Bangkok Reports

[MongerHunger]

I typically do this with a backpack and a roller suitcase. If all the elevators are working it is doable. But take into account the heat. I go to Makkasan and change to the subway, works for me but would I do it daily? Certainly not. But during rush hour it saves you 1 to 2 hours. And at night I paid once 230 baht from the airport to Soi cowboy. So it depends.

That's exactly how I traveled the rail. One roller carry on piece and a backpack. I've seen guys at the airport with a cart full of luggage. Looked like they were moving to Thailand. I think that could be a lot to manage during rush hour on a rail line and hope elevators are working. Sometimes people are packed in there like sardines.

Well that depends on how much luggage that you have. I don't suggest taking any type of public transportation anywhere with a bunch luggage and if you know anything about Bangkok just imagine what it would be like taking Public Transportation during Rush Hour / Peak Times with a bunch of luggage.

Have you checked the Airport Link, BTS or MRT rail lines in Bangkok before? When I travel around the World, if there is a Rail Line connecting to a city system I usually take it. European cities are quite convenient and efficient at doing this.

I travel with a large case, which is why I usually take a cab from BKK to SUK. Not worried about the cost, but the traffic around the Asok junction can be a nightmare. I normally stay on SOI 8, but it is far easier with the traffic if you stay on the other side of the main road (Soi 11 area).

The only 350 bhat ST hotel in the vicinity I know is the Atlas Hotel on Soi 7/1. By the way, if anybody knows of any other ST hotels in the Sukhimvit Soi 7 to Soi 19 area (even on the other side of the road), do share by PM. I always like to have options since the Atlas can be full up from time to time. When it is full, I hate to wait or worse trudge to the ST hotels on Soi 4. Enjoy BKK, AR.

Thank you, yes that hotel is right up from the Wood Bar. I had some drinks down the street at the Orange Bar. Friendly Staff.

How easy is the connection at Phaya Thai if you have luggage?

Great question. Sorry I didn't specify. The ST room was at a hotel down Sukhumvit about a 7 minutes walk away.

A convenient way to travel to and from BKK Airport is to use the Airport Rail Link. I used it last night and took it all the way to the last station (Phaya Thai) for only 45 Baht. You will get a token to use for your fare. From there I connected to the BTS Sky Train and headed down Sukhumvit.

Depending on where you're going it might be better to get down at Makkasan station (35 bahts). It directly connects to the MRT station Petchaburi, which is only 1 station away from BTS Asok (17 bahts). The same station is called "Sukhumvit" when using the MRT and Asok when using the BTS.

You get a card for your fare. Easy way to bypass the traffic congestion in the city and saves time and money. I found that the Airport Rail Link stations have free wifi and are clean. Also a good way to interact with the locals.

Are you claiming that the Ruamchitt upstairs from Thermae offers short time rooms for 350 b? My experience is that the short time rooms are charged at 700 b for 2 hours. Or are you referring to another short time hotel? Appreciate the clarification. Thanks, AR.

Great question. Sorry I didn't specify. The ST room was at a hotel down Sukhumvit about a 7 minutes walk away. Does anybody need a Rolex? LOL. Nana BTS Station is nearby to give you a reference point.

The Thermae was closed tonight but there's a lot of women lined up along the sidewalk. Easy pickings. Lowest bid for ST is 2 K Baht. Short time hotel 350 Baht.

I have been to Vovo I couple of times. Not cheap but I did really enjoy the VIP treatment in the office (and hospital).

The secretary setup is to my liking so I was wondering if it was possible to get FS. Does anyone have any experiences with that at Vovo (or other BJ bars)?

Should I talk to the front desk or just ask the provider?

I know there are plenty of massage parlos who have uniform options. But to my knowledge none of them has an office setup with chair and desk which plays an important part in this fantasy.

Any info would be appreciated.

They don't offer FS otherwise they'd advertise it! To be sure for yourself ask the front desk, the worst they can do to you is say no. They do do variety on BJ such as you can ask for Facial and they do oblige from personal experience.

I do like Vovo too, but yes expensive for a BJ bar, nearly double some of the more well known! I would like to see them come up with some new themes at this stage, Nurse, Schoolgirl, secretary etc getting a bit boring after you have tried it. E. g they could do is air-hostess and maybe FS in the toilet the size of a 737 toilet!

I wouldn't say they get too much repeat business. I've visited maybe every 5-6 months.

Funny, it's a particular place that seem to not do line-up's if they are busy, they push you to the tablet, but the mamazen is particularly helpful. During the quiet times like the early afternoon they offer line up straight away but any time I've been there early on in the day there has only been 3-4 girls working, while in the evening it's maybe 10-12 girls.

Due to the holiday some places are serving alcoholic beverages in coffee cups. LOL. I got a Chang beer and a Sangsom. I still love it.
