Bangkok Hotels

[QUOTE=Aries3288;1274115]They have a huge bed that is about 9 meters in width which is great if you intend to bring 2-3 girls for a good time.[/QUOTE]This I cannot believe. 9 metres? Impossible. No way in hell any Hotel would have that.

[QUOTE=NicFrenchy;1274549]This I cannot believe. 9 metres? Impossible. No way in hell any Hotel would have that.[/QUOTE]Right you are! Their website shows that each room actually has an 8 foot wide bed. Some guys just LOVE to exaggerate their size.

[QUOTE=Crazy4Thai; 1273645]I've stayed in served apartments and they functioned like a hotel.

Here's what I would do;

Tell them what you plan and see what they say. Consider what it will be like for the guys who get the rooms with a twin bed. Verify that the location is good for you. Someone else can probably tell you more specifically but I think Bangna is pretty far south of the action. I've used the skytrain to get close and still did a 15 minute taxi ride after that. It might not work well for shuttling girls to the big event.

But maybe other serviced apartments closer in to Sukhumvit will have a similar setup.

Let us know.

C4T[/QUOTE]Is Centre Point a better option?

[QUOTE=NicFrenchy;1273986]Huh? You go from the Hansar to S31? Dude, save yourself the Hassle, S31 ain't that great. Stick to the Hansar. If you want to be in the soi 31 Area, I would book a Unique place called the Eugenia. Or completely opposite side of Sukh is the MA DU ZI, funky place a worth a look[/QUOTE]Hello NicFrenchy,

Thanks for the info. I have seen the Eugenia, but I am not shure if this is GF. It looks grate but maybe it is to small to have privacy. Do you have an info on this?

Baiyoke Sky has very wide beds, true "king size", or maybe wider than official "king sizes" (which vary by country), big enough for 3 persons easily, but I am not sure they would allow a guy to have two or more girls there so would somewhat go to waste. I would be quite keen to stay at a good monger friendly Hotel with really wide beds on occasions. Even 8 foot qualifies as really wide as its approx 243 cm ;) May give S31 a try. Its handy location for taking multiple girls from nearby MPs or Cowboy.
The length of beds is also important. I have stayed in places in some countries where had to lie diagonally due to bed being just too short for comfort and I am only 184.

Ok, so a friend of mine asked me if I knew of some hotels that would accept him Staying there for 5 or 6 hours or Overnight without being too "Demanding" in terms of I'd. (No passport, no Credit card.)

I know of Hotel999 in Ekkamai but it's a dump. This guy is looking for a hotel in the 1500 2000 Range.

I think this would be Very interesting to compile a list of "Discreet Hotels" and some Forum members can also benefit?

Group of 4 mongers.

On the verge of booking 3 nights at Omni Towers (around NEP) and 1 night at Grand Millenium (around Comboy).

Not many bad reviews for Omni (4 stars). Figured we could save some and splurge a little for a night.

Or should we stick with all 4 nights at one place since we're already in the heart of the action?

Often it is a rael inprint, and then the slip can be scrapped at check out by paying the possible extras in cash.

If it is processed electronically it is for authorization and if no extra are spent, there will be no trace in the card statement of account. The relevant money is just "blocked" for one week or 10 days.

I am not sure one can escape the I'd demand from hotel reception at check in.

Unless your friend is a"wanted criminal" [. ] he should not fear anything as the passport photocopy stays in the hotel files: they are not going to call home and ask his wife why she didn't join him in BKK.

Maybe a ST hotel might close the eyes for I'd's. But it is still a ST hotel.

Decent hotels might clsoe 3 eyes if you bring 3 girls in, but will not abide on the I'd, I am afraid.

Actually my friend was just asking but I thought it would be good to post here, I am sure some members would benefit from the info

[QUOTE=NicFrenchy;1275638]I know of Hotel999 in Ekkamai but it's a dump.[/QUOTE]This is the place. They rent rooms at like 300 thb for a couple hours. .

Tong Kao Hotel 999. BTS Ekamai.

70/1 Soi 63, Sukhumvit Road, Watthana, Bangkok. 10110.

Tel:023 911 783

What is your friend worried about?

I think the best chance to do this is to go to one of those small hotels, less than 20 rooms, family operated, where the decision-maker is right there at the reception (the mother or father). Give a generous tip and hint that this will not only happen once and more tips are to come.

The question itself was not a silly one as I can imagine lots of people are in a similar situation, so worth debating the topic.

But still I do not understand why he doesn't want the passport to be registered at the hotel (that is pretty safe from a "family point of view") when his passport will anyhow bear the Thailand ENTRY stamp (and for a man in disguise, this is much more dangerous, family-wise)

He has his own reasons and I am not here to dispute them, just assuming it is a family reason, then he should relax and enjoy those ST hours wherever he lays his bones and with whoever he lasy them alongside! .

As seen the credit card issue can be easily overcome.

I even given my company credit card as a guarantee a few times, and they just use it for authorization purposes only, not for billing. Final bill was then paid in cash and the guarantee canceled, no official records back home. Even with my personal one, same story.

thai law requires hotels to report foreign guest details, so you won't have much luck with reputable hotels.

short time hotels (the ones with curtains) are an obvious and straightforward option. there are countless numbers of them in most neighborhoods of bkk. too many to list, i count 4 on my soi alone. usually cost 150-300 baht for 1-2h and 400-800 overnight. a friend stayed in one for 4 days or so, it can be done, but they are generally seedy and not particularly safe. there are some odd/special ones, like the huge peep inn near rachada. picking a specific room may help (they might have a few better ones with newer aircon units).

another option is using a regular mid-range hotel, and providing a dodgy low-quality 5th generation copy of any passport (google for one!) with your picture pasted in. the usual "my passport is at the chinese embassy, but i have a copy" story (if they bother asking). works easily in pattaya, as long as you're staying for a day or three, and i doubt it would be a problem in bangkok either (but not with big chains or for longer stays).

For those looking to avoid the walk of shame at your hotel, the Four Points on Sukhumvit Soi 15 has a back door that lets you in and out on Soi 17, about 100 meters from the Westin. All you need is your room's key card to get through the electronic gate and you're in. Did this with a DIA freebie at 9pm and had no trouble bypassing the front door security guard and the front desk.
