Bangkok Hotels

Hi Guys,

Will be arriving in Bangkok Feb 28 for 2 weeks. So excited! Have been doing a lot of reading and research of the ISG website lately (what a wealth of information.) Just paid the $20 to Jackson so I can have all the features available.

Will be in Thailand for 2 weeks total traveling with a buddy. Planning a visit to Bangkok, Pattaya and Koh Samui.

Here are my questions:

What's a good way to divide my time between these three places?

Bangkok:

-What is a great hotel in Bangkok approximately $100-200 per night? Budget is not all that important, taxi's and tuk tuk's will be put to good use. Would prefer to be located around Sukhumvit area. A nice pool and balcony in the room are VERY important. Must be girl friendly. (JW Marriott?) Really like to hang in the room a bit and have enough space to relax and chill with good A / C. There will be two of us guys staying there so probably interconecting rooms or a suite are a must so we can have our individual privacy.

Pattaya:

-Again a nice Pool to lay at during the hot days and a balcony in the room are a must. Good A / C too! Also interconnecting rooms or a suite. Girl friendly.

Koh Samui:

Any suggestions? Places to stay with the same prerequisets as above.

All advice and suggestions are welcome!

Thanks!

I can't find a website for Honey Hotel on Suk soi 19, at least not one that lists room rates or even gives an email address to try.

Is anyone aware what their room rates are now, or how I could find out?

I don't need anything fancy, though wouldn't be too thrilled with those garage rooms.

Their email address would be the perfect thing, then I could get it from the horse's mouth.

Thanks!

Is this Marriott. Girl Friendly.

Thanks.

Lord

Premier Inn hotel on Sukhumvit Soi 20 has 800 bhat large rooms, no window or fridge, but A / C, breakfast included. Girl friendly. Good location. Had to kill two jungle roaches, but that was kind of fun, and then they loaned me a large can of spray.

I'm not a Samui lover and would allocate far more time to BKK and Pattaya. I travel to Thailand with a wingman and am always on the lookout for connecting rooms and or two bedroom suites near Sukhumvit. You've got a great budget to work with if you're talking about $100-200 for two rooms for two people. We usually share a 2 bedroom suite at Grand President for $150-190 / night. Suites come with 2 bathrooms, a washer / dryer, and a real kitchen. It's really a 2 bedroom apartment.

With your budget I would suggest Emporium Suites or the Column Bangkok. Both have websites and you can do a search for both. I haven't stayed at either but visited both and they were awesome. Location for both is good also. I would suggest using taxis instead of tuk tuks. They're cheaper, more comfortable, and air conditioned.

I hope others will provide names of placess with connecting rooms. Many of us travel with a wingman and connecting rooms are great.

I'm staying at this hotel right by the airport. I was hoping to get an outcall to the hotel. I'm a little bit younger so if someone sees me with some hot younger Asian chick I couldn't see them making anything out of it. As long as the girl's not wearing booty shorts in the lobby I can't see how anyone would be able to tell. But please, it's my first time in Thailand spare a little help for the noob anyone?

KB[/QUOTE]Are you asking if the hotel is GF or for someone to set you up with a girl/date?

I also would like a girl to come to my hotel (outcall) , if anyone can recommend an agency or even just a reliable escort I'd really appreciate it.

But out in the parking garage there are a few doors, and inside those doors are some very small no frills rooms. It's a bit of a walk of shame going back to a room like that with a girl, not in front of hotel staff and guests but in front of the girl. Having a parking garage as your hallway. I got stuck in one of those once when it was the only room available that night. I don't think the rooms have windows, and the bed goes almost to the opposite wall, the tv just barely fits.

Anyway, I'll email them and find out. But those rooms at 800 baht, due to the rise in the baht, are not a good bargain. This used to be a reasonably priced hotel, and it's not the kind of place that renovates. In its favor it does have a (tiny) pool out in front, which I've never used, and the free breakfast at the attached diner is nice (available all day-perfect for when you're been out all night. Or busy doing something in your room. And wake up in the afternoon).

I see the above listing for Premier Inn, which I'll check out, but if my memory is correct that's on the other side of Asoke, no? And for sure it's on the opposite side of Sukhumvit, I prefer to be on the odd side. When returning to hotel late at night then you're on the correct side to be let out of a taxi. On the even side you have to cross Sukhumvit, and going onto those raised catwalks isn't something I dig doing at 3am. I'm more of a Nana guy than Cowboy, but Honey is so convenient by taxi from there.

But yes, if not Honey Hotel, then something down nearer to Nana could be good too. And I'm trying to spend less on the hotel to leave more for more important expenses. But. It has to be decent. Like if you imagine Miami Hotel: no way. That place is kind of disgusting.

I just looked at the list on another Bangkok naughtyboy website. But slim pickings in the lower range, and also no details at all about what the places are like, what they include, etc.

The guy who posted below mentioned the no-window rooms at Premier. For me that would be a defnite minus. Roaches of course are another big minus.

So if anyone would like to point me in the direction of either a good resource for lower-priced places (and I don't need a pool) , I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks

ps: if I visited in early Feb, would I have any bargaining power to negotiate any discount? Or are these Sukhumvit hotels pretty much sticker-price and that's it?

KB[/QUOTE]I have time on my hands so I called and they told me that there is a 500B joiner fee, :( bummer! As for escorts go to Bangkok 2 night dot com for an unlimited supply of outcall and massage girls. I've always had a great time with the girls from Lisa's Massage, she seems to have a wide selection of submissive girls and they are much cheaper than escorts. Or you could just try the Regent's Spa and Massage services, they may have what you want right there on site.

Actually, so far, I have never stayed in their cheapest rooms (I mentioned them in my previous report because another member was looking for a room in the 700-900 baht price range then), but quite often in their Single Deluxe rooms at 1000 baht/night with refrigerator. Those Single Deluxe rooms are great value IMHO, and if I am not mistaken, they are still available at the same price.

By the way, "on the ground floor" was Honey Hotel Reservation Officer's own term for the location of the cheapest rooms. I found an old email from this person mentioning the various rooms and rates:
[QUOTE=Honey Hotel Reservation Officer]...
Our current room rates:
Every room have air-conditioning, TV, hot - cool with bath tab.
Single Superior 800 BHT/night (on the ground floor & without refrigerator)
Single Superior 900 BHT/night (on the 3rd & without refrigerator)l
Twin room 900 BHT/night (two small beds without refrigerator)
Single Deluxe 1,000 BHT/night (on the 2nd, 3rd & with refrigerator)
Mini suite 1,300 BHT/night (one big bed with the facility)
Suite 1,500 BHT/night (one big bed or two big beds with the facility)
Our room rates have one complementary American Breakfast per room.

I don't know if those are the current rates for each kind of room because this email is more than two years old.

I don't think that you will get a discount there, even as a returning customer. But it never hurts to try getting one.

A joiner fee means that I have to pay the front desk 500B to let the girl come to my room? Wow. That'd be a really awkward transaction LOL. What's the difference between an outcall and a massage girl? Do the provide the same level of service?
