Giotto's Lodge in Bangkok

Good management practices usually dictates that executives don’t fratenize with staff. It is worse when it’s an older more senior exec hitting on one of the younger juniors of the opposite sex.

However, in an attempt to get this thread back on track and to prepare for the arrival of Sir Duni (by the way the front desk informed me he checked in earlier this morning and is probably napping), I made the special effort to get to know one of new and rising stars in the Sports Bar. There are a couple of others on my list but I suspect will not have the time nor energy this trip.

In trying to keep some respect for rules, I’ve masked the real identify of this poor young female, and promised not to post any compromising pictures. But I did convince her to test drive the double jacuzzi in Room 115 (other regulars might have enjoyed this in past stays).

Sir Duniawala, TQM director, arrived at the Lodge.

Red carpets, as usual :) .

[red]All,

I have created a new thread "The Traveler's Kindergarten" and moved around 80 reports (!) over there. Please notice the purpose of that thread:

[URL]http://www.internationalsexguide.info/forum/showpost.php?p=703496&postcount=15[/URL]

My apologies to all of you who replied and got involved in this discussion, and find their reports now moved to this thread.[/red]

[b]I wish to END the discussion in this thread with the following statement:[/b]

Livingstone's main business is the hotel business. Additionally we have two restaurants (Thai Food, Steak House), the Sports Lounge (bar), a pub (full size pool table) and a function room (conferences, events).

The bar-fine business usually contributes to less than 1 % of our turnover, it's really not that interesting. We don't care whether our guests sleep alone, bring in their girlfriends of wives, find girls in other bars or discos or bar-fine girls from the Sports Lounge. All this are private decisions of our customers, and it is not our business to get involved into that.

As many hotels in Bangkok Livingstone's Lodge is guest-friendly. I know from my own experience as a business traveler that men sometimes sleep alone and sometimes not. There is no walk of shame, we consider all that as a part of the individual freedom of each single guest. We expect a reasonable behaviour from everybody - the individual freedom to do whatever a guests wants to do ends where the freedom of other guests or staff is affected. It is that easy.

Livingstone's Lodge is [b]not[/b] a brothel.

So here it is: Take the shuttle bus to the bus terminal, and take the bus no 522. Get off at the first BTS station and take the BTS. 4th stop is the Livingstone's. Whole trip cost 60 BHT. I even meet a girl at the bus and she gave me her number to meet)

[/QUOTE]Darth Luca,

Welcome to the Lodge, and thank you very much for the imformation how to get from the airport to the Lodge with public transport. Is the contact address of a girl included in the price for the ticket :) ?

Looking forward to reading your reports in the Bangkok thread!


Giotto

G, glad to see you finally took some action, and created a kindergarden thread. Or is it kindergarten, in the Motherland?

So let's get back to the important stuff. T1234, didn't you have a cucumber somewhere in that hot tub in 115?

No idea, but yesterday he crashed early, after the Superbowl :) ...


Giotto

This is report No. 3000. Should I open a bottle of champagne?

Or may be rename my handle to "Nibu Giotto" or "Giotto Raphael"?


Giotto

PS: OK, let's forget the 2995 useless ones...and count it as 5 :) !

Hi Giotto,

Are you showing the 6 Nations rugby tournament in the sports bar? I will be in BKK from tomorrow for about a week and hope to be able to watch a little.

Cheers

WTF, my big brothers watching over me :)

Mr. Chairman - are we going to Soi Cowboy with Mr. TQM for live lesbian show tonight? I believe Mrs. Chairman gave her permission for the boys night out.

I'll be down around 8 for dinner and then well rested for the 9:30 pm show.

I think if Mr. VP leaves now, he can make it in time for the second show.

Cheers[/QUOTE]Pheasant,

Sure - if it is not on the screens you ask the staff to change to channel S1 (Super Sports 1, South Africa). That is the Rugby channel!


Giotto

Giotto,

You couldn't get Six Nations rugby in the Sports Bar last March. Tried every channel with one of the staff for the final day's matches of the tournament to no avail. St Patricks Day as well if I remember correctly.

Pheasant, if you can't get them in the Lodge, I watched the games in the Dubliner diagonally across Sukh from Soi 33. At least I think it is the Dubliner, maybe got the name wrong, memory a bit hazy by the time the matches all finished and St Pat's had wound down a bit. I will need to find bars in Phi Phi and Phuket for Scotland's last two games this year. Tough job but somebody has to do it.

[QUOTE=Giotto]Mr. Marketing Director,

I quietly exited the bar at 10 pm to sleep and heard the Mrs. call my name....will make sure to get her approval later today.

Let's plan on going out tonight for a drink and 10 pm show, even if Mr. TQM is busy with his girl....I fly out to see the family early Thursday morning.

So we are going out tonight at 10 p.m.. (i,e) Wednesday night right? I am so confused with the time changes. Let me know if I missed it.

The pool at the Lodge is very bright and sparkling. A job well done. Unfortunately, I don't swim.

The Bar is quite busy and the girls love to eat, drink and be merry and beat the shit out of you in pool. I was beating the Marketing Director till he teamed up with one of the ladies

On another note, a lesson learnt (again), the more beautiful a girl is, the more disappointment you will get. Think I will stick to the ugly ones.

The weather is great here. One more day to go before I fly out Thursday afternoon. If there are any ISG punters here come on over for a drink at the bar at 7 p.m. today, The first round on me. The Marketing Director takes over from there. :)

[/QUOTE]Sonic Bam,

I checked the TV schedule, and SS1 shows the Six Nation tournament. So we should have it on the screens in the Sports Lounge and the rooms.

The next matches are on Saturday (if I checked correctly), Wales vs. Scotland at 9 pm (not sure, I have SA times in the schedule) and France vs. Ireland at 11 pm.
