing about beautiful Isaan girls all over the forum and internet and surprised to see the real picture in town. BTW, many 60+ yo foreigners too.

[FarmerBoy45]

Udon is surprisingly expensive. I have paid 2000 baht for ST at Day Night, never done LT.

Thanks Explorer, and all who have given suggestions to my upcoming travels. I'm thinking, if the right opportunity presents itself in Udon Thani.

I will offer 4,000.

Was there for a night last August. The selection in town was very discouraging. I was glad to have brought my own girl there.
